What We Consider in Every Stage
Selling your home is more than putting it on the market. It is about creating a first impression that stops buyers in their tracks and makes them feel an emotional connection the moment they walk through the door. At Storlie Design and Staging, we partner with Realtors and homeowners to transform properties into beautifully styled, market-ready homes that photograph flawlessly, stand out online, and inspire stronger offers. From our first consultation to installation day, you can expect a thoughtful, strategic approach designed to showcase your home’s full potential and make the selling process feel seamless and stress-free.
Strategic staging sells more than just a home.

We help Realtors and homeowners prepare homes for the market with thoughtfully designed staging that highlights each property’s unique character and helps buyers emotionally connect the moment they walk through the door.
Founded by Amy Storlie, our approach is anything but cookie-cutter. Every project is carefully designed to complement the architecture of the home, the neighborhood, and the target buyer. From luxury estates to charming condos, we create spaces that feel aspirational, inviting, and market-ready.
Our mission is simple: to help homes sell faster and for the highest possible price while making the process feel seamless and collaborative for our clients. We believe staging is more than decorating. It is a strategic marketing tool that tells a story and allows buyers to envision their future in the space.
Storlie Design and Staging is a boutique home staging and interior design company serving Morgan Hill, Gilroy, San Jose, and the surrounding South Bay.
Whether you are furnishing a new home, refreshing a single room, or planning a larger renovation, our design services help you create spaces that feel beautiful, functional, and uniquely yours.

"I can't say enough good things about Amy Storlie and her team. When it comes to staging, they knock it out of the park. Amy is very personable and communicates well with my clients. She knows how to present staging ideas without offending the sellers. I can just hand the keys to Amy and within a few hours the home looks like a model. Every home she has staged for my clients has sold for top dollar! Thank you Amy for always going the extra mile when it comes to staging and customer service."

"Amy and her team are amazing! I was shocked at how beautiful the house looked after just a quick tour & 3 hours of unloading a week later! Working with her is so effortless- she's easily reached via email & text and she goes the extra mile to ensure your house sells. I'm already working with her & her amazing team on other projects for my new home!"

"Amy at Storlie Design and Staging did an amazing job turning our dining room into a comfortable lounge that we actually use now. The space went from unused to one of our favorite rooms in the house. She was easy to work with, opened my eyes to new ideas, and worked within our budget. She really listened to how we wanted the space to feel and nailed it. We absolutely love it and highly recommend working with her!"

"Amy and her team truly are the best in the business. She is completely thorough and collaborative. Her designs are impeccable and I always receive compliments from those who walk through the homes she stages. She truly creates a story of a warm and inviting home that people want to create a future in.
In addition to the incredible designs, Amy is simply a joy to work with. She's fun to be around, honest in her reviews, and helpful in making design choices (paint, lighting, etc.) even before she stages. Her high level of organization also allowed me to reschedule when a listing was behind schedule by a week. I highly recommend Amy for anyone looking for a designer or need to stage a house."
Bonnie M.
realtor
"Amy did interior design for me. After a short visit to get to know me and the space, she came up with the most creative and beautiful ideas. One example is a music / game area. It was beyond my imagination. Amy did the design and furniture selection down to the smallest detail. Amy was super easy to work with and the rooms came together quickly. I truly enjoy my surroundings every day. I highly recommend Amy!"
