creating beautiful spaces one room at a time
I had some professional photos taken of our current abode. I’m quite happy with how they turned out. Life is good in Northern California. Gentlemen’s Headquarters Loving how it turned out! Before we had a big door and a deck The BEFORE
This current master bedroom space is the exact opposite of CALM. Your eye has no idea what to look at and thus your brain is MAXIMALLY CONFUSED! It’s ok, we can fix that, right? We got this!

The floor guy is coming today to put the final clear coat on the floor which means tomorrow I can bring in the dining room table! You can’t grasp how monumental this is until you understand that...
