The Philosophy

The spaces we inhabit shape the way we live

Palm Atelier is a full-service interior design studio grounded in quiet luxury and coastal ease. We edit each client's signature aesthetic into interiors that are genre-defying, effortlessly refined, and unmistakably their own.

The Designer

Chalea Fields

Chalea Fields is the founder and principal designer of Palm Atelier, bringing a fashion-informed perspective and an instinct for curation to every project she touches. Her work is genre-defying — interiors that feel both timeless and quietly glamorous, sophisticated with personality.

A classically trained designer, Chalea draws her inspiration from the light, water, and architecture of Florida's Gulf Coast, translating that ease into bespoke interiors for a clientele who value beauty and function in equal measure.

Each project is named rather than addressed — a small convention that keeps our clients' homes their own. Three are shown here, with more added as they are photographed.

Featured Project

Flamingo

A room built with a bit more license than everyday client work — bold pattern, saturated color, and a playful hand. A different register than the rest of this portfolio, and intentionally so.

Chalea Fields is the founder and principal designer of Palm Atelier, bringing a fashion-informed perspective and an instinct for curation to every project she touches. Her work is genre-defying — interiors that feel both timeless and quietly glamorous, sophisticated with personality.

A classically trained designer, Chalea now draws her inspiration from the light, water, and architecture of Florida's Gulf Coast, translating that ease into bespoke interiors for a clientele who value beauty and function in equal measure.

Every engagement is guided by clear communication, meaningful collaboration, and unwavering transparency, resulting in spaces that are as thoughtfully crafted as they are lived-in.

What We Offer

Services

Three ways to work with the studio, from a single considered room to a ground-up build.

I.

Full-Service Design

A complete, white-glove partnership from first concept through final styling. We collaborate with architects and builders on every material, finish, and furnishing so your home is realized exactly as envisioned.

II.

Petite Project Design

Focused, elevated refreshes for a single room or vignette — space planning, sourcing, and styling for clients who want a considered update without a full renovation.

III.

Remodel & New Construction

Creative direction and contractor coordination for renovations and ground-up builds, bringing a cohesive design vision to every structural and aesthetic decision.

What to Expect

A considered pace, start to finish

Every engagement begins with a consultation and a clearly scoped proposal, so you know what the work involves before it starts. From there the studio manages sourcing, lead times, budget, and on-site coordination, and finishes with a full installation and a curated binder for the completed home.
