Homes staged to sell. Homes designed to stay.
Warm, editorial staging and interior design from Durham, serving the Triangle.
A studio in Durham
Thoughtful interiors, on time.
Oakhouse Interiors is a home staging and interior design studio in Durham, North Carolina, run by Samantha and Chad Abel — a husband-and-wife team. We stage listings across the Triangle so they sell faster, and we design interiors for the homeowners who decide to stay.
Every Oakhouse install is considered, calm, and warm — the opposite of the gray-flip staging you already know. We believe the way a house photographs should match the way it actually feels to live in.
What we do
Three ways we work.
From a vacant listing we photograph on a Tuesday to a living room you've been trying to fix for four years — we can help.
Interior Design
For the home you are staying in. Room by room or whole-home, flat-fee pricing so you always know what it costs.

One-Day Redesign
A single room reimagined with a mix of what you already own and targeted new pieces. Installed in a day.

A refreshed traditional in North Durham. We staged six rooms to show how a young family could actually live in it — a round dining table that keeps the breakfast nook open, layered textiles in the living room, and accessories that read as a weeknight, not a photo shoot.
For real estate agents
For the agents who list the Triangle's best homes.
Working with agents is the heart of our business. If you list homes in Durham, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Cary, or anywhere across the Triangle, we'd like to be the stager you call first. Reliable installs. Aesthetic that photographs better. Transparent, tiered pricing.

"It felt finished the day the truck left. Our offer landed the following Tuesday — and the buyers told our agent it was the warmest staged home they'd walked into all spring."
