Our Services

Design Foundations

Design Foundations is how we start every project. It’s a 1-2 hour in-person or virtual meeting.

We’ll create solutions for your design challenges in real time, discuss project feasibility, and develop a plan of action moving forward.

Following the meeting, you’ll receive a written project overview based on everything we went over!

The Design Foundations meeting is a flat $250 fee.

Project Jump Start

“Project Jump Start” is the blueprint that turns our ideas into a tangible plan.

Once we’ve discussed your project goals and ensured it’s feasible, we’ll measure and document your space. We’ll create all necessary plans and elevations to properly communicate the design to you and the contractor. We focus heavily on function of the space during this phase to ensure your space fits and supports your lifestyle!

In addition to plans, we’ll develop a budget based on your projects’ requirements and detailed mood boards to nail down the design direction.

Full Service Design

Full Service Design includes 1-on-1 design guidance from start to finish of your project.

Once we’ve developed a detailed design plan and finalized the project scope, “full service design” is customized to the needs of your project. It can include:

-material, furniture & decor selections

-order procurement & budget management

-install & subcontractor management

Taylor, Owner & Lead Designer

I’ve been designing spaces for a living for almost nine years, but my love for design & architecture started way before that.

In 2016, I moved to NYC to start my career in high-end residential design, furniture design and staging. When the pandemic hit, I hauled it back to Kansas and ultimately started Augustine Studio in March 2021.

Throughout my design journey, I’ve realized that my true passion lies in creating spaces that embody my clients' lifestyles, personality, and unique perspective. I’m excited to connect with you!

  • Testimonials

    I highly recommend Taylor Augustine based on my experience with our recent kitchen, bathroom and pantry remodel. She gets to know you, listens and learns what you want, and manages every last detail to make sure it all comes together beautifully. We were so impressed by her technical skills and attention to detail when it came to measuring and sourcing our selections. She has an eye for colors, patterns and shapes to create a truly unique design. Her excellent communication skills and flexible, grounded personality worked well with us and with our contractor throughout the project. Our investment in Taylor’s design services was 1000% worth it, we could not have completed the project successfully without her. We love our new kitchen, bathroom & pantry!

  • Testimonials

    Augustine Studio designed and managed the full remodel of my primary bathroom. Taylor made the most of the available space, suggested materials that matched my style, and was able to pivot when the inevitable construction issues occurred. I love the result!

  • Testimonials

    We hired Augustine Studio to help us redesign our powder room, and working with Taylor was such a great experience. I shared my vision, and she brought it to life beautifully—offering a few different looks that were all so good, I ended up mixing elements from each. She helped make everything feel so cohesive and stunning. Taylor was on top of communication and transparent about the budget, which I really appreciated. Now, every time someone comes over, they ask, “How did you come up with this? It looks amazing!” And I always tell them—it was Taylor at Augustine Studio.
