Our Story

Life by Design Studios was born from a simple truth: when you create a space that feels aligned with who you are, everything else falls into place. That’s why our mission is to design spaces that feel intentional, elevated, and deeply livable. Rooted in modern organic principles, our work blends clean lines, neutral palettes, and rich, earthy textures to create environments that feel curated, and timeless. Every project starts with listening, because great design isn’t just about how your space looks, it’s about how it supports the way you live.

We offer a range of services designed to meet you where you are- from full service, in-person design with concept development, virtual design, and 1:1 consultation session's. Whether you’re looking for a complete hands-off experience or prefer to stay closely involved, we provide the strategy, clarity, and creative direction to move your project forward with confidence.
