Curated Southern Interiors

Designed Around the Way You Live

Hello, I'm Emmy

A Durham-based interior designer with deep North Carolina roots, a love for antiques, and a soft spot for spaces that feel as good as they look. I help busy homeowners create interiors that are beautiful, livable, and unmistakably theirs.

How we work together

01
Full-Service Design

From first sketch to final styling, a turnkey experience for clients who want every detail handled with care.

02
Renovations

Reimagining existing spaces and curating pieces that will be loved for decades, not seasons.

03
Design Consulting

Expert guidance, no strings attached. Book a designer's eye for as long as you need. Whether it's one room, one decision, or one afternoon of pulling it all together.

At Emily Huckabee Designs, we believe a home should do more than impress, it should welcome you in, slow you down, and feel like a long exhale at the end of the day. Every project is built on four things we hold close…

Client Experience • Livability • Trust • Giving Back

What our clients say…

“One of the most difficult moves ever is moving from a lakefront home that you have loved for years into a retirement community. Emmy made my move so easy…she took what I loved and recreated that space in my new villa. It turned out better than I dreamed and made walking in the front door seem as if I were walking right back into my home I left. Emmy has a gift with colors and everything turned out beautifully. Also, she worked with my budget making my decisions easier. Thank you, Emmy.”
