Ever wonder what's behind the name? It starts three generations back, with my grandfather's Terracotta pottery business in Mexico. This is part one of a three part series on why we're called Terracotta Interiors.

Next up: learning the design ropes from my mom at Potteryland, and falling in love with helping clients see what they couldn't picture themselves. Follow along for the rest of the story.

This family didn’t need more furniture. They needed a room that finally worked for them.

The sectional faced away from the light. The fireplace sat quietly on the wall, doing all the work with none of the credit. The space wasn’t broken, it just wasn’t finished telling its story.

So we flipped the whole footprint. We let the fireplace and built-in become the heart of the room. We opened up the window and let the light do what light does. And instead of one big couch trying to hold everyone, we built two seating areas, room enough for a real conversation, a game of checkers, a quiet Sunday.

Swipe through and watch this room finally exhale

Slowing down the process to spend a little more time with the details that we love.

At Colonial Goes Contemporary, the hardware and finish palette gave us another opportunity to balance the home’s classic foundation with contemporary warmth.

They may not become the focal point, but their presence is felt in the way the home is experienced every day.

A kitchen where understated beauty is part of what makes the space feel so special, with a lived-in, collected quality that comes from the warmth of natural materials and the details that reveal themselves the longer you look. 🤍

Beginning a renovation often comes with more questions than answers. Before plans are finalized or materials are selected, there is usually a stage of simply trying to understand what the process could look like and where to begin. We gathered a few of the questions that tend to come up in our earliest conversations with clients and answered them here.

If you are beginning to consider a project of your own, we would love to hear from you! Inquire through the link in our bio to join our upcoming project calendar. 🤍
