Interior

Sarah Schmidt, Founder Silk & Slate

Couture

A home should feel like the favourite piece in your wardrobe: a perfect fit, a little daring and unmistakably you.

Every project begins with you: your rhythm, your travels, the places in the world where you feel most alive. From there grow spaces that are more than beautifully furnished. They tell your story and carry you through everyday life. From the first idea to the moment you arrive.

A city apartment, a penthouse or a second home in one of the great cities: at Silk & Slate, feeling meets clarity. Nothing off the rack. No detail without meaning. Refined and relaxed at once. You do not have to choose. Be both.

Silk

Soft · sensual · dreamy

The feeling. Fabrics you want to touch, light that embraces you, rooms where you kick off your shoes, exhale and simply let go.

Slate

Strong · clear · timeless

The foundation. Clean lines, honest materials. A clear point of view that impresses. A home as confident as you are.

Be both.

A manifesto

You work hard. Every single day.

You carry a lot of responsibility.

You have built so much.

Only your home is still waiting.

For later. For the right moment.

Stop waiting. The time is now. You are worth it.

Sarah Schmidt

Why now

What are you waiting for?

The right moment. More time. The right person by your side. There is always a reason to put your home off until later. And every year you wait, you live in spaces that do not fit you.

Your home is the place you wake up in every day. It does not deserve a someday. And neither do you.

I know what I am talking about. I waited for years myself, until I realised: the right moment does not arrive on its own. You decide on it.

That is what Silk & Slate is for. For everyone who gives everything in their career and is ready to give something to themselves now. Whether woman or man, on your own, as a couple or as a family.

You do not need to find time you do not have. I take planning and selection off your hands, in the Couture package right down to the finished shopping list, and guide you step by step. You make the decisions that are fun, right up to the moment you unlock the door and arrive.

– Sarah Schmidt, Founder

The process

Four fittings to home.

I

Getting to know you

We get to know each other: your rhythm, your life, the feeling you want to come home to.

II

Concept development

Moodboard, materials, floor plan layout and space planning that make your dream home visible for the first time and bring you closer to it.

III

Design development

Your living spaces become real, down to the smallest detail of materials, furniture, decor and art. Through the visualisations, you are already walking through your new home.

IV

Implementation & guidance

With the product selection, in the Couture package including shopping lists, technical drawings and detailed plans, you are ready to bring it to life. With my guidance, if you like.
