By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group & Bespoke Cabinetry Expert Staying at the Arizona Biltmore is more than checking into a resort—it feels like stepping into a living piece of architectural history. From the moment you arrive, there’s a quiet sense that this property carries a legacy far deeper than its manicured grounds and iconic pools. Built in 1929, the hotel reflects a bold vision of design that still feels remarkably relevant today, rooted in the influenc

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group & Bespoke Cabinetry Expert Featuring Mason Walker, Owner of Legacy Construction When homeowners think about remodeling progress, they usually picture the visible parts of the job. Demolition. Framing. Tile. Cabinets. Paint. Fixtures. Those are the milestones that make a project feel exciting because they change what the home looks like. But some of the most important work in a remodel happens where homeowners cannot easily see i

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group & Bespoke Cabinetry Expert Featuring Mason Walker, Owner of Legacy Construction Welcome to our homeowner education series on the remodeling process, designed to help you better understand what is happening during each phase of your renovation. One of the most common concerns homeowners have during a remodel is the feeling that work has slowed down—or that not enough is happening. You walk through the space and it may look unchan

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert The most refined interiors are built through relationships—teams that understand one another’s standards and protect the details that define the final experience of a home. A remote cabinetry collaboration can be one of the most valuable partnerships on a project, not despite the distance, but because the right process brings clarity. When expectations are set early and communication is thoughtful, t

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert In luxury residential design, the most important decisions are rarely made based on proximity alone. The right architect may be in another city. The right artisan may be in another state. The right furnishings, finishes, and materials are often sourced far beyond the immediate market. Cabinetry should be no different. For interior designers and builders creating homes of distinction, the ideal cabine

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert If design is the quiet intelligence behind a renovation, construction is its physical language. It is where intention either holds its integrity or begins to unravel. In the most thoughtfully executed homes, construction is not a phase of improvisation. It is a phase of translation — where months of disciplined design thinking are expressed through material, proportion, and craft. There is a distinct

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert Long before the sound of demolition echoes through a home, great design has already begun its work — quietly, deliberately, and often invisibly. The earliest phase of a renovation is not marked by construction schedules or material deliveries, but by observation. By listening. By understanding how a home holds light in the morning, how it settles in the evening, and how the people within it move thro

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert For decades, the kitchen working triangle—linking the sink, range, and refrigerator—served as the guiding principle of residential kitchen planning. In 2026, that doctrine feels less like a rule and more like a relic. Today’s most sophisticated kitchens are not engineered around a single cook moving between three fixed points; they are curated, architectural environments shaped by lifestyle, entertai

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert My recent stay at Hotel David Whitney , a Marriott Autograph Collection property in downtown Detroit, was more than just a getaway, it was a true design experience that left a lasting impression on how I approach architecture and interiors. From the moment you enter the building, there is an undeniable sense of history and grandeur. The soaring ceilings, ornate stone details, dramatic arches, and car

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert In both kitchen design and new construction, cabinetry should be the very first step in the planning process. Cabinets are not simply storage solutions—they are a framework that influences the layout, flow, and architectural decisions of the entire home. In the kitchen especially, cabinetry determines how the space functions day to day, but in new construction, those same cabinet decisions often exte

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert When most people think about remodeling, their minds immediately go to budgets, estimates, and timelines. It’s easy to get caught up in the numbers and the desire to move fast—but a truly successful remodel is about so much more than cost or speed. It’s about the experience, the process, and most importantly, the team you choose to guide you through it. A remodel is one of the most personal investmen

By: Justin Sharer, Owner of Sharer Design Group and Bespoke Cabinetry Expert When you stop to think about what your kitchen truly means to you, it’s rarely about its price or the value it adds to your home. Its worth runs deeper—it’s emotional, personal, and tied to the rhythm of your everyday life. The kitchen is the heart of your home. It’s where the day begins—with quiet moments over coffee—and where it winds down, surrounded by family, conversation, and connection. It’s t
