Inspired by the World. Designed for Yours.
We're here to help you create a space so memorable, it tells your story before you even say a word.
We help you ban the bland, and create a home that reflects your most colorful life.
We were tired of cookie-cutter decor, soulless rooms, and ‘meh’ mass production. So we built SmithHönig—a creative rebellion made of color, culture, and bold expression. One of us is a Southern designer with an eye for what’s next. The other is a global wanderer with a camera and a paintbrush. Together, we turn memory, art, and a little rule-breaking into designs you won’t find anywhere else.
Kellie Smith - Co-Founder
Creative Director | Chief Rebel-in-Residence
An award-winning interior designer and textile designer, with a fearless love of color and pattern, Kellie curates and refines the SmithHönig collections—scaling, recoloring, and composing each one with a designer’s precision and an editor’s eye for impact.
Melanie Hönig - Co-Founder
Pattern Alchemist | Chief Creative Wanderer
A trained painter and photographer, Melanie creates the original artwork behind SmithHönig’s fabrics, wallpapers, and decor. With roots in the fine art world and a love of global travel and literature, her designs are infused with rich visual storytelling and a sense of wanderlust.

You're the Muse. We're the Co-Conspirators.
We’re not here to dictate a look or prescribe a palette. We’re here to help you bring your vision to life—whether that means mixing florals with stripes, layering vintage with velvet, or doing something no one’s dared yet. This isn’t about following rules. It’s about breaking them beautifully. You’re the tastemaker. We’re the co-conspirators helping you create a home that’s unmistakably, unapologetically yours.
