Isabelle Buettner

Project Designer

Born and raised in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Isabelle developed a passion for design at a young age. At the age of seven she was determined to redo her playroom, so she whipped out her pack of Crayola markers and her hot pink pad of legal paper to put her ideas to work. The color palette was chocolate brown and turquoise- inspired after her Jansport polka dot backpack at the time, of course. Fifteen years later she was a graduate of Samford University’s class of 2020 with a degree in interior architecture. Being from a big family has made Isabelle quite the homebody, she is extremely passionate about the home and the importance of surrounding yourself with things you love and find comfort in. She is a huge advocate for “lived in with love” rather than “untouched perfection”. She believes that your home, and the items that fill it, should tell a story through the tiny imperfections that will make their mark over time. To Isabelle, design is so much more than just making a space beautiful, but it is about taking what we have been given and figuring out a way to make it worthy of existence. To create a space where stories deserve to be told. Other than design, Isabelle loves Alabama basketball, Jean-Michel Basquiat and a four-count chicken supreme combo from Bojangles.
