Perfectly Placed by Design

WHERE EVERY DETAIL FINDS ITS PLACE

We believe staging is more than arranging furniture, it’s about creating an emotional connection.

Crafting Spaces that Connect

Mission

At Perfectly Placed by Design, our mission is to elevate and transform every property’s presentation with purposeful staging—transforming with intention and elegance. Our goal is to provide another strategic resource for listing agents to assist their sellers in gaining a competitive advantage over unstaged listings in the current marketplace.

Vision​

Our goal is to have every home becoming an inviting, aspirational backdrop to be recognized as an indispensable bridge between property and prospective buyer—bringing clarity, warmth, and emotional resonance to every space we touch.

Brand Story

“Where Every Detail Finds Its Place" This is more than a tagline. It’s the core of everything we do.

Perfectly Placed by Design was born from the need to provide RESIDENTIAL STAGING to listing agents and their clients, as an additional resource to ensure a competitive advantage when marketing a property for sale.

Founded by Marla and Dale—a duo who combine a keen sense of design with real estate expertise—Perfectly Placed by Design blends creative artistry with practical know-how to ensure every detail is thoughtfully executed.

Whether collaborating with real estate agents, a home seller, or supporting a seasoned investor, we approach each project with a steadfast commitment to clarity, calm, and creativity. From vacant homes to Airbnb/VRBO conversions, our process—rooted in design and execution—lets every space realize its full potential.

We don’t just stage houses. We curate environments that feel lived-in, aspirational, and inherently “home.” Because when every detail finds its place, homes don’t just sell, they connect with the buyer.
