The Palm Beach Style That’s Trending

Why We’re Exploring the Palm Beach Courtyard Look This month, we’re taking design cues…

A little life + work lately, in no particular order🗒️
1. A lot of coffee as of late! This is my new version of going to HH.
2. Sun Valley Saddle House movie + game room update: that green painted trim is doing so much for this space. The pool table is going here and it’s about to be such a cozy, rustic cabin moment.
3. The floral sofa is honestly everything in this den in our virtual project in Pennsylvania. It’s giving old-world, collected, and perfectly not-too-serious
4. Taken at the Leiper’s Fork Distillery! When you live in Tennessee you kind of just become a whiskey person... it’s a rule apparently.
5. Same weekend, same distillery but make it family time. One of those slow, happy in-between moments I love.
6. The Westman Hotel just opened in downtown Bend! Obsessed with how this new hotel honors the old post office building. So thoughtful and so cool. Have you been?
7. Work OOTD: casual and layered
8. Site visit lunches aren’t glamorous. Just me + design plans + whatever | can eat between meetings and emails.
9. Still not over this @bedrosianstile install in the guest bath at our home. The marble curb in the shower makes it feel so elevated and fresh.
10. @hankscoffeestation is my current morning saving grace. Truly keeping me functioning

A little bit of design, a little bit of real life, and a lot of things I’m grateful to be working on right now.🤍

Designing your own home while running a business is a very specific kind of chaos. Timelines stretch, things get put on the back burner, and progress happens in tiny waves. There’s no rule book for this (as a personal project) and I’m constantly reminding myself that nothing is wrong just because it’s slow.

These videos are my way of zooming out. Because the truth is... we’ve come so far. Even when it doesn’t feel finished yet, even when rooms are still a few months away from being fully usable, there’s so much happening under the surface. This is creativity doing its work. And I’m trying to leave stress behind and actually enjoy watching it unfold.

Designing for our homes is one of my favorite things to do, but also the hardest. When it’s your space, you have a million ideas, a million things you want to try, and no one else to blame if you change your mind. But that freedom is the magic. I love client work, truly, but there’s something so special about not having to defend every decision or worry about someone second-guessing the vision.

This is how design is supposed to feel: trusting a direction, letting it evolve, not taking it so seriously that you squeeze the life out of it. When you collaborate instead of control, when you give the process room to breathe, that’s when the real Clouz Houz look shows up.

Comment “PARIS” to get the links🤍

This month’s Location Design is built around that Parisian apartment mood. It’s that quiet mix of elegance and ease that makes a space feel romantic but still livable.

Every item in this board was picked because it carries that energy: the kind of lighting that softens a room, furniture that invites you to linger, and details that make even a simple moment feel special.

We say it often (and we’ll keep saying it!) because it’s the most essential piece of creating a home you truly love: it should be a reflection of you. The most timeless spaces aren’t just beautiful, they’re personal. They carry your story, your rhythm, your values. That’s what makes a house feel like home.

Ready to love where you live? We’re now accepting new clients for Q1 of 2026.

Great design isn’t rushed — and we’re okay being booked out because of it. There’s a reason we only take on a few new construction or full home renovations each year!

Our complete home design plans help you avoid costly mistakes, impulse buys, and “why doesn’t this feel right?” moments... with both budget-friendly and elevated options built in.

We’re currently booking into Q1 and would love to see if your home is a fit.

If your house feels a little off right now, it’s usually not because you need more stuff... it’s because what you have isn’t working.

Comment ‘RESET’ and I’ll send you the home reset list we always start with.

Think: containers that make your pantry make sense, closet tools that stop the chaos, bathroom pieces that keep things out but still pretty, and outdoor pieces that help you get ahead of spring instead of scrambling for it. Sometimes it’s the simplest fixes that make your home feel more like a representation of you!
