One of our clients recently told us he won’t put an offer on a house until we’ve walked it first.

It perfectly captures what many of our client relationships become over time. We’re invited in before the design work begins (sometimes before the property is even purchased) to help see what a home could be and whether it supports their needs.

Over time, we become more than designers. We become trusted advisors and resources, helping our clients make thoughtful decisions about their homes and the investments they make in them.

To be trusted with that perspective is one of the most rewarding affirmations of the experience and vision we bring to our work.

It's a common hesitation we hear from clients when it comes to leaping into a design project.

That's why we created our Design Preview. A crucial step (before committing to the entire design process) where we take the time to explore your home's potential and clue you in on how the rest of our journey together will look.

What’s Included
• In-depth discovery meeting
• Curated visual direction (mood boards)
• Preliminary layout and spatial considerations
• Early investment guidance
• A clear roadmap forward

By the end of this phase, you'll walk away with a better understanding of your project and what's involved.

There's no pressure to move forward, and no surprises waiting around the corner. Just the knowledge and confidence to make an informed decision before the full journey begins. Visit the 'Services' section of our website to learn more.

Yes, you hire us to create a beautiful home.

But the 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 luxury is having someone handle everything else it takes to get there, without holding it all yourself. →

We’ve been putting the finishing touches on this ranch remodel, and she’s getting cozy.

Set against a beautiful golf course, the house started with great bones: vaulted open-beam ceilings, warm wood and collected antiques. Our assignment? Play up the charm, introduce a grounding palette and cohesively pull it all together.

The result? A layered mix of plums, grey-greens, pattern and texture with gathering spaces designed for every occasion.

She’s already hosted her first tee-time toast.

We spent the day in the , pulling rugs and textiles; plenty of inspiration for what’s ahead. Consider this a little preview of future mood boards.

This home may be small, but its heart is anything but.

We refreshed our client's precious San Gabriel cottage with a medley of harvest-inspired hues and dreamy pastels; a gradient of personality. A unifying Hamilton Blue creates continuity throughout each room.

They wished to cherish the home's original 1930s character, and we were happy to oblige. We were even able to reuse original hardware and light fixtures, too. The family's personal (and colorful) art collection lives happily amongst this charming backdrop. In fact, many of these pieces were created by their son.

The home is finished. Today is about telling its story.

You'll find us rearranging the coffee table decor, adjusting florals, moving accessories from room to room, and patiently waiting for the light to reach the arched shower just the way we imagined.

These final details matter. They're what help communicate the 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 of a home, not just how it looks.

Character Cottage is almost ready. Stay tuned.

Turns out my trickiest client yet is my oldest own daughter.

Unlike all her friends heading to schools stateside, armed with dorm floor plans, dimensions and TikToks documenting every square inch, St Andrews provides… none of that.

No floor plan. No dimensions. No reliable photos. No real idea what room she’d even be moving into.

So my very Type A daughter practiced deep breathing for several weeks, and we flew to Scotland with little more than her clothes and a vague promise from me that we would figure it out.

What followed was a whirlwind week of travel, St Andrews welcome events, shopping without a single dimension for reference, and attempting to furnish a room we had never seen.

And between Ikea, local hardware stores, Home Sense (their version of Home Goods), TKMaxx (that one goes without saying), and goofing off with her sister, we did it.

One of my most discerning, exacting clients is officially installed at the University of St Andrews.

I carried home empty suitcases and an even emptier heart. I’m still trying to figure out what time zone I’m in, while she has taken to Scottish university, and pub-life like a literal fish to water.

Apparently the client is very happy with the install.
And has already moved on without her designer. 😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The origin story of our design philosophy lives here, within the walls of an auction house.

My mother’s penchant for collecting, and the fond memories tethered to her hobby, inspire a core belief that we embody at Coco Maison: design and emotion are inseparable.

We search for a sense of belonging in the details. An original terra cotta fireplace in a Spanish Revival home, or a cherished collection of tartan that speaks to a client’s rich heritage. Each element of home must serve both function and feeling. That is when design is its most impactful.

Most of our clients don't come to us because they lack ideas.

They seek guidance because they're overwhelmed by the sheer number of decisions in front of them.

Where should the budget go? What should stay? What should change? Which opportunities are worth pursuing, and which will lead to regret later?

A home renovation or new build isn't just a design exercise. It's hundreds of interconnected decisions, each influencing the next.

We serve as a seasoned guide and steady voice throughout a process that can otherwise feel overwhelming.
