We believe great taste endures, and the best homes are built around family.

April Hickman

founder & Principal designer

A tastemaker with an eye on the pulse, April Hickman brings a unique perspective on trend-forward design meets family design to AHD. For nearly two decades, she has been designing properties for families across Utah.

A wife to Brian for 29 years and a mother to three adult children, April approaches design through a personal lens: creating spaces that draw your family home, again and again.

Outside the studio, she’s known for hosting intimate dinner parties with longtime friends, curating her next French escape (she knows the bistros), or slipping away to Pasadena for a girls’ weekend with her daughters.

Our Three Pillars

impeccable execution

From concept to final install, every detail is intentional and expertly executed. True luxury is found in precision, restraint, and seamless living.

refined taste

Elevated and timeless, our work reflects an assured point of view - recognizable, effortless, and never trend-driven.

Family homes

We design homes meant to hold real life - where family traditions are built, gatherings are held and milestones are celebrated.
