Our Story

A boutique studio built for people who believe where you are shapes what you do.

Cove Collective was built by an interior designer who got tired of beautiful design being reserved for private homes. Maria Williams has spent decades building those homes through her studio Cove Custom, and she wanted to give the women in her community somewhere that felt the same. A boutique studio in Herndon, Virginia, designed to be lived in, worked in, and gathered in.

Maria Williams

Collective Lead and Founder

Maria is the founder of Cove Custom, Northern Virginia’s boutique interior design and cabinetry studio, and the creative force behind Cove Collective. She built this space because she believes the environments we work in shape how we think, connect, and grow and that designers, entrepreneurs, and creatives deserve a place that actually reflects that belief.

Cove Collective is her answer to a question she kept hearing from clients: “Where can I find a space that feels like this outside my home?”
