about ME

My name is Amy Schmitt.  I am an Interior Decorator with over thirty years experience designing commercial and residential spaces. While my background experience began in retail merchandising and grew into commercial furniture, fixture, and retail store design, it’s my love of all things home related that has led me to where I am now.

My philosophy

I’m on a mission to help improve the quality of time people spend in their homes, by customizing it to their unique needs/wants.

Living beautifully isn't just about how your home looks; it's about how you 'feel' living in it. While function and beauty need to walk hand in hand, so much of that feeling is determined by how much time we devote to different activities within those walls. I strongly believe we live more with less clutter; and clutter is anything that gets in the way of how you want to live. So declutter your home. Shape an atmosphere that inspires hope and restoration in all areas of your and your family’s personal lives. My goal is to help you create a home that reminds you more of your focus than of your distractions. That starts with space.

Because our homes are where we begin and end our days, most of our routines happen here. Refocusing those routines by manipulating your space can help you feel a difference in the way you approach the rest of your life, too. Home should center you. It’s where your heart and priorities lie. It's time to come back home.

My approach

As a brand, I do not hone in on any one distinct interior design aesthetic. Instead, I take on a different voice for each individual client’s preferences and their home’s bones.

Often times, a home doesn't need a complete remodel, it just needs a fresh set of eyes to see other possibilities for it and the things in it. I specialize in creating plans that start with styling what you already own and then filling in from there. My three step process of edit, style, re-design is ideal for budget savvy homeowners because it provides an affordable option to a full scale remodel, without sacrificing quality. It breaks the decorating into stages that can be done incrementally or all at once. Your timetable. Your budget. Your choice.

My clients book me per hour to come in and help them at whatever stage of decorating they're in. Whether you'd just like to refresh a room and make more space by editing and rearranging (styling) the existing pieces OR you want to start over and need guidance seeing the big picture. I’ll help you define your style, create a master plan, and then prioritizing that into manageable steps that cover all your functional needs and budget.
