Meet the Designer

Hi, I'm Crystal.

I'm the designer and founder behind Martinez Interior Design Studio, a Houston-based interior design studio focused on creating spaces that feel personal, intentional, and uniquely yours.

My passion for interiors began at a young age, growing up around family members who worked in construction. Being exposed to the process of building and creating spaces sparked my curiosity about what happens beyond the walls—how a space can influence the way we live, connect, feel, and experience our everyday lives.

My approach to design is inspired by my curiosity about different cultures, human behavior, communication, and psychology. I believe that great design is not simply about creating a beautiful room, but about understanding the people who live in it and designing a space that supports their lifestyle, reflects their story, and feels like home.

Through thoughtful space planning, creativity, and intentional selections, I strive to create interiors that balance functionality with character. My goal is to bring each client's vision to life while creating spaces that feel timeless, welcoming, and authentically their own.

Our Design Philosophy

Every space should tell a story.

At Martinez Interior Design Studio, we believe every space should tell a story and reflect the people who call it home. Our approach combines functionality, intentionality, and creativity to create spaces that are both beautiful and meaningful.

We embrace timeless design with a contemporary eclectic perspective, thoughtfully layering textures, colors, materials, and personal details to create interiors curated for you!

What We Do

A studio built for the whole project.

01

Full-Service Interior Design

End-to-end design for new builds and whole-home renovations — space planning, finishes, custom millwork, furnishings, and installation.

02

3D Visualization & Renderings

Photoreal renderings that let you walk through every material and sightline before a single decision is committed.

03

Furnishing & Styling

Curated sourcing of furniture, textiles, lighting, and art — procured, received, and styled down to the final object.

04

Design Consultation

Focused guidance for a single room or a specific challenge, for clients who want direction without a full engagement.

Selected Works

Behind the Design

Every rendering is backed by full construction documentation — dimensioned elevations, cabinetry schedules, and appliance placements your builder can work straight from.
