Price transparency. No hidden at Encore.
As the Lowcountry shifts into its most colorful season, we’re embracing the spirit of renewal. Twelve years after gracing our cover, Carrie Morey of Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit welcomes readers back into her life, this time at a different home. Her renovated Mount Pleasant residence reflects the same warmth, personality, and creativity that have made her beloved brand a Southern staple and kept us all craving more.
Our annual bathroom guide showcases more than 70 local and beautiful and functional spaces designed for both relaxation and everyday living. For a room used every day, these local home professionals have truly outdone themselves with next-level design.
In addition, our wallpaper feature explores how pattern and texture are making a striking return to interiors, with designers using everything from soft botanicals to dramatic prints, transforming walls into works of art. If the walls weren't speaking to you before, they certainly are now.
With Mother’s Day right around the corner, it’s the perfect time to plan a trip to the spa. We recently visited the historic carriage house at Wentworth Mansion that has been transformed into the newest location of Woodhouse Spa, where the thoughtfully restored space now offers a calm setting for relaxation.
After joining this company last year, I want to take a moment to properly introduce myself. I am Courtney Kutzman, Partner and CEO of Charleston Home + Design Magazine. As a native of Portland, Oregon, I’ve traded hiking boots for sandals, and have fully embraced Lowcountry living. My passion for storytelling, paired with my background in publishing, makes this role especially meaningful to me. Along with this note, you’ll find a photo of the CH+D sales and art departments, the talented group working behind the scenes to bring each issue to life.
As we step into spring, we hope this issue sparks fresh ideas, new projects, and a renewed appreciation for the beauty of living in the Lowcountry.
Here’s to a colorful season ahead.

This family-owned business brings a tailored, detail-driven approach to every window, inside and out.
Describe the services Seaside Window Treatment offers:
Many customers don’t initially realize that Seaside Window Treatment offers both interior and exterior solutions. We truly are a one-stop shop for all things window treatments. From outdoor Bahama shutters to woven shades and custom drapes for the interior, we can do it all.
What sets Seaside Window Treatment apart?
We are a small, local, family-operated company. What truly sets us apart is that we work directly with the client throughout the entire process, including installation. Nothing is ever handed off. We often receive clients who say they’ve met with other companies for a quote, only to never receive one. With Seaside Window Treatments, clients can expect a quote within 12 hours of measuring their space, and if there is ever a delay, we communicate that. We do what we say we’re going to do, and that reliability goes a long way in the window treatment business.
From consultation to installation, what does your process look like?
Homeowners can schedule an in-home consultation, where a member of our team brings the product samples discussed during the initial phone call. Clients are also welcome to visit one of our design studios
in Charleston or Beaufort. After selections are made, we schedule a home or business measurement and deliver a quote within 12 hours. Once the proposal is approved, production begins. Approximately 80% of the products in our showroom are made in the United States. Interior window treatments typically have a lead time of three to six weeks, while exterior products range from eight to twelve weeks. Once the treatments arrive, we schedule installation within a few days. We like to move quickly once products arrive.
For interior window treatments, plantation shutters remain the classic choice, timeless and never out of style. Woven shades are also a favorite, especially with coastal interiors. We also complete many projects with fabric Roman shades and custom drapes for a softer, layered look. Living on the coast also means prioritizing protection. We install many Bahama shutters and colonial shutters, both decorative and hurricanerated. In the past few years, we’ve expanded our offerings to include exterior screen shades for porches and outdoor spaces.
For more information, call the Seaside Window Treatment at (843) 714-9578 or visit seasidewindowtreatment.com.
Kate Hannon and Cody Wilt of HW Cabinet Co. chat about their favorite cabinetry styles, aesthetics, and hardware.
by
It truly depends on each space. HW Cabinet Co. offers frameless, framed, and inset cabinetry. But I've always loved the character and warmth that framed cabinets offer.
I am drawn to warm and welcoming cabinetry; nothing overly sleek. Contemporary cabinetry feels organic, reflecting the way you live. I design inviting spaces that embrace the everyday: a natural complement to contemporary cabinetry.
Frameless or Framed Cabinetry?
Modern vs. Contemporary?
For function, frameless cabinetry is the right choice. Frameless cabinetry offers better storage, wider openings, and an open feel. For a more traditional look, inset cabinetry adds personality and charm.
Modern cabinetry is all about straight, clean lines with a natural, grounded color palette. That is why I’m drawn to it. This type of cabinetry is more timeless and intentional, similar to the way I design.
Give me all the cabinet space! Between running HW Cabinet Co. and being a new mother, I need to come home to a space that feels calm and put together. Floor-toceiling cabinetry does just that. It hides the everyday mess, creating a polished aesthetic.
I love to add personality to my designs with bold silhouettes in softer finishes. Statement hardware is the finishing touch that brings a space’s aesthetic together.
For
Open Shelves or Floor-to-ceiling Cabinetry?
Statement vs. No Hardware?
Floor-to-ceiling cabinetry would be my first choice. There’s a place for open shelving; in a butler’s pantry. I love open shelves in that type of space, overflowing with fruits, vegetables, or serving pieces. But in the main kitchen? I want everything tucked away. I don’t want clutter on display.
For rooms where visual clarity is key, like the back of an island or high upper cabinetry, I often choose to forgo hardware.
The art of adornment is a timeless cultural practice rooted in the desire to enhance beauty, express oneself, and communicate beyond words. Dating back to as early as the 14th century, adornment has signaled status, spirituality, and personal belief. It is not simply a reflection of wealth or power, but a thoughtful attention to pattern, texture, and craftsmanship, elevating the everyday spaces.
This Editor’s Finds theme transcends this philosophy beyond these pages, celebrating decorative pottery, statement ceramics, lighting, and much more. These pieces layer rooms with pattern and texture, creating a curated, collected sensibile look.
Shop our finds at these local showrooms.
Due to increasing demand, this flooring company has opened a showroom attached to its existing warehouse to better display its products.
Coastal Stone Flooring’s product has grown in demand, and with higher demand, comes the need for a showroom. Since opening this family-owned business, 486 Wando Park Blvd. has been home to their warehouse. Rather than having two locations, they conveniently added a space to showcase their offerings. These flooring experts design and install epoxy resin flooring options for garages, patios, pool decks and other outdoor living areas. Luke Wilson, owner of Coastal Stone Flooring, states, “It’s very useful to have a showroom. It is a place people can come in and see what our product is before they take the final step in investing in a unique type of floor.”
The showroom is open Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., or by appointment. People can expect to be met by a smiling team member, offering a coffee or water. Their most popular floorings are showcased along with their new cabinetry collection. While they offer free in-home consultations, they welcome people to come into their new showroom with pictures of the area they would like covered, along with the measurements for an estimate. “Most people, even builders, are amazed by our one-of-a-kind, unique floors. This showroom allows people the ability to come in and check it out for themselves,” Luke says.
For more information, call Coastal Stone Flooring at (843) 306-3063 or visit coastalstonefloors.com.
Elyse Witt of Zuma Imports
Through frequent trips to Turkey, Zuma Imports co-founders Elyse Witt and Zu Bulut, have imported some of Charleston’s favorite curated vintage goods. Elyse's rustic Awendaw cottage, is filled with hand-crafted Turkish goods, similar to the ones found in her showroom. “I like to test things out in my own home, and it helps us decide what to bring more of into the store,” she says.
For more information, call Zuma Imports at (843) 452-1117 or visit zumaimports.com.
Elyse’s home interior leans natural and earthy, especially in the living area. A mix of new and old grounds the space in layered color and texture. A vintage Turkish rug with warm browns anchors the space, while pops of green in the art, pillows, and window treatments add juxtaposition. A boldly printed chair punctuates one end of the room, while a weathered wood coffee table serves as a focal point.
The patio is anchored by a hand-carved, natural wood table and chairs, topped with Zuma Imports’ signature olive jars that lend a rustic, curated feel. A ‘slow to no wake’ sign sets the tone, while a vintage fan spins overhead beneath a haint blue ceiling. In true Elyse fashion, her chicken steals the show, dancing its way across the table.
The dining space reflects Elyse’s personality, with a framed Turkish rug beside the window and an eclectic banjo displayed on the other side. Tucked in the corner, a Turkish pot overflows with greenery, complementing the velvet green chairs gathered around the wooden table. Overhead, a star-detailed golden chandelier casts a warm glow above a wooden bowl and vintage jar.
While most people make a statement in their guest bath with wallpaper or colorful cabinetry, Elyse took a different approach, installing a hand-carved natural stone sink rich with detail and character. Olive jars, a natural wood countertop, and a funky gold mirror layer in warmth and personality, tying the entire space together.
It’s more than just functional cabinetry; for this local businesswoman, it’s about transforming the heart of the home one bespoke upgrade at a time.
The Craftswoman
Carey Gattyan of Butler Woods Purposeful Designs moved to the Charleston area in the early 2000s with her husband, who at the time was a partner in another cabinetry business. After the economic downturn in 2008, she returned to her background in advertising, but her passion for custom cabinetry never wavered. “The kitchen is the heart of the home, and your cabinets should reflect this belief,” Carey explained. Carey saw an opportunity to return to her passion and bring a quiet, luxurious approach to custom cabinetry in the Charleston market. Now, she crafts cabinets that reflect her clients' lifestyle and personality while never sacrificing beauty for functionality.
The Product(s)
Each cabinet is built with a specific function in mind. “Our cabinetry features 3/4-inch
plywood box construction, which is stronger than the standard 1/2-inch. We use factorybaked finishes which are more durable than on-site paint and available in unlimited options through Sherwin-Williams and Farrow & Ball. Our cabinetry also includes dovetail joinery, optional 1-inch doors for added thickness, and hand-built specialty inserts,” says Carey. For clients seeking a more budget-conscious option, Butler Woods Purposeful Designs also offers a semicustom line with full-overlay construction. It maintains the same 3/4-inch box construction with a shorter lead time.
Every project begins with an understanding of how the client lives. After measuring the space, Carey and her design engineer developed an initial set of renderings tailored to the needs discussed. Clients then visit the
Butler Woods Purposeful Designs showroom to review the drawings, experience the materials firsthand, and make any changes. “During this meeting, I am transparent about the budget. We distinguish between fixed construction costs and variable selections where there is wiggle room,” says Carey. Once finalized, these drawings are sent to a North Carolina mill, where engineering and the backend detailing begin. Fully custom cabinetry takes roughly twelve weeks since it is built entirely from scratch. There are semi-custom options if the client is in need of a shorter turnaround time and a more budget-friendly option.
For more information, call Butler Woods Purposeful Designs at (843) 259-0330 or visit butler-woods.com.
Semi-custom cabinets with multiple cabinetry accessories maximize the storage space and usability of this kitchen.
Though rich in Lowcountry charm, this home’s 1990s kitchen fell short on storage. With limited upper cabinetry and inefficient corner storage, these homeowners sought smarter, more functional solutions. As avid cooks, the homeowners intended the kitchen to be a heavily used area.
This kitchen held much potential. Referred by the home builder, Charleston Cabinets, Inc., recognized an opportunity to design a space that worked for the homeowners rather than have them work around it. The existing layout presented clear challenges, including clanking corner cabinets and an outdated configuration that failed to store appliances and utensils properly. The homeowner needed faster, easier access and functional storage.
The process began with an in-showroom consultation, where a collaborative planning session focused on matching cabinetry accessories to specific storage needs. Following the consultation, detailed plans and renderings were created, and once finalized, the cabinetry was ordered. Charleston Cabinets, Inc. handled the installation of cabinetry and countertops supplied by Real Deal Countertops, ensuring a seamless fit with the cabinetry. To address the clanking corner cabinets, the lazy susan was replaced with three semi-custom angled corner drawers, maximizing storage while providing easy access to silverware and place mats near bar seating. Additional functionality was introduced with a base pantry pull-out, featuring smooth-gliding shelves for easy access. Charleston Cabinets, Inc. focused the new layout around how the homeowners actually used the space day-to-day, resulting in a highly functional space and a satisfied client.

These HVAC experts explain how years of dust and debris buildup can lead to system breakdowns and why every homeowner deserves clean, healthier air.
What’s the impact of dirty ductwork on an HVAC system?
Over time, dust, dirt, pollen, and debris build up in ductwork, restricting airflow. This forces your heating and cooling system to run longer and work harder. An HVAC breakdown isn’t sudden, they’re caused by years of unnoticed strain. “Dust and debris don’t just sit in your ducts. They slowly wear down your system,” Hannah Davis of Fix-It 24/7 says.
Schedule professional duct cleaning every few years with Fix-It 24/7. This reduces unnecessary stress on your system and can prevent costly repairs.
How does ductwork affect the air quality in your home?
What’s inside your ductwork also affects the air you breathe. Air moving through dirty ducts carries dust, allergens, and contaminants into every room, which can worsen allergies and respiratory issues for family members.
As a special offer for CH+D readers, Fix-It 24/7 is providing a standard duct cleaning for $1,500, valued at $2,700. Pricing may vary.
Regular duct cleaning improves indoor air quality, and pairing it with regular filter changes helps you breathe easier yearround. Fix-It 24/7 recommends a more frequent service for homes with pets, recent renovations, or ongoing humidity exposure.
When might a homeowner notice a difference after cleaning ducts?
Some homeowners notice improvements in allergies and overall comfort almost immediately after a professional duct cleaning, as debris and allergens are removed from the system. Lowcountry homeowner, Miller Ford, experienced the difference firsthand. He explains, “My wife’s allergies were noticeably better almost immediately. I was honestly shocked by what came out of our ducts. You don’t realize how bad it is until you see it.”
If family members suffer from seasonal allergies or respiratory sensitivities, consider prioritizing duct cleaning. It delivers noticeable results quickly and can improve your quality of life.
What makes professional duct cleaning different from a quick or cosmetic service?
At Fix-It 24/7, a dedicated team specializes in carefully cleaning accessible ductwork, managing debris throughout the process, vacuuming thoroughly afterward, and treating each home with care.
Invest in a reputable company that handles ductwork and unit maintenance carefully from start to finish. Quick cleanings often miss hidden buildup, leaving allergens and dust behind. Call Fix-It 24/7 for a thorough service.

Clients can see it, feel it, operate it, especially if it’s motorized, and really understand how it works. It’s also different seeing it in your home versus a picture online. A lot of people pull up photos and say, ‘I want it to look like this,’ but lighting here in Charleston is different based on the location. We have a mobile showroom to bring sample books to a client's home, giving them options to see what truly works.

We focus on creating outdoor spaces that are functional, beautiful, and tailored to the homeowner’s lifestyle, from patios and pergolas to irrigation, lighting, and permeable pavers. One of the most important aspects of our work is considering the views from inside the home, ensuring every landscape enhances both the indoor and outdoor experience.

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT :
J.R. Kramer
REMARK LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE
We designed a modern landscape that functions as a private retreat for the homeowners. Whether gathering around the fire, playing bocce or tennis, or simply enjoying the grounds, subtle pathways guide movement from one space to the next. These transitions are partially concealed by layered native and non-invasive plantings, creating a sense of discovery and connection throughout the property.
The design intention begins at the curb. In collaboration with the builder, we extended architectural elements into the landscape to create cohesion between structure and site. Tall hedges echo the home’s vertical planes, defining outdoor rooms and guiding circulation. The driveway curves intentionally, mirroring the surrounding tree canopy and reinforcing movement. A green roof above the garage doubles as a balcony space, emphasizing indooroutdoor living and strengthening the architectural dialogue.
Our strategy focused on spatiality through planting. We incorporated native species alongside select non-invasive exotics to achieve texture, depth, and seasonal interest. For example, podocarpus hedges were used to define outdoor spaces; while not native, they are non-invasive and highly adaptable. The overall goal was to create structure, enclosure, and layered visual richness without overwhelming the architecture.
Securing approval from the Daniel Island Architectural Review Board was the primary challenge. Our work is intentionally one-ofa-kind, and this project introduced a more modern interpretation of Lowcountry landscape design. Because it didn’t follow traditional expectations, additional review was required. Ultimately, the result reflects our commitment to thoughtful innovation while respecting the surrounding context.

Evan Diament
DIAMENT BUILDING CORP.
The homeowner envisioned a home where the outdoors felt everpresent, and its open layout, paired with the finishes and interior design by Luann McCants, brings that idea to life. Personal touches, like the antlers collected from the homeowner’s hunts and the bold wallpaper selection, shift the house from a new build into a home.
Hands down, my favorite space to build was the kitchen. The dolomite countertops sourced from Italy pair beautifully with the Spanishinspired backsplash and the plaster range hood adorned with a pair of antlers. The star of the room is the 200-year-old reclaimed white oak ceiling, supplied by a friend from Georgia, and installed by a member of my team who previously worked as a carpenter.
Describe the living area:
There are actually two living spaces in this home, each have fireplaces. The one opposite the kitchen features a big plaster fireplace to mimic the range hood. The plaster work featured throughout the home was completed by my long-term employee, who is a third-generation Charleston mason. The plaster was hand-mixed and installed in-house. The other living space displays a wet bar with striking wallpaper and black cabinetry, in contrast to the neutral vertical shiplapped fireplace.
Tell us about the exterior:
Originally, this custom home was designed elevated. That wasn’t necessary since the property is not in a flood zone, so I worked with Drafted Architecture on a redesign. With this being a new build, my team and I focused on building a maintenance-free exterior with impact-rated windows. It’s important to protect the exterior before focusing on the interiors. Naturally, the exterior is painted in a deep moss green to blend in with the surrounding nature.
For more information, call Diament Building Corp. at (843) 991-5531 or visit diamentbuilder.com.
(above) Shiplap walls were incorporated into the living space to break up elements and differentiate the spaces. (below) In the kitchen, the 200-year-old reclaimed white oak ceiling serves as a focal point.
INTERIOR DESIGNER:
KATE MILES DESIGN
What is your design philosophy?
I like to begin every project with understanding how a client lives and what is important to them. I always try to incorporate the existing meaningful pieces, whether that’s art or furniture, and then layer from there. My goal is to curate spaces that feel collected, but fresh and complete, much like the approach behind my retail store located at 125 Pitt Street in Mount Pleasant.
What makes this project unique?
Designing a condo made the project unique to me; designing it for my mother made it special. It was probably easier in some ways because I know how my mother lives and what she likes. The design features personal touches, like the commissioned painting by local artist Ryan Beck, which hangs above the mantel, depicting my mother and late father walking on the beach.
Were there any challenges?
This condo had a small footprint, forcing me to be more mindful of how the space flows between living areas. We carried blues and greens through the spaces in varying tones to create cohesion while keeping the existing wood finishes for consistency. The previous owner had already selected the tiles and finishes, so I had to work creatively within those constraints.
What inspired the design?
The surrounding beach was my main inspiration, I wanted the space to feel coastal without screaming “beach house.” The architecture of the condo was more modern than the client preferred, but by combining new furniture with antiques and coastal hues, a transitional and curated look was achieved.

This modern Daniel Island residence reflects the thoughtful approach REMARK Landscape Architecture brings to every project. Working alongside Shelter Custom Homes, the landscape was designed to complement and elevate the home’s architecture. Native and well-adapted plantings were carefully integrated. Given the coastal location, particular attention was given to stormwater strategy and drainage.

Inside a custom home on Daniel Island, this local stone supplier played a key role in bringing the homeowners’ vision to life.
Using advanced fabrication techniques, the team created innovative, custom surface applications tailored specifically to this home. A thoughtful combination of materials sourced from the company’s North Charleston showroom, adds depth, durability, and a refined finish throughout the home. The result is a cohesive blend of craftsmanship and creativity.

(above left) Encore provided the fireplace surround, a 12mm porcelain slab in Navona Lapado, which reads as natural travertine without the cost or weight. (above right) The team went with a leathered finished 3cm Adamantium quartzite to add depth to the scullery’s wood tones.
This custom home, built by Jonathan Gant Construction with interiors by JLV Creative, showcases what can happen when thoughtful design meets revolutionary material selection. They worked closely with Encore Stone Studio to create a home that highlights both innovation and clarity in the stone selection process. “It’s a very unique project to have three different materials used in one home,” Clark Hunter of Encore Stone Studio says.
The home on Daniel Island features natural quartzite, engineered quartz, and large-format porcelain, each chosen for its specific performance and aesthetic. In the scullery, game room, and outdoor grill station, the team installed 3cm Adamantium quartzite in a leathered finish. The finish requires a process that removes softer areas of the stone, creating a surface where the veining becomes tactile as well as visual. “You not only see the veining, but you can feel it. It creates a more rustic look,” Clark says.
The powder room continues the theme of craftsmanship with a 3cm Sambori polished quartzite vanity. The design features mitered
edges, creating the illusion of a solid stone block floating on the wall. In reality, the vanity is made of standard-thickness material. “There’s so much you can do with mitering,” Clark says, noting that full aprons and wrapped edges add visual mass without adding unnecessary weight or cost.
In the office bath, the designers selected 3cm Cinder Craze Silestone quartz with a suede finish by Cosentino, while the fireplace makes a different kind of statement. The surround uses a 12mm Navona Lapado porcelain slab from Porcelanosa. Though the material reads like thick silver travertine, it is actually porcelain. The thinner profile allows for a floating effect and greater flexibility than traditional stone. “Thinner porcelain slabs are very versatile,” Clark says.
That philosophy extends beyond design into Encore’s business model. After years of watching clients fall in love with materials only to learn weeks later that they had exceeded their budgets, Encore chose a different approach. As the area’s most transparent supplier, Encore Stone Studio is able to provide real-time
information, from slab pricing to availability, so homeowners can make confident decisions immediately. “We can give them all the information they need to make the right decision on the spot,” Clark says. The goal is to save time, reduce frustration, and allow clients to make informed decisions from the start.
Clark believes cost transparency benefits everyone, including builders and designers. As fabrication technology improves, details like leathered finishes and mitered edges are becoming increasingly accessible. Quartzite, now one of the most popular natural stones on the market, has benefited from these advances. “Our goal has always been to remove the blinders placed on homeowners and even industry professionals. By illuminating what’s truly available to them, we know we’re fulfilling the positive change we began six years ago,” Clark says.
In this home, stone serves as more than a surface. It reflects a larger commitment to honesty, innovation, and informed design; values that Encore Stone Studio continues to build into every project. ✴

Imagined in collaboration with local designers, this home’s interior embodies a distinct design vision that reflects its calm, coastal surroundings.
This new build feels cohesive and deeply personal, shaped by collaboration, trust, and meticulous attention to detail. Layered interiors, thoughtful material selection, and a refined coastal color palette establish a visual thread that carries seamlessly from room to room, creating multifunctional spaces that feel both timeless and comfortably lived in.
The clients, a couple relocating from the Northeast, sought more than a well-designed house. They envisioned a welcoming coastal home that could support daily living and remote work while serving as a gathering place for visiting friends and family. After visiting designers Brittany Hanlon and Stephanie Gannon at their retail shop and design studio, The Shanty Shoppe, they quickly connected with the team’s aesthetic and approach to home design from concept to completion. That alignment laid the foundation for a yearlong project defined by creative freedom and open communication.
Hayes + Nash Design Co. served as a full-service design partner, guiding every decision from flooring and hardware to furnishings and finishing layers. Working from a blank slate, the team curated paint, wallpaper, architectural and decorative lighting, custom upholstery, draperies, pillows, rugs, art, and styling throughout the home. The designers made each selection with intention, ensuring continuity across spaces and reinforcing a cohesive, carefully edited vision.
Custom upholstery anchors the main living areas and balances comfort with tailored structure. Draperies and layered textiles soften architectural lines and introduce pattern and depth without overwhelming the coastal palette. The team used lighting to shape mood, scale, and function, pairing well-planned architectural fixtures with statement pieces throughout the home. Each layer supports the overall design, resulting in interiors that feel collected rather than decorated, polished yet relaxed.
From custom linens, window treatments, and wallcoverings, the mix of patterns and prints play together in this coastal atmosphere designed by Hayes + Nash Design Co.
(1) Each space was designed with the others in mind for seamless transitions from room to room. (2) The light and bright color palette features accents from Shanty Shoppe that introduce coastal motifs and natural texture. (3) An intimate dining space brings the outside views in and fosters comfort and connection with cozy oversized dining chairs.
The project centered on creating a home that transitions seamlessly between everyday life and entertaining. The designers planned rooms to accommodate work, relaxation, and hosting, supporting the clients’ desire to fully embrace Lowcountry living. The finished interiors reflect that goal, offering an inviting environment that prioritizes connection and comfort while maintaining a refined aesthetic. For the designers, the trust the clients placed in them from the beginning proved especially meaningful. That confidence allowed them to move decisively and fully realize a layered vision. Their process emphasizes attentive listening, clear communication, and careful follow-through, with a consistent focus on the people who will live in the space and the life they want it to support.
The homeowners described the experience as seamless and enjoyable from the first consultation through final installation. They credited Hayes + Nash Design Co. with managing every detail, translating their vision, and delivering a home that exceeded expectations. Today, the residence stands as a reflection of both the clients and the collaborative process behind it: welcoming, personal, and distinctly theirs. ✴

A local artist transforms a brick wall in a historic 1830s Charleston home with a mixed-media installation.
In a historic Charleston residence overlooking the Nathaniel Russell House, artist Emily Pope Harris approached a residential installation as an act of interpretation rather than a surface treatment. The project focused on a brick wall from the early 19th century that had undergone decades of repairs, structural changes, and agerelated deterioration, resulting in a patchwork of original masonry and plaster.
The homeowners, a retired couple who relocated from New Orleans, spent years restoring the property and preserving its character. They kept much of the exposed brick throughout the renovation. One section required a more intentional intervention. Structural updates introduced new thin brick at the upper portion of the
wall, disrupting the visual continuity of the original masonry. Instead of concealing the change, the clients requested a layered solution that would acknowledge the wall's history while unifying its appearance.
Emily developed a mixed-media plaster finish that evokes the passage of time. She drew from inspiration images and on-site observations to shape a surface that feels authentic to the home’s age while remaining distinctly contemporary. Her process began with an in-person consultation, field measurements, and a conceptual sketch, which she shared with the clients in a presentation outlining the tone, texture, and direction. Emily treated the installation as a siteresponsive process. She built texture with mortar and cement mixtures to
Built in the 1800s, this brick wall now functions as a one-of-a-kind art installation by Emily Pope Harris.
(above) With a background in Art History, Emily approaches each project with a keen eye for time and place. This installation carries the visual weight of time in a unique finish.
create depth and variation across the wall. She then layered plaster, glazes, and specialty paints to produce tonal shifts and areas of exposure that mirror the natural wear of historic facades. The finished surface reads as both architectural and artistic. It carries the visual weight of an original plaster application shaped by time rather than a newly applied finish.
Emily responded to the wall's existing conditions at every stage. She adjusted the composition and layering in real time, allowing the surface to evolve like a painting. No section followed a fixed template, and the final installation cannot be precisely replicated. The piece's individuality reinforces the idea that the wall functions as a one-of-a-kind artwork embedded within the home's architecture.
The project reflects Emily’s broader practice at the intersection of fine art and residential design. She studied art history and trained alongside designers and decorative finish
artists before developing a specialized approach rooted in historic materials, plaster techniques, and surface storytelling. Charleston’s architecture continues to inform her work, particularly the city’s aging facades, exposed masonry, and layered building histories.
For the homeowners, the finished wall now anchors the renovation and connects old and new elements throughout the interior. The installation does not disguise the evolution of the structure. Instead, it embraces it. The plasterwork acknowledges the home’s 19th-century origins, the realities of modern restoration, and the creative potential that emerges when art and architecture converge. ✴

Inside a Kiawah Island home styled to balance flexibility, texture, and Lowcountry character.
For John Dolan, good design unfolds over time, and it’s discovered at the Seawah Furniture | Design showroom on Johns Island. In a recent residential project, John and the Seawah team embraced a four-phase process that began outdoors and gradually moved inside. Now in phase three, the focus has shifted to what John calls “all the littles”: accessories, artwork, and select wallpaper moments that complete the story.
“You don’t have to do it all at once, and we will never pressure a purchase,” he says. That flexibility defines Seawah’s approach. Multiphase projects allow clients to live in their spaces, refine their needs, and return over time to continue building a cohesive design. In the living room, John sourced everything from the showroom for an immediate transformation. He anchored the space with a sectional designed to preserve sightlines and traffic flow toward the outdoors. The
bumper chaise configuration keeps the room open while framing views of the surrounding landscape. Wilderness-inspired motifs subtly echo the home’s natural setting, while striped exterior fabrics reference the vertical rhythm of nearby trees. Custom pillows in Revolution performance fabric add durability without sacrificing comfort.
John layered in swivel chairs to create additional seating and conversation zones. A bar-height table behind the sofa introduces function without crowding the space, paired with counter stools upholstered in performance fabric, all sourced from Seawah Furniture | Design.
Throughout the home, rounded arms and curved tables soften the architecture and reinforce a sense of ease. That philosophy extends outdoors, where Seawah selected woven furniture made from Enduro, a

recycled plastic material designed to withstand coastal weather. “It won’t weather like other materials,” John says, making it ideal for long-term outdoor living.
This project resists traditional coastal clichés. “Coastal interiors don’t have to be coral prints or seashells or blue everywhere,” he says. Instead, he relies on organic textures, warm wood tones, and materials that subtly reference life near the water. He begins each project with a grounding neutral, then layers slight variations in pattern and texture. A consistent green tone carries through multiple rooms, creating visual continuity.
Whimsical and heritage elements reinforce the Lowcountry aesthetic. Propellers, swan heads, duck heads, and even mushroom accents appear throughout the home. “They’re all things you’re going to find down here, adding personality without feeling themed,” he says.
In the kitchen, the design team worked within an existing layout that the homeowners did not
want to renovate. Backless stools at the counter reduce visual clutter and prevent the space from feeling crowded. The primary bedroom reflects the same layered thinking. The homeowner wanted a workspace, but not a traditional desk. Seawah created a hybrid zone where she can work during the day and unwind with a cocktail at night. “It creates a nice moment of retreat and a private escape within the home,” John adds.
Seawah’s strength lies in its collaborative, flexible mindset. “Outside-the-box thinking is what achieves our curated looks,” he says. By allowing homes to evolve in phases, the studio delivers interiors that feel personal, intentional, and built to last. ✴

A coastal redesign was top of mind for these homeowners who needed a complete refresh in three separate bathrooms.
Abathroom is one of the first rooms in a home to show its age. For these Charleston homeowners, it just so happened that it was time to renovate all three of their bathrooms, including the primary suite, guest bathroom, and powder room. Working with the team at Conner III Homebuilders, the resulting designs are now modern and upto-date, with a serene, coastal color palette throughout. To make space for these changes, Conner III Homebuilders completely renovated 3,000 square feet of the ground level after removing two large columns. Because these were load-bearing, the open, coastal feel was maintained by installing a 40-inch steel beam for stability.
After six months of design planning with Megan Molten Interior Design, the architects and structural engineers at Coastal Creek Design, Conner III Homebuilders overhauled these three bathrooms in just three months. Their commitment to the timeline, attention to detail, and clear communication were key factors in the project’s success, thanks to their team members' experience. Aesthetics were perfected by a local team of suppliers like Buckhannon Tile + Design for bathroom tile, custom cabinets
by Mulberry Millworks, countertops fabricated by Bien Home Services, and building materials sourced from Southern Lumber & Millwork Corp.
In the primary bathroom, a combination of tile selections harmonizes to achieve the coastal look the homeowners desired. The custom-built furniture-style vanities lead the eye to the striking porcelain tile accent wall. The Palm Beach Collection tile, sourced from Buckhannon Tile + Design, features a textured palm leaf pattern that replicates the look of a traditional wallcovering while providing the durability and ease of maintenance needed in a humid bathroom. A pebble-grain tile on the floor mimics a sandy beach, while the cool blue walls, finished in a sandy shade of large-format porcelain, lead the way to the freestanding soaking tub and floor-mounted filler in bright brass. All plumbing fixtures use this finish, including the cross-handle sink faucets and the full shower and trim kit seen in the glassenclosed shower.

complements the ocean-blue hues that inspired it. Though simple, the design is entirely thoughtful with more custom cabinetry, new countertops, and a refreshed walk-in shower. The coastal feel is completed with wall-mounted sconces with linen shades and a mirror framed in natural material. The finishes are sleek and fresh, polished chrome.
For the final bathroom update, the team recognized the opportunity a small powder room offers. A full-height tiled accent wall makes way for the sky blue floating vanity and fabulous fixtures. A beaded chandelier creates a moment of allure for guests, and the wall-mounted sconce continues the wall’s light and bright appeal. The refinished hardwoods feel classic to a beach cottage and continue throughout the rest of the ground floor, creating a harmonious renovation that fits its Lowcountry setting ✴

A custom-built pool seamlessly integrates modern engineering, design, and technology.
This custom project showcases a 60foot lap pool paired with an oversized, destination-style spa that serves as a private retreat within the property. Every component from the design, materials, and systems all work together to create a high-performance pool and spa that aligns with the architecture and elevates the outdoor experience.
The success of this project is due to the close collaborative process between Blue Haven Pools & Spas, architect Myles Trudell, and builder Ryan Buck of RM Buck Builders.
“This was about blending engineering, design, and technology into a pool and spa that feels seamless with the architecture of the home,” Blue Haven Pools & Spas Director of Business Development, David Gephart, shares.
The team at Blue Haven Pools & Spas used large-format Italian porcelain slab walls as a standout design feature. Sourced overseas, they navigated a 30 to 40-week lead time and coordinated crane installation with out-of-state specialists. Each piece is placed with millimeter-level precision to ensure a flawless finish that enhances the space's visual flow.
Blue Haven Pools & Spas also installed a fully integrated automation system that gives the homeowners complete control over temperature, lighting, jets, and fountains. Whether through a smartphone or an inhome panel, the experience can be adjusted instantly. The custom-configured multiheater system supports this functionality, allowing both the pool and spa to reach

desired temperatures quickly and efficiently. To bring the environment to life after dark, custom LED lighting and twin fountains face the front. These elements create a striking nighttime ambiance and add movement and reflection that change with the light.
“We overcame several challenges, including managing long lead times for imported materials, coordinating crane operations, and executing waterproofing that required weeks of preparation. Each step demanded focus, precision, and collaboration with experienced tradespeople. We especially love how the porcelain slab walls, lighting, water features, and automation come together as one cohesive system. At night, the space transforms completely, showing how technology and design can work hand in hand to create something both beautiful and functional,” David says.
The homeowner selected Blue Haven Pools & Spas for their proven ability to execute highly complex, detail-driven projects. Blue Haven Pools & Spas has over 60 locations nationwide, specializing in blending precision engineering with thoughtful design. Their team takes pride in building pools where no detail goes overlooked. ✴

A local design firm weaves together a luxe residence with modern, rustic, and coastal influences.
CHD Interiors guided this comprehensive residential design from early concept through final installation. Designer Lance Griffith worked with the homeowners through each phase to ensure a unified, deeply personal result. The interior weaves together modern, rustic, and coastal influences, creating a home that feels relaxed yet refined. Every decision was shaped by the clients’ interests and expressed through layered materials, custom fabrication, and meaningful craftsmanship.
At the heart of the home, a custom three-story chandelier descends through the central staircase, serving as a defining architectural statement. Constructed from five vertical wood elements sourced in California, the fixture supports 48 hand-blown glass globes, each individually wired on-site. The installation extends nearly 35 feet, linking all three levels with a sense of movement and light. What began as a simple sketch
was realized by in-house wood and iron artisans, resulting in a piece that operates equally as sculpture and illumination.
In the foyer, a fossil feature wall introduces natural history into the design narrative. Composed of 50-million-yearold stone slabs recovered from a Wyoming riverbed, the installation includes a rare section containing fossilized palm fronds and fish. The wall showcases the homeowner’s collection while establishing a striking first impression. To complement the stone, a local artist fabricated faux limestone column wraps that resolve structural limitations without sacrificing the appearance of solid, stacked stone.
Collected and historical materials are present throughout the residence. An antique zinc window surround sourced from a French château brings a subtle Old World patina, while an intentional mix of contemporary, antique, and coastal

A designer’s workspace, showroom, and family retreat coexist inside a reimagined accessory dwelling unit.
What was once an old, rundown “man cave” tucked behind a Mount Pleasant home now functions as a fully realized design studio and multipurpose retreat for Paige Dick of Paige Designs. Dark, enclosed, and minimally furnished, the structure originally served as a casual hangout. Paige recognized its potential as a place to host clients and present installed materials in a real, lived environment.
The building is an accessory dwelling unit, a secondary living structure designed to function independently from the main residence. Today, it includes two sleeper sofas, a dining space, bar area, kitchenette, and a compact full shower, making it a workspace and a guest-ready retreat.
Flexibility guided the layout. Paige avoided extensive built-ins, allowing furnishings to shift between uses. During the day, the studio supports client meetings, presentations, and material reviews. In the evenings and on weekends, it becomes a hangout for her children and a casual gathering space.
Light and openness reshaped the structure. Adding windows and French doors creates a brighter interior and a stronger connection to the outdoors. The kitchenette and bar area reinforce the ADU’s independence and make the space functional for both work sessions and entertaining.

furnishings demonstrate how different detailing and investment levels translate into the finished installation. An antique writing desk anchors the workspace, complemented by a cabinet and table lamps from Villa & House, a pedestal table by Serena & Lily, and an island from Four Hands. Seating includes two Rowe sleeper sofas upholstered in a soft celadon finish.
Finishes and fixtures were selected with both durability and presentation in mind. Bathroom floor tile from Mirth Studio pairs with a floating vanity and marble from The Cabinet Store, plumbing fixtures from Moluf's, and a Zellige tile backsplash from Villa & Lagoon. Hardware is sourced through Foxworth Decorative Hardware, and appliances were supplied by Plugs Appliances. Indoor and outdoor lighting
from Hudson Valley supports both task work and ambiance.
Layered color establishes the studio’s identity. Trim in Neighborly Peach by Sherwin-Williams introduces warmth, while Pepper Home wallpaper adds subtle pattern and texture. Artwork by Abbey Mueller Urban Garden Prints and florals from Abide Awhile complete the space without overpowering it.
Storage remains integrated and discreet, allowing Paige to house samples and presentation tools while maintaining a residential feel. The result is a studio that functions as a working environment, a demonstration space, and a family retreat within the same footprint.
As the project evolved, Paige began thinking about a name that could connect the studio to something more personal. She landed on Pinewood Studio, a nod to the street she grew up on in Colorado, where her earliest memories of creating and rearranging spaces sparked a lasting love for design. Today, the studio itself acts as a living portfolio, with its identity continuing to develop alongside the work created within it. ✴

In this kitchen renovation, recycled-glass countertops become a modern centerpiece.
In Park Circle, a 1960s ranch renovation set out to deliver a kitchen that feels crisp, contemporary, and unmistakably personal. The homeowner pictured a space rooted in neutrals and natural tones, with a mid-century modern sensibility that avoids anything overtly coastal. She set a clear goal: a statement-making centerpiece island.
The homeowner found GlassEco Surfaces on social media and saw an immediate match for her design goals. “When I came across their photos on social media, I knew their product would be a great option for my mid-century modern aesthetic,” she says. She partnered with Elizabeth Fisher of GlassEco Surfaces in North Charleston and selected a large central
island with dramatic waterfall edges. Many of GlassEco's countertops feature oyster shells, but this kitchen commits to glass. The team used recycled glass pieces in a custom mix that feels tailored, elevated, and modern.
The process started with several design sessions. The homeowner arrived with a dark green backsplash already selected, and she used it as the anchor for the glass color story. From there, the palette took shape through a careful balance of tones and percentages. The team kept the surface cohesive from every angle, including the waterfall panels. The homeowner brought the core inspiration, and the GlassEco team translated those references into a buildable material plan.
Fabrication brought a unique challenge. Because the island scale is substantial, the team planned for slab handling and production logistics from the start. This project also marked a first for the shop: a large, glass-only format that required a strong presence of each selected color to achieve the right rhythm across the surface. The extra coordination paid off. The island now serves as both the visual and social center of the kitchen, tying the renovation’s clean lines to a surface that feels one-of-a-kind.
After installation, the island became the defining feature of the new kitchen. “My kitchen island turned out beautifully and is the first thing people comment on. Everyone is curious about the design and

fabrication process. It’s a fun point of pride to say they were made right here in Park Circle,” she adds.
That local connection sits at the heart of what sets GlassEco Surfaces apart. The company makes its own products and offers locally sourced, design-driven customization options. Their process supports a full circle of recycling: they collect glass from Charleston restaurants, transform it into durable surfaces, and keep materials out of landfills by giving them a long-term home in residential and commercial spaces.
In this kitchen, that mission reads as both sustainability and style, and it still
honors the homeowner’s preference for a polished, contemporary finish. In the end, the project succeeds on the most important metric: a happy client and a kitchen that invites conversation. The island does more than serve as a work surface. It tells a story of local craft, collaborative design, and a mid-century home renewed with a modern point of pride. ✴

A local home builder blends Lowcountry architecture, modern coastal finishes, and indoor-outdoor living on a rare West of the Ashley home-site.
Set just beyond Rantowles Creek in Meggett, this newly built waterfront home by Hunter Quinn Homes captures the relaxed elegance of Lowcountry living while delivering the functionality today’s homeowners expect. Completed in 2025, the 2,565-square-foot residence sits on just over an acre overlooking Flounder Lake and features four bedrooms, three baths, an office, and a loft, all oriented to maximize water views and everyday livability.
The home follows Hunter Quinn’s Kennedy floor plan, with an upgraded wraparound porch and drive-under configuration. From the outset, the layout was engineered to frame the surrounding landscape, with thoughtful window placement that brings the lake into view from multiple living spaces, including the primary suite. Ten-foot ceilings on the main level amplify the sense of openness, while the home’s elevated position creates natural opportunities for outdoor living below.
The exterior palette pairs Sherwin-Williams Snowbound siding with exposed rafter tails, fiber cement siding, and CertainTeed shingles, all selected for durability in the coastal climate. A wide wraparound
porch anchors the facade and sets the tone for indoor-outdoor entertaining, offering shaded seating areas and unobstructed views of the water. Beneath the home, the drive-under design provides abundant storage for boats, side-by-sides, and recreational gear, transforming the lower level into a flexible extension of the living space.
Inside, pale oak-toned Mohawk RevWood flooring runs throughout the main living areas, complemented by walls painted in SherwinWilliams Drift of Mist. The open-concept layout connects the kitchen, dining area, and living room, creating a natural gathering hub ideal for hosting.
The living room centers on a paneled fireplace with vertical shiplap detailing and a floating-beam mantel, a subtle nod to coastal craftsmanship. Craftsman-style trim upgrades include five-panel doors and 1x6 baseboards, elevating the home's architectural character throughout.
The gourmet kitchen anchors the main level, featuring Calacatta Abezzo quartz countertops, full-overlay Aristokraft cabinetry, and a

large island with additional storage below. Matte-black Moen plumbing fixtures and stainless-steel Samsung appliances introduce a modern contrast to the light, airy palette. Visual Comfort & Co. lighting fixtures complete the space, layering function with statement-making design.
Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a secondary bath, and a lofted multipurpose room adds flexible space for media, play, or overflow guests. Plush carpeting in the upstairs bedrooms contrasts with the durable flooring below, reinforcing the home’s layered approach to comfort. The primary suite delivers one of the home’s most striking moments, where a soaking tub overlooks Flounder Lake. Quartz countertops, a frameless glass walk-in shower, 12x24 porcelain tile, Aristokraft
cabinetry, and Moen fixtures create a spalike retreat that feels both refined and relaxed.
Downstairs, a private ensuite bedroom offers the same flexibility for guests or multigenerational living, while the dedicated home office sits slightly apart from the main living areas, providing a quiet workspace without sacrificing connection to the rest of the home.
Beyond its finishes and floor plan, this home reflects Hunter Quinn’s broader building philosophy. Buyers who own land across Awendaw, McClellanville, Moncks Corner, Summerville, Goose Creek, Meggett, West Ashley, and Mount Pleasant can work with Hunter Quinn’s team to select a floor plan, evaluate site conditions, and personalize
every detail at their North Charleston design center. From cabinetry and flooring to fixtures and exterior materials, each home becomes a tailored expression of its setting and owner. For homeowners drawn to waterfront living with modern convenience and timeless coastal style, this Kennedy Plan project stands as an example of what’s possible on Lowcountry land. ✴

A local residential design and drafting firm transformed a compact three-bedroom home with a strategic addition designed for light, flow, and everyday living.
Crosby Creations Home Designs approached this renovation with a clear objective: expand a small three-bedroom ranch with limited living space while reshaping its layout for modern use. The existing home offered little room for entertaining and featured a quirky floor plan that wouldn't support the homeowner’s day-to-day life.
Designer Toni Johnson led the renovation planning, reworking the original structure and drawing a large addition that redefined how the home functions. The new wing houses a family room, kitchen, and a spacious primary suite, creating a central hub for gathering and daily living. The original portion of the home now serves as guest quarters, an office, and a game room, giving
visitors privacy while preserving flexibility for the homeowner.
The client prioritized entertaining space, higher ceilings, and a kitchen filled with natural light. She also wanted the renovation to make better use of the existing footprint while establishing a new area tailored for everyday routines. Crosby Creations Home Designs drew renovation house plans that balanced preservation with expansion, ensuring the home felt cohesive rather than divided between old and new.
Blending the original brick structure with the new construction presented several design challenges. Toni worked around existing openings on the brick exterior and carefully considered how the addition would connect
The expanded layout supports entertaining, daily routines, and long-term living, while the preserved brick and repurposed spaces maintain a connection to the home’s original character.

visually and structurally. Higher ceilings in the new wing required deliberate roofline solutions, particularly at the entry, where multiple revisions shaped the final vaulted form. The homeowner also arrived with pre-purchased doors and windows she hoped to incorporate. The design team integrated those elements wherever possible without compromising function or proportion.
The kitchen emerged as a defining feature of the project, anchored by exposed beams and expansive windows that draw in natural light. In the adjoining family room, retained brick from the original structure now serves as an accent, linking the new construction to the home’s history. An outdoor-to-indoor shower connection introduces a distinctive lifestyle element that reflects the homeowner’s priorities and daily routines.
The project timeline reflected the level of collaboration involved. The homeowner initiated contact in January 2023, and Crosby Creations Home Designs completed site measurements the following month. Ongoing revisions and conversations shaped the final direction, with construction plans issued in September 2023.
Crosby Creations Home Designs brings nearly two decades of experience to residential renovation and tailors each project to the individual client. Toni approaches design as a collaborative process rooted in how homeowners actually live. “We like to bring new life to existing houses. Clients often ask if their ideas are unrealistic. My response is, this is your home, it has to work for you. Every household lives differently, and the goal is to design around that. Sometimes there’s a better way to incorporate a concept, but it always starts with how someone wants to live,” Toni says.
The completed renovation reflects that philosophy. The expanded layout supports entertaining, daily routines, and long-term living, while the preserved brick and repurposed spaces maintain a connection to the home’s original character. ✴

Vaulted ceilings and expansive windows create a seamless sense of openness inside and out.
An ADA-compliant bathroom with a custom PermaFit system features seamless, watertight walls and laser-measured precision for lifetime durability.
In this Charleston project, accessibility guided every decision.
Bath Fitter of Charleston delivered an ADA-compliant bathroom that is safe, easy to use, and built for longterm performance, while maintaining a clean, contemporary aesthetic. The renovation centered on creating a bathing environment that removes barriers without sacrificing quality or visual cohesion.
At the core of the installation is Bath Fitter’s custom PermaFit system. Each component is manufactured to the exact dimensions of the existing space, ensuring the new bath and wall system fits precisely over the original footprint. Laser-measured fabrication ensures a tight, tailored installation
that eliminates guesswork and reduces disruption during construction. This process also allows most projects to be completed efficiently, often in a fraction of the time of a traditional tear-out renovation.
Molded from durable, non-porous acrylic, the walls form a continuous surface with minimal joints, reducing the risk of leaks and making routine cleaning straightforward. The watertight fit prevents moisture intrusion behind the walls, a key factor in maintaining structural integrity and indoor air quality over time.
For an ADA-compliant environment, safety and accessibility features were integrated into the design. The bathing
area includes a low-threshold entry, strategically placed grab bars, and a layout that supports mobility devices and assisted use. Fixtures and controls were positioned for reachability and ease of operation, ensuring the space functions comfortably for users of varying abilities.
Durability remains a defining advantage. The PermaFit acrylic system resists chipping, cracking, and staining, maintaining its appearance through daily use. Because the materials are engineered specifically for wet environments, they outperform many traditional tile assemblies in longevity and maintenance demands.
Bath Fitter supports the installation with a lifetime warranty, reinforcing the system's long-term value. Homeowners gain confidence that both the product and installation are protected, an important consideration for projects that are centered on aging in place or long-term accessibility.
The result is a bathroom that balances precision engineering with practical comfort. Through lasermeasured fabrication, seamless watertight walls, and ADA-focused planning, Bath Fitter of Charleston delivered a space designed to perform reliably while supporting safe, independent use for years to come.
"This PermaFit shower is one of the many offerings available at BathFitter. Our upgrades are a smart way to enhance your bathroom with no demolition needed," says Tim Poulzin. ✴

This reinvented home on Kiawah Island blends effortlessly with its surroundings thanks to this experienced builder who took it from dated to delightfully modern and breezy.
Tasked with bringing this 2000s build into the present day, this local construction team left no surface untouched in creating this modern escape on Kiawah Island. Steve Drickhamer of Harbor Woods Construction led the project and enlisted the help of his trusted trades and suppliers. For out-of-town clients, his ability to guide them through the process from fixture selection to deciding which walls to tear down was essential.
Steve’s extensive construction management background gives insight into how he overhauled this five-bedroom, sevenbathroom home. The thirty-foot vaulted ceiling in the main living space is one of the most notable design features, but it needed an aesthetic upgrade, as did just about every other surface in the home.
Beyond this, the homeowners wanted to open up the floor plan and maximize space upstairs. It was important to them that they could take in the island views from wherever they were in the home. This required extensive demolition and reframing, and an arch was added to blend the new with the old. There
was much discussion with the Kiawah Island Architectural Review Board about exterior color requirements, something Harbor Woods Construction doesn’t shy away from. The home now looks as if it’s always been this stunning, with upgraded siding, an expanded deck, and multiple outdoor access points for indoor/outdoor living.
One of the most striking transformations is the kitchen, once dark and very 2000s. “We completely changed the entire feel of this home. The client’s main goal was to modernize everything, top to bottom, and brighten any dark or outdated finishes left by the previous owners,” he says. The result is a coastal getaway inspired by the Lowcountry, with the ocean vibes they were after.
“We reframed the whole back of the house and added that arch, and made the back deck open and accessible from several rooms. In the living room, we removed a large stone fireplace. We also completely upgraded the staircase. I made sure to have a specialty contractor come in and build out the curved design to really tie everything together,” Steve tells us. The

kitchen’s unique storage features combine painted finishes with natural walnut, creating a coastal feel. Because the original staircase blocked the windows, the Harbor Woods Team opted to remove the existing stairs and reconfigure the new ones with new custom rails and cantilevered beams to capture the views. The stair redesign has a dramatic impact on the look and feel of the rest of the renovation.
“We changed a lot of the original trim and painted everything. We removed the old fireplace and replaced it with a modern style, and we added new built-ins where we could,” Steve shares. For the guest suite, the bathroom was renovated to provide more space and to complete an aesthetic overhaul, in line with the project's overall theme. “One of my favorite parts of this project is the upper deck; it’s really neat with the new arch,” he adds. The guest suites have deck access right from the bedrooms.
Now that the project is complete, the ceilings feel even grander and guests can see out onto the island from either level. ✴

(above left) Custom cabinets from Spartina Kitchens and Baths and a new custom range create a rustic coastal design in this Kiawah kitchen. (above right) The homeowner can enjoy expansive views and an abundance of natural light from the tub.
This local cabinet company maximized every inch of storage space with its signature glide-outs across various kitchen work zones.
Custom-designed storage upgrades by Art of Drawers transformed this Charleston kitchen, maximizing the home’s available space while maintaining a clean, composed aesthetic. Working within the homeowners’ existing cabinetry, the team focused on eliminating poor accessibility and inefficient storage. The result is a kitchen that feels open, organized, and purposefully designed around how the homeowners actually live.
“The primary focus of this project was creating functional kitchen solutions that eliminated the frustration of a disorganized space. We wanted to dramatically improve accessibility while making the space more enjoyable to use,” Brian Wilkinson of Art of Drawers says.
Originally, the lower cabinets used standard half-shelving, a common layout that limits visibility and wastes valuable storage space. By removing those shelves and replacing them with full-extension glide-outs, Art of Drawers increased usable surface area in every cabinet while allowing homeowners to access contents with a single smooth motion. Everyday cookware, prep tools, and appliances now move forward effortlessly instead of disappearing into the depths of deep cabinets.
A ceiling-height pantry became the project's visual and functional centerpiece. The existing pantry’s depth made it difficult for homeowners to track what they had, often leading to duplicate purchases and clutter. That challenge became especially clear on installation day as the pantry was emptied. Once the new drawers were installed, the transformation was immediate.
“Restocking the pantry became an experience of clarity, control, and genuine joy. As professionals in the logistics industry, the homeowners immediately appreciated the value of maximizing space while maintaining quick and easy access,” Brian explains.
Another critical upgrade focused on the area beneath the kitchen sink. Plumbing lines and the garbage disposal often make this zone one of the most difficult spaces to organize. Art of Drawers designs and builds custom drawer systems that work seamlessly around these obstacles, creating accessible storage that keeps cleaning supplies accessible and visible yet neatly concealed.
Throughout the kitchen, each drawer was crafted from solid maple hardwood using precision dovetail joints. Installed on heavy-duty undermounted rails, these drawers are capable

of supporting up to 150 pounds. These construction details ensure long-term durability while delivering the refined look homeowners expect in a custom kitchen environment.
“We design around real life. Every kitchen functions differently, so we take time to understand how the space is used and create custom solutions for every customer,” he says. Despite the scope of upgrades, the team completed the project with minimal disruption to daily routines, delivering a full design-to-installation turnaround in just five weeks. Homeowners now enjoy improved flow throughout the kitchen, along with storage solutions that balance craftsmanship, beauty, and everyday performance. “Adding rollouts and sliding pantry drawers after our kitchen renovation made everyday items so much easier to reach. Working with Brian, Chris, and Michele was effortless; they truly listen and make sure you get exactly what you envision. Choosing Art of Drawers was absolutely the right decision,” says the homeowner. ✴

Charleston entrepreneur Carrie Morey reflects on the expansion of Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit and the renovation of her Old Village home, where business, family, and hospitality inform her authentic approach to life.
More than a decade after first appearing on the cover of Charleston Home + Design Magazine, Carrie Morey returns at a pivotal moment in her career. When she was first featured, her business was just beginning to gain national traction. Today, the company has expanded its reach, product lines, and retail presence, growing into one of Charleston’s most recognizable entrepreneurial success stories. At the same time, Carrie has completed a thoughtful renovation of her historic home, creating a space that reflects her priorities: authenticity, functionality, and the people who gather around her table.
Written by Micaela Arnett
“I knew if I could find a place to give out warm biscuits, people wouldn’t forget them.”
Carrie Morey’s family home is a residence designed for daily use, frequent hosting, and the realities of balancing a growing business with family life. Here, the connection between her personal and professional worlds becomes clear. The house functions as a place to gather, cook, work, and unwind, reflecting the same values that built her company from the ground up. Balancing motherhood and business has never been about perfection for Carrie. From the beginning, she structured her company around her children’s schedules, not the other way around. School drop-offs, after-school activities, and family dinners remained nonnegotiable, even as wholesale accounts expanded and production demands increased. She built the company in phases, resisting rapid growth when it threatened to compromise quality or presence at home.
(above) Carrie and John Morey reworked and completed an addition led by architect Heather Wilson and Stole Contracting onto this 1950s-era ranch home, thoughtfully expanding the footprint while honoring the home’s original character: the Padget family’s general store. (opposite) In the backyard oasis, the Morey's continued the sense of seclusion with lush, tall privacy plantings around the pool deck.
That steady, deliberate pace reflects her broader philosophy. Success, in her mind, is not defined solely by scale or revenue, but by sustainability. The ability to grow a brand while remaining present for her family remains one of her proudest achievements. For Carrie, business and motherhood were never competing roles. They were always meant to support one another.
Callie’s Biscuits began in 2005 as a modest side venture rooted in family tradition. Inspired by her mother, Callie, and by a lifelong connection to cooking, Carrie launched the business when her eldest daughter was just eight
months old. She expected motherhood to define her daily life, but she also felt a strong pull to build something of her own. “I worked big jobs before I had kids, so I really wanted being a mom to be my main job. But I realized I needed something else for my own growth and development,” she shares.
The earliest version of Callie’s Biscuits centered on a take-and-bake model, shipping handmade biscuits nationwide. Orders increased gradually at first, fueled largely by word of mouth and the product’s distinctiveness. A turning point arrived in 2008. A feature on Food Network’s Unwrapped introduced Callie’s to a national audience and
generated a surge in online demand. Soon after, Carrie was named a finalist in Martha Stewart’s Dreamers and Doers initiative. A segment on the Today Show followed, where she demonstrated biscuit-making live on air. “It really gave us momentum,” she says.
That momentum continued in the years that followed as Carrie stepped further into the national spotlight. In 2021, she began hosting the PBS series How She Rolls, a documentary-style show that follows her as she manages entrepreneurship, motherhood, and the daily demands of running a growing Southern food brand. Instead of focusing solely on recipes, the series
documents her decision-making, leadership style, and life at home, including regular family dinners. The show offers a detailed glimpse into Carrie’s growth and reinforces her true, steady philosophy that ambition and presence can coexist.
For years, the brand grew without traditional advertising. Carrie believed that direct experience would leave the strongest impression. “I knew if I could find a place to give out warm biscuits, people wouldn’t forget them,” she says. Scaling the business required navigating unfamiliar territory. There was no clear model for building a national biscuit brand rooted in handmade production. Carrie learned by doing, making decisions incrementally while protecting the quality that defined the product.
Her cookbooks raised the brand’s awareness, but they also revealed a gap. Visitors to Charleston wanted a place to enjoy fresh, hot biscuits. That realization led to the creation of Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit, one of the country’s first biscuit-focused bakeries and a physical expression of the brand. “I knew that if people came in and experienced it, they’d want more,” she says. Over time, the company expanded its distribution and offerings, steadily increasing its reach while maintaining its identity. More than a decade after its early national exposure, Callie’s has more than tripled in scale, a result of sustained growth rather than rapid expansion.
Carrie has always viewed biscuits as more than a regional staple. To her, they carry cultural weight and a kind of universality that transcends geography. “Biscuits have been around forever. It’s literally the bread of our country. It was
one of the first breads brought to America, and while people often associate it with the South, it really belongs to everyone,” she reminds us.
That perspective shapes how she thinks about her business and its impact on others. A biscuit, in her mind, exists outside of class, trend, or occasion. It can sit on a silver tray at a formal gathering or be pulled warm from the oven in a family kitchen. It holds memory, comfort, and familiarity. “There’s something about breaking bread that connects people. Biscuits
are humble, but they also feel celebratory. They show up at the highest-end events and in everyday homes. That’s what makes them special. They refuse to be defined by who’s eating them,” she says.
Rather than positioning the brand as niche or Southern, Carrie leaned into its broader cultural resonance. The goal was never simply to sell a product, but to create something people could recognize as familiar and meaningful. The brand does not rely on novelty. It relies on something foundational. A biscuit is
simple yet carries history, identity, and a sense of belonging, allowing it to resonate across generations and the country.
At home, Carrie’s next chapter took shape in the historic Old Village, where a 1950s-era ranch, once home to the Padget family’s general store, has been reworked through a renovation and addition led by architect Heather Wilson and Stole Contracting. The lot’s placement shaped the renovation. Its size and position allowed for an L-shaped addition that created a sense of separation from the street and formed a courtyard connected directly to the kitchen. Carrie shares why this recent move means so much. “I grew up in Old Village. My first job was at the Pitt Street Pharmacy right here next to the Post House. It was such a great place to be a kid. It’s a magical corner over here,” she tells us. From the outset, the renovation focused on how the home would function rather than how it would look. The kitchen became the central organizing space, influencing the layout and tone of the entire house. Carrie prioritized openness, natural light, and visual connection to the outdoors. The reconfigured footprint strengthens sightlines between rooms and reinforces the backyard as an extension of daily living, allowing activity in one space to flow naturally
“There’s something about breaking bread that connects people. Biscuits are humble, but they also feel celebratory.”

into the next. The material palette carries throughout the interior. White, gold, black, and wood repeat across cabinetry, hardware, lighting, and furnishings. Wide drawers with slim brass pulls support everyday use, while pine floors show the wear of constant activity. “The whole design was white, gold, black, and wood, with all of that mixed throughout the house,” she says.
Throughout the home, those materials recur in subtle yet intentional ways. Brass appears in hardware, sconces, mirrors, and decorative accents, creating cohesion without uniformity. Warm wood tones ground brighter moments
of color, while black introduces contrast that keeps the palette from feeling too soft. The repetition feels organic rather than orchestrated, reinforcing a layered aesthetic that evolves over time.
The original fireplace anchors the transition into adjacent living areas. Deep blue paneling, a wood mantel, and patterned tile punctuate the space while connecting past and present. Nearby, a breakfast nook creates a smaller gathering area and the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee. A green banquette wraps a round glass table, offering space for everyday meals and conversation. The owl painting above is one she adores, painted by her daughter.
The living areas reflect Carrie’s preference for interiors that evolve over time. The informal living room features floor-to-ceiling built-ins filled with books, objects, and children’s artwork. A leather sofa layered with textiles anchors the room, while an integrated desk and media area support multiple functions. The formal living room provides a more refined counterpart. White slipcovered seating surrounds a vintage coffee table, and a large abstract painting anchors a gallery wall composed of personal art and collected pieces. A patterned rug and layered materials prevent the space from feeling too serious.
“The living room and the dining room have lower ceilings, so we used high gloss paint on the ceiling to reflect light,” Carrie says. Her approach to furnishing remains instinctive. “In terms of furniture and accessories, I just buy what I like,” she says. “If I see something and love it, I find a way to use it.” The result feels personal and grounded, with nothing overly arranged yet everything in its place. Rugs overlap. Vintage items sit alongside mid-century pieces. Art from her children shares space with travel finds and framed works collected over time.
The primary bedroom introduces a quieter tone. Vaulted ceilings and white shiplap create an open feel, while neutral bedding, wood floors, and layered textiles add warmth. Navy nightstands and brass sconces tie the space visually to the rest of the house.
The design balances tradition with modern touches. The primary bathroom continues that balance. A freestanding clawfoot tub anchors the room, set against patterned tile flooring. Brass fixtures and a subway-tile shower reference traditional materials, while contemporary artwork introduces color.
“ You take a chance and hope it grows. I want to see how far we can go.”
Carrie’s home is designed around gathering. Dinner remains a consistent ritual, whether for family or guests. She collects mismatched plates, vintage linens, and artwork from different chapters of her life to create enchanting tablescapes. Her collection of vintage lighting shapes the atmosphere, with dimmers and layered sources adjusting the tone throughout the day. “I like clean, but I don’t need perfect,” she says. The house reflects that perspective. It supports use rather than presentation.
The renovation preserved the home’s history while adapting it for the present. The same approach defines Carrie’s business philosophy. Build gradually. Maintain quality. Focus on the people being served. In its twentieth year, Callie’s reached another milestone with the launch of Biscuit Crackers in Publix stores nationwide. The move expanded accessibility and marked a new phase of growth. “It’s a big deal for a small business like us,” Carrie says. “You take a chance and hope it grows. I want to see how far we can go.” Her business and her home share the same foundation. Both were built through persistence and personal investment. Both continue to evolve with intention.
Nearly twenty years after she first began shipping biscuits from a small workspace, Carrie Morey’s world has expanded in ways she never mapped out. Yet the core remains unchanged. Food made by hand. Rooms designed for use. Growth that feels earned. At this home, the doors open easily, the lights dim softly, and the table is rarely empty. The business may reach across the country, but its spirit lives here, in the everyday joys of family and friends moving through these rooms. Pine floors carry the marks of gatherings past. Brass glows in the evening light. Art layered across the walls tells the story of years spent building both a brand and a home. All rise, indeed. Beyond the biscuit lies something more enduring: a life intentionally shaped, where success is measured as much by presence as by scale, and where everyone still has a seat at the table. ✴

Inside Woodhouse Spa’s newest location, where historic architecture and thoughtful design redefine wellness in Charleston.
Tucked quietly behind the storied facade of the Wentworth Mansion, a new wellness destination has emerged, one that feels less like a commercial spa and more like a private retreat discovered by chance. Located at 141 Wentworth Street within the property’s former carriage house, the third Charleston location of Woodhouse Spa offers a distinctly different experience from its larger counterparts: intimate, residential, and deeply rooted in place.
For owner Kimmy Powell, the opportunity to bring Woodhouse Spa to Wentworth felt personal from the start. When the space became available, having once lived just down the street, Kimmy recognized its potential immediately. Away from the bustle of Charleston’s most tourist-heavy corridors, the location offered something increasingly rare: a neighborhood setting with a strong sense of belonging.
That sense of scale is intentional. While Woodhouse Spa locations typically span nearly 10,000 square feet, the Wentworth outpost measures just over 1,000, making it the smallest Woodhouse Spa to date and the first of its kind within the brand’s franchise model. Rather than viewing the limited footprint as a constraint, Kimmy approached it as an invitation to rethink how luxury could live within a smaller, historic envelope.
The result is a space that feels warm, layered, and thoughtfully composed. Plush gray and brown upholstery anchors the interiors, paired with soft, marshmallow-soft blankets, dim ambient lighting, and gentle aromatics that linger without overwhelming. The palette stays true to Woodhouse’s signature warm neutrals, but the effect here is more residential than resort-like. Here, it’s less about spectacle, more about comfort.
Every design decision was shaped by both the building’s limitations and its history. The carriage house dates back to the late 1800s, and many of its original architectural elements remain intact. Exposed brick walls, wood beams, and arched details give the spa an unmistakable Charleston character, while textured glass windows add visual interest and softly diffuse natural light. Rather than covering or disguising these features, Kimmy and her team, including, Designer and former Charleston Home + Design Magazine cover star JuJu Taylor, leaned into them, allowing the building’s bones to guide the design. Designing a spa within such a compact footprint
required careful consideration. With only one bathroom and limited storage, the layout had to work hard without feeling overworked. A dedicated shower in the changing area accommodates body treatments, while the couple’s massage suite features a steam shower for aromatherapy, elevating the offering without expanding the footprint.
That balance between function and feeling carries through the entire space. Custom cabinetry maximizes storage without disrupting flow, while polished concrete floors installed by Summit Industrial Flooring offer durability and visual continuity within the historic structure. Soft curtains help temper the effect of high ceilings and hard surfaces, creating a sense of enclosure that feels calming rather than confining.
Though intimate, the spa delivers the full Woodhouse experience. Treatment rooms mirror the brand’s latest design standards, and guests can book everything from deep-tissue massage to HydraFacials, one of Kimmy’s most
enthusiastically recommended services. Despite the spa’s size, nothing feels scaled back. Instead, the experience feels curated, as though each service was chosen specifically for this setting.
That sense of intentionality extends to the spa’s newest offering, The Escape, a body treatment inspired by the Wentworth location, available at all Woodhouse Spas. Created in response to high demand for massage and limited treatment rooms, the customizable service incorporates dry brushing, lotion application, scalp and extremity work, and sculpting facial techniques. It’s indulgent without being overwhelming, and aligns naturally with the spa’s slower, more personal rhythm.
Equally considered is the guest experience beyond the treatment room. Signature Woodhouse touches remain: heated neck wraps, cozy blankets, and a hot-tea-andchampagne ritual that encourages guests to linger in the
grand courtyard. Wentworth’s location also allows for seamless transitions, from spa appointments to an evening drink or dinner on the property, making it easy to turn a visit into a full afternoon or evening escape.
Beyond services, the Wentworth location also expands Woodhouse’s growing focus on retail and gifting. Just in time for Mother’s Day, the brand has introduced a signature Spa Box, available for purchase both in-store and online. Designed to ship nationwide, the box offers an elevated alternative to traditional gifting, ideal for loved ones who may not live near a Woodhouse location or prefer to spa at home.
Inside, recipients will find a curated selection of Woodhouse favorites, including eucalyptus shower mist, a lavender eye pillow, bath balm, dry brush, bath oil, and nourishing body products. The box can be purchased with or without a gift card, making it both flexible and thoughtful. Seasonal and holiday-specific editions are planned, further positioning
Woodhouse as a lifestyle brand rather than simply a service provider. Importantly, the spa is not reserved solely for hotel guests. Neighborhood residents are encouraged to walk in anytime, whether for a treatment, retail shopping, or gifting. While signage remains intentionally understated, the experience inside feels welcoming and unpretentious, reinforcing Kimmy’s vision of the spa as a community space rather than a hidden luxury.
Kimmy knows her success is built on both exceptional clients and an exceptional
Where design supports stillness, history informs beauty, and luxury feels deeply personal.
team. Her executive team, Debbie Jenner, Brandon Watts, and Christian Powell, lead day-to-day operations and help maintain the consistently elevated hospitality standards Woodhouse is known for. Elegant, historic, and intimate are three words Kimmy uses to describe the Wentworth location, which also serve as a fitting summary of the space itself. In an era when wellness often equates to scale, Woodhouse Spa at Wentworth Mansion offers a quieter alternative: a place where design supports stillness, history informs beauty, and luxury feels deeply personal. ✴
