Design Craft Workshop

What a year it has been.

It wasn’t a busy year for me in terms of content as you probably noticed. With our third kid arriving during the summer and the business growing, there wasn’t much time for anything else. However, the feeling of not having to chase content for content's sake really felt good. I didn’t want to post content just to get something out there and not create something meaningful or helpful. I was able to focus on the family and find clarity in the growth of the business. I did post stories of projects I’ve been working on and it was great connecting to those who follow along the way. Overall it was a much needed break from social media and I’m so grateful for those who still chimed in here and there on the stories. And I'm super thankful for the new and old clients who supported my work throughout the year. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and a happy new year! See you in 2025!

Another one done 🙌🏻

The client wanted to fill in the empty area beside the fireplace. So I added some cabinetry and white oak floating shelves to tie in some of the other white oak features in the kitchen and accent wall. A few strips of LED lights remotely controlled gives the space a nice warm glow in the evening. Excited to see how it all comes together once the painters finish painting and all the furniture is in.

⬅️Before and After➡️

So glad that the living room is done just in time for Advent and I just can't get enough of this space! We wanted a space that was cozy, welcoming and relaxing. We also wanted a place that highlighted things that were important to us as a family and at the same time provided ample room for storage to keep the space tidy. I think we achieved it.

I honestly never thought I would like arches but I'm so glad we did. It highlights the main features which are the section for our home altar and a section for our family photos. I didn't want to over-emphasize the TV so LED strips were installed only in the arch areas. Because we have low ceilings here my wife was concerned that having such a huge entertainment center cause the space to feel short and claustrophobic. So I played with the scale and proportion and wanted the base area to visually look solid and heavier than the top portion. I opted for a thicker countertop profile and seamless white oak paneling and kept the base well below standard countertop height. Then I provided more void or open spaces above. This definitely worked out since the first thing my wife noticed was how open it felt 👍🏻😮‍💨
