LUXURY ORGANIZING

A luxury experience working with an expert professional organizer every-single month to get the guidance, direction, accountability, and support you need to maintain an organized home.

 

With overstuffed junk-drawers + closets, you’re driving yourself crazy trying to create a place for everything in your home to live. But, with more + more things making their way into your life it doesn’t take long before you eventually wake up in a home you absolutely love, only to realize that it no longer feels like you’re in control. 

And so...

In your attempt of post-pandemic purging, you move stuff from one surface to another without rhyme or reason + you’re utterly exhausted.

It feels like every time you take one step forward it's followed by three steps backwards… and the worst part, it’s never ending.

Wherever you look, you see piles of stuff. Let’s be real… everyday clutter clearly has the upper hand. 

And nothing’s worse than spending what little free time you have being irritated by the constant chaos of continuous clutter when all you really want is to be able to look around at those that matter most to you + soak up every single moment with them.

 

Which is exactly why we’re here. 
Because your belongings shouldn’t overshadow daily life. What you really want is not only more places to store your stuff, but having less stuff.

Having everything you need and nothing more®.

our desires, our habits, our family’s routines are ever-changing. Quite frankly, the set it + forget it way of thinking should only apply to using your pressure cooker... not to organizing home.

That’s what makes us outrageously different — because at the core our fundamental belief is that the transformational journey of curating home is continuous.

The traditional professional organizer isn't invested in the long game for how your family lives + so while you may be left with a beautifully organized ROYGBIV walk-in pantry when they’re done, it eventually fails. 

And it fails for one very obvious reason, nothing about life is constant. It’s always evolving which means our wants,

 

And this my friend, is what led us to commit our lives to educate others + build an award-winning interior design and home organizing firm unlike any other.

In their words…

 
Transitioning from 2 separate homes to 1 made life messy and unmanageable...and our home reflected that. We had double or triple of things that were randomly placed. It was so overwhelming, it was a huge source of stress and had put a strain on our relationship...

  • The short answer is no, we do not.

    You’re not committing to Elegant Simplicity for 6 or 12 months but rather to yourself. That’s what organizing is, a commitmen to creating a home you love that is setup around your habits + routines. A home with everything you neeed + nothing more.

    And included in that commitment to self is the knowledge, guidance, and accountability of an expert professional organizer.

  • That’s an easy one. Because first + foremost, we care about YOU as a person (then we’ll get to the stuff!) As professional organizers, we combine an interior design background with compassion, humor + honesty. Not to mention:

    BECAUSE you want a home that you can feel proud of –– that hugs your people.

    BECAUSE you’re too close to clearly see how things can be done differently.

    BECAUSE you’re tired of not being able to find what you need when you need it.

    BECAUSE there’s too much stuff + you don’t know where to dig in first.

    But more than anything else BECAUSE an organized home has the ability to impact the way you feel + at Elegant Simplicity we want all of our clients to feel that sense of peace when they walk through their front door.

  • Our favorite question! Although we work efficiently + effectively, the set it + forget it mindset only applies to making a rotisserie chicken. Organizing is a process, not a state achieved in a single day. Instead, think about it as "being” or “staying” organized, not just simply "getting” organized.

    Yes, an organizing system can be set up in a matter of hours. The challenge, however, is to continuously maintain + improve it day by day. Ready for the good news? Once you learn how to create good systems, habits + have the right tools to help you succeed, being organized becomes intuitively, second nature.

  • Friendly. Non-judgemental. Trust + Compassion. Elegant Simplicity is an award-winning interior design + professional organizing firm. By blending education, organization + design, we’ve created a proven methodology that empowers families + teaches them how-to transform home into a place they never want to leave.

    And when it comes to driving results our work speaks for itself. As a business that’s been established solely on a word-of-mouth, referral basis –– we pride ourselves on our ability to develop life-long relationships by earning your trust.

  • Nope! Again, our job is to better understand your everyday routines + how life naturally unfolds, so we can help you clear clutter –– stuff you no longer love, use or need –– allowing you to better appreciate + enjoy living in your space. We help you identify + let go of only the items that are getting in the way of leading a more healthy, productive + rewarding life.
