Our Mission
What WE BELIEVE...
What guides us as we work
Our Values define what guides us as we work and how we expect to show up for our clients and partners. There are unstated undercurrents of curiosity, honesty, integrity, kindness, and creativity supporting each value. We revisit our Values often to remind us how we deliver on our Vision and Mission, especially when we’re feeling challenged or in the “messy middle” of ambiguity.
01
Connection
We strive for meaningful connection in everything we do - with our clients, between inspiration and ideas, between client and home. When we connect with our clients, there’s ease and enjoyment in our conversations, they feel understood, valued, and at ease. Connection inspires us to thread together their stories with inspiration and new ideas. Connection allows us to create living spaces that flow without friction, and where our clients feel a deep sense of comfort, celebration, and belonging.
02
Experience
The experience our clients have while designing any part of their home should be an enjoyable and exciting time. While the creative process is sometimes messy, and there are things we can’t control, we choose to bring a mindset of curiosity and attitude of partnership through the process to carry us forward in good spirits. The experience our clients have during our working engagement is just important as achieving a result they love.
03
Impact
We are in the business of creating living spaces that families will function in day after day. Our clients will continue experiencing, functioning, and living in our designs long after our work is complete, and long after we leave the scene. So, we take a long view with our work to ensure the impact we're leaving on our clients' lives will be a positive one for years to come.
04
Delight
Home should be a place of comfort. Creating comfort requires intentionality. We take an intentional approach to ensure our client's space flows without friction and where they feel completely at ease and delighted to be there.
