An ideal space brings joy to the people who experience it.

I actively strive not to adhere to one design style, one aesthetic preference, or one architectural concept. You will not hear me describe my work as crisp or relaxed, muted or colorful, open or restrained. The only consistency that I want in my finished work is that it is tailored for my clients.

My approach to a project, however, is consistent with all clients and is based on three key principles:

  1. Aesthetic and function have equal value.
    Most people, at some point, sacrifice either the look or the practicality of a decision in order to find a solution. If an idea does not adhere to the aesthetic preference and deliver the functional requirement, we find a different option.

  2. A space must be personal.
    My role is to bring your vision to life, even if you cannot see it yet, and I spend a significant amount of time meeting with clients and asking questions at the outset in order to be able to deliver a personal result.

  3. All decisions should follow a proportionate spend.
    Time, energy, and money: Each one of these items should be spent in proportion to what a space and a decision are worth to you directly. These values are reviewed throughout the process. No amount of time, energy, or money is objectively right or wrong. The answers are always subjective.
