Flourish Interiors is a full service interior design firm, but we also offer home staging for real estate and industry professionals. The Flourish staging program is dedicated to helping our clients’ listings sell faster and for more money, but that’s only a portion of our mission. We are also passionate about creating beauty in these properties, and helping the potential home buyers envision their own lives unfolding in the space at hand. I always say, your home is the backdrop to your memories. So when we stage homes, I am mindful of the idea that we are helping buyers envision the new “backdrop to their future memories”.

Flourish Interiors stages homes throughout the Northwest Indiana and SW Michigan region, including along the shores of Lake Michigan and near the University of Notre Dame. We care a great deal about each client and feel fortunate to stage each property assignment. That said, every once in a while an extra special property comes up and reminds us just how creative and special our work can be. This breathtaking property, nestled along the shores of Lake Michigan in Porter, IN, just pended for close to $3 million and we’re honored to have played a role in its success.

Designed by the acclaimed Florida architect Terry Crago, the home itself is a work of art. Its inspiration comes from an unexpected yet harmonious source: the quartz formations of Arkansas. That organic influence is seen throughout the home, blending natural wonder with architectural innovation, all while showcasing the incredible water views of Lake Michigan.

To complement the home’s striking features, our team staged every space with intention, highlighting the dramatic lake views, enhancing the flow of each room, and ensuring that every detail felt connected, elevated, and inviting.

Whether it’s capturing warmth in a minimal space or layering texture into modern architecture, our goal with staging is always the same: to tell a story that buyers can see themselves living in.

This home did exactly that; boldly, beautifully, and in just four days on the market!

Why Staging a Home Is So Important

First Impressions Are Everything
Buyers form an opinion within seconds. A professionally staged home highlights its best features and creates an emotional connection the moment they walk in.
Helps Buyers Visualize Living There
Empty spaces can feel cold or confusing. Staging creates warmth, function, and flow helping buyers imagine themselves in the home.
Maximizes Space and Light
Strategic furniture placement, neutral color palettes, and thoughtful styling make rooms feel larger, brighter, and more inviting.
Minimizes Flaws, Highlights Strengths
Every home has quirks. Staging can soften awkward layouts or draw the eye toward architectural strengths and beautiful finishes.
Professional Photography Pops
Most buyers begin their search online. Staged homes photograph significantly better, resulting in more clicks, showings, and competitive offers.
Faster Sales, Often for More
Staged homes statistically sell faster and for a higher price. It's not just about aesthetics, it's about results.
