When you design intentionally, when you design with the heart — trends, titles, and function become irrelevant. This takes place as you begin designing to how each client wants their space to feel and not just what they want to see. How it achieves their highest aspirations, how their design choices are connected to purpose, how it becomes uniquely one-of-a-kind as they are, and lastly how it inspires a radically happier future of creating new experiences and the memories tied to them.
Working with Afew will lead you to finding so much more beauty than only what you see in design choices. Our work becomes a blueprint for a more intentional you.
“Most people are in search of a beautiful space. Then there are those of us that can’t unsee how to make a space beautiful.”
— Harzat Inayat Kahn —
Afew Studio is honored to be designing in a time when the world needs a deep remembering of the old ways, centered on intentional living, when our days were slower and our connection to our natural surroundings and each other was strong and grounding, healthier.
Designing space using our Intentional Design methodology, offering our clients new opportunities for a healthier future rooted in the philosophy that intentional design can create intentional living. Our team, led by Creative Director & Co-Founder, Brian Kostewicz, begin each project with a highly collaborative process to first understand your real estate goals, and then what is deeply personal to you as it relates to your real estate project, in order to design every space with intention. From there, we create unmatched value for your real estate investment as well as a roadmap that can be used for your, or your client’s, version of intentional living.

Megan McMann / Real Estate Investor
“I’ve worked with Brian on several luxury residential remodels to take to market, and the transformations were incredible. He is forward-thinking and knows exactly what the market wants. On our last two real estate sales, both luxury remodels, we received multiple full-price or higher offers and sold at a record-breaking ppsf for the area. I believe the design choices done by Brian and his team made these properties exceptional real estate investments. I highly recommend working with Brian and his team. It’s clear he knows where to spend and where that will pay you back.”

Jessie Colby / Real Estate Investor & Licensed Agent, Utah & California
“Brian and his team were incredible. His insight on where to spend and which design choices would grow the property’s value made the process extremely comfortable, efficient and profitable. I also valued their ability to consult on the exterior and interior for the remodel plus furnish the home with exactly what buyers are looking for — so much better than bringing in a staging company who weren’t involved in the design choices of the home. Such a beautiful and cohesive result!”

Sterling & Olivia Clark / Luxury Residential Remodel Design Clients
“We loved the unique design process, shopping furnishings together and having support on every decision of our home remodel. The finished home was even better than we could have imagined!! Brian and his team thought of everything so we didn’t have to. We plan to enjoy this home for many years and hopefully even generations to come.”

Steven & Shawna Canova / Residential New Construction Design Clients
“Designing our dream home with Brian and his team was amazing! He was able to streamline the process and really added value using his relationships with brands and stores, even taking us shopping to furnish the entire home after it was completed. His team helped us with all the setbacks that can happen with new construction and we relied on them so much. We are very happy we hired Brian and his team. This really is our forever home and we couldn’t be happier!!”
