Inviting spaces to gather with family, relax, and call home

I think of every room as a composition…

Like a perfect painting, gentle symphony, or cozy novel, it takes just the right pieces coming together to create a balanced, beautiful, and serene work of art. When the elements seamlessly play off one another, the result is a home infused with comfort, beauty, and life!

As your dedicated Southlake Interior Designer, I transform everyday spaces into stunning creations. I turn homes into harmonies and bring together just the thing your spaces need to be the very best expression of you!

My Designer Friend

Ever wish you could have an interior designer as a BFF? Now you can! I lend you my time, eye, with my expert guidance as your Designer Friend!
"We were looking to update the decor in our home of 17 years, but still use some of our existing pieces. We didn't know exactly how to go about doing this without it looking like a mishmash mess! Ann expertly helped us freshen the look of our home while still incorporating the pieces we wanted to keep. She help to push me a little out of my comfort zone (without being pushy), while reassuring me it would all look great in the end, which it does. Ann is very friendly and easy to talk to. She was respectful of my tastes as well as my time. I like that she offers different levels of service so that you can tailor to your budget and needs. I would definitely use Ann again for future projects."
Lori
"Let me just say that Ann is in the right business! Her amazing eye for color, scale, detail, you name it, is spot on. Needless to say, I would never have had ended up with such a beautiful kitchen and family room without her help - not just benefiting from her talent in always knowing what looks right (she does!), but also her amazing service that she provides her clients. She is also always fun to be around, very capable of creating options for different budgets, kept me on track time-wise throughout the project, and got me through the stressful times that are bound to occur through any big renovation. Thank you, Ann, you are truly Just the Thing we needed for our project!"
Tonya
"Ann is a fantastic designer and knows how to get things done quickly with great quality, and with your budget in mind. She is wonderful to work with and really listens to your ideas and likes. I call her "guru" because she helped me pick paint, buy furniture and textiles for a home I had only been in for an hour and the only thing we had were measurements and photos of the house which was across the country. She is a joy to work with and I highly recommend her for any help you might need in your home with decor, textiles, color choices, furniture, updates or remodel ideas. She is a woman of integrity and I could not be happier with the outcome of my home!"
Carey
"Ann couldn't have been easier to work with. Her taste is impeccable and she transformed my house into a home. I'd recommend her to all friends!"
Steve
"Ann is a great resource in home interior design! We used Ann's services for a renovation project of a 37 year old house that had not been updated in over 20 years. We could not be more pleased with her work. Her eye for color, texture, style and detail are amazing. She listened well and was sensitive to our budget and as a result her recommendations were well thought out and spot on. Ann brought great value. We recommend her without hesitation and would use her again."
Barbara
"Ann has helped us very successfully with two big projects first she guided us in getting our “too big for just two“ house ready for a quick and easy sale with her input we were able to optimize colors and floorplans to make our house look it’s very best to potential buyers secondly she has been such an asset in helping us to turn our new house into a home we have fallen in love with it’s beautiful and comfortable as well as reflects our families taste and style we couldn’t be happier with her professionalism and responsiveness. We highly recommend her."

Hi there!
I'm Ann Bridgman

your trusted Southlake Interior Designer

A resident of Southlake, I live where you live and am proud to say I know this area inside and out. Constantly inspired by our local region, I’m down-to-earth, fun-loving, hardworking, and if I had to guess… probably a whole lot like you!

You deserve a beautiful home that’s rich with nuance and meaning, and alluring without being pretentious. You crave a place you can admire in awe as you put your feet up and relax.

As a professional interior designer, I have the expertise and creative eye for knowing just the thing to bring your vision to life calmly and confidently.

Everyday, I get to bring more joy and beauty into the world through modern, transitional interior design. My speciality is transforming everyday spaces into works of art as I cohesively weave together classic neutrals, soft, organic simplicity, splashes of color, and personality. Your personality, of course!

I’ve been renovating, redecorating, and designing for nearly 25 years. Even after designing thousands of homes, I’m always learning and creating something entirely unique for YOU! Which is one of the many things I love most about being an interior designer in the Southlake area: No two projects are ever the same because no one else has the same home, personality, lifestyle, and tastes that you do! I design a home that’s the very best expression of you.

Ready to infuse your home with timeless interior design and heart?
