About the Studio

One trusted partner, all year long.

Taylor brings a trained eye and real respect for craft to every home, whether that means redesigning a full living space in spring or dressing the foyer for the holidays with a twelve-foot tree.

Color is where every design begins. Taylor builds a custom palette around you, your home and the feeling you want each space to have, choosing every shade with purpose and pairing it with the right textures and finishes. That palette can go two ways. Each room can have its own palette, so every space has a distinct personality while still feeling connected to the rest of the home. Or one palette can carry through every room for a seamless, monochromatic look that feels calm and cohesive from end to end. Either way, the result is a room that feels considered rather than decorated.

Every project starts with how you actually live: where the light falls through the day, where people naturally gather, and what should stay out of sight. The design is built around those details, so the finished space is beautiful and works for your life.

From the first walkthrough to the final styling day, you work directly with Taylor. That one point of contact keeps every decision consistent, so your home stays cohesive from room to room and season to season.

01

One trusted partner, year-round.

Not a seasonal tree service, and not a designer who disappears after the reveal. We are with you through every room and every season.

02

Timeless, not trendy.

Our classic sensibility means your home, and your holiday styling, stays elegant for years, never dated in twelve months.

03

A cohesive story, not an add-on.

Your tree and holiday decor are designed to complement the home we built with you, down to the palette and finishing touches.

04

A relationship that grows with your home.

Many clients started with a single room and return year after year, for a renovation, a refresh, or the magic of the holidays.

Meet the Designer

Taylor Hughes-Akinsanya.

A young studio with a designer's eye and a genuine love of craft, brought to every space we touch, whether a living room redesign in March or a twelve-foot tree in your foyer come December.

Taylor works in a restrained, monochrome language, off-white plaster, greige linen, dark oak, and matte black, layered so a room feels considered rather than decorated. Every plan starts with how you actually live in the space: where the light falls, where people gather, what needs to disappear.

From the first walkthrough to the final styling day, you work with the same person, and that continuity is what keeps a home consistent season after season.

What We Do

Interior Design Services.

Every home should feel like it was designed for the people who live in it. Whether you're refreshing one room, redesigning the home you're in, or building new, I work with you to create spaces that are both beautiful and practical, and that are distinctly yours.

Beyond the home, I also plan and style events, creating thoughtful settings for gatherings in your space or at another venue.

01

Full-Home Design

For lived-in homes and new construction

  • —A cohesive design plan across every room, so the whole home feels connected
  • —Space planning, furniture layout, color palettes, finishes, lighting and decor
  • —For homes you already live in: working around your daily routine, and making the most of pieces you love while bringing in new ones
  • —For new construction: guidance on finishes and selections from start to finish, so the home is move-in ready and fully styled
02

Single-Room Design

Focused design for the spaces that matter most to you

  • —Kitchens: layout, cabinetry, countertops, backsplash, hardware and lighting
  • —Living rooms: furniture arrangement, comfort, flow and a space built for gathering
  • —Bathrooms: tile, fixtures, vanities and storage for an everyday retreat
  • —Butler's pantries: smart storage and finishes that turn a working space into a showpiece
  • —Bedrooms: calm, personal spaces with thoughtful layout, textiles and lighting
03

New Construction Plan Review & Customization

Make a builder plan feel custom, not cookie-cutter

  • —A detailed review of your builder's floor plan before construction begins
  • —Recommended changes to layout, room function, storage, window placement and flow, so the plan fits the way you actually live
  • —Upgrades and design details that add character and set your home apart
  • —Design direction to share with your builder, so changes are made early, when they cost the least
