Sydney Holliday

founder & principal designer

Born and raised in Spokane, Sydney Holliday is the trusted expert in designing, building, and renovating lakeside homes. Her distinctive hallmark? Creating spaces that serve as a hub for family living, featuring soothing color palettes, materials found in nature, and a blend of rustic Pacific Northwest charm with sophisticated California Modern finishes.

Driven by the desire to provide her clients with solace and family connection, Sydney’s spaces have been described as experiential and akin to a year-round vacation. 

With a background designing luxury vacation homes in Southern California, Sydney brings a refreshing and contemporary design aesthetic to the local area. She believes in the importance of high-quality craftsmanship that supersedes trends, for truly custom homes that feel personality-driven and never cookie-cutter. 

You can find Sydney spending her weekends boating and paddle boarding on Lake Coeur d’Alene, playing volleyball and pickleball, enjoying a nice crisp glass of chardonnay, and hosting friends & family. 

"Sydney embodies what is new and next in the world of luxury design."

Ellie’s passion for interior design was sparked by growing up alongside her mother in the real estate industry, where she developed an eye for the details that truly make a house feel like home. With a knack for client communication, organization, efficiency, and attention to detail, Ellie provides support and coordination to the design process, helping to ensure that each project runs smoothly behind the scenes so we can provide the best possible experience for our clients.

In her free time, you can find Ellie exploring Spokane’s local businesses, enjoying the city’s food scene, and volunteering with her ministry, always with a coffee in hand.

We cannot thank you enough; this transformation for owners that are across the country can’t be spoken about more highly. This service is invaluable. The kitchen is truly transformed! The new island is a showstopper and the natural stone you picked is SO much nicer than engineered materials. It really grounds the whole room as a natural place. Your palette runs throughout the home with the gorgeous floors. The bedrooms are chic, peaceful and functional. The bathroom remodels are off the charts. The living room/dining area is gorgeous and comfortable. Now our vacation home is something that we can look forward to year after year.
