MARY AMES & CO.

Mary Korth, decorator and founder of Mary Ames and Co. studied at The University of St. Thomas in Houston, TX with a background in Art History. Her love of textures, luxurious fabrics, photography, beautiful hardware, sculpture & maximalist design led her to Los Angeles where she began her career in decorating at the Pacific Design Center. After her time in Los Angeles, Mary returned to Austin where she then co-founded a residential design firm Ashby Ames with former design partner Mark Ashby, later forming Mary Ames & Co.  Over her 16-year experience in residential design, Mary has curated homes in Austin, Houston and New York. By mixing her style of unexpected elegance in layered textures, mid-century antiques and classic modern decor, Mary creates distinctly chic interiors while always encomposing the lifestyle of each client.
