Cooler weather, football weekends, and holiday gatherings mean more time spent welcoming guests. This Cape Cod porch was designed with that in mind, creating a spot that makes hosting easy, comfortable, and always inviting.

Family, function, and forward-thinking design all come together in this Cottage Kitchen project.

We worked with the homeowners in Mountain Brook to merge their love for entertaining and their role as proud grandparents, turning the original space into a place built for both little ones and the long term. The kitchen and laundry layout prioritizes circulation, daylight, and ease of use—integral to our Aging in Place approach. With thoughtful cabinetry and appliance placement supporting safety and access, this space shows how great design can grow with you and your family.

A Spotlight on Storage

If you’ve ever lived in a home with a lack of storage, you know how frustrating it can be. What’s easy to miss is how profoundly storage shapes daily life. It’s not just “where stuff goes”; it’s the quiet architecture of calm—how mornings start, how evenings wind down, how a home welcomes the messiness of real living without feeling chaotic.

At TPD, storage is a design value, not an add-on. What needs to be within reach? What should disappear? What deserves a stage? From bathrooms and laundry rooms to kitchens and home offices, we design systems that anticipate your rhythms—hidden storage for the things you’d rather tuck away, and open storage for the pieces that make your home feel like you.

The goal isn’t more cabinets; it’s the right ones, in the right places, for the life you actually lead.

If you’re ready to create a home that supports your life, let’s talk.

Smart design, refined details, and spaces that work beautifully for everyday life.

At Carriage Place, our team reimagined this townhome with custom storage, a striking kitchen inspired by the owner’s artwork, and a serene owner’s suite designed for calm and comfort.

We’ve relaunched our quarterly newsletter, Centered!

Centered is where we will share updates from the TPD studio, along with reflections on the people, projects, and ideas that shape our work.

Why Centered? As architects, we spend much time centering things like doors, light fixtures, and furniture, but the word means even more to us. It reflects how we center our designs on the people who live in them and our mission to help families live longer in homes they love.

Take a look at the first edition at the link in bio.

Kitchens don’t always have to be white. Both our Henrietta and Kennesaw projects showcase the beauty of warm, wood-filled spaces that feel timeless and inviting in their own way.

Proof that wood can bring just as much light and character to a kitchen as paint ever could.
