A Modern Traditional Transformation on a Tight Deadline

When a sudden job transfer uprooted an Atlanta family of six, our team at Miles and Kirk Design stepped in to deliver a full home transformation in just two months. With the complete trust of our clients and a commitment to understanding their priorities, we turned a house with complicated architectural elements into a harmonious, welcoming sanctuary.

Working alongside skilled craftsmen, we simplified and refined the design, removing overly ornate features left by previous homeowners. The result is a cohesive, modern traditional home that feels both enduring and fresh. From the elegant plaster details to the custom brass shelving, every element was thoughtfully designed to create balance and warmth.

The kitchen took center stage in this renovation, receiving a chef-worthy makeover to suit the homeowner, a former pastry chef. With marble countertops, brass shelving, and a bespoke plaster vent hood, it’s as functional as it is stunning. Hidden throughout the home’s refined beauty are practical touches designed to withstand the demands of daily life—durable finishes that accommodate four small children and a dog, and cozy spaces for family gatherings.

The heart of the home, the kitchen, received a stunning “glow-up.” With updated lighting, countertops, and paint selections, this once-dated space is now a modern centerpiece where the family loves to gather. The living room, dining room, and bedrooms were transformed with carefully chosen furniture, decor, paint, and wallpaper, bringing cohesion and charm to every corner.

The homeowner shared: "[Miles and Kirk Design] spent hours planning our kitchen glow-up and living space transformations, and they worked serious magic. The kitchen is beautiful—modern and inviting, beyond anything I could have imagined. The finishes they selected for our living room, dining room, and bedroom brought everything together, making our house feel like a home. It’s a space we love to entertain in while still being perfect for our busy everyday lives. We couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.”

This project reflects our commitment to creating homes that are as functional as they are beautiful, tailored to the rhythms and personalities of the families who live in them.
