We worked with TEW to help us remodel our kitchen, living room, and dining area in our 1960s split level home in Raleigh. Rima and Frances met with us many times throughout the course of our project. They really listened to what we were looking for and incorporated all of our priorities into their design. Throughout the process Rima and her team were organized, communicative, and transparent. All of the contractors and sub-contractors that were chosen by TEW did fantastic work. We encountered a few unexpected structural issues once demo was complete but TEW walked us through our options and were very clear about how timeline and budget would be impacted in each scenario. We felt informed and supported throughout our decision-making and are absolutely thrilled with the end result!
My young family was new to the process of house renovations and approaching a full kitchen remodel with a toddler was daunting.
Rima and her team were wonderful every step of the way. Stephanie created a stunning kitchen design that was truly customized to enhance our real life. She asked great questions and listened deeply to our answers, honoring the input in a way that always made us feel understood. They respected our budget and it never impacted the quality of the design. When unexpected twists occurred during construction so we had to source new material, the TEW team were eager to help problem solve and approached it as an exciting challenge rather than an inconvenience.
When I stand in my new kitchen, it feels like an expression of my heart. Not only did TEW design a space built for functionality, they created a kitchen that feels like a permanent home.
The contractor we worked with was recommended by TEW and is another example of TEW’s commitment to excellence. We had a wonderful experience from beginning to end and trusted the relationship between the design and execution.
We worked with TEW in fall 2023 to update the house we recently purchased. We cannot recommend them enough. The entire team is brilliant and the design updates to our house went above and beyond what we had hoped for. They listened to our needs and preferences and made recommendations that incorporated our thoughts with innovative and creative design elements.
We worked with Tew to redesign our kitchen, and they were fantastic! They took our very rough vision for what we wanted and needed our kitchen to be for a growing family and turned it into something both visually stunning and wonderfully more functional. They were a pleasure to work with from the design phase, through helping us find a contractor, on to putting in the final touches once all the building and installing was completed.
The TEW team recently completed a major remodel of our primary bathroom and closet. They were very attentive to our inspiration photos, and blended their own design sense seamlessly with our likes in coming up with a design we couldn’t have imagined on our own. They coordinated with their network of contractors so we had peace of mind in who came in and out of our home during the course of the project.
Design is always evolving, and so are we. Our blog is where we share expert tips, behind-the-scenes insights, and the inspiration behind our latest projects. Whether you’re looking for bold ideas, practical advice, or a fresh perspective on interiors, you’ll find it all here. Explore, get inspired, and bring a little more beauty into your space.
For many North Carolinians, “home” is more than just a place; it’s the heart of a lifetime’s worth of memories. From the tree-lined neighborhoods of Cary to the quiet, wooded retreats of Pittsboro, homeowners are choosing to stay where their stories have unfolded. Aging in place isn’t about resisting change; it’s about creating an environment […]
This post was written in partnership with 19th&CO, another women-owned business supporting women and diversity in the interior design industry. Design does not happen in a vacuum. It is shaped by culture, lived experience, and the richness that comes from true collaboration. At TEW Design Studio, our team reflects a broad range of backgrounds, perspectives, […]
Home renovations should feel exciting – not riddled with anxiety. You’ve spent months, maybe even years, warming up to the idea and fleshing out plans. But, between chasing down contractors, juggling delivery timelines, and making a thousand design decisions (who knew hardware finishes could ruin a space so quickly?), the process can feel overwhelming. That’s […]
