Kitchen + dining area refresh (Belynda Chen Interiors

June 01, 2026 in Interiors

Belynda Chen Interiors took this kitchen and dining area and redesigned them to create better flow and use of the space.

She changed the orientation of the island and moved the dining area to the window so that more storage could be added along the main kitchen wall. She also removed a small wall to open up the new dining space and added a banquette for more seating.

A portrait of the husband and wife team behind Sonnihaus, a Canadian 3D printing company for home decor and planters

Business branding: Sonnihaus

April 11, 2026 in Business, People, Lifestyle

Sonnihaus is a Korean-Canadian husband and wife team who designs and creates 3D-printed home decor and planters. Their collections are often influenced by their Asian roots, which can be seen in the shapes and features. Each piece is both functional and decorative, which blends in as storage, but stands out as decor.

They were recently in Cocolily Magazine in an article called Sonnihaus: Where memory meets form.

Off-white L-shaped kitchen and a large island with black lower cabinets. Two scalloped pendants hang above.

Refreshed kitchen and dining (Belynda Chen Interiors)

March 01, 2026 in Interiors

Belynda Chen Interiors refreshed this kitchen by removing a small wall and the original kitchen peninsula to open up the layout of the kitchen. The new kitchen island now creates a better flow throughout the space.

The kitchen island stands out with its black base cabinet and fluted detail to create contrast between the rest of the cabinets.

This kitchenette was designed with a specific person in mind for convenience and safety.

This bathroom is a special one because it was designed by @creativedesigntherapy to be more accessible. I loved photographing it and I hope to see more inclusive design like this.

There are many ways to create a space that is inclusive so here are a
