The name is a tribute to two islands, Sint Maarten and Saint Croix, where our founder's family story began. Two homes that converged into one, holding the warmth and belonging that shaped her.
Maarten Croix is a STAGING AND INTERIOR DESIGN STUDIO IN DURHAM, NC. SHAPING HOMES THAT SELL, ROOMS MADE TO BE LIVED IN, AND SPACES WITH A JOB TO DO.

That belief travels. It shows up in a home staged to sell, in a room built for the people who actually live in it, and in a lobby with a job to do. Good design is never just decoration. The same eye that makes a home feel like home makes a space sell, lease, and last.
We come from humble beginnings, and they shaped what we believe. Luxury wears many forms. A warm bed at the end of a long day. The perfect leather sofa. A backlit stone focal wall that stops you where you stand. Whatever it means to you, our work is to meet you there.
Every space we make starts there.
Luxury should be within reach.
Kelsey works by one rule: less, but chosen well. Clean lines, quiet palettes, one intentional note of warmth. She finds design everywhere, in fungi on bark, in a stranger's silhouette, in the unexpected details no one else notices.
