Robyne Simpson

It's no surprise that Robyne chose to pursue a degree in interior design when she attended Texas Tech University! Having grown up around her dad's floorcovering business and having spent countless hours sewing everything from bathrobes to bathing suits with her mother, it was just a natural progression. She loves mixing patterns, textures and materials that her clients would never think to put together! She says, "I think that's my job!"

Robyne's career has always centered around high-end products, ranging from commercial design (where she helped design financial institutions) to working in "To the Trade" design showroom sales to her current job at Ethan Allen, which she's had for more than 12 years.

Robyne wants to make selections that put a smile on her client's face, not just what's trendy or current today. She understands this is an investment; in fact, her favorite rooms are the ones that blend different genres (classic and modern) in a way you can't put a date on. Starting out on her own after college, she inherited some of her grandmother's treasures, so she appreciates the value of incorporating existing cherished items her clients have. She tries to simplify the design process and make it fun.

In her spare time, Robyne enjoys getting inspired by all of nature, her Siberian huskies, and her friends.

Renee Parenteau

Renee has a BFA from Syracuse University. She began her design career in 2012 after working as a senior art director in advertising and as a freelance graphic designer. She loves working with clients to develop well-balanced, creative solutions that have a fresh, classic look. Her design solutions deliver long-term value and stand the test of time.

Faith Villarreal

Faith has more than 25 years of design experience and specializes in color. With a strong influence from the original Paint Encyclopedia (her daddy) and Color Expert (her mama), Faith grew up saying the words viscosity, satin, and periwinkle while other kids grew up saying sticky, shiny, and blue (her seventh-grade science fair project was on how paint color changes under incandescent, fluorescent, and natural lighting).

Faith knows she is doing what she was born to do: help others, teach others, and guide them on their design journey. Known locally as the Color Lady, she has an incredible eye for detail and is very specific with her suggestions to best suit her client's desires. Faith has been awarded Best Color Consultant in the South and nominated Best of Denton. She has given PK talks to global businesses, designers, and design students.

Faith grew up in the DFW area, attended Texas Tech University and is now settled in Denton with her husband, Marcus, and their daughter, Kate. They live in a classic Southern home where Faith hosts friends and family, loves to entertain, and never stops decorating! When she isn’t influencing others on their designs, you‘ll spot her scouring estate sales and flea markets in search of unique and coveted home goods.
