About Us

"As the owner of Brickland Custom Homes, my relationship with Mary Scalli and Houston Staging & Design has been a game changer for our company. We build high end custom homes, and our homeowners make dozens of interior finish choices- visiting various showrooms throughout the city. Several years ago, it became apparent we needed a professional design team to help our homeowners with these sometimes difficult decisions and Houston Staging & Design fits the bill perfectly. The Houston Staging & Design team is professional and caring. They are color experts and work extremely well with our homeowners’ different personalities. The team turns what can be a stressful experience into a fun, stress free one. I can’t say enough good things about Houston Staging and Design and how our relationship has helped Brickland Custom Homes maintain happy, satisfied customers."

"I can’t say enough amazing things about this company! They were exactly what I was looking for and was beginning to think I’d never find. From the first call to the end they were extremely professional and efficient. The entire process was amazing and our house looked like a model when they finished staging."

"In February, my 82-year-old mother-in-law’s home suffered damage, and with her dementia, she couldn’t manage the urgent restoration of antiques, rugs, paintings and furniture—so the massive task fell to me. From coordinating repairs and smart design updates that preserved her home’s character without overspending, to sourcing restoration experts, advising on selections and new kitchen layouts, arranging movers for her temporary independent living, and carefully relocating and staging her heirlooms, Mary’s team at Houston Staging & Design handled every detail with compassion and patience. I couldn’t have made it through the last six months without their full-service support and unwavering trustworthiness."

"I am happy to vouch for the expertise and professionalism you will find with Mary Scalli and her team at Houston Staging & Design. I am the broker/owner of RE/MAX Elite Properties. Many of my clients have utilized the design and staging services of Houston Staging & Design. But on a more personal level, I can tell you that Mary and her team helped me with the design and remodel of my own home – from colors of paints, selection of granite, tiles, flooring, and design. They also assisted me with the selection of fabrics and furnishings. Additionally, when I built my RE/MAX office, Simple Elegance/Houston Staging & Design was the company I turned to for design, finishes and furnishings for the office space as well."

"We hired Staging The Nest to design our short term rental / corporate housing apartments. They did 3 apartments in January, 1 in February, 1 in March and 1 in April of 2022! They created a gorgeous design, purchased all needed items from the silverware to the bed linens and more for our units, and their team came in and setup everything. They did a fabulous job for us and we highly recommend them!"

"Thank you so much for everything. The Short-term rental property is perfect!"
