At Haute Design, we believe in creating classic timeless spaces that not only enhance ones’ lifestyle and workplace but also increase the value and functionality of the space itself.

Our design philosophy

The best interior design is not just a reflection of the clients taste but a blend of form and function, color and texture that is warm, timeless and utterly original, not a copy of another’s design.

Our team is highly qualified, with vast experience in high end interior design as well as interior architecture, historic preservation and renovation, and both commercial and residential projects.

Why we're different...

"Haute Design, a pioneer in Charleston's thriving design district on upper King for the last 18 years, recently moved to Morrison Drive. Now, in the heart of one of the city's latest restoration ventures, Beverly has transformed her new design studio to reflect the vendors and manufacturers she has developed relationships with, while also creating a space that is inviting and comfortable for both her clients and her staff." 

Our ability to see a space come to life is not limited to the type of building, office, home, or hotel we are working on. We listen to our clients and we strive to enhance their visions for the project and execute with expertise.
