After settling into a midcentury home, our clients reached out in search of a designer to transform their living spaces to be "intentionally joyful". As fans of bohemian design, the clients embrace color and pattern, and wanted to feature their art, indoor plant collection, and family history, including travels to the wife's native South Africa.

We added custom built-ins, colorful wallpaper, a mix of vintage and new furniture, and personal touches throughout. An existing skylight above the living room became the perfect spot for a "green chandelier" of our clients’ hanging plants.

The resulting space exudes joy, even on cloudy Pacific Northwest days.
