Reimagine Your Home…or Find the Right One
FREE MONTHLY COFFEE CHAT · MAIN LINE, PENNSYLVANIA
Maybe the kids have outgrown their rooms. Maybe you're dreaming of a bigger kitchen. Maybe you've walked past your neighbor's addition and thought… could we do that too?
Pull up a chair. We'd love to talk it through over coffee, just like you would with friends. No prep. No pressure. Just an easy, honest conversation with an interior designer and a realtor who are here to listen.
You come with questions. You leave with clarity.
WHAT HAPPENS AT OUR COFFEE CHATS
Real Renovation Costs
We break down what renovation projects actually cost, room by room, at every investment level. So you can plan confidently before a single contractor walks through your door.
The True Cost of Selling
What does it actually cost to list, stage, and sell your home? We'll walk through the numbers and the ROI so you can make a decision based on facts, not fear.
Wondering Where to Start
The question every homeowner asks and nobody answers well. We'll give you a clear framework and the right questions to ask yourself to finally move forward.
When the decision is to stay and invest in the life you actually want to live.
THE RENOVATE SIDE
When the decision is to move on and find the home that finally fits.
THE SELL SIDE
REAL STORIES
Two homeowners. Two crossroads.
Two very different and very right decisions.
THE DESIGN PERSPECTIVE · SABINE HAYES
They chose to stay and made it everything they ever wanted.
A family in New Jersey bought their home with a clear intention. This was where they would raise their family and build their dream, one floor at a time, one project at a time. They found me the same way many of my best clients do: a friend's home stopped them in their tracks and they asked who the designer was.
By the time they were ready for their backyard, the landscape architect and contractors were already at work building a custom pool, covered canopy with an outdoor kitchen, and outdoor bathroom. What they needed now was a designer to bring the interior vision outside.
That's where I came in. We designed the lounge area, selected the bathroom finishes, and created a dining space that felt like a seamless extension of their home's interior - warm, intentional, and built for the way their family actually lives and entertains.
They didn't just complete a construction project. They invested in a life they never want to leave home for.
When the answer is stay - the right design makes it undeniable.
— Sabine Guillaume HayesTHE REAL ESTATE PERSPECTIVE · MELISSA ZIMMERMAN
They loved their neighborhood but their home had stopped working for them.
A couple came to Melissa feeling stuck. They loved where they lived, but their home wasn't keeping up with their life. The kitchen felt cramped. One bathroom for a family of four had gone from inconvenient to genuinely uncomfortable.
They weren't sure if they should renovate and push through, or sell and find something that actually fit. Melissa listened, really listened, ran the numbers, and helped them see their options clearly. The decision to sell wasn't a loss. It was a step forward into a home that could actually hold their life.
Melissa did her homework, provided valuable insight, and made the transition from my previous house to my current home a fun and stress-free experience.

YOUR HOSTS
A designer and a realtor walk into a
coffee shop.
Sabine Guillaume Hayes is an interior designer serving homeowners across Southeastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and nationwide virtually.
Melissa Zimmerman is both an interior designer and a real estate advisor based on the Main Line.
They both went to the same art school. They met at a women's luncheon. And somewhere over coffee they realized they'd been answering the same question from two completely different angles.
So they created a space for exactly that.
Every month. Over coffee. For you.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
They came with questions.
They left with a plan.
“Sabine was vital in the reconstruction of our family home after our house fire in February of 2021. From start to finish, from working with the architect on the blueprints, bringing in a contractor who she works really well with, and everything down to the last detail of when our home was finished… knobs to furniture and accent pieces… I SOOO appreciate Sabine’s awesome sense of style, and how she helped us bring everything together. This is especially considering how emotional everything was for our family. I would recommend Sabine and Georgette Marise Interiors to any and everyone!! Five stars all the way!!”
— Annette, Design Client
“I have always been impressed with Melissa’s dedication to her customers by listening to the needs of her clients and providing a professional and personal satisfaction that is specifically and uniquely catered to them. When I decided to buy a house (and sell my existing), there was no doubt who I was going to use. While I recognize I am not the easiest of clients, I knew she would get it done in the time and price range I needed. She did her homework, did the work, provided valuable insight and was a resource that made my the transition from my previous house to my current home a fun and stress free experience.”
