Client Brief

A young family purchased an aging home, seeking to transform it into their ideal living space. With a limited budget, we were tasked with refreshing the property while preserving its charm and functionality. The design approach focused on creating a balance between modern aesthetics and timeless elements.One of the standout features was the use of beige ceilings paired with white walls, a subtle yet striking contrast that modernized the space while complementing the home’s traditional character. This palette served as a neutral canvas, allowing us to introduce texture and warmth through carefully curated décor and vintage furnishings.

A significant portion of the budget was allocated to up-cycling existing pieces. Vintage furniture was reimagined with updated finishes, upholstery, and hardware, blending old-world craftsmanship with contemporary style. This not only reduced costs but also gave the home a unique, personalized feel.Strategic updates included refreshing the kitchen and living spaces with affordable yet impactful improvements like lighting fixtures, textiles, and greenery. These small details elevated the overall design, making the space feel cohesive and welcoming. The result is a home that tells a story—a thoughtful blend of practicality, creativity, and style. Despite the constraints, the transformation exceeded expectations, delivering a fresh start for this young family without compromising on character or charm.
