Studio Vous
About Studio Vous
Studio Vous is a DMV based interior design studio offering a full range of residential interior design services. We are known for crafting unique spaces that blend creativity, story telling, and longevity. We believe our homes are an extension of ourselves and should be as layered and vibrant as our lives.
Meet Erin Katz | Principal Designer & Co-Founder
Erin comes from a long line of architects and creatives. She grew up outside of Detroit exploring the neighborhoods of Indian Village and Palmer Woods envisioning the interior details and lives within the stately historic homes.
Fortunately or unfortunately, Erin’s parents wouldn’t pay for art school so instead she found herself in graduate school at the University of Michigan studying to be a therapist! Fast forward ten years and Erin enrolled at the NYSID and NYIAD where she studied before joining Erica Burns Interiors.
After four years of working on large scale, residential projects, Erin left the firm to hang her own shingle with Carrie. Erin brings a unique eye to design, she has a penchant toward “weird good” believing there should be something in every space that makes you wonder. Clients best describe this proclivity as“restrained whimsy.”
Meet Carrie Worn | Principal Designer & Co-Founder
Carrie is a DMV native, returning to Bethesda via Boston during the Pandemic.
Carrie is endlessly drawn to the way a space can shape how we feel. She loves pouring over building plans, tinkering with all the possibilities. She has a love for old homes, vintage and modern furniture alike, and spaces that feel like the people who live in them.
Fun fact: Carrie cut her teeth working on historic homes in New Orleans post Katrina.
With a background in graduate work in architecture and interior architecture from Boston Architectural College and hands-on experience in ground-up builds and historic renovations, she loves helping clients create homes they're proud of.
Whether clients are starting from scratch or breathing new life into a place with history, Carrie loves helping people create homes that tell their story.
How we work
Our projects take time, dedication and a lot of hard work. We work closely with our clients from concept to completion to create a space unique to their needs and personality.
Phase 1 | Good design starts with a dialogue. We take time to clearly define the scope of the project, your style, and your goals. Once we have the project well defined, we move to the conceptual design phase. Here we focus on design direction, mood boards, space planning, and budget.
Phase 2 | This is where the pretty happens and we start to pull together complete schemes, sketches, and floor plans. We focus on the details of renderings, material/furniture selections, and begin planning for any labor or construction required for the project.
Phase 3 | Once details of the design development are 100% finalized, we begin procurement and approval for labor and construction. This phase involves heavy project management and coordination among labor and construction services.
Phase 4 | We love experiencing our client’s excitement when they see everything come together. At the end of our projects, clients are given an end of project manual with all the important information from the project in one place.
The size of the project will dictate the level of project management that is required. Some clients want a full service, soup-to-nuts experience, others want to tap us for our design and selections of a full room but prefer to handle the project management and execution on their own. Still others may want to schedule hourly creative sessions to talk through ideas for entire spaces (we even had a client hire us to walk through potential homes to purchase to discuss possibilities).
