About Pearle & Pierce
I opened the doors of Pearle & Pierce Home in 2011, ready to break out on my own to pursue my vision of bringing interiors to life with my intuitive aesthetics, business practices, and philosophies.
I am a referral only decorating firm. I find this gives a more personalized experience to my clients. My high-quality, tailor made service has resulted in long term clients who return over and over for every new home, remodel, and seasonal refresh.
Trends, magazine spreads, social media likes and public accolades are not what motivate me. Instead I am driven by working with clients to design an authentic representation of their taste and lifestyle. I love knowing that my clients are proud, happy, comfortable, and thriving in homes personally designed for them and not by a designer's ego.
My other identities include: Mother, Wife, Psychic Medium, Reiki Healer, Dog Freak, Goat Lover, Shoe Addict, Foodie, and Former Talent and Modeling Agent.
What’s behind the name?
PEARLE with an E
My Father was named Earle Bertrand Johnson Jr.. Friends called him “Earle the Pearl” or just “Pearl” for short. The spelling of his first name, “Earle” ended with an “e” so I added it to my company name. I wanted to be reminded of him everyday while doing business. A reminder that he is here and everywhere I am. Especially in my heart.
PIERCE
My paternal grandmother’s maiden name was Francis Pierce. I chose her last name for my daughter's middle name as a nod to my Southern roots.
The charm and warmth of my grandmother with the artistic independence of my daughter is at the heart of my business.
HOME
Home is a part of our identity, a comforting place to which we seek to return. Home evokes feelings of security and safety, providing foundations for our personal growth and well being.
