Hello

Interior Designers

I'd love to collaborate with you to bring your design concepts to life through custom wooden accent walls, hand painted murals, and interior wall painting for your clients. When we work together, your design board becomes a finished space your client truly loves! 

See what my clients are saying

This client's dining room needed statement piece. and this chevron wooden accent wall WITH shelf for art is the perfect addition.

What a Collaboration Looks Like for Interior Designers

Design-led custom accent walls & murals

You share your design board idea with me, we revise as needed and then you send it to your client. I execute the vision through custom wooden accent walls, or hand painted murals. My role is to support your creative direction while delivering high-quality craftsmanship that fits seamlessly into your overall design plan.  

Professional on-site execution

I work efficiently and respectfully in both residential and small commercial spaces, coordinating with other trades as needed. Designers partner with me for clean installation, clear timelines, and attention to detail throughout the entire process. Can't stand contractors who are terrible at communication? Me too. That won't be your experience working with me! 

Before & after project photography

Each collaboration includes before and after photos that capture the transformation of the space. These images are available for your portfolio, social media, and marketing use, helping you showcase completed projects with confidence.  

Social media recognition during the project

I highlight interior designer collaborations through my social media posts and stories throughout the project, tagging and crediting your business while sharing the creative process and final result with my audience. Past partnerships have shown so much appreciation for this gesture when their follower count rises due to homeowners seeing the design process come alive. The collaborations we have, the more times your business will be shown to my followers.

Website feature with business links

When you choose to partner with me as an interior designer, you'll be featured on my website with photos, a brief project description, and a link back to your business, creating long-term visibility and added SEO value for both of us.
