The Guidance Package
Paris only
Investment: €1,250
A soulful experience to translate your story into a personalized printed guide.
This offering supports you in finding clarity and intention without handing over the creative reins. It’s ideal if you have a creative eye and passion for interiors, but want an expert partner to fine-tune your instincts and shape your vision into something cohesive, grounded, and deeply personal.
Together, we’ll explore what feels like home to you - the colors, textures, and memories that hold meaning - and translate them into a beautiful printed guide created just for you. Your guide becomes a living reference, rooted in your story and sensory world. It gathers your color and material palette, reflections from our session, and intuitive notes for sourcing and styling over time.
Your personalized printed guide is designed to guide you when future decisions arise, empowering you to choose what feels right when you're ready. It’s a visual and textural companion curated to nurture your sense of connection and harmony as your space evolves.
A soulful, in-person experience to translate your story and sensibilities into a tactile guide for your space.
How It Works
Pre-Session Intake Form – You’ll share photos, floor plans or sketches, inspirations, and a few design questions. I review these carefully in advance so our time together begins with focus and depth.
90-Minute In-Person Session (Paris only) – We begin with a tactile sensory exercise designed to help you reconnect with your senses and step away from screens. This grounding moment reveals your authentic color story and visual language, forming the foundation of the interior direction we shape together.
From there, we explore your space - from furniture and layouts to art, antiques, and heritage pieces - translating your instincts into a cohesive, grounded vision.
Personalized Printed Guide – Created and curated just for you, this guide gathers reflections from our session, your color and materials palette, and intuitive notes for sourcing and styling over time.
Final In-Person Review – We walk through your guide together, ensuring you leave confident, supported, and empowered to bring your vision to life at your own pace.

What Clients Are Saying
“After moving into a new apartment, Shana thoughtfully helped us turn loose ideas and inspiration into a clear, tangible vision. Though the space had its constraints, her expert eye completely transformed how we arranged and lived in it. Beyond guiding the overall design, Shana’s intuitive approach gave me a new sense of confidence in my taste and style, weaving in my personal story, objects, and preferences.
We walked away not only with a beautiful new layout but also with practical details like exact measurements for rugs, coffee tables, and curtains, which I’d always felt lost about. She’s completely taken any guesswork and confusion out of furnishing and decorating our home, compiling everything into an invaluable printed resource we can reference for every decision. Her approach felt so aligned, personalized, and flexible, meeting us and our space exactly where we were. I can’t wait to fully bring the vision she helped us create to life!”
Maddy Odom, Paris, France
Maddy is an entrepreneur and multi-passionate creative navigating life and home across cultures. Originally from Texas, she lives in Paris with her French husband and their two young children.
I work with you, combining practical guidance and your intuition to create spaces that feel like you, honor your heritage, nurture the emotional life of your spaces, and foster a renewed sense of belonging.
An Intuitive Approach
My approach is shaped by a Master’s in Interior Decoration and Decorative Arts from L’Institut Supérieur des Arts Appliqués (LISAA) in Paris, a program taught entirely in French and rooted in French design traditions.
This experience refined my understanding of spatial storytelling, materials, and the emotional language of interiors, shaping a practice that is both intuitive and culturally sensitive.
It also connects you to a wider world of design, giving you direct access to French stores, artisans, ateliers, and resources that might otherwise feel out of reach.
My process is intuitive-led and thoughtful, balancing practical design insight with sensory awareness and personal story.
