Behind The Scenes

On A Photo Shoot

Last week, I went out on a photo shoot at a beautiful home in Walnut Cove, near Asheville, NC. We got so carried away with snapping pictures in the kitchen that I forgot to get a few with my iPhone, which I really like to do. I just can’t explain how much fun taking pictures can be when the lighting is just right. It saves us so much time during the processing phase because, after all, we are just amateurs.

Here is a close-up of the desk we did at Walker Woodworking. Yes, this finish is very detailed and requires precise attention to get it just right, but overall, it adds character to the desk.

This area was small and difficult to photograph. I was able to get a close-up with my iPhone – this antiqued glass is fantastic. It has gold and burnt orange coloring that looks great with the black cabinets.

Here’s a sneak peek of the kitchen – we will have these photos added to our website very soon.  You will be able to view the entire project and all the unique details our custom cabinetry has to offer.

It’s always a treat for us to get out of the office and see the final product of our cabinets in the setting of a beautifully furnished home.  We get to actually enjoy time with the homeowner in their environment, rather than in our office, always working and discussing details.

Benjamin Moore’s 2024 Color of the Year, Blue Nova, brings a bold yet refined energy to home design. This rich, violet-tinged blue strikes a balance between depth and softness, making it ideal for statement walls, cabinetry, or accent pieces. In this post, we explore how Blue Nova can transform a space—pairing beautifully with warm neutrals, natural textures, and both modern and traditional interiors.

Designers have one primary goal for each client: to identify and address design problems in the home. This means listening to their concerns and learning more about their lifestyle needs, so that each solution can be tailored to their specific needs.
