I had the joy of hiring Aryn to help finish our master bedroom in our third home and I loved the design so much, I replicated the room when we moved (we did have to change the light fixture because the one in our previous home would have been too large for our current bedroom since we don't have a coffered ceiling).

Pros and Cons of Open Concept Homes
Ever since I moved to Houston over a decade ago, we’ve always lived in homes with an open-concept floor plan.

I felt quite attached to this home because it was the first time I really got to have input into the design of our home, since our first home wasn’t a new build and our second ...
