​​​mStarr was born out of a passion for, and a need to create. At the core of who we are is a belief that curated moments and small details matter. That character and charm are rooted in those small, and often imperfect, details and that they often make the biggest impact. This is a common thread through all of the work we do and the things we create.

Expert Design Consulting

We believe the most beautiful homes are ultimately designed by YOU. We value the importance of an intentional design process, honoring and allowing for the inevitable twists & turns that come with it. We believe in bespoke designs that come together layer by layer.. And we are passionate about empowering others to create the most meaningful, comfortable, character-filled homes…with our guidance.

You: invest in a 20 hour retainer block.

We: typically spend 8-10 hours creating an initial design concept & plan. The remaining hours are used for 1x per month consultations (done virtually or in person), sending recommendations, answering questions, crafting mockups, even coordinating with trades or other design professionals if applicable.

There is flexibility in your investment. The hours are yours to use as you wish and can be spent (for example) space planning, in-person or online shopping, making paint/fabric/wallpaper selections, vetting out carpentry or millwork projects, decor styling, sharing inspiration or simply bouncing ideas off of us!


Additional 20 or 10 hour blocks may be purchased.
