About Stephanie

Stephanie believes that every interior should tell a story. It’s not enough for a space to be functional and beautiful—a good interior should spark emotion, invite dialogue, and make people curious to know more. This philosophy grew out of her fine arts training and entrepreneurial spirit. After studying Studio Art at Dartmouth College, she moved to Chicago to work in galleries and non-profit art centers before launching her textile brand, Agnes & Hoss. The line—featuring handbags, pillows, lighting, and accessories—was sold nationwide in stores like Anthropologie and ABC Home.

Stephanie’s work quickly gained recognition: The Chicago Tribune named her one of the “top ten designers to keep an eye on,” and she was honored by Fashion Group International of New York as a Rising Star. Agnes & Hoss products, along with Stephanie’s own home, appeared in House Beautiful, Metropolitan Home, Elle Decoration UK, InStyle, and Chicago Magazine.

In 2010, Stephanie moved with her husband and son to Boulder, Colorado, drawn to the mountains and a desire to live closer to nature. There, her passion for how people live in and connect with spaces grew into a calling. She had become increasingly passionate about how we live in, and navigate, space and was consumed with the belief that people should love the spaces where they live, work and socialize. Shortly after, she earned an MFA in Interior Architecture and Design in and founded Istoria Interior Design, now a full-service studio creating residential and commercial interiors filled with meaning, humanity, story, and soul.
