Aaron + Alex, homeowners

“Dacotah Studio made our first home our dream home. We needed to rethink the kitchen and bathrooms—and Shawn and Christina took us to the next level, helping us reimagine and improve the entire flow, functionality, and style of the space.

We reached out to Shawn and Tina after a glowing recommendation from a friend. From the first call, we knew they were the right partners for us. They have incredible taste, strong professional relationships, and bring a kindness and optimism that set the tone for the entire project. We are detail oriented, opinionated clients, and they built upon our vision, guided us with care and patience, and gently pushed us forward when it was needed.

Our home had great bones but needed some big changes. They helped us understand which investments would have the biggest impact, and identified vendors at different price points to get us the quality and design we required. They were involved with every detail, from layout, to design renders, to selecting tile and light fixtures.

We renovated before moving to Los Angeles, which meant that we placed all of our trust in the project management and on-the-ground design advice of Shawn and Tina. They recommended a GC and a woodworker, and managed the relationships to ensure that communication and execution was seamless and near-constant. We had a wonderful experience with the entire team, and found ourselves missing the crew once the project was complete.

Renovations can be stressful, and Shawn and Tina made it a fun and rewarding experience. Every day, we enjoy the beautiful design decisions they helped us make. We couldn’t have done it without them, and highly recommend them for anyone looking for a true partner in their home project.”
