Episode 42: We're Back with A New Look!

Episode 43: Our New Design Studio is Coming Soon!

We are so excited to share what's coming your way this February! Katie and Ashley recently got an exclusive sneak peek of our brand new design studio, and let me tell you—this space is going to completely transform how you experience the design process. Today, we're pulling back the curtain on everything that's new, and trust us, you're going to want to hear this. Kitchen Displays: Let's start in the heart of the home—the kitchen. We've expanded our kitchen displays in a major way. You'll now be able to explore multiple kitchens at different investment levels, so whether you're dreaming big or working with a specific budget, you can see exactly what's possible for you. We're also showcasing different ceiling heights because we know that vertical space completely changes the feel of a kitchen. And here's something we're really excited about—we now have a dedicated butler's pantry area. This gives you the chance to walk through and understand how this hardworking space can actually function in your daily life, not just look pretty in a photo. We've also added new island options throughout the displays. Islands are such a crucial part of kitchen functionality, and now you can actually walk around them, visualize workflow, and see which configuration works best for how your family lives. Lighting: Lighting can make or break a space, and we've gone all out here. Our auxiliary kitchen galleries feature brand new pendant light options, plus we have lighting displays throughout the studio so you can see how different fixtures create different moods and aesthetics. Seeing lighting installed and lit up in person is completely different from looking at it in a catalog or online. Flooring: Flooring is one of those selections that's really hard to visualize from a small sample chip. That's why we've created extensive flooring displays with various materials, styles, and colors installed in actual room settings. You'll be able to see how different flooring looks in context, how it plays with cabinetry and wall colors, and how it feels underfoot. Fireplace Display: We also have a stunning new fireplace display that showcases different options and aesthetics. Whether you're going modern and sleek or traditional and cozy, you'll be able to see the different directions you can take this focal point in your home. Exterior Gallery: Here's something really special—we now have an exterior gallery with natural lighting. This is huge because exterior materials look completely different under artificial light versus actual sunlight. You'll be able to see your siding, stone, and trim options in conditions that mimic how they'll actually appear on your home. We've even included an exterior lighting installation so you can understand how your home will look at night with landscape and architectural lighting. Presentation Room: And finally, one of our favorite additions—a dedicated presentation room. This is your space to view all of your samples together in one place. No more trying to remember what that countertop looked like when you're looking at cabinet samples in a different room. Everything comes together here so you can see how your entire home plays together, how colors coordinate, how textures complement each other. It takes so much of the guesswork and anxiety out of the selection process. Our new design studio opens in February 2026, and we cannot wait to welcome you in. This isn't just about having more options—it's about giving you the tools and environment to make confident decisions about your home. We'll see you soon! Ready to experience the new design studio for yourself? Stay tuned for our grand opening in February 2026.
