Birchwood Designs exists because we believe some of the most meaningful transformations happen in the smallest spaces.

Our passion is uncovering hidden potential. We love taking the places people overlook and turning them into spaces that become the heart of a home. By combining thoughtful interior design with custom woodworking, we create rooms and furniture that are both highly functional and deeply personal. Every project is built with care. Every detail has purpose. Every piece is made to be lived with, not simply looked at. Because the best homes aren't necessarily the biggest. They're the ones intentionally designed around the people who live there.

We’re Sean and Merri O’Brien—a husband-and-wife team of dreamers, doers, and co-creators since 2011. Our passion lies in looking at a space and reimagining it into something both functional and beautiful. We believe every corner of a home should be thoughtful, intentional, and tailored to the way you live.

When we’re not designing and building, you’ll find us out in nature, exploring and adventuring with our three girls. For us, creating spaces is more than a job—it’s a way of making everyday life more inspiring, comfortable, and uniquely yours.
