Design Notes from the Studio
After 20 years designing homes across the US, Europe, and Asia, I returned to Colorado to focus exclusively on South Denver neighborhoods. This journal shares what I'm learning as I navigate Centennial kitchens, Littleton historic homes, and the unique challenges of designing close to home.
You'll find project stories, design philosophy, practical advice, and honest reflections on what it takes to create homes that work for real families.
Denver’s Luxury Interior Design Trends for 2025
As a professional interior designer, I always encourage my clients to focus less on trends and more on what they truly love. To paraphrase Gertrude Stein, a trend is a trend is a trend; it’s not a final farewell to beloved styles, but rather a cycle of reinvention. With that in mind, here are the luxury interior design trends I see defining 2025.
Jamie House Design in 2020 (Pre-Pandemic) | Berlin
Jamie House Design’s interior design work is quietly curated. It’s detailed. It’s thoughtful. It’s unpretentious and authentic. Every space and detail is designed for our clients and their lifestyle. Jamie House Design maintains intentional focus on detail and design quality in every space. We lean into the special details that make our designs unique. Our Denver studio curates a high-level mix.
Creating Beautiful, Eco-Friendly Children’s Spaces
In honor of the Global Climate Strike, and in honor of pushing the Interior Design Industry to be more green, I’m highlighting one company who’s furniture is incredibly well designed AND made from recycling discarded plastic children’s toys. BRILLIANT. Historically in the Interior Design industry “Green” meant plain and scratchy and well green colors. I guess the idea was that people who want “Green” products want their products to LOOK “Green”. Which could be the case in some instances but for the most part people want their style and ALSO environmentally friendly. It still has a long way to go.
Mid-Century Modern Kitchen Remodel | Kitchen Design
This mid-century modern home in Littleton boasts a fantastic floor plan, natural flow, and striking architectural details—features that Jamie House Design thoughtfully enhanced. Without moving walls or altering the layout, we focused on maximizing its potential, preserving the original charm while elevating the design. This sprawling, rambling home has a dreamy quality—especially for me, imagining all this space from my little Berlin flat.
High-Low Interior Decoration: Elevating Retail Accessories
As an interior designer, I firmly believe in the power of mixing custom, designer-only furniture with thoughtfully selected retail accessories to create a layered, high-end look. A curated home isn’t about everything being bespoke or everything being from a retail store—it’s about the mix. At Jamie House Design, we source from places like the Denver Design Center for one-of-a-kind, trade-only pieces, but we also incorporate beautifully designed retail finds to balance out a space.

At Jamie House Design, we are excited to introduce a stunning mid-century modern full-home renovation project in Littleton, CO. This home, originally built in 1977, had remained largely untouched—preserving the character and architectural charm that make mid-century homes so special. Our goal? To modernize the space while maintaining its original integrity, creating a stylish, functional home for a client who values full-service interior design and timeless aesthetics.
High-Low Interior Decoration: Pairing Retail with Designer Pieces
As an interior designer, I believe in blending custom, designer-only furniture with thoughtfully selected retail pieces to create a high-end, curated look. A truly sophisticated home isn’t about everything being bespoke or everything being from a retail store—it’s about the mix. At Jamie House Design, we source from places like the Denver Design Center for exclusive, trade-only pieces while incorporating beautifully designed retail finds to balance a space.

Why I'm a residential interior designer: a reintroduction | Jamie House Design
I have always believed that the way we design our homes has a profound impact on how we live. A well-designed space isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about function, comfort, and creating a sanctuary that supports and enhances your lifestyle. That belief is the foundation of Jamie House Design.
With nearly 20 years of experience in high-end residential design, I have worked on projects ranging from small historic remodels to expansive 12,000-square-foot new construction homes. My career has taken me across Houston, Florida, the Cayman Islands, and even China, collaborating with discerning clients to craft deeply personal, beautifully layered interiors. Before launching Jamie House Design, I honed my skills at several luxury interior design firms, developing a signature approach that embraces color, pattern, texture, antiques, and original art in all its forms—from canvas to pottery.

Your home should serve your family beautifully, providing comfort, practicality, and a refined aesthetic that enhances daily life. Let’s debunk some of the most common myths about designing with kids in mind.
