Interior Design

Interior Design that works with your architecture

Brickmoon Design combines residential interior design with architecture under one roof. Principal of Interior Design, Annie Fama leads this integrated approach, which changes everything because every decision impacts the final result. As an interior design firm in Texas, Brickmoon’s architecture + interior design coordination is the firm’s biggest differentiator.

 

How the Design Process Works

Brickmoon Design follows a six-step process built around clarity and client confidence at every stage.

Initial Consultation & Discovery

We listen first. We ask about lifestyle, family dynamics, long-term goals, and what hasn’t worked about every home before this one. We visit the site before drawing a single line — because the land shapes the architecture as much as the client does.

Site Analysis & Feasibility

Every constraint is mapped: utilities, setbacks, flood zones, solar orientation, drainage, and view corridors. Difficult sites are design opportunities. Steep slopes produce better views.

Conceptual Design

Multiple design directions are developed. We build 2D elevations of every wall, selecting every material, fixtures, and furnishing – from lighting and plumbing to appliance, windows, hardware, and décor – so the process is truly turnkey.

Detailed Design

Every material, window, and finish is specified. Kitchen and bathroom layouts are coordinated with plumbing and structural systems from the start. We develop the look and feel of a home from day one, working hand in hand with architecture to ensure floorplans, window placement, room relationship and cased opening all flow seamlessly.

Permitting

Brickmoon helps the client navigate all permit submissions and code reviews. Clients don’t navigate city approval processes alone.

Construction Observation

The team makes regular site visits throughout the build. A final walkthrough confirms every detail matches the approved design.

Custom Interior Design Styles

Brickmoon Design provides complete interior design across every room and project type — from focused single-room projects to comprehensive whole-home redesigns. Every project receives the same level of coordination and design rigor.

Kitchen and Bathroom Design

The rooms that drive the most value and the most complexity. Brickmoon designs kitchens and bathrooms with the home’s structure in mind from the start. Plumbing locations and code requirements inform the design, not the other way around.

Space Planning and Interior Layout

Good layouts make homes feel larger and function better. Brickmoon plans around how clients actually live, not generic floor plan formulas applied without regard for how a specific family uses space.

Material and Finish Selections

Colors, textures, and finishes are the difference between a house and a home. The wrong finish disconnects an entire room.

Custom Furniture Design

Off-the-shelf furniture works for some projects. Custom furniture makes homes extraordinary—designed specifically for the space, the architectural style, and how the client lives in the room.

Lighting Design

Light transforms spaces, moods, and daily function. Brickmoon layers lighting to serve different times of day and different uses within each room. Uniform lighting is a missed opportunity.

Window Treatments and Soft Furnishings

Windows are architecture. Treatments are design. Together they frame how a home reads throughout the day. Brickmoon selects window treatments as part of the overall design strategy, not as a final add-on.

We worked with Brickmoon to design a Texas-modern cabin on our ranch in central Texas. The team handled site planning, architecture, and interior design and was on top of every detail through every phase of the project. They were incredibly communicative with everyone participating and took all the time needed to explain the details to us. After working with the Brickmoon team, not only do I absolutely love the result, but I feel like a better informed homeowner and steward of the house, and I look forward to working with the team again on future projects.

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Brickmoon Design on multiple projects, and every time feels like teaming up with the Charlie’s Angels of architecture — sharp, creative, and always ready to solve a problem with style. Their designs are thoughtful and inspiring, but what really stands out is how well they balance vision with practicality. They’re collaborative, detail-oriented, and always keep the client at the center of the process. When Brickmoon is leading the design, we know we’re building something special.

Residential Arcitect FAQs

What is the difference between interior design and interior decoration?

Interior decorators select colors and furnishings. Interior designers plan spaces, coordinate with structural systems, and solve functional problems alongside the aesthetic ones. Brickmoon’s team operates as designers — understanding how spaces work before making them beautiful. The distinction matters most in new construction and major renovations where structural decisions and interior design decisions are inseparable.

Do clients need interior design services if they are building a new home?

Legally, no. In practice, coordinating interior design with architecture produces measurably better results. Finishes chosen at the end of construction — after structural decisions are locked in — consistently feel disconnected from the architecture. Starting both disciplines together is how the best homes are built, and it’s the standard Brickmoon holds on every new construction project.

How long does the interior design process take?

Single-room projects typically run 4–8 weeks. Whole-home redesigns take 3–6 months. New construction projects coordinated alongside architecture typically require 6–12 months. Timelines depend on project scope, the speed at which selections are confirmed, and how closely interior design is integrated with the architectural schedule.

Can Brickmoon work within a specific architectural style?

Yes. The firm works across modern, contemporary, transitional, farmhouse, coastal, Mediterranean, Hill Country vernacular, and traditional styles throughout Texas. The client’s style preferences and the home’s architectural language guide every interior selection — the design team doesn’t apply a single default aesthetic across projects.

Does Brickmoon source and order all materials and furnishings?

Yes. Brickmoon sources all materials and furnishings, manages vendor relationships, coordinates delivery, and oversees installation. Clients are not responsible for tracking orders, managing logistics, or coordinating between suppliers. The team handles those responsibilities as part of the full-service design engagement.

What if the client is already working with a separate architect?

This is a common scenario. Brickmoon’s interior design team coordinates directly with outside architects — participating in conversations about finishes, kitchen layout, and how interiors integrate with the building design in progress. The team is experienced working within existing project structures without disrupting timelines or relationships already in place.

What happens if a client changes their mind about a selection?

Pivoting is possible when timing allows. Some selections can be changed mid-project; others are locked in by contractor schedules or lead times. Brickmoon is transparent about which decisions are still flexible and which have passed the point of no return, so clients can make informed adjustments before deadlines close.

How does Brickmoon handle color consultation?

Paint and finish selections are evaluated in the actual space at multiple points throughout the day. The team understands how light changes colors across different times and conditions — morning light, afternoon light, and artificial evening light can read a color very differently. Samples are tested and confirmed before any finish is finalized.

Can Brickmoon work with a builder that has already been selected?

Yes. The interior design team integrates into existing project structures and coordinates directly with builders and general contractors throughout design and construction. The firm maintains established relationships with trusted builder partners across Houston, Austin, and the Hill Country, and works effectively within teams it hasn’t assembled itself.

How does Brickmoon approach interior design projects outside of Houston?

Brickmoon maintains a second office in Wimberley and works regularly across the Hill Country, Austin metro, Lake Travis, Lake LBJ, and broader Central Texas. For clients building or renovating lake properties, ranch homes, or Hill Country estates, the team brings the same integrated architecture and interior design approach applied to every Houston project — with direct regional knowledge of the specific site conditions and vernacular styles each market demands.
