Browne House Interior Design

08/25/2025

After much reflection, I’ve made the difficult decision to close Browne House Interior Design.

This season is calling me to focus on my health and to step into a new chapter, even if I don’t yet know what that looks like.

I can’t let this moment pass without sharing how profoundly grateful I am. To my clients who trusted me with their homes, thank you for welcoming me into your lives. Being part of creating spaces where families gather, celebrate, and rest has been one of the greatest honors of my life. The beauty of this work has always gone far beyond furniture and finishes. It has been about connection, trust, and the privilege of shaping the backdrop for your memories.

Along the way, this journey has shaped me as well. It has stretched my creativity, deepened my resilience, and taught me that the heart of design is really about serving people, not just shaping spaces.

To my collaborators, friends, and family, your support, referrals, encouragement, and belief in me have lifted me in ways I can never fully express. And to my husband, Kurt - thank you for supporting me in ways that are beyond words. I am eternally grateful for your encouragement, patience, and love through every season of this business.

Design has given me so much more than a career. It has changed the way I see the world and the way I experience community. I will carry these lessons and relationships with me into whatever comes next.

With love and gratitude,

Rachel

Happy New Year! Bringing new inspiration from recent travels into 2025. Excited for all that's in store 💕

I know July started last week, but with an extended holiday to kick it off, it feels like the month is JUST getting started! Reflecting on June, we had an amazing time in Nashville, where we joined my parents at my dad’s military reunion. Kurt and I explored the city, and one of the highlights was visiting The Hermitage—the home, gardens, and burial site of President Andrew Jackson. We were able to tour the beautiful interior, but unfortunately, no photos were allowed inside due to preservation rules.

Excited to see where July takes us!

Every room needs a plop chair or two—a chair that, when the workday is done, you can just plop yourself into while contemplating the day and what's for dinner.

BHID heavily relies on referrals, and we are incredibly grateful for those that have brought us amazing clients. Now, we’re reaching out to our circle of friends and followers to ask for referrals to fill our roster for the rest of the year.

If you have been moved by our work and our timeless, casually sophisticated southern aesthetic, we would love to help you or someone you know create a beautiful environment. Our calling is to design spaces that are unique, restful, and inviting for friends and family, with Southern hospitality at the heart of our designs.

We believe in the power of layered neutrals, natural elements, antiques, and quality materials to achieve a design that lasts. Our philosophy is to add to your furnishings and décor over time, rather than constantly replace them. However, we embrace trends in easily replaceable items like pillows, knick-knacks, and other decorative accents. For construction projects, we design with longevity in mind.

Though we are based in Austin, we have worked with clients across the country—in San Francisco, Dallas, Houston, New York, and beyond. If you know someone who appreciates our approach, we would love to connect with them to share more about our design process.

Feel free to message directly through Instagram or email us at [email protected].

“Last week, we shared some ideas for functional kitchen décor. In the larger scheme of things, all décor has a functional purpose – sometimes for a truly practical purpose, and other times for an aesthetic purpose to balance out a space. Our clients typically come to us with ideas they’ve considered over time for addressing their aesthetic and functional needs, and we love surprising them with an unexpected solution.”

The kitchen is the best place to utilize functional décor. You can hit two targets with one shot by styling your space AND keeping your most used tools and essentials easily accessible and organized. Check out our blog about function kitchen decor via the link in our bio.
