About us.
Overdrive Design House is a woman-owned business on a mission to help people create home spaces that bring joy, tranquility, and efficiency into their daily lives.
We do this by providing a unique mix of services for homeowners, contractors, realtors, developers, and other design professionals to support the design, permitting, construction, and sales processes for new and existing homes.
Our homes provide us with more than just shelter - they provide comfort, safety, and inspiration to become our best selves. We raise our families and entertain our friends in these spaces. To do this job well, our homes ought to be as beautiful as they are functional.
As construction and material costs increase, it is more important than ever to focus on smaller footprints and doing more with less. Overdrive Design House aims to help and inspire people to create beautiful, functional living spaces, even within smaller footprints. However, we will never sacrifice joy or quality in our homes.
We believe that the design process and outcome is a human experience. Our care, concern, and thoughtfulness brings a unique level of service for our clients.
We prioritize materials and craftsmanship in our projects and products for longevity of enjoyment. Our artists and craftsmen are as local as possible, and we value American made products.
Budget constraints are just another design challenge - there is always a way to make a space more beautiful and enjoyable at any price point.
Meet the ladies of Overdrive.
