All things Interior Design from your not-so-typical design studio. From project insights to field stories, favorite materials to business strategy - we are here to chat, laugh, cry, and inform on our perspective of the world of Interior Design. Above all, #makeitatypical
At A\Typical Design Studio, we love the mix of high and low — the glamorous alongside the practical, the heirloom next to the cool vintage find. In this week’s chat, Lauren surprises Cameo with the topic of splurges: where we think it’s worth spending the money in a design project, and where you can keep it simple.

A\ TYPICAL STUDIO: OUR TAKE ON "LUXURY"
Luxury. It's a word that gets tossed around more than throw pillows on a sofa. For us, it isn't about price tags or velvet ropes - it's about thoughtfulness, detail, and spaces that actually feel good to live in. Everyone has ther own definition of "luxury". For us, it's less about excess and more about intention - materials that will age with grace, layouts that just flow, and details that quietly elevate your everyday life.

Listen to our take, personal preferences, and how we like to use stone :)

A\ TYPICAL STUDIO: MIXING + MATCHING PATTERNS
Let’s set the record straight: mixing patterns isn’t just for the brave—it’s for the intentional. When done right, it’s the secret sauce that makes a room feel layered, lived-in, and full of personality. At A\Typical Design Studio, we like to think of it as visual jazz—rhythmic, unexpected, and very cool.

Interior design is full of buzzwords that sound fancy but often just describe something you’ve already experienced — maybe even lived with.

Just two gals, one design firm, and way too many opinions about vintage furniture. In this reel, we’re chatting about why we love the old stuff—and dropping a few of our favorite local haunts for the good-good. Spoiler: if it’s got weird legs, a wild fabric, or a little bit of a backstory, we probably already tried to shove it in the car.
