Full-Service Interior Design | Centennial, Castle Pines, Highlands Ranch, Littleton

Before selecting a single finish or piece of furniture, we address how your space functions. Should walls be removed to improve flow? Does the kitchen need to expand? Would reconfiguring adjacent rooms create a more functional primary suite? These fundamental spatial decisions shape everything that follows.

I develop floor plans, design kitchen and bathroom layouts with detailed elevations, plan primary suite additions, and coordinate with structural engineers when walls need to move. This architectural foundation ensures your home works the way you live, not just the way it was originally built.

With a minor in Architecture from Texas Tech and two decades of experience reading construction drawings, I approach design the way an architect would; understanding structure, spatial relationships, and how changes in one area affect the entire home. This expertise proved essential when I successfully navigated historic district approvals for a 2015-2019 Houston project, and it informs every spatial decision I make for South Denver homes.

You'll make hundreds of material decisions during a renovation and new construction project. These selections must work together cohesively while serving functional requirements, fitting your budget, and surviving Colorado's climate. I coordinate all specifications across trades so nothing is decided in isolation.

This includes hardwood, tile, luxury vinyl, and carpet selections; complete cabinetry design with configuration, hardware, and finish specifications; countertop materials from quartzite to concrete; tile for backsplashes, showers, and bathroom floors; paint color coordination throughout; plumbing fixtures; door and cabinet hardware; lighting fixtures both decorative and functional; and window treatment design.

Every material choice affects others. The backsplash must complement the countertop. The cabinet hardware must work with the door style. The flooring transition must make sense between rooms. I manage these relationships so your home feels intentional rather than assembled from disconnected decisions.

Many South Denver homes benefit from custom solutions that address specific storage needs, spatial challenges, and lifestyle requirements. I design these elements and work with skilled craftsmen to execute them precisely.

This includes built-in storage systems and shelving, window seats with storage, mudroom organization and benches, kitchen islands designed for your specific needs, bathroom vanities beyond builder options, fireplace surrounds and mantels, custom closet systems, and architectural millwork and trim details. These aren't catalog selections; they're designed specifically for your space, your storage requirements, and your daily routines.

I source from multiple vendors: custom fabricators, trade-only showrooms, vintage dealers, and Colorado artisans. This creates interiors that feel collected over time, not catalog-ordered. Your home reflects your specific needs, not one showroom's inventory.

Furniture selection ranges from custom upholstery (you approve the fabric, I specify dimensions and construction details) to antique and vintage sourcing for character pieces. I curate art and accessories, select and size rugs, coordinate bedding and textiles, specify table lamps and decorative lighting, and design window treatments from drapes to shades to shutters.

As an independent practice, I'm not tied to furniture stores or specific brands. My recommendations are based solely on your needs and project requirements, not sales quotas. This flexibility allows me to find exactly what works for your space and budget, whether that's a custom-fabricated dining table, a vintage credenza, or a contemporary sofa from a trade-only resource.

You have one point of contact managing all aspects of your project. When issues arise, and they always do, I handle resolution. You don't coordinate between tile installer, cabinet maker, electrician, and furniture delivery; I do.

This includes contractor coordination with regular site meetings, contractor bid review and selection guidance when needed, vendor sourcing and relationship management, order placement and tracking, delivery scheduling and receiving, quality control throughout construction, change order evaluation and management, problem-solving when challenges surface, progress documentation with photos, and installation oversight with final styling.

The value here isn't just convenience. It's expertise applied to the hundreds of decisions and coordination points that occur during construction. I catch problems before they become expensive mistakes. I know when a contractor's proposed solution will compromise the design. I understand which delays matter and which don't. This oversight saves both time and money while ensuring the final result matches the design vision.
