When we first started designing our primary suite at the Sixth Street Bungalow, these were the images I kept coming back to. A bathroom that feels collected over time. A bedroom that feels quiet and restorative. Spaces with character, warmth, and a sense of permanence.
Iâve always believed that the best design starts there-not with a specific tile or paint color, but with how you want a space to feel when you walk into it.
The funny thing about renovation is that the vision is usually the easy part. The middle is where the work happens. The demolition. The decisions. The samples spread across every surface. The moments when youâre trying to imagine beautiful spaces while standing in a construction zone. Weâre still very much in that season.
Choosing flooring. Finalizing cabinetry details. Adjusting lighting plans. Working through tile layouts.
Making hundreds of small decisions that most people will never notice individually, but together create the feeling weâve been chasing from the beginning.
Iâve learned through the years that beautiful homes are rarely the result of one dramatic design decision.
Theyâre built through thoughtful choices, made over and over again.
Weâre sharing much more of this renovation journey over on Substack-the sourcing, the design decisions. the changes, the lessons learned, and all the behind-the-scenes moments that donât always make it to Instagram.
Iâd love for you to follow along.
Comment âPINâ and Iâll send over tonightâs Design Board when it goes live. Or find it later in Between the Layers through the link in our bio.
I think people assume designers spend all day choosing furniture. The truth is, we spend a lot more time studying why certain rooms stay with us.
Why one staircase feels timeless.
Why a stripe can completely change the feeling of a room.
Why adding one modern piece to a traditional home suddenly makes everything else fee more interesting.
Thatâs what this monthâs Design Board explores. Itâs a peek inside the ideas shaping our work long before they become finished rooms. Some may be having a moment. But I have a feeling theyâll be just as beautiful ten years from now. Thatâs always the goal.
Fair warning: you may leave wanting to tent a room. I canât be held responsible.
Meet the people behind Clouz Houz.đ¤
We may be a small team, but weâre incredibly mighty.
Every project you see is the result of talented people who genuinely care about what they do. They show up every day giving their best, collaborating behind the scenes, solving problems, refining details, and working together to bring each clientâs vision to life. It isnât always easy juggling multiple projects at once, but thatâs the beauty of a small businessâweâre all invested in the outcome, and we celebrate every finished home together.
Keeping our studio intentionally lean has always been important to me. Each person brings unique strengths, and because we know each other so well, weâre able to work efficiently while giving every project the attention it deserves.
Whether youâre looking for a one-time consultation, our Signature Virtual Design experience, or full-service interior design, our mission is the same: to create homes that feel thoughtful, intentional, and deeply personal.
We recently refined our Signature Virtual Design service to deliver the same level of creativity, detail, and intention as our full-service projectsâjust structured for clients who are comfortable managing implementation themselves.
Because we truly believe every home deserves good design, regardless of the size of the project.
Grateful doesnât even begin to cover how I feel about this team. They make the magic happen every single day, and Iâm so excited for you to get to know them a little better.
This is your sign to finally create a plan for the room youâve been avoiding.
I think a lot of people assume they need to wait.
Until they have more time.
More money.
A bigger budget.
The entire house figured out.
But Iâve found the opposite is often true... Sometimes all it takes is creating a vision for one space.
One room that feels calmer.
More functional.
More beautiful.
More like you.
Because a home isnât transformed all at once. Itâs shaped through a series of thoughtful decisions over time.
If youâve been circling the same room for months and arenât sure what to do next, comment âPLANâ (or visit our website to get started) and Iâll send you the link to schedule a one-hour consultation.
