Calling all future home renovators! 

Every month, we’ll be sharing mood boards to help inspire your next renovation project. 

So, pull up a seat, grab a delicious cup of coffee (or a glass of your favorite chilled pinot), and let your imagination take the wheel. 

This is a space for dreaming—and with a little guidance—eventually doing. 

Classic Modern

Do you love neutrals—but also crave a pop of color or an eye-catching pattern? This style blends classic and modern elements to create a timeless appeal that still feels fresh and unique. It’s the perfect blend of elegance, minimalism, and modern details that make a space feel special.

Modern Farmhouse

When you walk into a modern farmhouse kitchen, it can feel like the room is giving you a warm hug. Reclaimed woods paired with apron front sinks, vintage elements, and a neutral color palette define this classic yet truly comfortable style. Add a playful wall and fabric patterns to make the space uniquely yours!

Steeped in Tradition

Traditional doesn’t have to be, well, traditional! Far from old-fashioned, this style is inspired by historical design elements from around the globe. If you love classic art, antiques, and symmetry, traditional décor may be for you! Start with neutral walls then add pops of dark, warm colors to create a look that’s uniquely your own. Take your traditional kitchen down a vintage road with a mix of vibrant and pastel colors, chrome elements and playful patterns.

Mid-Century Modern

Freshen up your space with a nod to the futuristic stylings of the 1960s! The mid-century modern look is all about clean lines, minimalism, and a neutral color palette. If you like this style, you may be drawn to an open floor plan, geometric shapes, and the incorporation of brass fixtures and stained wood in beautiful shades.

Modern

Daydreaming about a clutter-free space? Love natural materials AND natural light? Modern design may be the perfect choice for you! This Scandinavian-influenced style brings in a monochromatic color palette (whites, blacks, grays, and pastels), clean lines, and minimalistic décor to create a calming, functional experience that never feels outdated.
