REMOTE Interior Design
Want the full design experience, without the in-person visits? This is it. We create comprehensive digital design plans for your home or short-term rental, complete with detailed selections, curated sourcing, and professional styling direction. You’ll receive everything needed to bring your space to life, whether you prefer to manage the project or hand it off to your contractor to run with.
This isn’t just a mood board and a shopping list. It’s a complete design solution - custom, cohesive, and created with the same attention to detail as our full-service work.
From remodels to new builds to full furnishings, our virtual design packages give you the flexibility to execute at your own pace while knowing every decision has been thoughtfully made.
Ideal for second-home owners, out-of-state clients, or homeowners who want a clear direction before moving into execution.
Design isn't decoration. It's the difference between a house and a home.
Between a rental and a destination.
Between a space you tolerate and a space that transforms you.
— Rebecca
Design That Pays for Itself

Your vacation rental is an investment, and every design decision should work toward one goal: maximum ROI. We create properties that stop the scroll, justify premium rates, and earn the kind of reviews that keep your calendar full.
Our approach is strategy-first. We define your ideal guest, research your competition, and design spaces that position your property as the obvious choice. From durable, photo-ready interiors to styling that tells a story, we handle everything - whether you want the full white-glove experience or a comprehensive design plan you execute yourself.
Perfect for: Vacation property owners and hosts who want a competitive design that drives bookings and revenue.
Available in full-service, turnkey, or design-only.
what MAKES US DIFFERENT
Designed for Homeowners Near and Far
Designing a home from afar can feel overwhelming, especially when you're not there to manage every detail.
We work closely with our clients to understand how each space will be lived in, while handling the decisions, coordination, and communication needed to bring it all together.
For second-home owners and vacation property clients, that means having a trusted partner on the ground, someone who understands the Florida Keys, the local market, and how these homes are actually used.
The result is a space that feels personal, cohesive, and thoughtfully designed, without requiring you to manage the process from a distance.
Turnkey Design Experience
We specialize in designing homes in the Florida Keys, which means every decision is made with this environment, lifestyle, and level of use in mind.
From humidity and material durability to layout, flow, and furnishings, we design spaces that not only look beautiful but actually hold up and function long-term.
And when we say turnkey, we mean it.
We handle the final details that make a house feel ready, from fully installing and styling your home to preparing it for your arrival. Beds are made, essentials are stocked, and everything is thoughtfully in place so you can walk in, settle in, and immediately enjoy your space.
the process
what should i expect at the start?
-
After you fill out the Inquire Form, we’ll set up a free discovery call to explore your vision. No pressure - just a friendly chat to ensure we’re the right fit.
-
We start with a thorough consultation—either in person or online — We’ll get to know each other, learn about your project scope, budget, and timelines. After we’ve got all the details of your design hopes and dreams, we’ll create and send over a design proposal with all the details and the estimated cost of your project.
-
Then, we’ll outline the contract, scope of work, and investment details to ensure everything is clear. Once the contract is signed and the deposit is submitted, we’ll start onboarding. Now the fun begins! You'll fill out a questionnaire to refine the design, while we gather measurements, inspiration, and key details to kick off the project.
-
The design process is where the magic happens! Depending on your project and service, you could expect floor plans, mood boards, material selections, architectural review, and ensuring it all aligns with you and your goals.
