Digging in deep, problem solving, looking for the good bones to keep... and then creating a functional updated amazing space gives me great pleasure. The generous use of nature, texture, and pops of color and lighting inspire me from beginning to end. I love cherry picking the old and antiquated to blend with new and trend setting pieces to organically combine and reflect a space that feels like it was always there. On top of being an Architectural and Interior designer for over 20 years, I am a furnishings retailer and just opening my 9th store, this one in Austin, Texas. Because it is AUSTIN and we love being on the forefront of everything good… I am creating a new introduction to the world of retail home furnishings. We are offering a full bar specializing in craft cocktail, specialty wines and unique whiskeys. The theme is boujee old school black and white fun. ### Services Provided - Interior Design - Kitchen Design - Bathroom Design - Living Room Design - Bedroom Design - Color Consulting - Space Planning - Furniture Selection - Kids Bedroom Design - Dining Room Design - Custom Cabinets - Lighting Design - Custom Kitchen Cabinets - Home Office Design & Construction - Custom Built-ins - Floor Plans - Playroom Design - Custom Bathroom Vanities - Custom Furniture - Laundry Room Design - Nursery Design - Custom Blinds & Shades - House Plans - Closet Design - Universal Design - 3D Rendering - Basement Design - Custom Walk-in Closets - Sunroom Design & Construction - Custom Rugs - Custom Fireplace Mantels - Home Theater Design - Sustainable Design - Wine Cellar Design - Custom Shelving - Custom Pantries - Home Staging - Downsizing - Drafting - Holiday Decorating - Energy-Efficient Homes - Decluttering - Historic Building Conservation - Feng Shui Design - Kitchen Remodeling - Exterior Design - Full Home Design ### Areas Served - Austin - San Marcos - Pflugerville - Leander - Kyle - Buda - Manor - Hornsby Bend - Bee Cave - Dripping Springs - Shady Hollow - Lost Creek - West Lake Hills - Barton Creek - Hudson Bend - Wimberley - Onion Creek - Manchaca - Rollingwood - Volente - Sunset Valley - San Leanna - Hays - Driftwood - Del Valle - Mc Neil ### Typical Job Cost $30,000 - 1 million Our pricing is completely customized to each individual job. ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Julie Smith Design and Retail | | Address | 115 Sandra Muraida Way, \#620, Austin, Texas 78703, United States | | Website | http://www.julesdesignbar.com | | License Number | 832233067 | | Followers on Houzz | 26 | **Social profiles:** - Facebook — www.facebook.com/JulieSmithDesignAndRetail - Blog — https://www.instagram.com/juliesmithdesignandretail/ ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Julie Smith Design and Retail](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/julie-smith-design-and-retail-pfvwus-pf~1226031343) - **Website:** http://www.julesdesignbar.com ## Credentials - **Best of Houzz:** 1 award (2017), for Service. ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 3 reviews** ### All 3 reviews **★★★★★ — Liza Brown, March 2017** > 6 months ago, Julie and Brittany revealed the hidden beauty of Augusta Meadows Apartments in Tomball, Texas. Their genius design transcends vocabulary and words cannot fully express the feeling they've captured and communicated in their art. In all this time, we have NEVER heard a negative or even moderate comment about their work. In fact, most return visitors comment with newfound admiration saying, "it always looks better and better," having discovered a different detail Julie and Brit managed to perfect. Julie Smith Designs and Retail is exceptional and made possible by Julie and Brittany. We cannot thank you enough for your vision and heart. From our residents, to our guests, and especially from the Augusta Meadows Team, thank you for sharing your gifts with us! **Comment from Julie Smith Design and Retail:** > Thanks so much for the AWESOME review Liza! You guys were fabulous to work with! It was such a fun project! Glad you are enjoying all your new beautiful pieces and amenities! We appreciate YOUR TEAM! Cheers! **★★★★★ — tsny518, Dec. 2016** > My husband and I always thought we had an eye for decorating our home and were happy (enough) with how it looked. Then we met Britt. She came into our home and looked over what we had- rearranged things in a way we had never thought of and made such a difference! We were so impressed with her ability to come in- look things over - use our current decor and make such a drastic- positive change! She then made a handful of recommendation for furniture, lighting and window treatments and when those arrived we really saw the house come to life. It was so exciting to see a space we already liked become a space we LOVE! Aside from her being a lovely person all together- her ability to change a space you like into a space you never want to leave is amazing! **★★★★★ — brucewhitis, Sept. 2016** > Julie and Brittney are knowledgeable, timely, talented good people who are great to work with. You will not be disappointed. ## Selected projects - [Citation North](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/citation-north-pj-vj~2128544) - Location: Houston, TX - Photos: 9 - Description: Renovation of common areas.
