ABOUT US

Sage House Designs is a renowned interior design firm based in the heart of downtown Telluride, Colorado. Established in 2013 by Christy Brown, the firm was born out of Christy’s passion for creating spaces that blend beauty with functionality, while offering a highly personalized, client-focused experience. Known for her timeless sophistication, Christy’s design style is both inviting and elegant, always focused on creating spaces that feel as comfortable as they are stunning.

In 2023, Christy expanded her vision further with the opening of Sage House Collection, a beautifully curated boutique retail shop located in Telluride. The store showcases Christy’s favorite textiles, furniture, lighting, and home décor, allowing the public to explore the refined pieces that inspire her interior design work.

“Sage House was a transformational partner with us as we totally renovated and re-furnished our condominium in Mountain Village. Christy and her team brought an innovative approach to a re-imagined layout and coupled that with a true elegant style for every room in the home. We could not be happier with the outcome as the condominium was transformed into a beautiful home to be enjoyed by our family and friends for years to come. Additionally, we have never worked with a more service-oriented team in Telluride – they are responsive, flexible, and truly delivered for us. It’s rare that you find a team that brings together design, logistics, and customer service in one package, which is why we confidently recommend Christy for any design/build or renovation project in Telluride!”
