In this condo renovation reveal, I’m taking you inside a newly renovated apartment designed by AKG Design Studio in Northern Virginia.For this project, my goal was to create a home that felt refined, personal, and effortless for the way my client truly lives. She has a very active lifestyle, so every detail needed to feel beautiful but also practical, from the elevated entryway and smart shoe storage to the original art, thoughtful finishes, and spaces that support her everyday routine.You’ll also hear directly from my client as she shares what the renovation experience was like and how the finished home feels now that everything has come together.This is what I love most about interior design: creating spaces that are not only beautiful, but deeply connected to the people who live in them.At AKG Design Studio, we specialize in luxury interior design, condo renovations, kitchen and bathroom renovations, and whole-home remodeling across Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and the DMV area.
