ABout
We design that
gather people,
hold memories & welcome real life.
Our story began with a love of hosting: the simple joy of bringing people together and creating environments that feel effortless and alive.
Today, that same spirit guides everything we design.
We believe great design begins with intention. Every space should function beautifully, invite conversation, and reflect the people who live there. Our interiors balance sophistication with ease — refined yet approachable, designed to be lived in and loved.
From intimate homes to open houses, we design for connection. We turn houses into homes and spaces into invitations — to rest, to laugh, and to come together.
Hosten is more than design.
It’s the art of creating
presence
& connection.
