Who We Are

We are a family of four residing in the San Francisco Bay Area. Techies by background, Vaibhav (V) and I, Jyoti (J), are finally building our dream home, with our two kids, Riddhima & Siddhant.

Wanting to move promptly and balancing the timelines for a full kitchen upgrade, alongside flooring and other renovations, managing full-time jobs and kids returning to school post-pandemic, I decided I need help. Alas, after being turned down by 5 designers and given a timeline of roughly 15-20 weeks for kitchen cabinets by another, I rolled up my sleeves and decided to design my own house with help of some solid professionals in the area.

This blog is an attempt to share what I learned along the process, and how you could also Design It Yourself, if not completely do it all ;).
