architect + fabricator
Derek is a licensed Architect who is extremely skilled at space planning and visualizing the three dimensional volume of a space down to the finest of details. He fabricates industrial planters and creates beautiful custom furniture pieces for clients all over the country.
He loves building furniture, playing golf, cycling, woodworking, cooking out on the grill, watching documentaries, playing with legos, binge watching shows as a family, and trying to cope with the fact that he'll always be second fiddle in the eyes of their dog.

interior designer
Catharine is a Registered Interior Designer striving to bring good design into the homes of Dallas and surrounding areas. She has a background in commercial and hospitality design, but her true passion is residential. It's just more personal. She believes that your home should be your place of respite and inspiration. It should reflect who you are as an individual or family. You know that really cool hotel you stayed in last summer, and how it made you feel? With her help, that could be the way your home feels all the time.
She loves being a mama to the sweetest baby girl, and raising her to be a strong and confident tiny human. She enjoys thrifting for vintage finds, hot yoga, taking their rescue pup for long walks, searching for the perfect lavender latte in the city, dreaming of the next road trip to Marfa, tending to their cacti, and hoarding children’s books.
