Design and build, curated with timeless style.

Interior Design • Bespoke Builders • eDesign • Wild Poppy Hill • Basil & Birch

Welcome

I’m Christina, and I believe in creating homes that are beautiful, functional, and thoughtfully designed for the way you live.

At Christina Armbrister Design + Build, we bring together full-service interior design, bespoke construction through CA Bespoke Builders, and accessible support through our eDesign Studio. Every project is approached with a focus on purpose, comfort, and timeless style — creating spaces that feel intentional today and enduring for years to come.

You’ll also find the unfolding story of our own home at Wild Poppy Hill, along with curated lifestyle goods through Basil and Birch that reflect the textures, materials, and simple luxuries we love.

Inside the Journal, we share the heart of it all — design inspiration, building progress, gardening, recipes, gatherings, and the meaningful moments that make home feel truly special.
