All of us have different wants and needs when it comes to our homes, but finding someone’s story that resonates with you (even just a little bit) can help you feel less alone or stuck. This is why we decided to begin a series called Client Stories. This collection of insider information on our projects and what led each client to decide on working with NKDG is meant to show you that there is an answer to your design dilemma(s). Enjoy!

New Home Design in San Diego, CA

CLIENT’S NEEDS:

Our client originally wanted to renovate their current home to include a very large primary room and seating area. By the time we found the solution for their home, it made more sense for them to purchase a new home. About a year later, our client called us to help them build and furnish their new home.

They were having trouble finding the right mix of materials, furniture, and accents that spoke to their heritage while staying within their building allowance.

PROJECT SCOPE:

Work with the builder and client to create multiple spaces that encourage entertaining while speaking to our client’s heritage and budget.
