Formed from a love of beautiful things, old and new.
Maison Bibelot is a boutique interior design and sourcing studio based in Houston, Texas creating layered, personal interiors through an unexpected mix of art, antiques and contemporary design.
We believe the most compelling homes aren’t created all at once. They evolve through layering meaningful art, objects, travel, history representing the people who live in them.
Good design is personal.
Great design is collected.
Maison Bibelot was born from a love of the hunt the antique with perfect patina, the artwork that changes a room, or the unexpected object that completes your space.
We mix periods freely, pairing antiques, contemporary design, fine art, color, and objects with history to create rooms that feel sophisticated without taking themselves too seriously.
A house of beautiful things
Maison Bibelot
Maison is French for house. Bibelot is a French word describing a small object treasured for its beauty, curiosity or character.
Our name reflects what has always drawn us to interiors: not simply how a room looks, but the objects within it where they came from, why they were chosen and the stories they carry.
Founder + Creative Director
Allaire Clark
Allaire founded Maison Bibelot from an instinct for finding the piece that makes a room a breathtaking work of art, an antique with beautiful patina, or the object you didn’t know you were looking for until you saw it.
Her approach is rooted in contrast: old with new, refined with playful, quiet moments alongside something unexpected. Rather than designing around a prescribed style, Allaire creates interiors that feel as though they have evolved naturally over time.
Travel and sourcing are central to her work. From European antiques to contemporary fine art and one-of-a-kind finds closer to home, she is continually searching for pieces with character, craftsmanship and a story worth carrying forward.
Prior to founding Maison Bibelot, Allaire spent a decade in the corporate world before turning her longstanding passion for interiors into a full-time practice.
our point of view
We don’t believe everything has to match or be new. And a beautiful home should take itself too seriously.
WE DO BELIEVE in rooms with history, personality and a little tension where an antique chest can live beside contemporary art and something wonderfully strange found at a flea market.
How we work
One piece.
One room he whole house.
Sometimes a room needs one extraordinary piece. Sometimes it needs an entirely new point of view.
Maison Bibelot offers interior design, art advisory and sourcing at every scale from finding the piece that completes a room to shaping an entire home.
History.
Personality.
A little tension.
