I love to cook. Which means I pay close attention to kitchens, not just as a designer but as someone who uses one every day.
A kitchen works hard. Prep. Cleanup. Storage. Conversation. Traffic flow. Often the entire rhythm of the household moves through it.
When the layout is awkward, when lighting misses the task areas, when storage is in the wrong place — you feel it constantly. Not in a dramatic way. Just in the small friction of every single day. That is why kitchen design has to begin with how you live.
Who cooks. How often. Where things tend to collect. Whether children gather at the island. Whether guests naturally drift in. Whether mornings feel rushed or evenings feel crowded.
A beautiful kitchen matters. A kitchen that works for you changes daily life.
A standard bath transformed through color, pattern, and contrast.
The rich green tile sets the tone. Drama. Personality. From there, marble-look shower walls, warm wood tones, dark surfaces, and softer metal finishes layer in to create something that feels both fresh and grounded.
There is an Art Deco influence running through the lines and the overall mood. It gives the space a sense of polish and quiet confidence without tipping into formal.
Smaller rooms can hold a lot of design. This one proves it. When the direction is clear from the start, even a modest footprint can feel layered, distinctive, and beautifully finished.

Experience shows up in the quiet things. In the questions asked early. In the details caught before they become problems. In the ability to hold the bigger picture and the finer points at the same time. In knowing that a space has to work for the people living in it, not just look beautiful in a photo.
That is what I bring to this work.
With nearly 30 years in the industry, leadership roles in NKBA and NARI, and a career built on equal parts technical expertise and creative vision, I have always believed that trust is earned through process, care, and consistency.
At Twelve Stones Designs, the goal is to create something that goes beyond the visual. Something more considered, more personal, and more lasting.

This project started with a piece of art the homeowner already loved. That was the starting point. The color. The mood. The energy. Everything else followed from there.
Saturated green. Graphic pattern. Layered finishes. The kind of combinations that make a small room feel intentional rather than safe.
Powder baths do not have to whisper. This one does not.
Rich in color. Full of movement. Designed to stop you the moment you step inside.
I always love when a smaller room is allowed to be a little bolder. Sometimes those spaces are the perfect place to tell a stronger story.
