A Collected Home: A Photo Tour with U-Fab Interiors
Some our our favorite projects aren’t defined by a single space or statement piece, but by how deeply the home reflects the people who live there. This client’s beautiful home is one of those spaces.
Custom drapery softens the kitchen, adding warmth and texture while maintaining a clean, functional feel.
Designed over time and with intention, this residence is layered, personal, and effortlessly livable. Every room tells part of a larger story; one shaped by collaboration, thoughtful choices, and a clear understanding of how the homeowners want their home to feel at the end of a long, busy day.
A Collaborative Design Story
Design Consultant Ana Conceicao worked closely with the homeowner to refine existing pieces, introduce new elements, and bring cohesion to the home through custom fabrication and carefully selected fabrics.
“My favorite projects to work on are the ones where my client shines through the final product,” Ana shares. “Where they have actively made decisions with me and collected pieces, and we’ve worked together to create a home that feels like theirs; one that works for their lifestyle and family. A retreat to come home to after a long day, a busy life, and a crazy world.”
Rather than chasing trends, this project focused on balance: old and new, high and low, familiar and fresh. The result is a home that feels collected, not decorated.
Thoughtful Fabrics & Custom Fabrication
Throughout the home, Ana and the homeowner selected a mix of everyday U-Fab fabrics alongside special moments featuring Thibaut and Schumacher textiles. Custom fabrication played a central role in bringing each space together, with tailored details that elevate the look of the home without sacrificing comfort and ease.
Over the years, the relationship between designer and client has allowed the home to evolve naturally. When a piece couldn’t be sourced directly through U-Fab, Ana guided the homeowner toward complementary resources, ensuring that every addition felt intentional and cohesive.

A Home that Grows with its Owners
