Every home and every client has a story worth telling.

As principal of Studio Sidebar Designs, Stacee Hasenbalg creates timeless interiors that honor a home’s character while reflecting the lives of those who live there. Her work is distinguished by thoughtful use of color, layered materials, and an intuitive balance of history and modern living.

With roots in the West Coast and the Midwest, Stacee’s perspective is shaped by a lifelong appreciation for architecture, craftsmanship, and the enduring beauty of well-designed homes. She studied interior design at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and apprenticed with an architectural firm in Chicago after a successful corporate career.

Studio Sidebar Designs grew from the renovation of her own home - a deeply personal project that affirmed her belief that the most compelling interiors are those that evolve with intention, honor the past, and become part of a family’s future.
