“I really believe that when you’re in your home, it should feel like you’re on a vacation,” says Carla Toutz, interior designer and founder of CT Home. Carla first discovered her love of interior design when she was eight years old, and her mom would constantly find her reorganizing the furniture in her bedroom. Carla explains that doing this allowed her to gain a sense of control over her space and to create a more comfortable and calming environment for herself.
To Carla, one of the most common misconceptions about interior design is that it is only accessible to people with a large amount of money to spend. Instead, Carla explains that you can always find ways to create magic in a space, even if it’s on a budget! While Carla certainly admires the luxurious spaces featured in publications like Architectural Digest, her main goal as an interior designer is to find the perfect balance between beauty and livability for her clients. A space should elevate your life, but it should also facilitate your day-to-day needs.
Tune into this week’s episode of Pushing Dirt for a conversation with Carla about creating chemistry in your indoor space. Learn more about Carla’s personal style, how she collaborates with her clients to bring their unique visions to life, and how to create the perfect coffee table moment!
