Your home, reimagined as refuge.
Refuge Decor & Designs turns rooms, homes, and event spaces into places that feel unmistakably you — led by designer Tessa, one client and one vision at a time.
Tessa builds spaces that feel like coming home.
Tessa founded Refuge Decor & Designs on a simple idea: a home should tell your story, not a showroom's. Clients come to her for a full room redesign and stay for the way she listens first — pulling together layout, color, and finishes that read as personally theirs, never generic.
Her range runs wide. In the same month, she might restage a home to help it sell, style a wedding reception down to the last centerpiece, or guide a homeowner through a kitchen renovation from mood board to move-in. Clients consistently describe her as warm, responsive, and easy to work with — the kind of designer who makes the process feel personal, not transactional.
“Every space deserves to feel like refuge.”
