Project Vision
Designing for Luxury & Longevity
The vision for the Pickens Project was to expand and refresh a beloved Camp Logan property while maintaining the neighborhood’s architectural charm. The homeowners sought a space that balanced timeless elegance with modern function, integrating durable, high-end finishes that could withstand daily living and Houston’s humid climate. Every selection—from flooring texture to countertop veining—was guided by the principles of lasting beauty, ease of maintenance, and cohesive design flow.
Flooring
Hand-Scraped Wood Floors with Aluminum Oxide Finish

Serving as the foundation for the entire interior design, the hand-scraped wood floors bring warmth and tactile richness to each space. Their organic texture adds depth and character, while the Aluminum Oxide finish provides a durable, scratch-resistant layer that helps preserve their beauty for decades.
Benefits:
- Resists wear from high foot traffic, pets, and daily activity.
- Conceals small dents or scratches thanks to the hand-scraped texture.
- Pairs well with both modern and traditional furnishings, making it a versatile design choice.
These floors also help regulate interior temperature, adding comfort to Houston homes during hot summers and cooler winter months.
Countertops

Cambria Mersey – Kitchen (3 cm)
In the kitchen, Cambria Mersey takes center stage with its deep, glossy black base infused with shimmering quartz flecks. It captures light beautifully, offering both drama and refinement. Its non-porous surface resists stains, making it as practical as it is luxurious.
Cambria Berwyn – Main Bath & Utility (2 cm)
For the main bath and utility areas, Cambria Berwyn introduces a calming palette of whites, creams, and muted greens. This colorway enhances the spa-like ambiance of the master bath, complementing the polished Kohler fixtures and serene design elements.
Cambria Skye – Stairs (3 cm)
The stair surfaces feature Cambria Skye, a bold statement material with striking blue and white patterns reminiscent of ocean waves. This choice adds artistry and individuality to a functional area, transforming a simple staircase into a design focal point.
Cambria Grey Limestone – Half & Secondary Baths
Cambria Grey Limestone provides understated elegance in the half and secondary baths. Its soft veining and neutral tones offer a timeless look that coordinates effortlessly with various tile and fixture styles.
Fixtures

Kohler Master Bath Fixtures
The master bath’s Kohler fixtures merge technical precision with design elegance. Known for their innovation and durability, Kohler products elevate daily routines with smooth operation, ergonomic handles, and water-efficient performance. The chosen finishes reflect light softly, complementing the surrounding Cambria Berwyn surfaces and creating a serene, spa-level environment.
Paint
Sherwin Williams 7005 Pure White
Walls throughout the home are finished in Sherwin Williams 7005 Pure White, a crisp and versatile hue that brightens rooms, enhances natural light, and creates a consistent visual thread from one space to the next. It provides the perfect backdrop for the bold countertop choices and the rich tones of the hand-scraped wood floors, allowing each material to stand out without competing.
Interior Design
BKD Interiors’ Cohesive Vision
The design team at BKD Interiors orchestrated a seamless blend of color, texture, and form.
