I think good hospitality starts with how a space makes you feel. So I design welcoming, memorable spaces with a hospitality mindset — from vacation rentals and hospitality spaces to room transformations in your home.
Whether I'm designing for a guest, a customer, or a homeowner, the goal is the same: create a space people want to be in.
So I start with the experience: How should people feel? What do they need? What will make them stay a little longer? Then I bring it all together through thoughtful layout, color, furniture, lighting, styling, and the details.
The Belief
A property should be designed for the guest, not the owner.
That's where most rentals go sideways. Owners design what they would want — and end up with a space that's beautiful in photos and forgettable in person. Guests don't remember beige. They remember the corner that made them stop and take a picture. The kitchen that made them want to cook. The bed that made them sleep in.
I learned what hospitality actually means growing up at my grandparents' dude ranch. It's not a service layer you add at the end. It's the whole reason guests come back.
How I work
From “should I buy this?” to “how do I get a five-star review?”
01
Honest assessment before you buy or commit.
Not every property is meant to be a short-term rental. I'll walk a property with you, read the bones, and project what it can realistically earn — so you invest in something that can deliver.
02
Color, texture, and personal touches that make a space worth telling friends about.
Spaces designed for the guest first. Built around how people actually use a rental, photographed beautifully, and grounded in construction realities so the design works in the real world.
03
Because beautiful rooms alone don't make a successful rental.
The listing, the welcome, the small details, the way an owner shows up when something goes wrong — it all matters. I help tie the whole thing together so the property doesn't just look good. It performs.
New
Book a consultation instead — virtual or on-site, $200. One room, one problem, one focused session. It's the smallest way to work with me, and the fastest way to get unstuck.
Bigger job? Buy time in a block — 5 hours for $500 or 10 hours for $750.
What clients are saying
“Misty has a unique ability to create spaces that feel both visually memorable and genuinely welcoming for guests. Her design vision completely elevated my property and helped transform it into a space that feels intentional, cohesive, and unlike a typical rental.”
Whether it's a space you already own or one you're thinking about buying, I'd love to hear about it. Tell me what you're working with and what you want to get out of it — and we'll go from there.
