Studio Plumb is a full-service interior design studio creating one-of-a-kind homes with a refined, rebellious point of view.
Based in Sacramento, we design interiors that balance bold expression with real life. The result is homes that feel layered, personal, and fully lived in.
Every element, from layout to furnishings to the final layer, is thoughtfully considered as part of a cohesive whole.
PORTFOLIO
A Home That Doesn’t Follow the Rules
Our work is defined by fearless color, layered texture, and a mix of vintage and custom pieces. A single element, whether a wall treatment, material, or piece of art, often sets the tone and informs the entire space.
The finished home is both visually striking and deeply functional, designed to support the way you actually live.
Design That Feels Right
Great design should feel intuitive, not complicated. We approach each project with a clear point of view, shaping spaces that feel natural, comfortable, and distinctly yours.
Rooted in Relationship
We manage the design from concept through installation, working closely with contractors, artisans, and trusted partners to bring each project to life.
The process is structured, collaborative, and carefully managed so you don’t have to be.

Sooooo I kind of hate to say it, but styling makes the room.
We spend months, sometimes years, with clients getting the flooring, tile, wall coverings, fixtures, and hundreds of other details just right. By the end of construction, it’s completely understandable to want everyone out of your house and feel ready to be done. But the truth is, it’s probably not going to look done yet.
Even if the furniture is included in the design, a room can still fall flat without window treatments, art, textiles, books, and accessories. Those finishing touches are what bring life into a space. Even if you don’t want a lot of “stuff,” it takes more than most people think to make a room feel layered, lived-in, and fully designed.
We especially love bringing vintage pieces and personal collections into this final layer because they add instant character and soul to brand-new spaces and furniture. Styling is also where you can introduce color and pattern if you’re nervous about committing to it in more permanent ways.
At the same time, we don’t believe every shelf needs to be fully styled on day one. Some people love collecting art over time or bringing home treasures from their travels, and we intentionally leave room for that. Sometimes we’ll source placeholder art so a wall doesn’t sit empty while you search for the perfect piece. The goal is to create a framework that helps you build a home that becomes more personal over time, instead of staring at empty shelves and not knowing where to start.
Our favorite projects, and the ones you see in our portfolio, are the ones that got finished and styled. Yes, sometimes we bring in a few extra pieces for a photoshoot, but ideally we’re leaving you with spaces that reflect who you are and support how you actually want to live.
So if you’re planning a renovation or furnishing project, save a little energy, a little time, and a little budget for the final layer. It makes all the difference.

This recliner might have converted me. We installed a nursery today for the sweetest little girl and there will definitely be some naps taken here. 💕
Same bed styled two ways. I couldn’t decide what I liked better so we shot both. 💁🏽♀️ What’s your pref?
Also a till obsessed with the handwoven fringed coverlet I sourced in Oaxaca a couple years ago but proud of myself for not hoarding it. 😂

It’s probably time for a little re-introduction. 👋🏾
I’m Rebecca, the designer behind Studio Plumb, a Sacramento-based interior design studio creating layered, personality-driven homes for people who want something that actually feels like them.
Before interiors, I spent over two decades in branding. That background shapes everything about how I approach a space. Every home tells a story, and my job is to help figure out what yours should say.
Studio Plumb launched in 2018 out of a love for spaces that feel collected and full of character. We work with clients who have strong opinions and a clear sense of who they are, but want a trusted partner to help bring it all together with intention.
Our people tend to be curious, creative, and a little rebellious about what makes a home welcoming. They’re usually not that interested in designing for resale or following whatever’s trending. They want something expressive and elevated, a space that reflects their values, their history, and how they live. They just want help getting there without the overwhelm.
The work we’re most proud of is bold without being predictable, personal without being precious, and designed to make you feel something every time you walk through the door.
If you’re new here, welcome. And if you’ve been around for a while, thank you! 🤍
This guesthouse bathroom is a lot of things, but no one will accuse her of being boring. 💅🏼
Last week I headed to Charleston for @thedesignfieldretreat and delivered on every level. Time to explore a beautiful historic city, learn from talented designers across the country, and full-on fangirl over the experts I look up to most. Every detail was thought of and well designed and that is not something a designer often experiences outside of our work. As someone who’s always looking to grow and improve my process, having a community of designers to learn from and lean on means everything. First year of this event and they absolutely nailed it. Congrats and thank you @maeproperinteriors and @sundaymorning_interiors!!
Last week I traveled back to the remote coast of Texas for the kind of moment you have to remind yourself is actually happening. The beach house project was chosen by a national magazine for a house tour photoshoot! Being a part of the production was so cool and experiencing it with clients who feel like family made it even more special. These shoots don’t happen often in publishing anymore, and I didn’t take a single second of it for granted. I’ll be able to share more in a few months!! 🤍
