About bynum Design

Whether it’s bringing an older home into the future through chic and savvy restoration or making your design dreams a reality through new construction, at Bynum Design, telling your story and satisfying your vision is our main priority.

HIP, CHIC, AND USABLE

Focusing on creating spaces that are hip, chic, and usable, our homes are designs—not structures. That’s because we don’t build houses with rooms, we create functional and stylish spaces that make your home.

If you’re looking for home design that is authentic to your lifestyle, conscious of your budget, and marries your needs with your reality, Bynum Design is right for you. From building the city-dweller’s modern farmhouse to renovating a home chef’s culinary oasis, we strive to express your vision through design.

Call us today at 615-415-7877.

Our Services

Bynum Design offers a variety of services, including exterior design, interior design, renovation, landscape design, and design build coordination. We cater to modern values.

Unlike an architecture firm, which designs homes from the outside, making the interior fit, at Bynum Design we draw from your inspiration—targeting the way you like to live—building an exterior around living spaces.

Dee Bynum

Interior Designer, General Contractor

Dee Bynum has his finger on the pulse. Whether it’s following trends, scouting emerging neighborhoods and infill opportunities, or overseeing the development of a design project, Dee’s dedication to—or obsession with—his projects is renowned.

Dee Bynum is an asset to the appeal of this community on so many levels. His work embodies excellence, blending the past and present in a modern and beautiful dwelling, which works so well with the existing older homes in our neighborhood.
--Trish Tallon-Blanchard

A Nashville native, Dee was first a Civil Engineer in the Air National Guard, where he learned the concepts of site work, while pursuing his career in Interior Design. He worked for architectural firms for a number of years before becoming a licensed general contractor and principal of Bynum Design. He uses an innate connection to style in his design concepts, renovations, and new builds.

At Bynum Design, Dee makes it his mission to satisfy his clients’ visions. For Dee, it isn’t about creating spaces that are a shrine to his design concepts or ideals; it’s about helping his clients realize the design dreams they didn’t exactly know how to express. Dee has extensive experience designing homes, which has enabled him to work on a variety of projects.

When Dee isn’t designing and building homes in Middle Tennessee, you can find him seeking inspiration for his next design concept while traveling internationally, prepping for a photo exhibition, or hiking with his dogs. Dee also has a passion for fine wine, gardening, spending time with friends, and listening to all types of music.

Dee attended the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and he graduated from O’More College of Design in Franklin with a degree in Interior Design.

What People are saying...

Stunning! These homes make Nashville neighborhoods beautiful. Is there an overall term yet that classifies the style of modern architecture on your homes? It seems to my untrained eye to be the most distinctive and artistic style since Victorian homes. I've been wondering what people are going to call it on architecture tours in 100 years. -- Matt McKnight

Bynum Design is one of the best organizations that I have ever worked with. Dee and Victoria are an absolute pleasure to work with. I cannot begin to express how much I appreciate everything they did to help me transform my condo. They are professional, organized, patient, understanding and of course exceptionally talented. They worked to understand what I wanted and adapted their recommendations to my preferences and budget. I could not be more pleased with the final result. I highly recommend Bynum Design!!! -- CW McGee

His use of space and light express a unity of purpose throughout a home, while his attention to architectural detail begets a charm rarely seen in conventional design. He also understands the costs involved in construction and can style a project to fit your budget.
