about us
and how we got here...
Our focus used to be implementing beautiful homes for our work hard, play hard clients in urban Chicago. Our goal was to help our clients achieve a sense of work life balance by giving them a beautiful and calming respite to come home to so they could fully recharge & invest in themselves.
Then Covid... everyone's priorities changed... and the work hard play hard attitude shifted for many to... "life is too short, I want to enjoy every second that I possibly can." And that happened for us too. Formerly Lydy Designs, we moved our studio from Chicago to the lowcountry, because we too, felt that life suddenly felt too short. And we couldn't be happier with the change. We've also been lucky enough to continue working with so many of our wonderful (and new) clients in the midwest while meeting new and wonderful clients here in the lowcountry.
