I am preparing for a new build (they just tore our old Sugar House home down yesterday!!) and have been searching for detailed answers like this and you've made my researching so much easier. A one-stop shop for those of us working with builders and in need of a go-to source for design help! I've been cobbling together pinterest boards and screenshotting advice from blogs, etc. It's messy and chaotic keeping these notes straight! I'm so grateful to find your substack resource!! :) I am in awe of your skills, business savvy and am amazed at your eye for classic timeless design and trust your advice! Keep it up!
Hi Marta! Thank you so so much for your message. It really means so much to hear that you find our content valuable as we do spend quite a bit of time creating it. Your feedback makes all the hard work worth it! That's so exciting you're about to take on a new build! It's such a wild process for anyone (including designers) so I hope it goes as smoothly as possible. We're here if you have any questions along the way! Best of luck.
I personally don’t think it’s weird. I have T&G in my kitchen, laundry, and one bathroom and I love it. All of these rooms are separated from the other rooms with drywall by a cased opening- I think that’s key.
We love T&G for a backsplash - we did it in our Sleepy Hollow project (https://www.wdesigncollective.com/projectsleepyhollow) and we did it in our Spring Road project that we are releasing next month.For areas around the sink - you'll want to incorporate the countertop material as a secondary backsplash to prevent any water damage to the T&G - the images on our portfolio will better explain what I mean.
Hi I love this look! Where can I buy the nickel board? Thank you 😊
What width do you most often use? I am choosing between 4” shiplap or 6” nickel gap T&G in a transitional home….
Thanks so much!
For a transitional home the 6” would probably work best and I also love both. Can’t go wrong
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your time. :)

What are the standard width options for nickel gap?
Do you ever use custom widths or is that just not a good way to use up budget?
Is it weird to put T&G in just one room of your home and no where else?

Loved this—so helpful!
Same here! Worth my attention :)
Ha - I love this comment so much! Thank you Grace!
For a nickel gap look, what size panels do you all typically choose? Curious the width of each panel in the above images. Thank you!!
Hi there! Would you have a T&G type recommendation for kitchen backsplash? Or is tile the way to go? Thank you :)
