Our charming Charleston home makeover


Although my formal training lies in print and digital design, my interests stretch further. This year, my husband and I championed a home renovation. I designed the space and he put the technical details into CAD – which helped us envision the space and made working with local and online retailers during COVID a breeze. I selected cabinet styles along with floor, countertop, lighting and all finishes and furniture choices. We hired a local team, O’Connor Homes, to take care of the construction (we <3 them!) – and now our home has been transformed into our dream abode.
