DESIGN SERVICES

  • I work with small business owners who know their space should feel like an extension of their brand — not just a place to do business.

    What I offer:

    • Brand identity assessment — how well your current space or materials reflect your brand.

    • Full-service design, from concept through installation

    • Space planning and layout that supports how your business actually runs day to day

    • Sourcing and procurement of furnishings, fixtures, and materials

    • Project coordination with contractors, vendors, and trades through completion

    Best fit for: boutiques, wellness centers, restaurants, and other small businesses ready to invest in a space that matches the quality of what they offer.

  • I work with homeowners who are ready to live in a space that works with them and for them. I begin with understanding what your daily life actually looks like, so every design decision is tailored specifically to you. I take the time to understand how you move through your space, what a morning there feels like, and what would make it feel unmistakably yours.

    What I offer:

    • Full-service design, from concept through installation

    • Space planning tailored to how your household actually functions

    • Sourcing and procurement of furnishings, fixtures, and materials

    • Project coordination with contractors, vendors, and trades through completion

    Best fit for: homeowners looking for a thoughtful, hands-on design partner — from a single room refresh to a full-home transformation.

  • For the clients with a smaller project who is looking for designer guidance. Virtual design is a remote, budget-friendly way to work with me from anywhere: I'll bring the same globally-inspired eye to your space through a curated design plan you can execute at your own pace.

    What I offer:

    • A custom design concept and mood board for your space

    • A detailed floor plan and layout

    • A shopping list with sourced furnishings, finishes, and materials at your price point

    • Room-by-room implementation guide

    Best fit for: clients who want expert design direction without full-service pricing, are comfortable handling their own ordering and installation, or live outside the Bakersfield area.

    Pricing starting at $750

  • Event design is where it all began for me — under the name Emerald & May, I built a business that drew clients from across the country, from intimate gatherings to full-scale weddings. That chapter is still very much part of who I am, and I continue to offer event design today alongside Harding Avenue.

    Whether it's a brand launch or a private celebration, I design events the way I design homes and businesses: by understanding who the space is for, what the day should feel like, and making sure every detail — down to the last one — actually comes together.

    What I offer:

    • Full event design concept, from mood boards to layout

    • Vendor sourcing and coordination (florals, rentals, lighting, and more)

    • Day-of styling and setup oversight

    Best fit for: businesses hosting a launch, pop-up, or brand activation, and individuals planning a milestone celebration who want a designed, cohesive experience from start to finish.
