Lucas & Stephanie Hart

“We worked with Charity during the build of our custom home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! I had a lot of ideas but needed someone who could take my vision, refine it, and guide me through each decision. Charity and her team were incredible at bringing everything together—she encouraged me to take creative chances while ensuring every choice was thoughtful and cohesive. Every detail, from the largest fixtures to the smallest accents, was selected to perfection and works seamlessly in our 
space. Our home feels like a true reflection of us, all thanks to Refine Studios and Charity’s expertise!"

Kayla Jones

Charity and her team were awesome to work with on my new build. They helped me have the confidence to move forward with my ideas and make my vision cohesive. They pushed my design forward in ways I couldn’t have done myself. They encouraged and supported me to advocate for ideas that were outside of the building team’s comfort zone. Bonus, they were just plain fun to work with during a stressful time. Highly recommend their services!

Chase & Megan Ellingsworth

"Working with Charity was a dream. She always goes the extra mile. We have worked with her on several projects in two different homes and each one has come out better than expected. She sticks to deadlines, pays exceptional attention to detail and communicates well. We couldn’t recommend anyone better to work with and we are always looking for new projects so we can work with her again!"

Absolutely! The knowledge you gain will prepare you well in advance, helping you make smarter decisions, and feel more confident when the time comes to start your build. It's never too early to learn and start planning.
