Seven years of Form Function Studio—and we’re just getting started. [Celebrated back in February!]

Grateful for the people, projects, and communities that have shaped this journey. We remain committed to designing spaces that connect, uplift, and elevate everyday life. The partnerships created with our clients, vendors, consultants, contractors have been incredibly uplifting and special to us.

"All Glory is to Him. I deserve nothing and he provides all we need to have impact.
Here’s to what’s been built, what we dreamed of, —and what’s still to come."

Big Love from our Studio to you!

With winter’s temporary reprieve, we’re making headway on The Ridge project in Indianapolis. The zinc roofing and wood siding are looking great, and we’re looking forward to warmer days to see it all come together.

We're back from a round of job-site visits in Indiana, and there’s nothing more rewarding than watching our designs take shape in real time.

Regular site check-ins are an essential part of our process, ensuring that every detail and material choice stays true to the architectural integrity we envisioned from day one.

Grateful for our project partners and excited to see these spaces continue to evolve.

This classic contemporary residence in Westfield, Indiana invites connection and ease in equal measure. Oriented to capture curated golf course views, the home’s layout extends effortlessly into outdoor living spaces designed for both intimate gatherings and larger entertaining.

At its core, a generous kitchen anchors the plan and its openness fosters a natural flow into the main living area, where warmth and material harmony define the daily experience. The primary suite, secluded yet connected, offers a retreat shaped by calm proportion and light.

Every detail is considered—from the walk-in w**e cellar to the layered thresholds between interior and landscape which reflects an architecture that balances performance with poetry. The result is a home where timeless form meets contemporary function, embodying the dialogue between elegance and livability.

We’re thrilled to share the architectural renderings for The Ridge, our latest residential project. Perched atop a bluff on the north side of Indianapolis with sweeping views of Williams Creek, this site was once home to the Taggart family, founders of Wonder Bread. Our design gently integrates with the existing landscape, following the contours of the ridge to frame curated views toward the creek. The home’s layout is organized along a central circulation spine anchored by a transparent entry hall, creating a dramatic visual axis while clearly defining the public and private areas of the residence. With completion anticipated in late 2026, we look forward to sharing updates as construction progresses.

A Historic Home, Reimagined —

We’re proud to share the completion of a remarkable renovation at Twin Oaks, an estate with deep Indianapolis roots.

Originally built in 1941 by Lyman S. Ayres II and his wife Isabel in the Colonial Revival style, Twin Oaks has long been a landmark of elegance. The Ayres family moved in just a month after Pearl Harbor, and later expanded the grounds with gardens designed by noted landscape architect Frits Loosten.

In 1955, the property was purchased by Josiah K. Lilly Jr., grandson of Eli Lilly. With architect David V. Burns, the Lilly family transformed the home’s exterior into a European country-house style, raising the roofline, reconfiguring the kitchen, and adding distinctive features like the octagonal breakfast room with its pepperpot roof. By 1961, Mr. Lilly had also built a special wing for his collections and creative pursuits.

Today, Twin Oaks carries forward its legacy through a bold interior renovation that balances historical reverence with modern luxury—featuring dramatic marble, gilded fixtures, bespoke cabinetry, and even a custom spiral slide.

From its historic lineage to its new chapter of design, Twin Oaks continues to be an Indianapolis treasure.
