Residential Design
Your home should work as well as it looks — shaped around how you move through it, how your household functions, and how your needs may evolve over time.
McCabe By Design approaches every residential project with careful attention to layout, flow, and spatial relationships, creating interiors that feel intuitive and comfortable from the moment you walk in. Every design considers the full arc of how a home gets used — including multi-generational living arrangements, accessibility needs, and the kind of flexibility that lets a space adapt without requiring a renovation every decade.
Whether you're undertaking a whole-home redesign, refreshing your home or starting from scratch, the process is collaborative, detail-driven, and grounded in what matters most to you — not a predetermined aesthetic.
Materials and Specifications
The materials and finishes you choose define how a space feels to live in — and how well it holds up over time. Getting those selections right requires more than a good eye. It requires a deep understanding of how materials perform in Pacific Northwest homes, where light, moisture, and lifestyle all play a role.
McCabe By Design guides clients through every material and finish decision — cabinetry, countertops, plumbing fixtures, flooring, wall finishes, hardware, furniture, and décor — always with both aesthetics and long-term durability in mind. Sustainable and energy-efficient options are integrated where they align with the design vision, not treated as an afterthought.
The result is a cohesive material palette that's specific to your home and how you actually live
Design Documentation
Clear, precise documentation ensures every design decision is executed exactly as intended — from the first elevation drawing to the final material specification.
Each project includes comprehensive construction drawings, detailed floor plans, material and finish schedules, and contractor-ready notes that leave nothing open to interpretation. This level of documentation protects your investment and keeps your project on track, whether you're renovating a waterfront home on Bainbridge Island, redesigning a Mercer Island residence, or transforming a Gig Harbor interior.
McCabe By Design's documentation process is built for the way Pacific Northwest projects actually work — coordinating across contractors, trades, and timelines so you don't have to. The result is a smoother construction process, fewer costly surprises, and a finished space that reflects the original design vision.
