Welcome

“These residential interiors have a strong sense of character and a story to tell, no matter historic or contemporary architecture.” - Archdigest.com

Savannah’s Home and Design is a full-service design and remodeling studio led by husband and wife team Carlin and Courtney Petrin. Originally from New England and now based in Downtown Sarasota, Florida, our love for home was shaped by the historic houses we grew up admiring. Each one carried a story, full of character and charm, and that perspective continues to guide how we approach renovation and design today.

 

At the heart of our work is a simple belief: a house only becomes a home when soul is infused into every detail. We design with both function and beauty in mind, creating interiors made for real family living. We value timelessness over trends, choosing details that endure. Personalization is essential, with each design rooted in story, heritage, and identity so that every home feels authentic to the people who live there.

​

Our design ethos blends together our European and New England roots to create elegant, calming and soulful homes. We infuse our client's lifestyle, stories, and preferences into our design perspective to create truly bespoke homes. A psychology-driven approach helps translate surface desires into meaningful design that mirrors the way our client’s live

​

We also specialize in custom cabinetry and millwork, often built in-house, allowing us to create bespoke solutions that other design studios typically outsource. Influenced by our New England roots and European heritage, our work feels timeless, soulful, and distinct—refined but approachable, curated but lived-in, sophisticated yet soulful.

Meet Courtney

Courtney Petrin is the co-founder and creative force behind Savannah’s Home & Design. With a background and advanced degree in clinical psychology paired with a passion for timeless interiors; Courtney approaches design as both art and an emotional experience. She believes that homes should do more than look beautiful — they should reflect the people who live in them, telling their stories through a soulful lens. 

​

Rooted in her New England heritage and inspired by European influences, Courtney blends classic craftsmanship with modern refinement. Her style is defined by quiet luxury — warm neutrals, organic textures, and layered details that create spaces both cosmopolitan and deeply livable. An effortless elegance is captured in all her projects each element carefully curated to harmonize without being overwhelming. This restraint gives her work a quiet confidence: interiors that whisper sophistication and endure over time.

 

As a boutique studio owner, Courtney takes on a select number of projects each year, ensuring her direct involvement in every detail. Clients choose her not only for her refined aesthetic, but for her ability to listen deeply, interpret personal stories, and transform them into soulful and enduring interiors catered to each client.

​

If you lean into what is meaningful to people instead of chasing trends; you craft spaces that last a lifetime, not just a season.

Courtney Petrin 

Courtney and Carlin renovated our three bathrooms and Courtney has also helped design my master bedroom design and other elements missing in our home. Courtney is absolutely amazing and my boho guru/goddess. They did excellent work and will definitely be having them back for more projects.

OUR PHILOSOPHY 

Houses become homes when there is soul infused into them.

We love creating personalized homes that exude personal style, and a timeless predisposition and act as a backdrop to create memories and evoke emotion. To achieve this we love to get to know our clients, their styles, individual personality, family, and specific needs. Most people do not fall perfectly into a singular design style. People are not simply one note. They are complex, layered, and interesting. We view home the same way.

 

Your home should reflect the layers of your family, memories, and heritage. We love to take inspiration from those sources and elevate your style. That’s where the magic happens. Mixing styles much like the complexity of a personality create personalization and the foundation for a timeless home that is reflective of those living there. Spaces that inspire, excite or calm while providing well-being. We love to give people the confidence to create their style instead of simply following trends. Our perspective is rooted in approachability, nature, rustic, and organic elements that shift and change from client to client.
