Your life is the inspiration.
The Key to a Home You Love? It Starts with You! Design isn’t about copying trends or filling a space with pretty things. It’s about connection—between your lifestyle, your values, and the space you call home.
At Home by Hattan, we’ve built our entire process around you—how you live, what matters most, and how you want to feel in your space.
That’s why we emphasize our Collaborative Project Foundation Phase.
1. What Does Collaboration Look Like In Our Design Process?
Think of it as the foundation of everything to come. It’s not about tiles or textiles (yet!). It’s about you.
This is where we uncover the rhythms of your life, so your home reflects them beautifully. Here's what you can expect:
In-Depth Discovery: Project Foundations Phase Through thoughtfully designed questionnaires and guided conversations, we learn the why behind your project—not just the what. Do you need a place to host weekend football games? A prayer room for quiet reflection? A kitchen that can handle snack duty and a dinner party?
The Conceptual Design Phase is where the design truly comes to life and we build on the previous foundation laid.
A Collaborative Visioning Process: Conceptual Design Phase We’ll listen closely, pull out the common threads, and present a design vision rooted in your goals, preferences, and lifestyle. Your design plan will undoubtedly feel like you—only refined, more styled, and as breathtaking as the most beautiful images you’ve ever saved to your Pinterest boards. During the conceptual design phase, we present thoughtfully selected options—tailored to your needs—for your approval, allowing you to see your new space’s vision come to life.
Alignment Before Execution Before we ever begin sourcing or space planning, we ensure we’re aligned on the vision. That means fewer revisions, smoother decisions, and a result that feels personal and right from the start.
2. Common Worry: “Will I Like It?”
We hear this all the time—“What if I don’t like it?” Let us reassure you: This is your home. Not ours. We are here to co-create a space that reflects your life with sophistication, style, and soul.
Our promise? You’ll feel heard. Seen. Understood. Every detail will be rooted in who you are and how you want to live.
3. What Happens When You Trust the Process?
You get to let go.
No more design decision fatigue. No more scrolling for answers. You get the freedom to trust that it’s handled—and that the result will be unmistakably you.
This is the magic of full-service design with a collaborative heart.

4. Because At the End of the Day…
You’re not just hiring a designer. You’re partnering with someone who sees the home as a reflection of your story.
And we can’t wait to help you tell it.
