OUR STORY
The Beginning:
FMYH started in 2018 as a creative passion project beyond the limits of corporate design—a blog, a mood board, a place to explore and escape.
Over time, conversations became collaborations, and what began as a personal outlet grew into a professional practice.
Fancy Meeting You Here…
The name Fancy Meeting You Here reflects the unexpected intersections of life—the moments when people, places, and ideas converge.
It’s a phrase that has followed our founder for years and continues to shape how we approach design: as a process of discovery and connection.
Where Are We Now?
Today, Fancy Meeting You Here is a full-service interior design practice partnering with purpose-driven business owners, organizations, and developers to create intentional, adaptable places.
