About
We cater to our clients needs and overall how they want their home to feel and function. We have signature design styles and work with each client to create a unique design conducive to their home. We have been in the home industry for over two decades whether it is a full blown home remodel, addition or working with an existing builder to creating an inviting bath retreat or culinary kitchen you can invite friends over to dine with, Home Dressing can create an environment so you can fall in love with your home.
I like to meet the client, find out what their needs are by asking some questions, find out how they live and what type of lifestyle they envision or how they want to use the space. Do not know what your style is, thats ok we can figure out your style together. Our studio works very closely with our client, we try to custom each design to our client and make a unique design to them. We stay on top of current trends and utilize our resources. We have
been in the home business for over two decades and have done complete renovations and second story additions, baths, kitchens, and even some small commercial spaces. We can even stage and our licensed to sell your house.
I believe everyones home should be unique to them and convey their personality. I also believe people a homes surroundings can enhance lifestyle, productivity or even promote well being and relaxation. It is our haven from the everyday. It is our job as designers to find out how a client wants their home to feel and provide that feeling for them. I enjoy when the client can live their style and maximize space in their home. We spend so much time in our home and it is one of the biggest investments so why not make the most of it. . I love designing homes where clients walk in, and they see their vision come to life and say this is what I was talking about.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When meeting a client I like to discuss the project, ask some questions to get a feel for the project and what the client wants to accomplish. Set a budget and see if our working styles will be a good match. Then we would set a scope of the work, discuss rate and pay and set up a time that works to start project.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have mostly hands on experience been in the home building industry and design for years. Most of my experience is new home construction for large homes. After being in the home industry watching and working with builders, lot planning and space planning and helping clients envision the home of the their dreams it came naturally to me. I also have my staging certificate and interior design coursework. I stay on update to date trends and keep an eye out for new courses to stay current and fresh.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
The boutique's hourly rate is $80 and some services we may establish as a flat fee it really depends on project and scope of services. What might work for the client and what is also cost effective for the Studio. We try to work with the client and go above an beyond for our clients and be competitive.
How did you get started in this business?
I have been in the home industry for over two decades, I have always had an interest in design starting with a project as early as middle school. We had to make plans and I just went with it. I got into Property Management to see if I would enjoy Real Estate then I got my license and over time clients could not envision space looking at an empty house. I started showing clients a home's potential and asking what type of furniture we looking to accomodate. Then staging became popular for vacant homes so I got my designation and the studio started staging our listings. This grew to where when clients were purchasing new homes, clients started asking me to decorate their new homes. I was doing this so much that it became a part of the business for the studio.
What types of customers have you worked with?
We have worked with all types of customers from all stages in their life. Some are vacation homes, most are their primary residence's for families, some are relocations and need their home move in ready, investors staging or flipping homes. Some are vacant homes to show potential or space. Some are downtown trendy condos or coastal homes. Some customers are downsizing but want efficient design. Sometimes it is a kids room, a bathroom, kitchen, sometimes an entire home renovation. Our ideal customer is one where the loyalty and respect is mutual, we put so much into a design for are clients that the most enjoyable experience is one with mutual admiration. We understand we are entering someone's personal space so we are efficient and respectful we ask the same of our clients.
