Design Everything. Be the goat. We are checkerboardsSTUDIOS, led by partners Emma + Geoffrey. We are partners in life.

Partners in business. Partners in parenting. Partners in all the crazy. Our backgrounds are in Architecture, but we use that training to explore all scales of design, from photography to city planning. We use our passion for great design to educate and transform our clients' lives! We love to travel all around the globe to see friends and family (and for work!). Our work is made better through exp

osure to new ideas, cultures, and people! We are an extremely mobile and virtual office. We love to meet up face to face for client collaboration and energy, but also have found that the internet makes this world a LOT smaller and a LOT more affordable. Linking up with clients and collaborators from all over the country, we can do what we do best from just about anywhere. This flexibility has allowed us to team up with spectacular people in Nashville, TN, Madison, WI, Salt Lake City, UT, Los Angeles, CA, and even Canada! (Does that make us international?)

So how can checkerboardSTUDIOS help you ?

“If we want everyone to participate in public life, we must design and build an inclusive public realm that is accessible to all.”

A nice share from Fast Company on some great new design guidelines from the American Society of Landscape Architects.

It’s about more than curb cuts. The American Society of Landscape Architecture has released a report on making public spaces more accessible, and enjoyable, for everyone.

We feel so proud and honored to support, and photograph this amazing woman. 💗

From our fav organization to support, Unravel San Diego.

Meet Nichoël Adams Dean 💁🏻‍♀️
This gorgeous Boss-babe is a jewelry designer by day and Big Sister/ Wife/ Maker Community Leader/Unravel Advocate by night (those must be some really long nights!). 💗💗💗

Nichoël, a "Type A/Nothing makes me cry" woman became involved with 3 years ago at the first SD Unravel Pediatric Cancer, Mama's Night Out event. When founder, Libby spoke, Nichoël was rivited. She was in tears. She mourned the loss of Jennifer. More importantly, she knew then that something that made her this angry and inspired such rare tears was something she had to be involved in.

Since then, Nichoël has been one of our most active volunteers. Each year she spends countless hours devoted to crafting incredibly detailed custom jewelry to gift to the warrior moms (kids' names included!) and she is also a fabulous representive/advocate for all of our vendors/small businesses. She makes sure that priorities are in the right place, individuals succeed, and that we all do it to Unravel Pediatric Cancer
Nichoël (and her team) won't rest until childhood cancer is history!

Nichoël shares so much love with this organization, give her a little love in return, go like/follow ... I hear she is an Instagram superstar and has a thing for mermaids. ;) 🧞‍♀️🧞‍♂️🧜‍♀️🧜🏽‍♂️ ✨

When you have a country summer wedding, leave your steamer at home and let the humid air flow through your bridal party gowns! It also makes for a sweet photo! 😉
