Austin Design Studio
“Our mission is to design interiors that tell stories of comfort and belonging. We believe that every detail should function well, even if that function is to bring joy.”
Breathe Design Studio, founded in 2017, is an award-winning full-service residential and boutique commercial design firm headquartered in Austin, Texas, specializing in luxury residential interiors throughout Texas and California.
Our interiors tell stories of comfort and belonging. We believe that every detail should function well, even if that function is to bring joy.
As designers our most important focus is your well-being. Our design aesthetic is rooted in warm modernism and draws from the Danish approach of creating clean, calm and cozy spaces.
Underneath all of this is our attraction to simplicity. Every design project is driven by the enduring values of empathy, collaboration, and trust. Our mission is to design thoughtful spaces that elevate your everyday.
