Calek Streeting Bungalow Living Room Gallery Wall! I'm envisioning a couple of cute vintage chairs, a cool lamp, and a lot of family artwork and pictures.

Calek Streeting Bungalow Mudroom Built-ins! We have a very small entry vestibule at our front door. We can't make it any bigger, but I think with some built-ins and a bench, we can make it function better!

We've had issues with our stairs for a while and have done some DIY patch jobs in the past, but it is time for a proper fix. We're planning new concrete stairs, rebuilt brick wing walls, and new handrails.

Calek Streeting Bungalow Valentine’s Vibe. Dan and I met at a party shortly after Valentine’s Day 15 years ago! It's always nice to share a special Valentine’s celebration at home with our kiddo.

Lately, I've been working on our 2025 renovation plans, and it is taking me forever to get anything done because all I want to do is select finishes.

January photo dump. It felt like we were in hibernation mode all month, but between wrapping up construct on my clients midmod kitchen reno and lots of fun family activities, it was a nice (but looooong) month. Check out calek.com/blog for more!

With Valentine's Day a couple of weeks away, I've been thinking about how we'll celebrate. I met Dan at a Valentines party many years ago. Now, it reminds me of the start of our relationship, and I love to share that joy with our kiddo. Read more over at calek.com/blog.

I find design trends so frustrating, especially when it comes to your own home. I definitely pay attention to trends and have my own style preferences. But at the end of the day, how you design your home should be about you, not someone else.
