I've been designing kitchens, bathrooms, and basements professionally for paying clients for the past year at Hearthwood — our renovation company. And it completely changed how I see my own home. Not the renovated parts. The decorated parts. The shelves, the vignettes, the room arrangements.
LESSONS COVERED:
👉 Why function always comes before aesthetics (and why most people get this backwards)
👉 The $20 upgrade that makes a $200 dresser look like it cost $600
👉 The lighting mistake that no fixture style can fix
👉 The Rule of Odd Numbers — and when pairs are actually the right call
👉 Why scale is a spatial decision, not a style one
👉 The $30 fix that gave a beautifully renovated kitchen its missing moment
👉 Why matching and recurring are not the same thing
👉 The question I now ask in every room I walk into
👉 Why negative space is a design material — and it's free
👉 The one rule I tell every single Hearthwood client before we start
