Some homes are designed around a color palette. Jaime Williams designed hers around a point of view.
Inside her Roswell, Georgia, home, vintage finds sit alongside contemporary furniture, and statement artwork shares space with quiet neutrals.
Her 4,000-square-foot house in Roswell, Georgia, didn’t begin with custom millwork or collected antiques. It was a move-in-ready builder-grade home. After a thoughtful renovation and years of intentional sourcing, it reflects a design philosophy shaped by travel, fashion, and an appreciation for interiors that outlast trends.
“I think about a home the way I think about any experience I design,” Williams said. “It should have a point of view—a vibe you can feel the moment you walk in. People don’t just visit here; they have an experience.”
As a user experience director and former creative director, Williams approaches interiors the same way she approaches her work: considering not just how a space looks, but how it feels. That mindset guided the home’s biggest transformations, including a gut renovation of the kitchen and powder room, along with a rebuilt fireplace and custom shelving.
Her home is built with a true eclectic mix of collections. Restoration Hardware, Lulu and Georgia, Arhaus, and Verellen pieces live alongside international flea market finds, Etsy scores, artwork from Tappan Collective and Saatchi Art, and secondhand treasures from FirstDibs and Facebook Marketplace.
Williams’ favorite space is also her most layered. The dining room combines an inky ceiling, graphic wallpaper, a Murano chandelier, a stone table, and sheepskin-draped chairs. Nothing in it matches on paper, she said, but everything belongs.
Her design philosophy is rooted in a willingness to collect slowly, allowing each room to become more compelling over time rather than all at once.
“Home, to me, is a sanctuary,” she said. “It’s the place I retreat to, where I get to be surrounded by beautiful things that soothe me and slow me down. After being out in the world all day, I want to walk through the door and feel my nervous system settle.”
