Philosophy 

Kelly Guinaugh believes that outstanding design makes life better, whether she is designing your home, work place or country club. Beauty and function come together to smooth out day-to-day living and instill a sense of confidence and being at peace. She knows that a well-designed home is a safe haven where you can relax and rejuvenate. A well-designed workplace mirrors the comforts and luxuries you enjoy at home, and makes you feel organized, efficient and productive. Always, the journey begins with you. Your life style. Your work style. Your personal preferences, interpreted and enhanced by the IEG team. Because no two spaces should ever be the same.

Process

Getting to know you is the first step toward creating a home, hospitality space or commercial project that is custom tailored for your lifestyle or work style and your aesthetic. How do you live in your home? How does work flow at your office? What are your favorite colors and how do you want to feel in your space? Critically during this phase, Kelly and her team will ask you the right questions to determine how they can make your home or work life easier, better organized and more efficient. That might entail storage solutions, a dining room designed so you can host all your favorite people for the holidays, or a conference room that better reflects your company’s image. Photos and measurements are taken to aid in the design process.

“Our family room project with Kelly exceeded our wildest dreams! Great attention to detail, worked within budget and developed a design that addressed all of our concerns.”

—Kelly Daugherty, Inverness
