Timeless Interior Design in a Virtual World

Expert Design Solutions Just a Few Clicks Away

You have a vision for your home. But maybe you’re not quite sure how to execute it.

This is a common conundrum for homeowners. You’ve got the Pinterest boards. You’ve watched the HGTV programs. You know that you’re ready to level up your home, but when it comes to selecting the right materials and finishes for the job, you’re at a loss. 

But the budget isn’t quite there for full-scale interior design support.

It’d be nice if you could have an on-site project manager and interior designer helping you run your renovation. But the budget and your timeline just don’t have room for that level of support. Still, you know you need help to get the final product you’re looking for without ripping all your hair out from the stress. 

That’s why we created HomeMuse.

To give you the high-quality expert interior design guidance you want at a fraction of the cost and time commitment of hiring a more traditional interior designer. We want to make the process seamless, simple, and stress-free for you from start to finish.

Did you know…?

Renovating your home isn’t just about creating your perfect space. It also increases the value of your home if you ever decide to sell it. But let’s be honest, you probably won’t want to leave once we’re done.

How We Can Help

We have three main passions – color, bathrooms, and kitchens. Coincidentally, these are also the three areas of interior design that homeowners struggle with the most.

So, while we can’t help you choose throw pillow or select a plush duvet cover, we’re here to help with the hard finishes that really increase the value of your home and make it unique. Our packages provide comprehensive guidance for your entire room so there’s no questioning or guesswork required. Everything works seamlessly together.

This typically includes:

  • Paint

  • Lighting

  • Flooring

  • Tile

  • Countertops

  • Cabinetry

  • Hardware

What you get with each project:

  • Expert design recommendations from an experienced interior designer (with a general contractor’s license to boot)

  • Access to our dedicated team and streamlined processes to make everything feel easy

  • A complete recommendations report with inspo photos of your new space and links to specific products

  • 2 rounds of revisions on our recommendations (but we bet you’ll never need them)

  • The confidence to tackle even the most complex renovation project

  • A beautiful, functional room that feels cohesive with the rest of your home

  • Color Consult

    People often think that choosing a paint color for their room (or entire home) is going to be a breeze until they get into it. There are so many options and so many undertones. The variables are endless. If you have been searching for the perfect color but come up short, let our color experts lend a helping hand.

  • Bathrooms

    Do you have a bathroom that needs some help? Maybe you’re overwhelmed by tile choices or you’re not sure what type of material to go with for the vanity. I’ve renovated so many bathrooms I’ve lost count, and I know what works – especially when it comes to historical homes.

  • Kitchens

    Your kitchen is arguably the most important room in your home, so it is critical that your renovation goes off without a hitch. From backsplashes and sinks to lighting and flooring, there’s a lot of details that go into the perfect kitchen. With our expert advice, this is going to be your favorite room.

Our Process

How It Works

Depending on our pipeline of work and how responsive you are in the intake phase, the entire process typically takes about 2-3 weeks. But we’ll give you more specific details for your project when you reach out.

  • These don’t have to be fancy or professional pictures. Snaps from your phone work perfectly. But don’t worry! We will guide you through this process, so you get perfect pictures that represent your space well.

  • After you purchase, we’ll correspond via email to ask you some questions about your home, your design preferences, and your unique project. You’ll give us all the details so we have everything we need to get started on your recommendations.

  • We put together a comprehensive set of recommendations based on your pictures and the details we gathered from you. This report includes easy-to-follow guidance as well as links to specific products from our trusted vendors. Your package includes two rounds of revisions..

  • From there, you’re ready to start buying via the links we provided. We only suggest products from vendors we know and trust to make the process as simple and stress-free as possible. There’s no guesswork when it comes to this step.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • For owners and remodelers of older/historical homes who want a beautiful, functional room that fits their lifestyles and adds value to their properties, we offer hassle-free, virtual interior design solutions that help them quickly and easily design spaces that seamlessly match the look and feel of the rest of their homes. That’s because, unlike more traditional, trend-focused interior designers, we don’t subscribe to fads but rather focus on designing rooms that feel cohesive, timeless, and connected to the era of the home. With an approach that makes interior design accessible for just about everyone.

  • HomeMuse was designed to help homeowners, renovators, and contractors tackle even the most complex project without added stress. We especially love working on historic homes, but we’re game to help with any paint color, bathroom reno, or kitchen reno projects.

  • Nope. We focus on the aspects of interior design that are going to be the biggest bang for your renovation budget. We’re talking things like flooring, lighting, cabinetry, countertops, etc. But most of our clients tell us that getting those big things nailed down makes all the other choices so much easier.

  • Depending on our pipeline of work and how responsive you are in the intake phase, the entire process typically takes about 2-3 weeks. But we’ll give you more specific details for your project when you reach out.

  • I’ve always been able to take in a space quickly and accurately. Over the years, I’ve honed that ability even further. And now I’m able to get a sense for what a space needs from just a high-quality photo. Everybody has the thing that they are good at. This is mine. So, I decided to expand my ability to help more people by offering virtual solutions that are not dictated by where you live.

  • We’ll give you a quick how-to guide after purchase. But don’t worry, we don’t require any fancy photography equipment; pictures from your phone are fine.

  • While historic homes are my passion, I do work on commercial projects from time to time. If you’re not sure whether I’m the right fit for your project, shoot us a note over on the Contact page so we can hash it out.

  • Oh yes. I want the process to be a complete no-brainer for you after you hit submit. In your recommendation report, I’ll give you a complete list of all the products I’m recommending along with a shoppable link to purchase. Plus, I’ll only ever share products from vendors I’ve used and trust. Quality and simplicity are the goal.

  • Sure. Just let us know during your intake process, and we’ll do the best we can to accommodate. For example, if you haven’t budgeted to replace the floors in your kitchen, we can keep flooring out of your recommendations list.

  • With such a tight turnaround for these projects, we start working on them pretty quickly after they are submitted. For that reason, we don’t offer refunds. If you aren’t happy with the original set of recommendations we provide, though, we do offer up to 2 rounds of revisions for each project. Keep in mind that the best way to ensure you’re happy with the final product is to give us as much relevant information as possible up front and provide actionable, specific feedback if revisions are needed.
