You'll want to save this for your next project
Getting ready for a home renovation is often full of many unknowns, especially if it’s your first time remodeling. You are so excited to get to the end result, but not sure what to expect in the time waiting to get there. We know that it can seem scary or frustrating at times. It can feel like the waiting is taking FOREVER.
The most important stage of your remodel – planning - is your magic time to prepare…before the dust starts flying. This phase can (and should!) take a little time. Take the time to prepare for living and happily surviving through your remodel.
We have put together a guide to share our best tips for getting your space and life ready to welcome contractors into your home. Life will be different for a while, but with these steps, you will be able to find a little peace during the chaos.

We are still working closely with our vendors and suppliers to best prepare for supply chain delays and labor shortages (unfortunately, these are still a reality) to make your projects run as smoothly as possible.

Volume 9: September
August brought us our first in-person event since life changed many months ago. We attended the NKBA Design Awards Gala where we were honored with a couple of awards of our own.
We’re all winners
We won! We won!
August brought us our first in-person event since life changed many months ago. We attended the NKBA Design Awards Gala where we were honored with a couple of awards of our own.
We’re especially proud of our 2nd place award for our Large Kitchen project as this category is very competitive. The projects this year were truly top-notch and on the cutting edge of kitchen design.
Madison in the Park is full of luxurious marble on the counters and backsplash with a tailored tile inset above the cooktop. State of the art appliances make meal prep and entertaining easier with a built-in refrigerator, double wall ovens, and a warming drawer. While the coffee bar with a prep sink, microwave, and second dishwasher bring ease to cleanup and morning routines.
The Small | Medium Kitchen category was also quite competitive, but we were proud to walk away with a 3rd place award for Cottage with a Tudor Accent. One of our goals was to add continuity in this vintage home by creating an arch opening between the kitchen and dining room that matched the existing arch at the dining room entrance. The contractor was also able to save the coved ceilings in the dining room. A custom wood hood and open shelving were brought in to add warmth and texture.
We are grateful for all our clients and winning awards is just a fun bonus. The trust our clients place in us and the hardworking contractors and vendors we work with make this all possible. Kirk Riley Design is definitely a team effort.
Thanks for being along for the ride!
Happy Fall Y'all!
