Instagram post 17861588617588607 Can you guess this style?
.
.
.
.
.
Throughout history there have been many different design styles. They have their big moment and sometimes make their way back.
.
One of our favorite styles to work with is mid-century modern. .
It's simple shapes, wood tones and bright colors make it a very fun and casual style.
.
We love working with mid-century modern spaces and giving them an update with a new perspective.
.
So, did you guess right?

.
These clients love to entertain friends and family. They wanted a space where they could host dinner parties with lots of seating, but still have the warm feel of an intimate space.
.
Their love for cool jewel tones was a great starting point for this design. A little glitz and glam adds a hint of fancy without being stuffy. .
Check out this formal dining room's transformation.

Instagram post 17876727769478322 How TEW elevate your space! ✨
.
The addition of curtains can sometimes make or break a space.
.
Including curtains can add warmth to a room, introduce a pop of color, or make an empty space feel instantly like home.
.
Whether it’s a simple white sheer or a funky bold pattern, adding curtains will make your space complete!
.
Don’t be shy, it’s time for your curtain call!

Instagram post 17870006047518999 DIY home design is great, but who has time for that?🛋
.
It's fine when needing to replace a piece of furniture, or change the wall color, in an otherwise finished space. But what about when a space needs an update from top to bottom?
.
That’s the right time to get us involved. We are partnered with exclusive product lines that aren’t offered by the big box and big chain retailers, while just as accessible.
.
More importantly, you get our experience, guidance, and passion along with it. All of it together makes for an enjoyable experience which results in a finished space that is truly unique to you!

Instagram post 17846772961742872 Small changes make a big impact.
.
Every once in a while we get clients that have great pieces to work with.
.
These particular clients already had very stylish furniture, but needed help taking the space to the next level.
.
By focusing on smaller elements and layering the space with drapes, plants and accessories, this breakfast nook took on a different look. It became more personal and lived in.
.
What small details have changed the feel of your home?

Instagram post 17867531422525749 Do you love to travel? ✈️
.
A lot of times when designing a space, we use cultural or travel elements as inspiration.
.
This can be achieved through pattern, textures or just a general vibe.
.
In this case this beautiful vinyl mural resembles a tatreez, a traditional Palestinian embroidery, adding a cultural element without being literal.
.
What place inspires you?

Instagram post 18042839410204566 Don't forget about the stairs; they are always up ⬆️ TEW something 👀
.
Stairs are usually overlooked when updating a home, but they have a big presence since they're usually the first thing you see.
.
It's important to consider how small details can impact a space.
.
This clean, modern railing and bold wallpaper completely changes the feel of this staircase in a new construction home in Apex.
.
So the next time you're going up the stairs ask yourselves, what would you change to elevate the look and feel of your staircase?

.
The variation of height, texture, and color with vases, frames, and funky accessories creates a layered shelf look that we love.
.
The addition of books also gives your shelves texture and fills in empty space.📚
.
Built-ins are perfect for showcasing family interests and meaningful decor! Those tiny details will make you love your shelf décor so much more!

.
This kitchen might be blue, but there's nothing sad about it!
.
As a gathering space in a home, the kitchen should feel bright and inviting. This shade of blue adds a calming vibe, without feeling gloomy. The white countertops and backsplash are a great contrast and brighten up what was once a dark kitchen.
.
What's your favorite shade of blue?

Instagram post 17843769484742847 How do you transform a sweaty smelly gym to a delicious sophisticated cafe ☕🍰?
-
With a lot of hard work!!
-
Even though the before photos look hopeless, our team recognized potential in it from the first consultation visit. A few long months after, working with our clients, a general conractor, and architect, we transformed this space into a cozy and happy spot to relax while sipping on coffee and snacking on your favorite dessert.

Asali Desserts and Cafe is one of Cary's new gems that you just have to try. Make sure to check them out!! 📸 @alliemullin
