Welcome
Since 1993, we've been chatting about your favorite place - your home! Building YOUR perfect nest is something we take very seriously, so pull up a (stylish) seat and let's talk........
A Gallery Wall That Breaks the Rules (and Feels Better Because of It)
A fresh take on the classic gallery wall—layered artwork, imperfect spacing, and a soft blue paneled backdrop create a collected, personal look that feels anything but stuffy. See how we mixed vintage and new pieces to bring life to this historic home’s hallway.
Designing the Most Popular Room in the House
Designing the most popular room in the house starts with a layout that truly works for your family. In this cozy, functional living room, we share how to layer comfort, durability, and smart furniture placement—so your space can handle everyday life and still feel beautifully pulled together.
A Kitchen That Beats with Style and Sophistication
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and this one beats with style and sophistication. See how we balanced rich walnut cabinetry with crisp white elements and brass accents for warmth. We share our secrets for adding visual interest with textured wallpaper, marble-look quartz, and a pop of deep green—designing a kitchen that works just as hard for weeknight dinners as it does for seamless entertaining.
Designing a Screened Porch That’s a Year-Round Sanctuary
A screened porch can be so much more than a seasonal space—it can become a true year-round sanctuary. In this design, we share how to layer cozy seating, durable materials, and thoughtful details to create an outdoor room that feels just as inviting and functional as the inside of your home.
Taking Risks That Transform a Room
We love a client who's ready to embrace a bold design moment! This dining room is proof that taking risks pays off. The custom wood wall treatment transforms the entire space into a work of art. The organic, flowing pattern creates drama and movement while the shiplap ceiling, upholstered chairs in a sophisticated leaf motif, and rich navy drapes ground the room in elegance. This is dining with personality, a space where every meal feels like a special occasion and every gathering becomes a celebration of both great taste and fearless design.
A Calm & Nature-Inspired Transformation
A primary bedroom should be a true escape, and this space delivers serenity in spades. The botanical wallpaper sets a tranquil, garden-inspired tone while the natural cork headboard and layered neutral linens create a cocoon of comfort. We love how the geometric rug in sunny gold and charcoal adds just the right amount of visual interest without overwhelming the peaceful palette. A bubble chandelier, cozy window seat, and perfectly placed reading chair complete this restful retreat. This is a room that invites you to slow down, take a deep breath, and truly unwind.
Setting a Joyful Holiday Table (Without Overthinking It)
There’s something about a holiday table that sets the tone for the whole gathering. It’s where stories are shared, candles are blown out (sometimes accidentally), plates get passed family-style, and memories quietly take root.
The Power of Texture: Designing a Family Room That Truly Embraces You
New Arrivals for a Collected Fall Home: Artisan, Vintage & Timeless Finds
This week’s new arrivals strike that perfect balance of old and new — handcrafted pottery, vintage art, and beautifully textured textiles designed to bring character and comfort to your home.
Each piece was chosen for its versatility and substance — the kind of item that fits seamlessly into a layered, lived-in space and only gets better with time.
A Porch Reimagined: From Underused to the Heart of the Home
Every home has that one space with untapped potential — and for this long-time client, it was the porch. It had great bones and beautiful views, but it just wasn’t functional for how their family lived. Too small for gatherings and too exposed for comfort, it often sat empty — except for the occasional summer dinner when the weather was perfect.
We knew this space could be so much more.
Before & After: A Dining Room Transformation for a Color-Loving Client
At A Nested Home, we believe that every room should tell a story about the people who live there. For this project, our client came to us with a request that was music to our ears: create a vibrant dining room transformation that matched their love of color, pattern, and personality.
From Cramped to Custom: A Fresh Take on Family-Friendly Kitchen Design
This family had just moved in when it became clear: the kitchen needed a complete overhaul. The home checked so many boxes, but the existing kitchen—dark, cramped, and dated—stood in stark contrast to the rest of the space. Heavy cherry cabinets and black accents swallowed the light, while a bulky island broke up the room in all the wrong ways. Too many walkways, not enough function. From day one, they knew this layout had to change.
