FAQ

Vacation & Second Home Design, answered

Can you design my second home if I live in another state or country?

Yes. Most second-home clients approve the design remotely. We handle procurement, receiving and installation locally and visit the site at key milestones.

What finishes work best in a home that sits empty for months?

Sealed stone, porcelain, solid-wood or engineered floors, performance fabrics and UV-stable window treatments, plus fixtures that tolerate long periods without use.

Do you stock kitchenware, linens and accessories?

Yes, if you want it. A move-in-ready handover can include bedding, towels, tabletop, kitchenware, outdoor furniture and art.

Can you design a second home that we also rent out?

Yes. We plan durable layouts, lockable owner storage and a full inventory list so the home works for rental guests and for you.
