THE MISSION

We design authentic environments for all seasons of life, embracing the beauty of imperfection with luxurious livability and relaxed fluidity. We bring that little lagniappe everywhere we go, saturating each project with the magic of New Orleans in a new light. We blend styles, textures, and cultures to create vibrant, deeply personal sensory displays of character that evoke joy, comfort, pride, and nostalgia.

Nothing is too niche; if it means something to you, it means something to us and we will make it absolutely beautiful.

Hattie Sparks Collins

OWNER, CREATIVE DIRECTOR, DESIGNER

Hattie Sparks Collins is the creative force behind this brand. As a devoted mother and adoring wife with a background in art history, Hattie knows how to keep it real, in style. Hattie has lived in New Orleans for over fifteen years, experiencing the ins and outs of the city’s wonderful culture and expansive history. Hattie wears her heart on her sleeve (alongside a sparkling stack of arm candy, of course) and never turns down a chance to celebrate life. She embraces reality with an open mind and soft heart, infusing every design with passion, understanding, and unconditional love. Hattie’s designs reflect who she is at the core—a graceful hodgepodge of creativity, determination, and artistry.

THE PHILOSOPHY

Every project we have the privilege of touching reflects our high standards, personalized approach, and distinctive New Orleans style of design.

A masterful mix of fun and finery, we celebrate the beauty of personal touches, crafting rooms that reflect the unique character of their inhabitants—where children's toys become decor, pets find cozy nooks, and every corner tells a story. Drawing inspiration from New Orleans’ French, Spanish, African, and Haitian influences and the world beyond, we curate spaces that are as diverse and vibrant as the lives they hold.

THE VALUES

The Beauty of Unbounded Living

We embrace life in all its forms and firmly believe that no room should be off-limits to living. From epic dinner parties that spill into the living room to kid toy explosions and Mardi Gras glitter, we reframe dings and scratches as life’s smile lines and stained cushions as memories that refuse to fade. Every space is carved with character and sweet imperfections, wholeheartedly embracing the beauty of honest interiors.

Spaces that Make Sense

Sensory storytelling is the essence of our process. We welcome the sound of pouring rain, savor the scent of fresh flowers, and live for the taste of a freshly brewed cup of coffee in the morning. We cherish our time nestled in a sunlit nook, reading timeless tales while laughter echoes from the living room. We design living, breathing spaces with soulful energy brought to life by a blend of culture, color, and creativity.

New Orleans in a New Light

Our fresh perspective brings New Orleans' enduring appeal to our clients around the world. Our designs celebrate a harmonious mix of past and present, integrating historical heirlooms alongside modern accents. Emphasizing the ease and comfort of New Orleans homes, we offer a contemporary take on tradition—luxurious without being overly opulent and eclectic without being kitschy.

Relaxed Fluidity

Our designs maintain their beauty while accommodating the natural ebb and flow of life, ensuring stress-free maintenance. Clients feel empowered to make playful changes and adjustments as needed, confident that the essence of the design will always remain intact. There is no need to walk on eggshells or adhere to strict rules to preserve the space’s beauty.

Dreamcatching Design

We cherish meaningful connections in our lives, and so do our clients. By seeking to understand our clients’ dreams, passions, and peculiarities wholly and authentically, we are able to design every space as an extension of its inhabitants. It’s these unique stories that capture the wanderlust spirit we infuse into every space.

Living in Love

Our designs are beautiful displays of true love. We never force anything to fit nor sacrifice joy for the sake of structure. Instead, we romanticize life with memories, meaning, color, and character in every space. Prioritizing authenticity over appearance, our designs reflect the genuine nature of our clients’ lives. Each element is chosen with care, ensuring that the spaces we create are not just visually stunning but deeply personal and filled with love.

"

Hattie was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was able to take my ideas and not only get them done effectively, but overcame any obstacles with grace and humor. We worked on a smaller scale project for my home, but she applied just as much attention to that as if it were a full-scale renovation. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented interior decorator to execute and create a space that feels like home.
