Ready for a fresh, new look?

Karen Menge, ASID — Fri, 16 Dec 2016 14:03:06 +0000

After 15 years or so, my clients called to say they were ready for a fresh new look. Out went the original oriental rugs and in came off white walls and a jute rug. Some of the chairs were painted and all were recovered. New lamps, artwork, tables and accessories combined for a much lighter, […]

“At Home” With A Kitchen Refresh

Linda Perrow — Thu, 20 Oct 2016 08:00:35 +0000

This kitchen needed to be refreshed. After consultations with the client, a design plan was made. Retaining some of the clients favorite design elements (tile floor, wallpaper, and fabric on windows) was part of the plan. Deciding to paint the existing stained wood cabinets was a key element. Eliminating the existing fluorescent light above the island […]

Add Some Spice!!!

If you’re ready to add a bit of color to the exterior of your house, consider a unique color for your front door. These were examples I found in Charleston that really spice up these houses.

Practicing Patience

We’ve all been waiting for years to see the completion of this unique dining room-designer, architect, builder-and especially our client! The custom beams, venetian plaster walls, gray limestone floors, and an open wine alcove all lend the feel of a Tuscan villa. A retractable wall of french doors provide a wonderful way for the elements […]

I will really miss this house!

Karen Menge, ASID — Thu, 02 Jun 2016 05:00:13 +0000

As professional designers, we often work very closely with our clients in building or renovating their homes. We agonize over every decision for wiring, plumbing, wood trim, flooring, and tile as well as the “pretty” ones with fabric, wallpaper, furniture, and paint, as if they were our own. These houses become a part of us, […]

Imagination At Work

Pam Plowden Rawson, ASID — Thu, 19 May 2016 19:41:46 +0000

From the first time I sit down with the architects until the time we deliver the furniture, designing the interior of a house can be years of work. Space planning, plumbing choices, cabinet designs, lighting concerns, finish selections, trim packages….the list goes on and on. All the while, I have to keep a vision of […]

Kitchen Transformation!!!

Karen Menge, ASID — Thu, 28 Apr 2016 12:29:03 +0000

When my clients called me about renovating their kitchen, the challenge was that their kitchen is an interior room with no outside views. Plus, they had a large skylight that had a dated feel to it. At first, they just wanted to paint and replace appliances, but quickly realized we could greatly improve the design of their […]

Books, Built-Ins and Banana Bark

Pam Plowden Rawson, ASID — Thu, 14 Apr 2016 06:30:57 +0000

How do you go about giving a room depth, detail, and architectural interest when it’s just a sheet rock box? Having recently added a keeping room off my kitchen, I had to tackle that dilemma for myself. With the fireplace in my outdoor room just a small courtyard away, I did not want another one […]

“Flipping A House” Takes on New Meaning

Carol Hamilton — Thu, 10 Dec 2015 06:34:00 +0000

The expression “flipping a house” takes on new meaning in this historic home renovation. When our clients purchased this traditional house, they realized very quickly that it was not functional for their lifestyle. They love to cook and entertain, but there was no access to the side yard and every room was dark and closed off from […]
