Full Property Tour

9518 N 46th Street, Phoenix, AZ

This full-scale investor project was carried out with meticulous care at every stage — from architectural plans and interior design through landscaping and staging — and it showed. The finished home shattered the community's previous record sale, drew multiple offers, and went under contract and closed in just 44 days.

8310 E Charter Oak Drive, Scottsdale, AZ Quick Video Tour

Another investor project, shaped by close collaboration between the designer, contractor, and Laura at every step. Its primary bath was honored as a Best Bathroom winner in Modern Luxury Interiors' Design 9 Awards, and the finished home sold at full price with multiple offers for another record-setting close.
