Breathe Design Studio

I am more than happy with the results of my Photo Studio after working with Breathe! Christine was a go getter and was so helpful when it came to the design process. She figured out the exact style I was going for and knocked it out of the park! Highly recommend.

Christine and her team were a dream to work with! She is so friendly, honest, and helpful. Her taste is impeccable and yet she’s able to work with any budget! I highly recommend Breathe Design for your next project.

Christine and Ava at Breathe Design Studio were a pleasure to work with and we were very happy with their recommendations and ideas. We had a difficult design project that required a lot of different rooms and some odd spaces that demanded outside-the-box thinking and a lot of patience as we tried to convey what we were going for without having the vocabulary or the specific ideas to adequately describe it. Christine brought a lot of beautiful and clever ideas to the table to give life to our project and pull it all together. Her suggestions for tile, paint colors, plumbing fixtures and room design were different and cool and the kinds of things we would have never thought of on our own, which is exactly what we wanted when we hired a designer. She was very good about explaining to us why certain things would look good or would not look good and helped us come to the right decisions by offering compelling options but not overwhelming us with alternatives. She was also very flexible and worked with us on budgeting and project scope. Finally, she provided drawings and lists or materials, paint colors, tiles and fixtures for each room so that we were able to provide our builder a blueprint for each area to help him understand those aspects of the project. Christine and Ava were also continually available to answer questions after they had completed their designs, which was a tremendous help as construction evolved and selections became incompatible or unavailable. Christine and Ava were also pleasure to interact with. They were not just smart and efficient but friendly and fun.

Christine and Ava were amazing to work with. We were first-time home owners looking to put our stamp on our new house, but we really had no idea what aesthetic we liked or how much it would cost. Christine and Ava helped us through each step of the process and the outcome is amazing. We did both the design and project management stages with Breathe and were very happy that we did both. Everyday we come home appreciating the work and assistance from Christine and Ava. From the overall aesthetic to the small details, Christine and Ava did a tremendous job. We were not the easiest clients and had a unique layout in our living area, but Christine and Ava created a space that fits us and that we love.

Christine has impeccable taste and an incredible eye for design — she helped breathe new life into our space. Our home was feeling stale and stuck in a limbo between different motifs. Christine helped reach our goals of making our modern home feel warm and inviting with some impactful and easy-to-execute ideas. I always thought working with a designer meant breaking the bank on new furnishings but she taught me how to use what o have and create a beautiful space through arrangement, editing, and telling stories with art and decor. I’m so lucky to have worked with her and now I love my home!

I hired Christine to help make furniture and lighting selections, and also to transform the bright open master bedroom into something dark, moody, and cozy. She did an excellent job.

Christine did a phenomenal job helping me furnish and decorate my condo within a fairly tight budget. She spent time with me getting to know my taste and absolutely nailed the final product. There are so many cookie-cutter designers out there who have a single style that they apply to all clients, and Christine is not one of them. The work she did for me was inventive and edgy and she presented me with ideas and items that I would have never purchased on my own, but somehow they fit so perfectly with the space. Other than her knack for interior design and creative talent, she was very well organized and professional. She was responsive via email and over the phone and used a single platform for sharing ideas and for the final deliverable. I've since recommended her to several people, and would absolutely work with her again on future projects. Thanks so much, Christine!

A few years ago, my husband and I downsized into new construction with the belief that when we moved into it we would make it our own. And in a way it was, but it was still a little bit generic. About a year ago we started working with Christine at Breathe Design, and through three small projects (selecting a rug, design and build of bookshelves, and lighting updates) she has already done more to make this “our” home than I had imagined possible. I was initially skeptical about working with Christine because I’ve seen her work in her own home (check out the Spring 2017 Austin Home magazine) and it’s gorgeous but more monochromatic than my taste. But she helped us to balance my love of color with thoughtful and original design to showcase our beloved collections without overpowering the smaller space. For each project she has developed a range of options that take into account the things we love, the money we can spend, and local and/or ethical sourcing of materials. Christine is a great listener, willing to go back to the drawing board to ensure that we’re happy with a project. But she also brings an intelligent and unique sensibility to the process that breaks through my preconceived notions of what is possible. She has helped to rethink our space to create something new that still feels familiar, comfortable, and beautiful in our own home.

Christine does impeccible design work! Her attention to detail is unmatched and it shows. I can't recommend Christine highly enough. She turns any room she touches into a beautiful, comfortable living space!

Christine and her team provide an excellent experience for clients. Christine's warm and relaxed approach with her clients instantly puts them at ease. She delivers great style, within the parameters of the budget, with first-class professionalism. She is also one of the most approachable designers around.

Christine has an amazing eye for design and a sixth sense when it comes to a style that will speak to her client. The first time I met Christine she could tell by my outfit what type of decor would appeal to me. She is a savvy business woman and makes decisions easily and effectively. I don't have a lot of time to spare and she cut to the chase and provided me with options that allowed me to make selections quickly, efficiently, and within my budget. She is solution oriented and sees the bigger picture. I love her and would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone.

We love working with Christine and her team! She knows exactly how she wants her design executed and her clients always love the results! We have helped with cabinetry and drapery to make her custom designs come to life! Highly recommend :)

Deckor had the pleasure of working with Christine on one of her designs when she shared with us an eloquent concept board of a living room and gave us the opportunity to convert it into a CG Render. We work with a lot of designers across the world, but a few display the level of clarity that she posses right from her designs and communication to her beautifully curated website and social media accounts. We highly recommend Christine if you're looking for an informed, creative and passionate interior designer to design that perfect home you always wanted!

We hired Christine to help my family build our dream home. We've loved working with Christine because she has a strong sense of vision while making sure we get exactly what we want. Her team helped us select all the finishes of our new home (cabinetry, countertops, tile, flooring, etc.). She's always responded super quickly and always arrives prepared for meetings. We highly recommend Christine.

Christine and her team were an absolute dream to work with. I had never hired an interior designer in the past and had my reservations early on, but Christine went beyond my expectations. She took the time to really get to know me and my style before making any selections. It was clear that her focus and passion was always to make sure that I was satisfied with the work being done. Whether it was receiving furniture deliveries or literally supervising painters to ensure quality work was done, I knew I could trust Christine to deliver. Christine transformed my new house into a home. I would recommend her and her team to anyone and consider myself lucky to have had the opportunity to work with them all.

Christine was amazing to work with. Not only did she clearly communicate her intent with all parties involved, but she also designed and delivered a beautiful project. I would highly recommend!

We are most fortunate to have found Christine. In addition to her terrific sense of style, Christine was always pleasant and very easy to work with. We started our project from scratch, and Christine provided well-thought-out and honest suggestions in each step of the process. She adeptly integrated our needs into the overall plan and promptly responded to any questions, concerns. Cannot say enough good about her ability and integrity. Thank you Christine!
