We believe the best homes aren’t simply renovated—they’re thoughtfully evolved.
Every home has a story worth preserving.
At Tryens & Co, we approach redevelopment with the belief that the most memorable homes are created through careful consideration rather than excess. Instead of erasing a home’s history, we preserve its character while thoughtfully adapting it for the way people live today.
The results is spaces that feel timeless, deeply livable, and connected to the people who call them home.
Our Philosophy
Thoughtful design begins by listening. To the architecture. To the neighborhood. To the way a family wants to live.
Every decision—from floor plans and materials to cabinetry, lighting, and landscaping—is made with intention. We believe restraint often creates more beauty than excess, and that homes should reveal themselves over time rather than announce themselves all at once.
Our work is guided by three principles:
Comfort.
Beautiful homes should also be deeply livable. Every project is designed to improve how a home feels, functions, and supports everyday life.
Character.
We preserve the details that give historic homes their warmth, authenticity, and soul.
Consideration.
Every decision is intentional—from layout and finishes to craftsmanship and materials—creating homes that age gracefully and provide lasting value.
Tryens & Co was founded by Tisha Tryens-Fernandes after a career leading strategy and operations for high-growth technology companies and nationally recognized interior design firms.
Working across both industries revealed something important: exceptional homes are rarely the product of great design alone. They are the result of thoughtful planning, disciplined execution, and thousands of intentional decisions made long before the finishing touches are installed.
Today, Tisha brings together strategic thinking, design expertise, and real estate development to thoughtfully transform historic homes throughout Washington, D.C.
Each project is approached as both an investment and a place where people will build their lives.

More Than A Renovation
Tryens & Co is not driven by trends or volume.
We intentionally take on a limited number of projects, allowing every home to receive the attention and care it deserves.
Whether restoring original architectural details, reimagining floor plans, or creating entirely new spaces, our goal remains the same:
To create homes that feel as though they were always meant to be this way.
Looking Ahead
Tryens & Co is building more than a portfolio of homes.
We’re building a collection of thoughtfully redeveloped properties that celebrate history, elevate everyday living, and create lasting value for generations to come.
