DESIGNING A NEW HOME OR
UPDATING existing spaces can be an exciting process—but it’s not necessarily straightforward. Hiring the professionals at Allison Campbell Design, a full-service interior design firm, can make that process smoother, more organized and ultimately, more affordable.
“I create solutions, I’m a problem solver,” says owner and principal designer Allison Campbell. “I’m involved in the whole process from plan to design to completion. I work with the subcontractors onsite and builders call me directly, so my clients don’t have to figure things out.”
This meticulous, detail-oriented firm started in 1999 and its members quickly earned a reputation as experts in construction design. “Our approach blends knowledge, experience, talent and a touch of humor to make your building journey as enjoyable as possible,” says Campbell. With experience in new construction as well as remodels, this firm offers incredible attention to detail. “Trust the process. The build will be a multifaceted process, and often, things won’t make sense—it isn’t always logical,” says Campbell. “Sometimes, what looks good on paper doesn’t really always fit in reality. Don’t get frustrated if you take a step backward, and don’t be afraid to ask questions.”
ALLISON CAMPBELL Owner & Principal Designer
“Every successful project starts with building relationships. We advocate for our clients so that when they come home, they feel like they are home. I work directly for the homeowners without stepping on builders’ or subcontractors’ toes. I see everyone’s part in this process and try to advocate for all parties. To get the finished product right, we work as a team.”
ASK THE EXPERT
WHAT ARE YOU KNOWN FOR?
We’re known for creating a “feeling” in a home, rather than focusing on a specific style. That comes from making sure our clients’ thoughts, concerns, worries and needs are in the forefront, and everything else follows that.
WHAT SETS YOUR WORK APART?
Our stellar team. I wholeheartedly stand behind my knowledge and my work. I believe that you can have a fabulous build experience when you have crafted the right team.

WHEN JON MCGILL, OWNER OF DESIGN N MIND INTERIORS, moved his business into a 4,800-square-foot commercial space, he saw more than the expanse. He saw a better way to serve his clients.

JON MCGILL Principal Designer & Owner
“I am a licensed general contractor, so we can do everything. We’ll handle all aspects of your remodel from first design drafts to completed projects. I have vetted my subcontractors, so you don’t have to worry who is doing the work: flooring installers, plumbers, electricians, painters, etc. they’re my favorite people in the world.”

We can help.” When it comes to selecting tile for your home, consider talking to a historical expert. “We’ve helped with several significant historical projects across the state,” says Wynn.

ASK THE EXPERT
WHAT ARE CLIENTS ASKING FOR RIGHT NOW?
Square tiles are making a big comeback. Everything from 4x4, 12x12, to 18x18. We’re seeing a lot of requests for square tiles installed with offset grout lines, which is an older, more historical look.
PEOPLE COME TO US FOR
Highly customized installation. For us, it’s not just tile, it’s art. We’re doing mosaics with New Ravenna tiles in stone or glass. We’re installing tiles to look like aspen trees filled with birds. And, we just finished an accent microwave cubby to match chinoiserie wallpaper. We make your dreams come true with tile.
WHAT’S NEW AND NOTEWORTHY?
Tumbled, antique or chiseled stone tiles. For example, hand-hewn limestone tiles with rolled edges. Installations with octagon and dot (or cabochon) tiles. In historic French, cabochons were defined as jewels. Now they’re installed in the same color. It’s all about a refreshed Old World look.
Chinoiserie is part of the Sea Glass™ collection by New Ravenna.

“We’re seasoned experts. Go with someone who has experience and is authentic. With AI-assisted everything and online personas, it’s hard to get the real nature of a person or the real work being done. There’s no substitute for the real thing. Being authentic and creative is paramount to creating spectacular outcomes. Rendered interiors are impressive, but substance, quality and experience are vital.”
ASK THE EXPERT
WHAT NEW INNOVATIONS EXCITE YOU?
Discreet, quiet kitchens that function like European kitchen wardrobes. Butler’s pantries hide the mess of a used kitchen. Instead of a range being the feature element, the emphasis is on architecture. Stainless steel appliances are being replaced with color and shades of white or smoky gray glass, or completely concealed in integrated cabinetry.
WHAT’S SOMETHING PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU?
I love being in a flow state. Whether I’m working with my team on designs, or jamming out to music and picking out fabrics, it all starts to come together. It’s electric. I lose track of time and am totally present in the moment. I feel like I’m exactly where I need to be, doing exactly what I need to be doing.
WHAT MAKES YOU STAND OUT?
Our unique designs and bold use of color set us apart from the crowd. We have an incredible style range, so we can adapt to each project with creativity, efficiency and deep customization. The result is spaces that sing with each client’s unique personality.

IF YOU’VE VISITED A RESORT OR SPECIAL PLACE THAT NURTURED YOUR SOUL, you may want to bring a piece of that experience home with you. It starts with mindful design. “It’s never too early to start planning your landscape design,” says Curtis Atkinson, owner of Sunline Landscapes. “If you want to get on a reputable company’s schedule, allow for at least 6 months from the first phone call to when a shovel goes into the ground. So, start now for an autumn installation.”
Sunline Landscapes is a full-service luxury landscape design firm offering expertise for every step of your project from design and installation and/or construction to property care and fine gardening.
The process starts with a conceptual design and feedback to get a clear understanding of what clients want and need.
“Whether it’s a reimagining or a revamp, we need to know how people use the space. Is it for gathering, intimate moments, privacy or family?” says Atkinson. “We do full 3-D renderings, full construction documents, drone imaging, draining, grading plans, all the intricate details. Then we select materials and artscapes and masonry—there are so many details in these custom-created designs. We talk to architects, builders, interior designers—we’re at the table from the start complementing each other.”
CURTIS ATKINSON Owner
“The process begins with getting to know each other, building trust and fostering relationships. We explore what you need from your space. Maybe it’s for large family gatherings, or an open and athletic space with pickleball courts and a pool, or a spa-like retreat with high privacy walls and cold-plunge pools. People want outdoor spaces that help nurture connections and relationships.”

AND HOMEOWNERS KNOW that many insurance companies and municipalities now require a class-A fire resistance rating on roofs. “Our roofs are not only class-A, they are incombustible,” says Nick Evans, general manager of Bartile. “Whether you have a shake roof or are building a new home, the incombustible nature of our tile makes it the perfect product for any style of home.”
You may have heard the word incombustible. But what does it really mean? Well, the folks at Bartile took a torch to their tile roofs, as well as other asphalt and metal roofs to find out. Their roof tiles can take some extreme heat.
Curious to see what happened? Scan the QR code to watch the test yourself.
If you need a fireproof roof, Bartile roof tiles far surpass a class-A fire rating and have a 75-year warranty. Their Legendary series have a class-4 hail rating, while their other standard-weight tiles have a class-3 hail rating. “Our roofs literally last a lifetime,” says Evans. “So, you get a beautiful roof and peace of mind. We’ve been around for 84 years and many of the roofs we installed that first year are still in place. We have more than 700 vibrant colors and 20 distinct styles to choose from, so we can create almost any roof design and look.”
NICK EVANS
General manager
“Have your roof inspected in the spring. Ice and snow can damage roofs, so schedule regular springtime maintenance, especially in harsh winter climates. This will help extend the lifetime of your roof.”
ASK THE EXPERT
THREE WORDS THAT BEST DESCRIBE YOUR PRODUCT: Durable. Customizable. Stunning.
WHAT ARE YOUR CLIENTS ASKING FOR RIGHT NOW?
You don’t typically look at a roof and think ‘wow.’ Unless it’s a Bartile roof. The raked metal option with split timber wood shake profile will give you a true shake look in a Class-A fireproof product. That’s why people are clamoring for it.
WHAT MAKES UTAH A UNIQUE MARKET FOR YOUR PRODUCTS?
Most people think of tile roofs for hot climates because they are energyefficient and keep the house cool in summer. Northern Utah has an extreme climate—scorching summers and freezing winters. We’re the only manufacturer that thrives in making tile that can stand up to anything.
