Megan Casian
Interior Designer
Megan entered college as a biology major with the intent to become an OBGYN, but after her frst year
realized that she was not well suited for the major. She sought to change her major to something that
would use her creativity and attention to detail. She always had a passion for interiors but never thought
that could be her career. Megan changed her major to interior design and immediately thrived in her
coursework . She graduated in 2014 from Seattle Pacifc University with a Bachelor of Arts in interior
design.
In every design Megans goal is to genuinely refect the personality of the client in the spaces she designs.
She believes that the fnal product should result in a space that clients will truly enjoy living in not just a
good design. She also believes that designing spaces that can adapt to the natural shifts in life is impera-
tive because life is not static and design shouldnt be either. Megan is best known for the fexibility of her
designs and places an emphasis on designs that can withstand trends. She truly believes that good de-
sign can impact the mind, body, and spirit of clients which leads her to strive for excellence to accomplish
the clients design goals.
In her spare time Megan enjoys baking and cooking as well as entaining. She also loves watching and
following NBA basketball especially her favorite team, the Portland Trailblazers.

CASIAN RESIDENCE
The Casians moved from Oregon to Idaho and were looking to build
a custom home for the third time. The Casians were looking for a couple
of specifc aspects in their new home. First they wanted a new style that
would be diferent from their last home which was traditional with some
Tuscan infuences. They wanted to be able to have some customization
in the foorplan and full customization in hardsurfaces and fnishes. Last-
ly they wanted a build schedule similar to that of production home. After
some research into diferent builders the Casians decided to use Tresidio
Homes to build the home and use my services for interior selections and
drawings.

PRODUCTION STANDARD SELECTIONS
One of the most desirable aspects of residential production home
is the quick timeline. A downside however can be that the standard
products dont always satisfy other design styles. This section shows
two examples of how to go from standard spec products to products
of the same price but that convey particular design styles.

THE TILE IN THE STANDARD PRODUCTS ARE
WARMER TONES AND A BUSIER. THE TILE FOR
THIS MODERN PACKAGE HAS MORE OF A CON-
CRETE LOOK IN COOLER TONES.
THE ACCENT IN THE STANDARD PRODUCTS IS A LINEAR
STONE AND GLASS MIX. I TRADED OUT THE ORIGINAL
ACCENT FOR A 1X1 ALL GLASS ACCENT. THE ALL GLASS
ACCENT GIVES LENDS ITSELF TO A MORE MODERN
LOOK.
THE HARDWOOD IN THE ORIGINAL STANDARDS
IS A RUSTIC HANDSCRAPED LOOK. IN ORDER
TO ACHIEVE THE MODERN LOOK I CHOSE
SMOOTH FINISH MAPLE IN DARKER TONES.
BY SIMPLY CHANGING OUT THE HARDWOOD,TILE, AND AC-
CENTS AND KEEPING THE STANDARD CABINETS AND LAYOUTS
A MODERN LOOK CAN STILL BE ACHIEVED WITHOUT INCREAS-
ING THE PRICE.

ER 5/8X5/8 SIZE LENDS TO MORE WHIMSICAL
ASPECT OF VINTAGE STYLE.
IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE VINTAGE STYLE OAK
WAS CHOSEN OVER THE MAPLE AND HICKORY
