Welcome to My Home (and My Heart for Design)
Welcome to My World of Intentional Design
There’s something magical about walking into a space that just feels right—where comfort, beauty, and function come together seamlessly. That’s the kind of home I love to create—not just for myself, but for others too. I believe every space has the potential to become a sanctuary, tailored to reflect the people who live in it and support the way they live every day.
As someone who’s always been drawn to the details, I see design as a blend of storytelling and problem-solving. I’m the color queen—give me a palette, and I’ll bring it to life. My eye for color lets me pull together tones and textures that others might not imagine pairing, but that work together to create warmth, energy, and harmony.
Design, for me, is like a game of spatial Tetris—figuring out what fits where, how it functions, and how to make it beautiful in the process. I love the challenge and the creativity that comes with it. Whether it’s styling a small entryway, reimagining a living room layout, or finding clever ways to make everyday spaces more efficient and joyful, I thrive in the details and delight in the big picture.
In my own home, you’ll see my personality in every corner. I love to mix traditional and modern elements—clean lines alongside classic shapes, antique finds with fresh finishes. My go-to color palette? Think burnt orange, soft creams, crisp whites, aged golds, earthy reds, and lush greens. And always, plants. Lots of them. They bring life, warmth, and a little bit of the outside in.
This space—this blog—is a place where I’ll share creative ideas, design tips, and inspiration for curating a home that’s not only beautiful, but deeply personal and practical. Whether you’re here for fresh ways to style a shelf, make your kitchen work smarter, or simply enjoy the art of home, I’m so glad you’re here.
Here’s to designing with heart and living beautifully—
