philosophy _
s h e d + d re-visits residential design and re-imagines an approach that is relevant to essential living on today’s terms.
it is a blank canvas _ starting anew, rather than placing yet another flimsy overlay on outdated design thinking…designing with intent for intentional living.
It is a refuge from the noise, a time to re-calibrate _ living pared down to its essence _ not so much a case of less is more, but rather a desire to do more with less.
it is integrity in its contribution to the ongoing design discourse of our beautiful land _ an honesty in the materials we live with and the art of memorable space making – together, they will forever shape our psyche.
It is a deep breath at a time we need it most.
_ style is to see beauty in simple things
values _

essentially driven by function but ever cogniscent of the unwritten rules that give us pause for thought as we subconsciously find an understated beauty that sits comfortably with us
