Crafting timeless, custom interiors that reflect your style.

Innovative design solutions for your home or business.

Who we are.

Who we are.

Welcome to Tide and Timber. We offer comprehensive interior and exterior design services, including floor plans, renderings, furniture procurement, kitchen design, and more. We draw inspiration from the natural beauty of the Lake Michigan shore and forests that line the coast near our home base.  The name is a reflection of the elements that make this region so captivating: the ebb and flow of the tides against the sandy beaches, and the towering pines that stretch toward the sky.

Our design philosophy is grounded in the principles of sustainability, organic textures, and neutral tones, all of which evoke the natural surroundings of the Great Lakes region.  We believe that design should seamlessly blend form and function, creating spaces that feel harmonious, inviting, and authentic.

At Tide and Timber, we take pride in our ability to create custom designs that are tailored to the unique needs and preferences of our clients.  We collaborate closely to understand your vision and bring it to life using our expertise and creativity to craft spaces that feel timeless and comfortable.

Welcome to Tide and Timber.  We’re glad you’re here.
