Put your project planning worries to bed.
We believe investing in quality is the best way to do a home makeover—
but we know stressing over budgets, costs, and labor can keep our clients up at night.
That’s why we’re offering Room-by-Room Home Remodel worksheet
that’ll help you do some of the math—and removes most of the guesswork—based on actual data we use.
Home is where you live in your comfy clothes,
and your family’s stuff is constantly strewn about.
Your house holds a lot of life, and that can get messy—
but your home can still be beautiful.
Peaceful. Comfortable. Chic. Functional. It can be all of those things, too.
A beautiful home should be livable—we want you to sit on the couch.
But, if your spaces are adding stress—think cramped bathrooms,
never-enough storage space, and illogical kitchen layouts …
. . . no amount of aesthetic will make your home feel *just* right.
That’s where we come in.

It’s hard to spend your quality time
in a space you don’t truly love.
Whether it’s the look, the functionality, the space—or all of the above—
your house could be holding you back from feeling at home
& making those memories you’ve always dreamt about.
But when you start ticking through the to-do list of running your own remodeling project,
considering construction, design choices, and—for the love of timelines—scheduling …
It’s enough to make you back away slowly without making eye contact.
WE TAKE ALL OF THAT OFF YOUR ALREADY-FULL PLATE
Walk us through it (literally) and point out what’s bugging you about your home
so we can lay a solid foundation for your remodeling project:
purposeful
FUNCTIONALITY
First, we assess the function and purpose of the room based on how you use it and how you want the completed space to look and feel—while allowing you to be hands-off through the process.
intentional
DESIGN
Next, we create a design & installation plan that addresses the pain points of the space and makes it more enjoyable and functional for you to spend time in it.
stress-free
CRAFTSMANSHIP
Then, our team executes your project with the same level of care we’d apply in our own homes—preserving the sanctity of your space and your sanity along the way.

Hiring an interior designer & contractor should feel a lot like finding a friend—you’re about to get to know each other pretty well.
HERE’S WHAT WE’RE LIKE TO WORK WITH
HONEST
From the durability and cost of your materials, to design choices, to any hang ups along the way, we’ll tell you the whole truth at every turn. You hired us for our expertise, & we’ll give it to you straight. Plus, we find this prevents miscommunications. Funny how that works, right?
COMMUNICATIVE
Odds are, you don’t have the time to plan every little detail of your project. (Isn’t that why you’d hire us in the first place?) Since you’ve got better things to keep track of in your life, we’ll be sure to keep in touch with regular updates & progress reports on what’s happening.
PERSONAL
We’re a husband-and-wife duo working with a team of contractors we’ve known for years … so we’re family oriented in most things we do. We’ll treat your home—and your family—as if it were our own, being mindful of how your project impacts your life in the day-to-day.
Bringing Danish hygge and Croatian craftsmanship to homes across the United States
We believe in the elusive “stress-free remodel”—and while no project is without at least some kind of hiccup, we consistently aim to create those easy-going vibes.
We emphasize making quality investments in long-lasting designs while executing every bit of construction & installation with meticulous attention to detail. Nick is a licensed contractor who personally supervises all of our projects, while Gemma leans into her interior design background to calm the chaos of outdated and inefficient spaces.

CLIENT LOVE
This was my first experience working with a contractor and designer and I’m so glad I went with Nick and Gemma.
They discussed every detail before work began and kept me up to date on the progress as it went along.
Gemma took on much of the ordering and follow-up with vendors so I didn’t have to worry about it. Not to say there were not any hiccups along the way (especially when it came to supply chain issues), but they communicated everything and I always felt like I was in the loop.
I was living in the house while the work was being done in the bathrooms,
and Nick was always aware of keeping the work space as clean as possible, especially during demo. I really appreciated that. I am very happy with how the bathrooms turned out and everyone who sees them gives the highest compliments.
