Design Concepts
Visualizing what is possible can be the biggest challenge in our spaces! This is where I can help. Whether you are considering what might be possible for a kitchen remodel, bathroom update or toy room turned home-office, my design concepts will give you approachable and impactful possibilities for your space.
Bring your ideas to life with custom design concepts
From re-thinking your living room layout to considering a full remodel, design concept planning can help you bring your ideas to life. I offer room layout planning, digital renderings and hand-drawn sketches - comprehensive design plans that help facilitate conversations with your independent contractors. Consider your design concepts a recipe for how you can reach your intended aesthetic.
How it works
Your Design Concepts
Your design concepts are delivered in the form of an interactive PDF, with links to products and resources to help you execute your design. I will work within your budget and goals for your space. And I always encourage a phased roll-out of design as a powerful way to build a layered and authentic space over time.
Need a virtual consult?
Onsite design concepts are available in the Madison, WI area and in northern Illinois. If you are not in one of those areas, virtual consults are available.
“Working remotely with Brenna was a true pleasure. Her professionalism, attention to detail and suggestions for our new home was spot on. Brenna’s design boards gave great ideas for the wallpaper, paint colors, fixtures,hardware and furniture . In designing our office, she created a hidden closet which we love. In addition, she designed a bench seat in the living room that made the space functional and decorative. Brenna was incredibly helpful in making our new home our dream home. She is truly one of a kind and we highly recommend her for any design advice. She helped make our tough decisions easy” S.M. Niceville, FL 2026

Our goal was to create an open-concept main floor that felt functional, updated, and cohesive. Through 100% remote design consulting, I provided this client with overall concepts, sketches, and color and finish direction to work alongside their contractor during a full first-floor overhaul. Throughout the remodel process, we stayed closely connected through FaceTime and text, allowing me to offer real-time feedback and guidance every step of the way, helping them achieve the open-concept living space of their dreams!
"Working with Brenna remotely on our various remodels was a seamless process... From our initial design to questions we had throughout the process, Brenna was immediately there to help - we couldn't even tell we were working with a designer hundreds of miles away! Through our consultations and other communication, Brenna was quickly able to understand our tastes and budget and created a vision of exactly what we wanted! We are thankful to have Brenna's expertise help us transform our home!"

We transformed a dated and dark primary suite into a modern, spa-like retreat - reimagining both the bedroom and bathroom as one cohesive, elevated space. Through 100% remote design consulting, I provided this client with sketches, mood boards, layouts, product suggestions, and design guidance to bring their vision to life. For the bathroom, we rethought the configuration and aesthetic entirely, without changing the footprint, ensuring the finished space felt seamless and intentional alongside the updated bedroom.

Our goal was to create an open-concept kitchen, living, and dining room with a minimalist mid-century modern aesthetic. This long-term project is an example of a phased approach to design - rolling out thoughtfully as budget allows, without sacrificing the integrity of the overall vision. I created a comprehensive design plan for this client, including suggested layouts, product and finish recommendations, room arrangement, and styling guidance.
