In Seattle’s ever-evolving luxury real estate market, first impressions are everything—and no one understands that better than Decorus Home Staging. Known for design-forward staging that blends elegance, emotion, and artistry, Decorus has become a trusted partner to top-tier builders, agents, and homeowners alike. Now under the leadership of owner Danyelle Nys, the brand is building on its established reputation with a fresh vision that’s both strategic and soulful.
“We’re focused on strengthening the mutual brand reputation between Decorus and our builder and agent partners,” says Danyelle. “In today’s competitive market, listings need to stand out—not blend in—and we bring that edge through curated, design-forward staging that creates emotional impact and buyer desire.”
This elevated approach has become a signature of the brand. “While we can’t control the market, we can control how a buyer feels the moment they step inside,” she adds. “From traditional to modern, we tailor each project to reflect a lifestyle buyers aspire to—and attract the right ones. It’s not about filling a home with furniture—it’s about creating a vision that sells. At Decorus, luxury isn’t found—it’s created.”
A recent staging project with MN Custom Homes exemplifies this philosophy. Set within a meticulously built new construction, the Decorus team brought the home to life through intentional layers, serene palettes, and thoughtfully placed custom art. “We approached the home with a high level of design consciousness—carefully color-matching marbles, tones, and materials to ensure that nothing felt out of place or over-styled,” says Danyelle. “From the custom art in the dining to the serene palette in the primary suite, every decision was intentional.”
Indeed, one of the most defining elements of the Decorus brand is its exclusive in-house art program. What began as a practical solution to sourcing challenges has evolved into a cornerstone of the company’s luxury service. “Our in-house art offering was born from a desire to elevate the design experience and maintain full creative control over the final aesthetic,” says Danyelle. “So we created a solution: custom, made-to-order art that is conceptualized, stretched and framed entirely by our team.”
But beyond aesthetics, the program is rooted in purpose. “Every piece we use is licensed directly from the artist—we purchase the rights to print, ensuring they receive royalties and recognition for their work,” she explains. “These are meaningful, intentional works created by talented individuals—many from our local creative communities.” The result? Artwork that doesn’t just fill a wall—it tells a story, grounding the space in emotion, character, and connection.
This commitment to intention extends throughout the design process. From initial walkthroughs to final installations, Decorus is deeply collaborative, especially with luxury builders like MN Custom Homes. “Whether we’re working with the homeowner, interior designer, builder, or realtor, our team takes time to connect directly—ensuring their vision is understood, respected, and elevated through the Decorus lens,” says Danyelle.
A standout element of their luxury-tier service is the creation of bespoke mood boards—comprehensive visual guides that preview the aesthetic direction, art selections, and styling tone prior to staging. “Unlike most staging companies, our luxury service includes a curated presentation,” says Danyelle. “It gives our clients a visual preview… allowing them to feel involved and aligned every step of the way.”
For those who might not fully understand the value of luxury staging, Danyelle offers a compelling perspective: “In the luxury market, where every detail matters, it’s not just about making a home look beautiful… What we create is something far more powerful: a feeling. It’s that quiet, unspoken moment when a buyer walks into one of our luxury-staged homes and instinctively feels, ‘This is it.’”
