MATERIAL EDIT | 004 — THE BLUE HOUR

A little coastal influence, without being too literal.

Weathered blues, warm walnut, aged brass and creamy stone. A mix of natural textures, subtle imperfections and pieces that feel as though they’ve been collected over time.

I’ve always loved a palette that has a little history to it. Something that feels relaxed and lived-in, but still has a sense of sophistication.

Coastal, with a little old soul.

Give me a stack of paint samples, a good design challenge, a great playlist, and a little creative freedom. I’m a happy gal.

One of the things I’ve always loved about interior design is that no two projects, or clients, are ever quite the same.

From new construction homes and residential renovations to commercial spaces throughout Milwaukee, Lake Country and beyond, every project brings something different to the table.

Different personalities, different challenges, and endless opportunities to get creative.

And yes, I can spend an unreasonable amount of time debating between two shades of the same color.

But that’s part of the fun.

The architecture sets the stage. The furnishings bring it to life.

When I was brought into this project, the home already had plenty of architectural personality. Soaring ceilings, expansive windows and an incredible open floor plan.

My job? Bring it all together.

Through thoughtful furniture planning, lighting selections, artwork and layers of texture, we created distinct spaces that felt connected, comfortable and full of character.

I love mixing materials, playing with scale and introducing pieces that have a little personality of their own. The goal isn’t to make everything match. It’s to make everything work together.

And the best part? This home was furnished for its listing, and the entire furnishings package sold with the property.

A beautiful collaboration from start to finish. Interior Design: Renee Susami | Interior Designer Real Estate: BECKY THOMAS 🏡✨

THE MATERIAL EDIT | 003
Organic Modern | Nature, Refined.

There’s something about the beauty of natural materials that I’m continually drawn to. The imperfections, the textures, the quiet character they bring to a space.

For this edit, it’s all about contrast. Raw wood against polished stone. Sculptural forms, handmade ceramics, and warm, earthy tones balanced with clean architectural lines.

Organic in nature. Modern in composition. Sophisticated without feeling overly refined.

A reminder that sometimes the most interesting palettes aren’t about color at all. They’re about texture, form, and the unexpected beauty of bringing different materials together.

Mondays hit a little differently when this is your office.

Back to work. Emails to answer. A week to plan. And maybe you’re already dreaming up your next vacation while reading those emails. 😉

Because while the inbox may not be relaxing, your surroundings can be.

A space that settles you, inspires you, and makes Monday morning feel just a little bit better.

Your space should relax your soul—even when your calendar doesn’t.
