the bhy home project
Next Chapter
After leaving an abusive marriage, I built my first home on my own and created safety, stability, and a new foundation for me and my sons.
Design Application
I intentionally designed every room to reflect the woman I was becoming. Calm. Sovereign. Self trusting. I used space as a daily reinforcement of identity.
Outcome
The transformation did not just change the house. It changed me, and it became the foundation for Best Her Yet.

Kid's bedroom "before."
Kid's bedroom "before."
The happiest little powder room!
The kids' bathroom "before."
The kids' bathroom "before."
I'm obsessed with how the kids' bathroom came out.
The living room "before."
I had these build-ins added after I moved in and don't regret it one bit!
I added this shelf with simple materials from a hardwood store. It makes all the difference to have a drop zone when first entering the home.
