E- Design for Decorating Vacation Rentals
Optimize bookings in your short term rental listings by working with me to create an uplifting, restorative and relaxing atmosphere for your guests using my E-Design Home Decorating Service. Professionally decorated STRs bring higher nightly rates.
Set decorating and shopping for film, television and high fashion shoots has inspired my passion for creating nature inspired, restorative, healing spaces. I can work with existing furnishings and do a room refresh or fully furnish a vacant home. I build customized room boards according to our create brief and cost preferences using photos and measurements of your space. Room boards, how to guides and product shopping lists are emailed to you so that you can make purchases on your timeline using retailers that ship direct to you. See below for sample room boards.
My Design Philosophy
My design philosophy centers on creating beautiful, restorative, and relaxing vacation rentals that offer a memorable and comfortable experience for every guest. I prioritize beauty and functionality, emphasizing the restorative effects of design. My approach avoids fussy, overly designed homes in favor of natural, uncluttered, and un-selfconscious spaces. By approaching a space as a guest would experience it, I aim to provide a sanctuary where guests can unwind and rejuvenate.
My style
Welcome to a space where comfort meets craftsmanship, and style is both modern and timeless. My design style is a reflection of my love for midcentury modern furniture, celebrated for its ergonomics and clean lines. Drawing inspiration from its predecessor, the Arts and Crafts movement, I cherish the beauty found in simplicity and expert craftsmanship, where every piece is rooted in functionality and practicality.
As a Taurus, comfort is paramount to me. I decorate spaces that invite guests to lounge and relax, featuring deep sofas, soft textures, and an ambiance that encourages easy living. Yet, I also believe in the power of contrast—introducing a bit of industrial edge to keep things interesting, or mixing antiques in with contemporary pieces.
I also love textiles from around the world. They add character and offer vibrant colors, textures, patterns, and a sense of global style that blends seamlessly with an overall modern, luxurious vibe. In every room, my goal is to create a harmonious blend of comfort, elegance, and unique character, ensuring that your stay is as beautiful as it is restorative. Here are some of my favorite things.
I also own and co-host a successful vacation rental property using Evolve as my channel manager.
