You're looking around your home and you realize it needs some updating. Do you redesign your space and get some new furniture to make it feel right to you, or perhaps some remodeling to update the fireplace? Or maybe open up that wall to make the room larger? Or do...
Every house has it's "BEFORE" shots. It is always such a privilege to take existing spaces...especially something as special as a family's home...and make them wonderful for everyone. The photos of the home below are no exception... The goal? Almost a Colorado, French feel with a slight feminine touch. Master Bedroom...
A home in Kansas City transforms during the remodeling process from dark to gorgeous with interior designers Jill Tran and Carmen Thomas of Tran + Thomas Design Studio.
Adding glamour and solving design problems is what we do best. One of our recently completed living rooms had both in spades. Like many of our fabulous clients, we had worked with this family on a few other projects in their home. With the basement, kitchen and hearth room complete,...
Ever get stuck with what to do with a plain white room? What about a living or family room? This special home in Kansas City's Roeland Park area needed some attention to just that...a blank slate. The homeowners were short on ideas. They wanted a comfy space with great seating,...
Thank you to KC Magazine for our newest Design Excellence Awards! This living room remodel was one of our winners. Not only do we love the "After" (it is just what the homeowners were wanting!), but it is such a far cry from the "Before." "BEFORE" After discovering the style that our client...
It was so fun to get a shout from KC Business Magazine to help them with a project. They asked us to redesign the an existing "Ugly Office" in the back of a Relax the Back store in Overland Park, KS for the owner/manager. You can see the "BEFORE" shots here...
We love this cute and simple remodel we did. The room started out so blank and standard. The couple wanted to liven it up, keep it comfy, gain some storage and get the layout of the room to be smooth. "BEFORE" We chose to create a cozy and warm space with some...
"Sexy." That was the direction I was asked to take the design of this bath remodel (See the "BEFORE" below). "Clean, white, bright, and some bling!" is what she asked for. It was to have great storage and some unusual elements. Our aim was clear. Once again, Clay Lyon of Lyon...
As an interior designer in Kansas City, it is so wonderful to have our work in print. Thank you, Shawnee Magazine. I have some details on the living room below...where we began and how the design became magazine ready. If you want to read more on this home, click here SEE THE "BEFORE"...
WHAT, OH WHAT, HAD THE CLIENT BEEN DREAMING OF? There is nothing more fabulous than someone who know what kind of bedroom they want...a gorgeous one! This client loves black high contrasts in color. Like a classic car, the colors were to be black and silver. We needed slick design with...
As an interior designer in Kansas City, it is so humbling to have our firm's work recognized. Thank you, KC Magazine once again. To follow is our bronze in the Living/Dining Room category. These wonderful clients had a living room space with an awkward floor plan. It was a long room with...
There is nothing more fun to me than New York City. The lights, the people, the design. It is so exciting! These NYC clients of ours wanted a fun and funky space. Greens, blues and black…almost a mod look. They needed a place other than the master bedroom for guest to...

Generally, the Master Bedroom is the last room in the house to get any attention and this client's home was no exception. All of the furniture that hadn't found a special place and the oddball pieces made their way here. It was time for a change. She wanted it to be...
