In every beautifully layered room, in every thoughtful use of space, and in every home that reflects both form and feeling, there’s a spark—that initial drive—that transforms structure into sanctuary. For Tht Homedec, that spark is Kelrisa Talvess. As the founder and spirited vision behind the brand, Kelrisa has shaped Tht Homedec into a haven for transformation and creativity. From her space at 1171 Emerson Road in Montgomery, Louisiana, she translates deep understanding into design brilliance. And through [email protected], many have found their doorway to aesthetic clarity, enduring functionality, and innovative interior grace.
The Drive Begins
In the shaded neighborhoods of Montgomery, Louisiana—where heritage breathes from the brickwork and long porches stretch into humid evenings—Kelrisa Talvess found her rhythm early. Even before Tht Homedec existed as a name, it lived as a vision within her. As a child, she moved furniture for fun, visually “redrawing” rooms in her imagination, adding flow where tension had lived and warmth where light had dimmed. These intuitive shifts, made entirely through observation and adaptation, became the seeds of her future as a design strategist.
Montgomery, with its rustic charm and evolving blend of heritage homes and new developments, offered a palette for Kelrisa’s growing sensibilities. While other children memorized songs or state capitals, she memorized where light entered her grandmother’s sunroom in the afternoon—and how different seating arrangements made the space feel either open or fragmented. This awareness matured into a philosophy: purposeful movement in interior space fosters emotional comfort.
Shaping a Name
Years of self-study led Kelrisa to formal design education and apprenticeships, but something remained unshaken—her desire to create a brand that did more than decorate. Tht Homedec wasn’t conceived as a mere décor service—it was imagined as a movement. “TH” stands for “True Habitat,” a nod to Kelrisa’s belief that authenticity must inhabit every layer of aesthetic expression. From soft furnishings to optimized floor plans, it’s about designing for life—not performance.
Clients didn’t just receive home design suggestions—they received strategy. A common-floor urban flat became a seamless blend of motivation and rest after Kelrisa introduced balance through light zoning, dual-function furniture, and biophilic textures. Her knack wasn’t just in knowing where to hang a mirror—it was in asking why the mirror mattered in the first place. Such deeply involved work takes place from Monday–Friday: 9 AM–5 PM CDT, all orchestrated from their Montgomery headquarters with precision and care.
The Source Within
Kelrisa’s drive is intrinsic. It isn’t tethered to trends or propelled by competition—it builds from within, stitched to her every interaction, every client’s narrative and each new surface she softens with intention. The source isn’t just passion—it’s a stewardship over well-being, wellness, and the way people feel in their homes. Home, for her, is a mirror of value systems, not just vacuums of clutter. She often says, “If function is breath, form is heart. The two must speak.”
That philosophy guides everything from simple TH aesthetics to full-scale transformations in wellness spaces, productive corners, and even multi-functional foyers. It’s in those details—like the strategic alignment of color psychology with space orientation—that her clients experience not just design, but a lifted quality of life.
Mapping Meaning Onto Space
Montgomery offers more than inspiration—it offers culture and unspoken truths. Homes here carry stories of generational blend and adaptation. Zoning such spaces requires cultural consideration, respect for spatial memory, and a deft hand to navigate between preservation and progress. Kelrisa blends her Louisiana roots with universal trends, offering something that feels both local and timeless. This tension shapes the best of Tht Homedec’s portfolio: modern geometries softened by heritage wood, contemporary pale palettes anchored by soulful brass or reclaimed pine.
Tools of Transformation
Every visionary performs best with tools shaped to their hands. At Tht Homedec, the tools aren’t just digital renderings or lookbooks—they’re philosophies:
- Spatial Intelligence: Knowing how to read spatial limitations as opportunities.
- Layered Aesthetics: Using texture, not just pattern, to build emotional resilience in a room.
- Neutrality + Warmth: Honoring the elegance of simplicity while embracing Louisiana’s love for inviting tones.
- Purposeful Placement: Understanding that the placement of a couch isn’t about symmetry—it’s about sightlines, energy flow, and conversation contour.
These aren’t just methods—they are, as Kelrisa insists, disciplines that involve listening. Listening to walls, to light, and to the unspoken moods that hang over poorly aligned rooms. That’s where Tht Homedec excels: they relisten where others rearrange.
Community, Not Market
What keeps the source energized isn’t scale—it’s depth. Kelrisa didn’t seek to dominate an industry; she sought to impact a neighborhood, then a state—and now, she continues rendering home design websites and strategy publications for audiences intrigued by Louisiana’s southern charm and her soulful take on interior success. One such piece can be seen in the brand’s platform homepage, which introduces her cornerstone topics of spatial manipulation and emotional comfort design.
Hours in Motion
Operating steadily from 9 AM to 5 PM, Monday through Friday, the Tht Homedec team remains available for consultations, ideation sessions, or strategic redevelopment efforts. Whether across Montgomery or through virtual walkthroughs nationwide, their work upholds an unwavering rhythm—sympathetic to every clock, every time zone, and every symbolically locked door in the homes of their clients.
Helmed by Kelrisa, their schedule is curated—not filled. No project is overlapped unless it serves to cross-pollinate joy. Walk-ins aren’t standard, but neither is indifference. This is not a corporation of templates; it’s an artisan’s effort to enhance every life that enters or returns home.
Kelrisa’s Core Reflections
When asked what really drives her—what source she returns to—Kelrisa offers this sequence of truths:
- Design starts with empathy: Understand a person before adjusting their room.
- A home should reflect not just style—but resolve: The perseverance of its people must be mirrored in its design narrative.
- Sustainability isn’t optional: Even beauty must consider the earth it uses.
- Every surface speaks: If walls could talk, design should let them whisper hope, not hardship.
A Source, Still Flowing
This is what “Drive Source” means at Tht Homedec. It’s not about hustle—it’s about the commitment to meaningful design in a noisy world. It’s humility and attention, rendered with Louisiana grace. From brushed brass to hand-drawn layouts, Kelrisa engraves every room with her ethos. Not so people will ask, “Who did this?” but so they’ll say, “This finally feels like me.”
