Clients & Colleagues
★★★★★
Working with Holly is an absolute joy. She brings such a fresh, soulful, and nature-inspired energy to everything she creates. Her design work feels alive—thoughtful, beautiful, and full of heart. She has a way of tuning into a space (and the people in it) that makes everything feel more meaningful. On top of that, she’s fun, easy to collaborate with, incredibly generous—and she can work within any budget, large or small, without ever compromising on style or intention. I’d recommend Holly to anyone looking for a designer who brings true spirit and creativity to her work. I just love her.

“Holly has been an absolute pleasure to work it and an indispensable partner in a full house remodel I undertook starting in late 2023 and running for about a year. I would recommend engaging with Holly throughout the process as I did and she will end up saving you from making many potentially costly or regrettable mistakes both in the layout and design aspects of a build or remodel project. Holly is easy to work with in a what is inherently a very personal set of decisions by taking the time to learn your individual style and taste and marry that will practical design wisdom. I'm very happy with the outcome of my collaboration with Holly and felt it was well worth the time and money to have her involved in the project.”

“We worked with Holly and her team to design our home from the ground up. We received such excellent treatment! We worked together for almost two years. They handled everything and never wavered. We were in such excellent hands. Taste, design, integrity, follow through, kindness, quality, patience, access to the best decor. Everything. Holly picked all of our lighting, flooring, cabinets, literally everything in our home. She listened to what We wanted, considered our taste and how we wanted an extremely modern home but still inviting. That is exactly what was delivered. I can recommend Holly with the utmost confidence. I am so pleased with our gorgeous home. Thank you Holly and team!”
