Take a seat and stay a while ✨

The new logo isn’t a rebrand. It’s my grandfather’s handwriting.

He was a builder, architect, designer and dreamer — the person who first showed me the power of creating spaces that mean something. Before he passed, I sat beside him in his hospital room and told him I was going to the University of Oregon to study Interior Architecture. He cried a little, which said everything coming from such a strong-willed Norwegian man.

Using his handwriting as my logo makes this deeply personal. It’s more than a design choice — it’s a piece of my family story woven into every project, every space, and every client experience moving forward.

is an incredibly talented artist and calligrapher who brought this vision to life after I shared a sample of his handwriting. 🤍

Where everything has a home — even the socks 🧦
