about haute design

Design that is rooted in intentionality, timelessness, and a deeply personalized approach.

With more than 25 years of industry experience, Autumn has built the firm around the belief that a well designed home should feel elevated, welcoming, and effortlessly livable.

Known for refined interiors that balance classic foundations with a modern sensibility, Haute Design focuses on thoughtful investment, craftsmanship, and creating spaces that genuinely reflect the people living within them. Every project is approached with care and intention, resulting in homes that feel sophisticated, cohesive, and deeply personal.

At its core, Haute Design is about more than beautiful interiors. It is about creating homes that enhance everyday living, foster connection, and feel aligned with each client’s lifestyle and vision.

Meet the Designer

Autumn Kasel , or “Sissi,” as she’s known to family, friends, and longtime clients, founded Haute Design in 2010 with a vision of creating interiors that feel timeless, elevated, and deeply personal. After years of experience working for a nationally recognized design firm, she felt drawn to a more hands-on and personal approach to design, one where clients feel guided, cared for, and fully connected to the process from beginning to end.

As founder and lead designer, Autumn is inspired by transformation, not only of spaces, but of the way people experience their homes. She values thoughtful details, layered materials, and refined functionality, always creating spaces that feel sophisticated, welcoming, and effortlessly livable. Her clients trust her to bring clarity, creativity, and intention to every project.

Outside of Design

Outside of design, Autumn’s life is centered around family. As a mom, wife, daughter, and sister, she finds inspiration in the beauty of everyday living. That balance between elevated design and real life continues to shape her approach, allowing her to create homes that feel both refined and deeply personal.
