Mary Ann Elston's search for products for her own dream home became an unexpected path to her career in 2001 when she and her husband, Terry, a custom home builder, were building their home. They diligently searched for high-end, custom products with a reputation for high quality, for their own kitchen and baths, but were unable to find what they truly wanted in their area.
Mary Ann and Terry then realized the need in North Louisiana for a locally owned, custom, home design firm that specialized in both design and premier quality products with unique cutting-edge design features and technology.
