If a timeless look is what you’re after, Storie Collective—the Georgetown-based studio led by Sara Swabb—might just be a fit. With an approach that balances new and custom pieces with family heirlooms, Storie Collective’s interiors are informed, layered, and personal, with a charming mix of textures and natural materials to boot. Some of their recent projects include a Dutch Colonial in Chevy Chase and a 1936 Colonial Revival in Bethesda. It’s clear to see why those clients went with Swabb: Though her choices respect the integrity of the original home, they’re also fresh and appealing for the way we live now.
