ABOUT US

We are a deeply collaborative interior architecture and design studio focused on creating refined innovation for both residential and commercial projects.

Led by Karina Marshall — with past lives lived in design innovation and foresight strategy — the studio cultivates a futurist approach to interiors. Particularly as Eichler & MCM specialists, we aim to bridge the critical gap between maintaining the integrity of classic modernism while designing for today and tomorrow.

Armed with an extensive and ever-expanding materials library, roster of expert drafters, engineers, contractors, custom fabricators, and global manufacturers, we distill our design experience into a bespoke, personalized practice. 

Our work is highly personal for us — each project is a reflection of a deeply trusting relationships with our clients that live far beyond project completion.

DESIGN PROCESS

  • Collage of interior home design images featuring wood and natural materials, including a modern bathroom with a stone vanity, a kitchen with wooden cabinets, a brick fireplace, and various wood-paneled walls and furniture.

    PROJECT KICKOFF

    The process begins with an immersive deep dive at the project site to understand client needs, wants, and aesthetic preferences. This conversation creates clarity and establishes the foundation for the design.

  • Architectural floor plan of a house renovation project titled 'Sunset Remodel'. Features include detailed layout of interior rooms, garage, outdoor patio, and landscaping with annotations, symbols, and a legend for finishes and materials. Project information and designer details are on the right side.

    SCHEMATIC DESIGN

    We develop several interior architecture floor plans options. Where appropriate, walls shift, openings are reconsidered, circulation is clarified, and spatial relationships are strengthened. The goal is to align on a floor plan that better utilizes the square footage and create a more intentional flow.

  • Modern kitchen with wooden cabinets, green marble countertops, and a built-in oven. Large window with a view of trees outside.

    INTERIOR CONCEPT

    We present several concepts for the overall look and feel of the space based on the intersection of our design philosophy and style with our client’s aesthetic preferences. Once aligned, that shared vision becomes the north star guiding all material and design decisions.

  • Group of five people standing and talking at a construction site with a partially built house behind them.

    DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

    Elevations, cabinetry, fixtures, finishes, and key interior moments are refined in detail. The design is translated into a comprehensive interior drawing set that clearly communicates the vision and is ready for construction.

  • PERMITTING

    Permit drawings are prepared and submitted, with revisions and coordination managed through approval.

  • MATERIAL SOURCING

    Selections are organized into a detailed materials and cost schedule. Procurement and delivery are tracked to maintain continuity from specification to installation.

  • CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION

    We remain actively involved on site, coordinating with the contractor and trades to ensure the design is executed successfully as intended.
