A home,
in the first
person.
Most interior design begins with a style. We begin with you: the way you live, the light you wake up to, your grandmother's chair, and design outward from there.
We begin with you, not a style: the way you live, your light, your grandmother's chair.
A home is not a style. It's a self: how you live, what you keep, who you gather around the table.
Homes that look like their people.
The same room, told differently.
Four ways to work together.
Styled Room
A single day of considered styling: rugs, art, textiles, and the small decor that lifts a room.
Full-Service Design
Concept to install, held by us. Trades, procurement, styling and the reveal.
E-Design Packages
Three tiers, delivered as a digital book. You measure; we plan and specify.
Renovation Management
We hold the drawings, the trades and the calendar so you don't have to.
I design rooms to a sentence, the one that begins I am.
SOU began in Portuguese. Sou is the first person of ser, I am: the verb you use not for what you do, but for who you are. It seemed like the only honest place to start a home.
Every project carries Cacau's eye, from the first walk-through to the last cushion. We work in person across New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania, remotely everywhere else, and for the right short project, we'll happily pack a bag.
