Shades of White
Austin, Texas

The homeowners are a married couple with a primary residence in Dallas. The couple’s adult children had decided to settle in Austin. As recent empty nesters with several upcoming significant life events, our clients wanted a home to be close to their children, accommodate their growing family, entertain guests and host family celebrations.
In order to have the home ready to host events, we were given a 9-week project timeline from initial design meeting to move-in. We took a thoughtful and methodical approach and relied on our expertise, partnerships, effective collaboration and specialized resources to leverage our capabilities.
We designed and fabricated custom lighting, rugs and furniture to elevate the space and act as a strong foundation for each room. We combined carefully curated pieces from high-end showrooms and vintage marketplaces from around the country, then reupholstered, refinished and repurposed each of the pieces to personalize and connect them to the design aesthetic. We layered in the client’s art from their existing collection to reflect their personality. The home was outfitted with entirely new accessories from functional to decorative. Everything was designed to represent the client’s style with high regard for comfort, form and function.
At the finest level of living, quality all comes down to the details. Perfecting alignments, ensuring quality of construction is executed beautifully and proper attention to comfort results in both beautiful spaces and living.
