10 years? Have we really been in business for TEN whole years??? Wow. We’re going to just take a minute and let that soak in over here. We feel honored and humbled to have been supported by our amazing clients for so long. That you guys continue to trust us with something so big, so personal - your homes. We’d love to take a look back at this journey that has led us to where we are today. Maybe you’ve been with us every step of the way or maybe you’ve just found us. Either way, take a trip down memory lane with us.
Well, it all started with a girl from Little Rock, Arkansas. This one 👆🏻…. Me. I was graduating from the University of Central Arkansas and needed a design internship. I had a sister (Laura) living in Houston and decided to include H-town as an option in my search. I found my internship in Houston doing model home design. After my internship, I joined a high-end residential firm where I worked for two years. After that, I began working with my brother-in-law building custom homes. This is where my design firm began, originally called Maison Market. I continued to office with my brother-in-law for about a year until a gem of a place became available in Old Town Spring in Spring, TX in August of 2011. It was a 2 story white Victorian house built in 1895. I put in a boutique on the first floor and office on the second floor.
The boutique eventually closed, and I zeroed in on my focus as a designer, specializing in new construction selections, turn-key interiors and remodels. As business grew, there was need for my own warehouse and office space. We moved to this great studio in Magnolia, TX.
During this time we decided to rebrand, changing our name from Maison Market to Duckworth Interiors. We unveiled a new name, logo, and website.
We had so much fun in this space, hosting events and pop up markets.
We stayed here for a few years until we decided to make the move to right outside of the Dallas area, Ennis to be exact. We fell in love with this adorable town and we’re so happy that we’re here. We’re now in the heart of downtown in this beautifully restored building.
To date, we’ve worked on hundreds of homes across 10 cities, had our work published numerous times and won a slew of awards for our designs. We’ve done a lot, but in so many ways I feel like we’re just getting started. We’re just beginning to find our stride, and I’m SO excited for what’s to come! Here’s to the next 10 years! Thank you for being a part of it!
