The Little Things is a full-service interior design studio specializing in creating beautiful spaces for families.

We’re dreamers and doers. With a blend of creativity and precision, we transform ordinary rooms into extraordinary ones. Every detail, big or small, is carefully considered to create a space that’s as meaningful as it is functional—and most importantly, grows with your family. From the perfect paint color and custom-made lighting to family heirlooms and locally sourced art, we meticulously curate every element to reflect your style and vision.

As your trusted design partner, we guide you through every step of the creative journey, from the initial concept to the final installation, ensuring a seamless process that allows you to enjoy the experience as much as the dreamy result. With each project, our goal is to help unlock the full potential of your room, with a living space that is both comfortable and inviting.

Meet Alex

The Little Things was born from a very personal place. As a mother of two, I became passionate about creating environments that nurture imagination and joy—spaces where children feel inspired and families feel at home. What began with nurseries and playrooms quickly grew as families asked me to bring that same thoughtful approach to the rest of their homes.

I believe true family design is both beautiful and practical—where storage is considered with the same care as fabrics, and flow matters as much as finishes. Families don’t live in one room; they live in every corner of their homes. Designing with that in mind has become our studio’s mission.

Shaped by a family legacy of architects and textile designers, and grounded in a background in the tech world, I bring both creativity and precision to every project. Today, with the support of a dedicated team, The Little Things creates homes that are timeless, personal, and built to evolve with each new chapter of family life.

“I treat my home as a sanctuary and understand the importance of being in a space that is both beautiful and thoughtfully considered.”
