Bryn Mar, PA
"Working with Liz and her team was an easy decision. They listened to our needs and thoughtfully designed our spaces in a way we could not have achieved on our own. We loved the collaborative nature of their process and as a young family, appreciated their communication and organization. Their vendors were top notch, experts in their craft, friendly, and reliable. LWH took the time to understand what "home" means to us.

The Project
For this family of four, staying in their beloved Bryn Mawr neighborhood meant transforming their home into a space that could evolve with them. Rather than starting fresh elsewhere, they chose to invest in a home that already held so much meaning. The renovation included a reimagined kitchen, dining
For this family of four, staying in their beloved Bryn Mawr neighborhood meant transforming their home into a space that could evolve with them. Rather than starting fresh elsewhere, they chose to invest in a home that already held so much meaning. The renovation included a reimagined kitchen, dining space, bathrooms, and a full basement—each room reflecting their appreciation for culture, color, texture, and the rituals that define family life. The kitchen, in particular, was central to the vision—a space designed for connection and conversation, where meals become moments and relationships are nourished.

Our Approach
With a foundation of mutual trust and a personal relationship already established, this renovation became a true collaboration, built on shared values and thoughtful intention. Every inch of the home was reimagined to maximize functionality without compromising style. Nowhere was this more apparent than in the basement, where Adam—standing 6’8”—needed a space that could comfortably support daily life. We strategically redesigned the unfinished area to include a bedroom, full bath with a soaking tub, laundry, kitchenette, and media space, all while ensuring generous ceiling height and an open feel. Paired with refined yet approachable design throughout the kitchen and bathrooms, the result is a home that feels as warm, layered, and deeply personal as the family who lives there.
