As the pandemic rages on, many of us continue to work from home while the kids are doing virtual school. We have compiled images of some amazing desks that will make our work time at home more fun and efficient. From classic to sculptural, rustic to sleek, these desks are...
Kitchen and bathroom remodels are some of our favorite projects at Tran + Thomas. Not only do they add value to your home, but a well-done remodel will solve problems and enhance your day-to-day living. There is no one cookie cutter approach to kitchen design; each reflects the particular needs...
You're looking around your home and you realize it needs some updating. Do you redesign your space and get some new furniture to make it feel right to you, or perhaps some remodeling to update the fireplace? Or maybe open up that wall to make the room larger? Or do...
In August, one of our projects was featured in Spaces Kansas City. We’re very proud of this particular renovation and would like to share more about it with you. Our client was looking for a bathroom with a sexy vibe. They wanted it to be clean, bright and white. Their original...
"Sexy." That was the direction I was asked to take the design of this bath remodel (See the "BEFORE" below). "Clean, white, bright, and some bling!" is what she asked for. It was to have great storage and some unusual elements. Our aim was clear. Once again, Clay Lyon of Lyon...
WHAT, OH WHAT, HAD THE CLIENT BEEN DREAMING OF? There is nothing more fabulous than someone who know what kind of bedroom they want...a gorgeous one! This client loves black high contrasts in color. Like a classic car, the colors were to be black and silver. We needed slick design with...
There is nothing I love more than fabulous art. I am addicted to all kinds and love depth and meaning in them…pieces that make you think or feel. I prefer to be moved on the left and right side of my brain to think, “Why?” and then care about the...

Anyone who knows me, knows I love art. I don't know what it is, but it stirs me all up. I have painted many pieces myself and loved it so. Because of that when I study a piece, I enjoy thinking about the artist and how they felt in...
There is nothing more fun to me than New York City. The lights, the people, the design. It is so exciting! These NYC clients of ours wanted a fun and funky space. Greens, blues and black…almost a mod look. They needed a place other than the master bedroom for guest to...

Being a designer, one of the things I crave in life is creativity, inspiration and joy from looking at beauty, art and design. You will find I talk quite a bit about art and will go to a museum any time I can...though that never seems to be near as...
People ask me all the time about how to select art for their home. I have one answer, it must "move" you! I am not a big believer that art must "match" a room. One thing I love in a great interior design, is when art stands on it's own. It...
I received some wonderful new fabrics in my studio today and had fun putting them in groups. Can't decide my favorites...
