After buying a new home, this HR professional reached out for help designing a space that was completely her own. She wanted her home to make her feel grounded, encouraged to linger, and inspired to reconnect to herself. We brought in tones of mauve and olive, soft, rich velvets, and layers of natural wood. The result is an earthy, inviting, intentional home that the client can continue making her own for years to come.

I had an amazing experience working with Marlaya on my living and dining room project.

This was my first time hiring an interior designer. Marlaya listened to my preferences while also encouraging me to take some risks. The result- a beautiful, comfortable space that I really feel reflects my style. I’m looking forward to working with her on future projects.
