About the Studio
Design that starts
with how you live.
Refined Nests is an interior design studio built on a simple belief — that a home should feel honestly yours before it ever looks impressive.
We work room by room and house by house across Texas — from a bold living-room conversion in Houston to a full bedroom-and-office reset in Austin. Whatever the scope, the aim is the same: warm, considered spaces designed around real life, not what's trending this season.
Founder & Lead Designer
Lynda
Lynda leads every project hands-on — from the first walkthrough to the final styled shelf. Her work pairs bold, collected pieces with a calm, liveable foundation, giving each room a point of view that still feels like home.
Rooted in how you live
Every project starts with your habits, your light, your mornings — not a mood board. The design follows the life, never the other way around.
Warmth over trend
We reach for materials that age well and palettes that feel calm a decade from now. Considered, not of-the-moment.
The whole transformation
From bare subfloors to the final styled shelf, we see a space all the way through — and document the before so the after lands.
The Process
01
Discovery
We walk the space and talk through how you actually use it.
02
Direction
A palette, a plan, and the pieces that will anchor the room.
03
Sourcing
Furniture, art, and finishes gathered and styled with intent.
04
Reveal
The room, finished — and the before/after that tells the story.
