What we do

  • Full-service interior design

    Space planning, interior architecture, finishes, lighting, furnishings, art and accessories, composed as one vision and managed hands-on from the first walkthrough to the final installation.

  • New construction

    We join your architect and builder early to refine plans, millwork, cabinetry, fixtures and finish schedules, so the interiors and the architecture are designed as one.

  • Renovation

    Kitchens, baths and whole-home renovations that respect a home's bones while bringing it up to the way you live now, with clear guidance through contractors, budgets and timelines.

  • Furnishing and styling

    Custom and to-the-trade furnishings, window treatments, rugs, lighting and art, sourced, ordered, tracked and installed so that move-in day feels finished.

  • Second and vacation homes

    Mountain, lake and coastal homes, designed from afar and delivered turnkey so the house is ready the day you arrive.

  • Builder and spec homes

    Model and speculative homes furnished to show a way of living, the approach behind our Silverleaf Spec residence.

Every service is led personally by the principals. Lauren Rautbord has more than 30 years of interior design experience and Kendra Vaughn has been with the studio since 2018; together they keep the studio deliberately small so each home receives their direct attention.

How we work

  1. Discovery

    We begin by listening: how you live, what you love and how the home should feel, with an honest conversation about scope, investment and timing.

  2. Concept and space planning

    Floor plans, furniture layouts and a design direction take shape, with palettes and materials that answer the architecture and its views.

  3. Design development

    Finishes, fixtures, lighting, upholstery, fabrics and art are selected and refined together, and presented for your approval.

  4. Procurement and project management

    The studio orders, tracks and receives every piece and works alongside your architect, builder and trades on site.

  5. Installation

    Furniture is placed, art hung and beds dressed, so you walk into a home that is complete, calm and entirely yours.
