About the studio
A small team of designers in a converted carriage house on Linden Row, Charleston.
It started with one living room
Clara Whitlock redesigned a friend’s living room in 2011 and never stopped. Fifteen years later, the studio has designed more than 320 rooms across the Southeast.
We are still small by choice. Every client works with one designer from the first call to the final cushion.
