How I Help

You don’t hire a designer because things are going perfectly. You hire one because something feels off — the layout isn’t working, the exterior lacks impact, finishes feel disconnected, or you’re worried about making an expensive mistake.

That’s where I come in.

I Help You Solve:

1: Unclear Direction

When you know a property needs improvement but aren’t sure what will actually move the needle, I create a clear, strategic plan — from floor plan optimization to cohesive finish selections.

2: Layouts That Limit Value

I refine flow and functionality so your spaces feel intuitive, livable, and market-ready — helping you capture higher rents, stronger offers, or faster lease-ups.

3: Costly Decision Fatigue

Instead of second-guessing materials, colors, or layouts, you get confident, data-backed recommendations that align with your target market and investment goals.

4: Underperforming Exteriors & Amenities

If curb appeal or common areas feel dated or forgettable, I reposition them to create pride, presence, and perceived value.

The Outcomes You Can Expect

  • Smarter floor plans that maximize livable space

  • Cohesive, market-aligned finishes that attract the right buyer or tenant

  • Renovation plans that reduce costly change orders

  • Stronger first impressions that increase perceived value

  • Properties that lease faster, sell with confidence, and perform better

Design isn’t just about how a space looks — it’s about how it works, how it feels, and how it performs financially.

Process

How Do We Work?

Design should increase value — not just look good. My process is built to protect your investment, eliminate guesswork, and position your property to perform.

1: Align on Goals

We start with a focused conversation about your vision, timeline, and objectives — whether that’s improving function and flow or increasing rent, resale value, or curb appeal.

2: Create the Strategy

Next, we identify where design will have the greatest impact. This may include layout optimization, exterior refinements, or cohesive finish selections — all aligned with your target market and budget.

3: Develop & Refine

You’ll receive a clear design direction to review. We refine it together, then finalize a complete, detailed plan that reduces guesswork and supports smooth execution.

4: Move Forward with Confidence

With a strategic design in place, you can execute without second-guessing — minimizing costly revisions and maximizing both experience and value.

Process

How Do We Work?

Here’s a quick look at how we bring your space to life

1: Discovery & Consultation

We start with a one-on-one conversation to understand your style, needs, and goals for the space. This helps us align on vision and budget before moving forward.

2: Design & Planning

Next, we create a custom design plan — complete with mood boards, color palettes, layouts, and material selections — so you can visualize every detail before implementation.

3: Execution & Styling

Once the design is approved, we bring it all to life. From coordinating with contractors to adding the final decorative touches, we handle it all to ensure a stunning result.

"Fantastic experience with Tina! She is not only very talented, she worked hard transforming our inspo photos and feedback to create star worthy interiors. She was very communicative and thoughtful with our design, and fixed many weird things that the builder had done.

Being able to work with someone like Tina is EXACTLY why you hire a designer. We loved it so much we hired her to start on another project of ours. The result was so much better than I imagined. So happy! "

Carrolyn H

"Working with Tina has been an absolute pleasure. She helped bring our warehouse dream home to life by truly understanding our vision and translating it into a beautiful, functional design in real life. Her eye for design is incredible, but what really sets her apart is her deep knowledge of home building, remodeling, and the entire design process from start to finish.

Tina is kind, patient, and a genuine joy to work with – the type of designer who makes what can be a stressful process feel seamless and enjoyable. She knows the ins and outs of construction and design so well, and it shows in every detail. I couldn’t recommend her more highly! Tina will be my forever go-to designer! "
