Design Strategy That Protects Your Renovation Investment
Your home is your greatest investment. Make it work for you, not against you.
Your Home is your greatest investment
Most $100K+ renovations encounter expensive setbacks not because of poor construction but because of insufficient strategic planning. Without expert design guidance before construction begins:
Kitchen layouts fail to support your family's daily routines and workflow
Storage solutions become afterthoughts rather than integrated design elements
Open-concept spaces lack the thoughtful definition that creates both connection and privacy
Last-minute decisions cascade into change orders that inflate budgets by 15-20%
Strategic design intervention before construction begins prevents these costly mistakes.

Engineering-Informed Design That Maximizes Function and Beauty
Unlike traditional decorators, I approach your renovation with both aesthetic vision and technical precision. My engineering background allows me to:
Identify structural opportunities most designers miss
Create spaces that function with mechanical efficiency while feeling effortlessly beautiful
Optimize layouts based on both spatial dynamics and your family's actual movement patterns
Make investment recommendations that balance immediate impact with long-term value
This integrated approach ensures your renovation delivers both the feeling and function you desire.

Schedule Your
Design Strategy Session
This session IS for you if:
You're investing $100K+ in a renovation or new build
You're a busy professional or business owner who wants expert guidance without committing to full-service design
You have an architect or contractor but want to ensure your home is both functional and beautiful
You want to avoid expensive last-minute design mistakes that could delay your project
You're using strategic financing (HELOC, home equity loan, or construction loan) and want to invest wisely
This session IS NOT for you if:
Your project budget is under $35K
You need detailed furniture, materials, or finish selections. We offer full-service design to work on these details.
You already have a full-service designer guiding your project
Common Questions About the Design Strategy Session
How is this different from hiring a full-service designer?
The Design Strategy Session is a focused consultation that provides clear direction without the commitment of full-service design. It's ideal for homeowners who want expert guidance on major decisions but may be working with their own contractor or architect for implementation.
What if I decide I want more support after our session?
Many clients choose to continue with full-service design after experiencing the value of strategic planning.
How far in advance should I book this session?
For maximum impact, schedule your Design Strategy Session 1-3 months before finalizing construction plans. This timing allows for thoughtful integration of our recommendations before commitments are made.
