OUR e·thos
/ˈēTHäs/
We don’t design a look. We create a world.
Casa Metta is an Austin-based interior design studio creating deeply personal, highly considered spaces with soul.
Our work is rooted in the belief that the most compelling interiors aren’t defined by a singular style. They evolve from the people who inhabit them — their rituals, histories, collections, curiosities and the way they want to feel.
We pair architectural rigor with intuition, layering natural materials, art, vintage and collectible pieces, custom furnishings and the occasional unexpected moment to create interiors that feel as though they could belong to no one else.
metta
/ˈmɛtə/
Metta is loving-kindness —
a generous, all-embracing way of moving through the world.
It is the spirit behind our name and the philosophy behind our work.
/ἔννοια/
Beauty with intention.
Beauty and responsibility aren’t mutually exclusive.
We favor natural materials, enduring craftsmanship and thoughtful sourcing, with consideration for the health of the people who inhabit our spaces and the impact of the materials we introduce into them.
Rather than designing for a moment, we design for longevity — creating spaces worth living with, caring for and keeping.
Collected, not decorated.
We believe a room should reveal itself over time.
Old with new. Refined with imperfect. Quiet moments beside something that makes you look twice.
We seek out objects with character and materials that become more beautiful with age, collaborating with artists, makers and craftspeople to create spaces with depth, provenance and a sense of discovery.
The result is not a perfectly prescribed interior.
It is a home that feels collected, lived in and entirely your own.
Spaces should make you feel something.
Ultimately, that’s what Metta means to us.
Design can change the way we gather, rest, celebrate and experience everyday life.
Our goal is to create spaces that feel good to inhabit, impossible to replicate and difficult to forget.
Considered. Collected. A little unexpected. Entirely yours.
