Meet Amber
My love for interior design started way back in third grade, when I saw a photo on my teacher’s desk of her kids standing in front of their big two-story brick home — and I was obsessed. From that moment, I was hooked on all things home. I used to beg my parents and grandparents to buy me home decor and interior design books from Barnes & Noble. I’d spend hours flipping through the pages, marking my favorites, and dreaming about the day I’d build my own perfect home.
Fast forward twenty years, and not much has changed — I’m still daydreaming about a large cozy home, every room built to perfection, and timeless and on-trend design details. But instead of keeping all those ideas tucked away in a notebook, I decided to share them with the world… and that’s how Maeve & Modern was born.
These days, you’ll usually find me at home with my dog Piper, a cup of Coke Zero in hand, binging reruns of Gilmore Girls or Bob’s Burgers, and spending hours on Pinterest dreaming of interior design. I’m so glad you’re here — welcome to my little corner of cozy, curated, modern living.
Meet Piper
My tiny coworker and the real boss around here. She’s a spoiled chihuahua with a big attitude and an even bigger nap schedule. Piper supervises from her favorite spot (which is always right next to me), offers side-eye on command, and routinely falls asleep on the job.
Piper looks forward to her monthly BarkBox deliveries, (seriously, she thinks every package is for her), and freshly washed bedding still hot from the dryer. In her free time she loves to go for car rides, pup cups, and playing with one of her gazillion toys.
Piper has great home decor tastes as well. She believes a room isn’t complete without a big soft blanket.
