Keeping up with Abraham Hernandez isn’t easy.
His award-winning design studio specializes in kitchen and bath makeovers in Atlanta. Interiors by Abraham has worked on homes of HGTV stars, CEOs, and small business owners, including legendary Braves coach Bobby Cox and Todd Chrisley from "Chrisley Knows Best." His team’s work is showcased in model and spec homes by top builders like John Weiland and Toll Brothers. It’s all about creating livable spaces for busy entrepreneurs through kitchen and bath makeovers, custom cabinetry, and space planning. We caught up with Abraham to discuss style and inspiration.
Your life and work are so visual and bright. When approaching a new project, where do you find inspiration?
I get most of my inspiration from travel and nature. I love to collaborate with my clients by gathering their input and understanding their desires for what they want their home to look and feel like. I love color pops with a neutral setting. We create and design homes for our clients' busy lifestyles. A home should feel peaceful and safe and we combine beautiful textures and color palettes to suit each homeowner.
With the client and his/her aspirations, of course. But where else do you look for cultural and creative inspiration?
I love to see Nate Burkus, Jeff Lewis, and Bobby Berk designing with lots of cultural attributes for unique spaces for their own clients. Minimalism and modern are my go-to when it comes to design.
As an artist, I’m sure you find inspiration when you travel. Tell us about your most recent trip and what you experienced. I recently visited Florida, with its serene blue water beaches and light-colored sand. The vegetation and exotic plants spark pops of color and provide a beautiful background for all the places we visited. The skies were light blue against the dark blue water and aqua marine green just crashing into the soft sandy beaches with the sun radiating down on everyone creating lots of peace and joy to everyone.
Design is so personal. How do you pull back your personal style and find the right design for a new client?
Again, I make collaboration a priority with my clients creating something NEW and FRESH for their home. Sometimes clients call and say to me they don't know what they want......I listen and look at their personal style. I study their home and ask lots of questions of what new pieces in their home they love to help focus and deliver a design and palette that they never realized they wanted. If you pay attention to your client, they will tell you what they DON'T like or love so that helps tremendously to help create their home of their dreams. I am an ARTIST by trade so I can go over the top with GLAM and LUXURY bringing in bold and eccentric details to their homes. Of course, I have to create their interiors for them within their budgets so sometimes I have to reel myself in to keep the project within their means and timeline. I do love to make our clients happy and giving them something they never imagined within their budget.
Your services include custom cabinetry, cabinet painting, refinishing, and modifications. And also offer electrical, granite, backsplash, hardwood installation, refinishing, and space planning. What are a few new trends you're loving for fall, 2025?
The current trends and biggest winners of this year and years to come is NEUTRAL and ORGANIC. This helps produce designs in minimalism, Scandinavian, and Modern aesthetics. Lots of creams, whites, with wood-tones, and bold colors for focal points give homes the WOW factor. I love mixing metals and wood tones in dark walnut, and natural pine wood accents and maple. Organic is timeless and you can mix boldness with organic backdrops in spaces like kitchens, basements, and living rooms giving you a fresh new vivid feel to your home that you’ll want to share with your loved ones.
