Polished
Tucked into a worn Staten Island strip mall, this aging salon was reimagined through a budget-conscious design-build partnership, leading to a celebrated reopening and a threefold increase in business within six months as clients fell in love with the space.
Bordentown Hotel
Once an aging highway-side motel, this Holiday Inn Express was revitalized through a cost-conscious, phased renovation that blended brand consistency with custom modern design - allowing the hotel to stay operational, stand out from competitors, and attract today’s travelers without exceeding budget.
The Harold
Formed from a patchwork of disconnected former uses across multiple floors, The Harold presented a complex architectural puzzle that was resolved through close collaboration with engineers, the landlord, and contractor - transforming an impossible layout into a beautifully unified, operationally efficient Manhattan bistro.
Upper West Side
Driven by a shared love of cooking, this Upper West Side kitchen was collaboratively designed to perform like a professional workspace while remaining warm and open to family life, seamlessly connecting kitchen, dining, and living areas into a light-filled hub for cooking, gathering, and entertaining.

Upper West Side Kitchen Renovation
OUR STORY
Redwoods Design Studio Architect, established in 2006, thrives on crafting spaces that promote well-being, hospitality, and comfortable living. We believe in a collaborative approach, prioritizing your vision over a singular design style. While we appreciate the clean lines and functionality of Mid-Century Modern design, we're open to exploring modern, traditional, or even a fusion of both aesthetics. Ultimately, what excites us most is working alongside you, the client. We want to hear what inspires you in a space, how you envision your business flourishing, and how design can best support your goals.
OUR PROCESS
HOW WE WORK
Our design process begins with a thorough site analysis, considering topography, climate, and local infrastructure. This is followed by programming, where project requirements and goals are defined. Position mapping visualizes the spatial relationships between different elements.
01
CONCEPT
We transform visionary ideas into innovative architectural concepts that inspire and captivate.
02
DESIGN
Collected data is then translated into preliminary drawings, which are assessed for feasibility and compliance. Finally, detailed design and documentation are prepared, including construction drawings and specifications, to ensure clear communication for the construction phase.
Our design process merges creativity with functionality, crafting spaces that are both beautiful and practical.
03
DEVELOPMENT
From blueprint to reality, we meticulously manage the development phase to ensure flawless execution and lasting impact.
KIND WORDS
Compared to the shop I was operating out of to the newly renovated boutique nail salon, the difference is huge when it comes to customer satisfaction. Everyone, from repeat clients to the new ones, loves the space so much. Your design and construction team is so easy to work with, and the job was done so quickly that I was able to open for the busy season as planned. The additional stations which I didn’t know I could have were great, more stations meant better able to serve our customers. If I am going to open another salon, you know who I will call!
