Bright as Yellow

This whole-home renovation was all about saying goodbye to the brown and bringing in the color and personality of our client's South American roots. We reimagined the kitchen, dining room, laundry, four bathrooms and living spaces, transforming a former den into a creative maker space and playroom. Custom cabinetry and millwork throughout added function and character, while playful patterns, colorful tile and layered materials brought the home to life. Our client's love of yellow became a recurring theme, inspiring unexpected combinations and moments of bold color balanced with quieter details. The result is a joyful, collected home that feels personal, sophisticated and full of energy.
