restorations with a sense of rhythm
traditional houses on a non-traditional path
These aren’t the easy houses.
They’re the ones with good bones, a bad reputation, and a juicy tale worth telling at heart of each one. We’re talking pioneering Black fashion designers, hidden bank ledgers, sisterhood of the traveling crawfoot tub, and even someone liquefying through the floor. You read that right.
My job is part restoration specialist, part writerly creative, part craftsman-editor. Below are a few of those stories: what almost got torn out, what got fought for, and what the house looked like once it finally made sense.
Tales of tragedy, comedy, and because of determination… revival.

Once, I worked in a world where people looked for reasons to say no. Now, my clients greet me with curiosity and joy. Design has taught me there’s never just one right answer—only many paths toward beauty and belonging. Don’t fear your choices. Trust your intuition, your timing, your story. That’s how we restore not just old houses—but ourselves.
