Meet the face
behind Shape The Abode

Lovely to meet you, I'm Vanessa!

​

I’m an interior designer and content creator proudly based in Chicago. I’m the face behind Shape The Abode, your go-to destination for interior design inspiration and tips on transforming your home into a space you’ll love.

​

My journey in interior design has been a labor of love, driven by my passion for creating homes that are as functional as they are beautiful. While I adore aesthetics, I firmly believe functionality comes first—because a truly stunning space shines brightest when it’s tailored to your unique needs.

​

When I’m not collaborating with my amazing clients to bring their design visions to life, I’m partnering with trusted brands to showcase innovative products and share exclusive design insights. These collaborations enable me to curate authentic, high-quality content that inspires and empowers you to make your home uniquely yours.

​

Through Shape The Abode, I share my personal story, expert design tips, and creative ideas to help you craft a space that reflects your personality and lifestyle. From actionable advice to thoughtfully curated product recommendations, I’m here to guide you every step of the way on your interior design journey. My mission is simple: to help you transform your space into a functional and meaningful home.

​

Let’s shape your abode into a home you’ll cherish for years to come!
