STUDIO
OUR PURPOSE
At Etch Design Group, design is more than what we do — it’s how we create spaces that change the way people live, work, and connect. We are a full-service residential and commercial interior design firm in Austin, Texas, dedicated to crafting custom environments that are as functional as they are beautiful. Every project begins with collaboration — listening, asking questions, and uncovering the unique story each space should tell.
Our mission is simple: to create interiors that offer a balance of purpose and beauty, leaving a lasting impression on everyone who experiences them.
Design That Inspires Possibility. Spaces That Feel Like You.
ABOUT THE FIRM
With decades of combined experience, Etch Design Group was founded on the belief that extraordinary design begins and ends with people. Gorgeous, functional spaces come naturally to us — but our true focus is understanding our clients and making the design process inspiring, enjoyable, and stress-free. The talent behind every Etch project is the heartbeat of our firm — a team of designers, visionaries, and problem-solvers who bring unmatched expertise, artistry, and care to each client experience.
We believe a well-designed space is an invitation: to gather, to express yourself, to feel completely at home. It’s the reason we show up every day — to create environments that spark joy, offer comfort, and reflect the people or brands they represent.
From new construction and remodels to furnishings, art, and accessories, our team pushes boundaries, embraces creativity, and delivers excellence — always with integrity, connection, and the ultimate goal of creating happier lives through design.
MEET THE TEAM
Etch was founded by Jessica Nelson and Stephanie Lindsey on three guiding principles: people first, joy in the process, and integrity. These values aren’t just words on paper — they guide our conversations, our decisions, and the designs we create.
From day one, Jessica and Stephanie set out to build more than a design firm. They built a team of extraordinary designers, project managers, and creative thinkers who are trained to design in your style, not ours — so the finished space is a true reflection of you.
Our studio blends a wide range of expertise, from space planning and architectural detailing to furnishings, art, and styling. That mix of perspectives fuels fresh ideas and sparks creativity..
Every project is a collaboration — each team member bringing their own slice of genius to create a design journey that’s inspiring, organized, and surprisingly fun. We take the stress off your plate so you can focus on the excitement of watching your vision come to life.
At Etch, we don’t just design beautiful spaces. We create legacies — homes and environments that inspire joy every day.
