A room that doesn’t work. A repair that keeps getting put off. An idea you’re ready to make real. That’s a good place to start.

Tillie connects the design decisions with the practical work underneath—so your home feels like yours and holds up to everyday life.

From the first look to the last inch.

The person behind the work

Care first.
Build right.

Tillie brings clear eyes, capable hands, and care for the people living with the work. She pays attention to what nobody will see once the room is finished.

Built into every project

From idea to the last detail

A clear way through
the work.

Real homes come with surprises. The plan starts with your space, your ideas, and what it takes to do the job right.

Step 01

Read the room

Find what has to stay, what has to go, and what will make it feel like yours.

Step 02

Work it out

Turn the idea into real dimensions, materials, sequencing, and a plan that holds up.

Step 03

Build it right

The hidden work gets the same attention as the finish. No skipped steps.

Step 04

Land the details

The last inch matters: trim, grout, hardware, proportion, and the feeling when you walk in.
