Well designed homes and interiors are found throughout Houston, from fully-restored historic buildings to midcentury gems, traditional homes to sleek modern structures.

Previously very traditional, Stewart convinced white to remove walls, gut her kitchen and bathrooms and gain a new, contemporary look. The project won Stewart a Best of Show award from ASID's Gulf Coast chapter.
