South Metro Interior Designer, Tiffany Croswell, Explores the Possibilities Creating Designs that Capture Client Personality

With an emphasis on individuality and exploring unique and custom designs, Tiffany Croswell, owner of DTC Studio Interiors, has been providing services for South Metro clients for over a decade.

In partnership with her husband Derek, the firm provides design as well as construction services.

Tiffany says, “DTC Studio Interiors understands that a well-designed interior is not just about aesthetics; it is about creating a space that elevates your well-being, enhances your daily experiences, and sparks joy in your life.”

She continues, “I really enjoy exploring the possibilities of creating designs that truly reflect the personalities and interests of the homeowners.”

As an example, she mentions a recently completed project in Centennial, Colorado. “For an interior design of a home in Centennial, we created a gallery wall that showcases the homeowner’s beautiful and extensive art collection. As an additional special touch, with the help of the homeowner, we arranged some of the pieces in chronological order by the time of their purchase. This created the opportunity to visually tell the story of the husband and wife’s life together.”

For the project featured here, Tiffany collaborated with the homeowner to develop a design with a Japandi influence. This approach complements the homeowner’s love of nature and allows his existing art and collection of antique vases to be appropriately displayed.

Japandi is a blending of Japanese and Scandinavian design styles. For this particular project, the homeowner’s love of nature and animals worked well with the traditional Japanese design style which emphasizes organic and natural materials, like wood, rattan and stone.

Japanese interiors also often make use of a neutral color palette with an emphasis on darker and earthy tones. Tying that with the Scandinavian approach of emphasizing clean lines and uncluttered spaces has created a space that is open and welcoming and at the same time has a grounded, earthy, natural feel.   

According to the homeowner, “As a designer, she really came in and listened to what I wanted as a client. She pulls what’s important out of you and then does a beautiful job of incorporating that into the design. The rooms exactly fit my personality.”

As a design-build firm, DTC Studio Interiors completed the project on time and within budget.

“They’re a great one-two punch,” says the homeowner.

Tiffany provides design services and Derek is the construction manager.

Tiffany sums up their dedication, “At DTC Design Studios, it’s a labor of love to create vibrant, functional, and inspiring environments that enrich lives. We are dedicated to delivering timeless designs that balance aesthetics, comfort, and functionality and reflect the unique personalities and interests of our clients.”

"Our client-centered approach drives us to exceed expectations and bring dreams to life, one room at a time."
