A real plan for the room you're stuck on.

A second set of eyes is the highest leverage thing most people can do before they spend money on a room.

What you get

She designs it. Your contractor builds it.

Whether it's one room or a whole floor, you receive a complete design plan: layout, finishes, furniture, and an itemized sourcing list with links. You then bring it to life on your own timeline.

Ideal for renovations, refreshes, and rooms that need a layout solved before anything else gets chosen. You work with your own builder or contractor. Shelby delivers the vision.

Her instinct is to chisel away at a house until the home that was always inside it shows up.

Timeline 3 to 5 weeks From kickoff call to final plan.
Scope 1 to 4 rooms Priced per room, so you can start with one.
Revisions Two rounds Built into every plan, not billed extra.
Format Virtual, or in home In-home visits within Dallas-Fort Worth.
Three ways to work together

Start small, or hand over the whole floor.

01

The Session

One hour, one room, straight answers.

For when you mostly know what you want and need someone to confirm it, break a tie, or tell you the thing you're avoiding. Send photos and questions ahead. Leave with direction and a written recap you can act on that week.

  • 60 minute call
  • Written recap and next steps
  • Paint and finish direction
02

The Room Plan

The full design, delivered as a document.

The real service. Layout worked out first, then finishes, then furniture and sourcing. You get everything a contractor needs to build it and everything you need to buy it, without anyone standing over the job.

  • Kickoff call and measurements review
  • Floor plan, including layout changes
  • Paint, tile, fixtures, lighting, hardware
  • Furniture and styling plan
  • Itemized sourcing list with links
  • Two rounds of revisions

The Walkthrough

In your house, in person.

For homes in Dallas-Fort Worth, and especially for houses about to be gutted. She walks the space, calls out what she'd move, what she'd keep, and where the money is best spent. Followed by a written summary.

  • On-site visit, up to two hours
  • Layout and scope recommendations
  • Written summary afterward
  • Can be credited toward a Room Plan

Rates depend on the number of rooms and how much layout work is involved. Ask below and you will get a real number.

The process

How a Room Plan actually runs.

01

Kickoff

A call to walk the space on video, talk through how you actually live in it, and be honest about budget. You send measurements and photos ahead. This is also where she'll tell you if the room needs less work than you think.

02

Layout first

Before a single finish is chosen, the plan gets solved. Walls, openings, where the light comes from, whether that closet can steal three feet from the hall. Most rooms that feel wrong are a layout problem wearing a decorating problem's clothes.

03

Finishes and furnishing

Paint, tile, stone, hardware, lighting, flooring, window treatments, then the furniture and the small things on top. Presented together so you can see the room, not a list of parts.

04

Two rounds, then it's yours

You react, she adjusts, twice. Then you get the final plan and an itemized sourcing list with links. Take it to your contractor, build it whenever you're ready.

What it looks like

The work is mostly in the small decisions.

Where a piece goes, and how high, is a decision like any other.

Budget is not a filter. It is how she avoids designing something you would never build.
