Thoughts on Preservation + Design

If you follow Hunt & Gather Home on Instagram and Facebook, you may have caught my recent interview on the Preservation Destination podcast.

Ever wondered how I became interested in preservation, about my path to a career in the field, or how I’ve transitioned into owning my own preservation and design firm? I talk about it all here!

I also share my thoughts on bridging the gap between historic preservation and design and my passion for working with homeowners to recognize and reveal the unique character of their historic homes.

Be sure to add the Preservation Destination podcast to your playlist and catch up on past episodes. If you’re interested in historic preservation, the podcast offers a well-rounded and broad-spectrum look into the field. There’s a wealth of information in each episode.

Old House + Love

IMG_5051

Hello friends, I have wonderful news!

If you’ve followed Hunt & Gather Home from the very beginning, you know that this business began as blog, started by two friends that share an eye for design, a love for old houses, and a fondness for the written word.

Some seasons of life have allowed me and Brandie to post more often than others. We’ve celebrated joys and shared struggles through the lens of our homes. Within the wood-frame walls of our houses we find comfort, strength, peace, and inspiration, and we’ve enjoyed sharing that with all of you.

And now, we look forward to sharing another of life’s most joyous occasions:  Brandie’s upcoming marriage in New Orleans!

She will be back on the blog soon (and perhaps even weekly!) to share design details about her big day, but I’m so honored to announce that Hunt & Gather Home will have a hand in bringing these details to life at the lovely and historic Columns Hotel on St. Charles Avenue.

From historic preservation to interior design to wedding decor, Hunt & Gather Home will be busy these next few months celebrating the things we love most: historic architecture, good design, and the love of family.
