When longtime clients David and Anne relocated to a new home, they came to us ready for a fresh start. With grown children and a new lifestyle, they craved open, airy interiors, seamless flow, and spaces that supported entertaining and everyday ease—without the burden of decision-making.

Having already built trust with A. Houck Designs in their first home, they gave Andrea full creative license to transform their spaces from the ground up. We blended modern silhouettes with elevated finishes, softened clean lines with rich textures, and created a full-home experience that feels as intentional as it is inviting.

Their new home is layered, livable, and deeply personal—proof that great design isn’t just about how a space looks, but how effortlessly it works for your life.

“ We brought Andrea Houck back to help us again with the selections process and the interior design of our forever home. She helped us with new furniture selections while also working into the design plan many of our existing favorite pieces. She assisted us with our home automation decisions and the motorized window treatments. Having worked with Andrea previously made our decision making for this forever home a breeze!

We had worked with Andrea previously on our first home. Andrea Houck provided design services for our living room, family room, entertainment room, and sunroom a home office and a child’s play room.

She was easy and a joy to work with and was very creative while working with in our styles and tastes. She found great contractors to perform the work and supervised their work. Recommend her very highly.”
