your dream space starts here.

About

Hey, Lellie here! a 20-something year old gal from NJ/NYC with a passion for interior decorating, DIY, architecture, and loves giving lackluster rooms exciting, functional, and aesthetic personality-filled makeovers. Aside from studying architecture, I took a shot at studying environmental design and interned as an experiential designer at a luxury marketing agency in New York City.

But here’s the thing – I wasn’t always confident with my skills. After moving into my new apartment, I was unsure about what my style really is and overwhelmed by the prospect of bringing new life to a new space, especially as a broke college student!

That all changed when I started viewing spaces as a creative playground rather than a daunting finals project that I have to stay up all night for. I remembered how much I enjoyed creating 3D and physical models of buildings and imagining solutions to my designs. Inspired by this and with a newfound creative process in interior decorating (and a lot of inspo from Pinterest boards), I discovered the joy of budget DIY makeovers and adding fun decor to my apartment that speaks to my style. Think sleek Japandi meets just the right amount of eclectic, personality-packed, colorful decor. I just can’t resist the urge to reimagine design solutions to drab and uninspiring spaces I come across, whether that be exterior or interior, and I’m so excited to share with you my fun little projects that I hope will inspire you.

As I continue my journey as an architecture and design student, I’ll be your trusty guide through the world of budget-friendly, beginner-friendly home improvement and design. You’ll find easy-to-follow tutorials, thrifty home decor and furniture store recs, and tons of architecture and interior design inspiration to spark your creativity. From clever small-space solutions to eye-catching design moments, I’ve got you covered.

My goal? To empower you with the confidence and skills to craft a space that feels uniquely yours. It’s time to surround yourself with color, personality, and an environment that caters to you! I can’t wait for you to join this community of creative problem-solvers and see what you come up with. Let’s get to work!
