This Myers Park residence involved a major over haul and as a team we addressed the kitchen, desk area, wet bar and laundry space. This growing family of five needed a more functional space that would lend itself to everyday living and entertaining, while making sure to compliment this million dollar property. Our General Contractor and I worked in conjunction with the client’s existing General Contractor in order to create a new layout, install custom cabinetry throughout. include professional appliances and create a warm and welcoming color scheme by incorporating bronze fixtures, a vibrate granite countertop, sea foam wall color and refinished oak floors.

This Dilworth home was originally built in the 1950’s and the kitchen had not been updated since the 1980’s. In this renovation I addressed all the surfaces in the space; cabinets, countertop, backsplash, appliances, and the electrical and plumbing fixtures as well. The rough electrical and rough plumbing required updating as well, so much of it was replaced in order to meet local county code requirements and create an efficient working space.

Dilworth Charlotte, NC Residence- Kitchen Design
Originally this space was nonfunctional and plagued by the restricted foot print. The lack of storage and lack of natural light left the space to be less than desirable. Changing appliance placement, partially removing a cabinet wall to create bar seating and adding pantry storage with a countertop cabinet solved these issues and created an open and welcoming space. As the designer I created the cabinetry layout , worked with the client on material selection and assisted her through installation even though an independent installer was used.

Dilworth Charlotte, NC Residence- Bath Design
A few years prior the client had the opportunity to redo her kitchen space, but felt like the public space was still incomplete. As a team we addressed her guest bath and the niche left of her fire place. The goal with the changes was to crate a relaxed space for the client to come home to daily and for her guests to enjoy, while adding more functional storage. Working with the client to create a tile pattern and additional storage became our primary focus. Wall Tile Accent Tile Vanity
These small changes have really made a big difference in my everyday life. Cannot wait to do my master bath with Cara. -Client

My client and her fianc recently purchased a new home and have decided to redo their home from top to bottom. The kitchen was the most important room for the client so she sought out a designer in order to ensure that the space was well designed. High end cabinetry, professional appliances and having
various types of storage was of great importance for the client. Once completed the kitchen will serve as the hub of the home.

Headquarters- Chicago, IL American Bar and Grill
Headquarters was designed to be located in Chicago, Illinois. The American cuisine restaurant was inspired by both traditional and modern fire stations located all over the world. When attempting this project a concept of who Headquarters was as a company had to be developed first. Headquarters is a place that gives the young consumer a place to enjoy a night out no matter what type of environment they prefer. The first floor features a dance area with stage, group areas, and private couple seating. The second floor lounge offers a laid back atmosphere conducive to small and intimate group gatherings.

Slide’s design was inspired by the city of Kahuku , Honolulu. Though the space is small, the design allows the space to serve as a functional retail space and as a off shore surfboard rental shop. In the main area of the retail space a custom cash wrap is featured. In the secondary area the garage has been converted into the surfboard rental shop, which features a custom logo wall. The vibrant color scheme used in this space mimics the lively atmosphere of Honolulu.

Asthma and Allergy Specialist of Baxter Village Senior Thesis
This undertaking focused on the design of a sustainable asthma and allergy clinic in neighborhood of Baxter Village located in Fort Mill, SC. Incorporating sustainable elements was fundamental to design of this facility. The concept of Asthma and Allergy Specialist was inspired by the fact that the expense of assisted living increases yearly, parents are having children later in life and adults are living longer than ever. The exponential growth in three generational homes are the result of these factors.
