The Home Study

The Home Study is a 90-minute, in-home working session designed around you, your home, and the questions on your mind.

Together, we can talk through a room that isn’t quite working, weigh decisions you’ve been considering, explore ideas for a future project, or simply walk through your home with a fresh set of eyes. You’ll have direct access to a designer’s perspective, with thoughtful guidance you can put to use long after our time together.

Make the Time Yours.

Every home comes with its own unique quirks and questions. The Home Study gives you 90 minutes of one-on-one time with an interior designer to talk through yours. Whether you're considering a single space, weighing decisions for a future project, or simply looking for a fresh perspective on your home, our time together is shaped around what would be most helpful to you.



Focus on a Space

Have a room that isn’t quite coming together? We can look at the layout, furnishings, finishes, or details and explore what could make it feel more complete.

Talk Through Decisions

Considering paint colors, lighting, furniture, or a future renovation? We can talk through the options and bring a designer’s perspective to the decisions ahead.

Look at the Bigger Picture

Not sure where to begin? We can walk through your home together, identify opportunities, and establish priorities for what to tackle now and what can unfold over time.



What to Expect

01
BEFORE WE MEET

When you schedule, you’ll have a chance to tell me a little about your home and anything you’d like me to know. No design plan or preparation required.

02
DURING YOUR HOME STUDY

We’ll walk through your home together, talk through what’s on your mind, and spend our time where a designer’s perspective can be most useful.

03
AFTER OUR TIME TOGETHER

You’ll leave with professional guidance, fresh ideas, and a clearer sense of what comes next, whether you’re ready to take it from there or would like additional design support.

A NOTE FROM THE DESIGNER

I’m looking forward to meeting you.

I believe our homes should be a reflection of the lives lived within them. They’re the backdrop to everyday routines, meaningful moments, and the memories we carry with us, and creating one that feels like yours doesn’t need to happen all at once.

My approach to design begins with understanding the people who live in the space: what you’re drawn to, how you live, what matters to you, and how you want your home to feel. During your Home Study, we’ll look at your home through that lens together, talk through what’s on your mind, and consider how it could become more beautiful and functional for the way you live.
