Our Design Philosophy
Each home has a story, a reason, and methods for the way it was built. Architectural style can be muddied or misidentified, and so, the story of the home never unfolds.

Each home has a story, a reason, and methods for the way it was built. Architectural style can be muddied or misidentified, and so, the story of the home never unfolds. Interior styles without clarity focus instead on trendiness and can put a homeowner in perpetual renovation cycle trying to keep up with the latest trends rather than investing in making their house feel like their home.
Our design philosophy is to understand the story of you and your home, its underlying architectural style and influences and use that as a basis to build your personal style. Meeting you, your family and seeing the things that you love, those that inspire and influence you, will help to design a space that is representative of you for the long-term. Design itself doesn’t have to be constantly changing to be good. In fact, it is our belief that classic design is timeless.

Carolyn is the daughter of a graphic design artist and lover of modern architecture. As a child, she watched her parents dream about space and then build it, traipsing across the country to walk inside various Frank Lloyd Wright House Museums with her family. While in college, she found her love of historic architecture when she spent 7 months studying abroad in Galway, Ireland and traveling through France and Italy. As an adult, she’s spent the better part of a decade restoring a 125 year-old Colonial Revival style home in East Springfield with her husband Mac.
Carolyn graduated in 2006 from St. Olaf College with a BA in Interdisciplinary Fine Arts & American Studies. In 2018 she received her Masters from Aquinas Institute of Theology. She has built her career in Design, Marketing, Healthcare & Real Estate.
