About The Studio
The Decoré team is one of the leading interior design companies in the Greater Houston area. Since our establishment in 2010, we have experienced significant growth in size and reputation, and we couldn’t be happier. We are officially approved by the Better Business Bureau, and our priority is to understand the specific needs of each client, applying those insights throughout the entire design process.
We have rebranded from "Decore & More Design Studio" to "Decoré | Gerty Portillo" to better reflect the vision of our founder. This transition has strengthened our company and clarified the identity of our brand, showcasing the exceptional work produced over the years.
Our creations are born from collaboration with each client, which is why we involve them in every step of the process to ensure our work aligns with their vision. Whether it's a single room, an entire home, or a commercial space, we carefully consider every aspect needed: architecture, interior design, custom furniture, fabrics, color palettes, and art. The end result is an inspiring space that promotes well-being.
