Meet Your Interior Designer
Hi, I’m Esther.
I believe the simple things are the best things. Quiet evenings on the front porch, a soothing space to wake up to each day, and classic pieces that stand the test of time.
My goal? Keep the design experience simple and straightforward. That’s why I’ve honed a process focused on:
Open, honest dialogue from the start to ensure your wishes and goals are at the forefront of the design plan.
Clear, consistent communication from the very first call to the final reveal, so you always know what to expect in terms of timeline and budget.
Partnering with a limited number of clients each year so my attention is focused and your home is top of mind.
And your home’s final design? I want it to feel effortless. The perfect backdrop for your beautiful life. Prioritizing quality craftsmanship, durable materials, and a soothing palette, we’ll create cozy spaces that are expertly layered, highly functional, and deeply personal — made for moments with the people you love.
Outside the Interior Design Studio
A few fun facts:
I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Music with certifications in home staging, interior design, and vacation rental design through the New York Institute of Art and Design and the Staging Studio.
How I learned to make your home sing.
I am also the youngest of five daughters so I learned a lot by watching my older siblings which taught me how to observe peoples tones and body languages really well.
How I learned to listen to what’s said and unsaid.
Once upon a time, I was a nanny. This came bearing the gift of a vast wealth of insight into how families function.
How I learned your home’s design can make or break your time together.
When I’m not drafting floor plans or searching for your perfect family-friendly upholstery, I’m likely unplugged and outdoors. Whether on a hiking trip to Scotland or the Grand Canyon, horseback riding, or simply soaking up a sunset from the front porch, you’ll find me with my husband, enjoying a beautiful view.
Our Guiding Principles
The best people — and the best spaces — are authentic, genuine, and down-to-earth.
We love classics. Things that stand the test of time. While we love adding touches of elegance to elevate the everyday, we know simple is best. So we take our time selecting the perfect finishes and finding the right pieces, prioritizing quality and craftsmanship, and layering them into a space that’s personalized, inviting, and warm.
Collaboration is key.
Our process starts and ends with you. We want to know what interior design elements you like (and don’t like), how you want your daily rhythms and routines to feel, and what values drive your life. Your voice and vision matter, and we take the time to truly listen and understand both.
The most important moments are lived within your home’s walls.
We design homes to nurture what matters most — creating spaces that support family time and encourage meaningful moments. Because no matter how beautiful it looks, a home’s design is only truly successful if it enhances the lives of those who live there. Every design choice is rooted in making memories together.
We treat your time and money like it’s our own.
It’s an honor to be your interior designer and be entrusted with your home and your savings — we don’t take it lightly. With open communication, transparent pricing, and meticulous organization, we ensure you’re kept informed and featured as an equal partner in the process from start to finish.
