The studio

A collected home doesn't
happen all at once.

We believe the most beautiful homes are layered over time.

At Virginia & Co., we work with your existing furniture, heirlooms, artwork, and meaningful pieces, then edit, rearrange, and supplement where needed to create rooms that feel personal, elevated, and complete.

I believe the most beautiful homes aren’t the ones that are perfectly decorated—they’re the ones that are deeply lived in, slowly collected, and filled with stories worth telling.

A note from Chelsey

Virginia was my grandmother's name, and this studio was created with the belief that homes should hold history, memory, and meaning. My work is rooted in honoring what already exists while creating space for what comes next.

About the studio

Homes should tell the story of the people who live in them.

Virginia & Co. was created for homeowners who want their spaces to feel elevated without erasing what makes them personal.

Rather than starting over, we begin with what you already own: the furniture that has followed you from home to home, the artwork you love, the heirlooms you inherited, the objects with meaning, and the pieces that simply need to be seen in a new way.

Our approach is thoughtful, edited, and deeply personal. We rearrange, refine, layer, and source only what is needed so your home feels refreshed, intentional, and beautifully collected over time.

The founder

Meet the Founder

I’ve always believed that the spaces we create should tell the story of the lives we’ve lived.

Chelsey at home in Santa Barbara

For nearly twenty years, I built my career in the apparel industry, leading creative direction, merchandising, product development, and brand strategy for some of fashion’s most recognized brands. Every collection began with a story—thoughtfully balancing color, texture, craftsmanship, and emotion to create something that felt both timeless and personal.

Over time, I realized those same principles extended far beyond fashion.

As life took me from California to Costa Rica and back again, I found myself creating homes that reflected not just where I lived, but how I wanted to live. Along the way, I collected meaningful pieces from my travels, inherited treasured family heirlooms, and discovered that the most beautiful homes aren’t built overnight—they’re thoughtfully layered over time with memories, experiences, and objects that carry meaning.

Those experiences shaped my design philosophy.

I don’t believe every project requires starting from scratch. Some of the most important pieces in a home are the ones you already own—a chair that’s been passed down through generations, artwork collected while traveling, a favorite book, or a table that has hosted years of family dinners. My role is to help clients see those pieces in a new light, thoughtfully reimagining their spaces by blending what they already love with carefully selected additions that bring renewed life, beauty, and function.

Whether we’re refreshing a single room or transforming an entire home, my goal is never to create a space that feels staged or perfectly curated. I want it to feel collected. Warm. Comfortable. Sophisticated without trying too hard. A home that reflects your story, welcomes family and friends, and becomes a place where memories continue to unfold.

There is no greater compliment than hearing a client say, “I love coming home.”

Because that’s what great design should do. It should create a feeling. A sense of comfort, belonging, and joy that welcomes you every time you walk through the door.

Our philosophy

Our Philosophy

  • Keep what has meaning.
  • Edit what no longer serves the space.
  • Rearrange before replacing.
  • Layer old with new.
  • Source intentionally.
  • Create homes that feel personal, not prescribed.
Homes should hold history, memory, and meaning.
