Meet the founderS
THE SIMS
We are Taylor and Brandon Sims, the husband-and-wife team behind Sims Home. Our journey into home renovation + interior design started long before it became our full-time business. We met when we were just 16 and always shared a love for creating.
In the beginning, we flipped homes to fund our dream of starting a family, pouring everything we had into both our projects and multiple rounds of IVF. After seven long years, our world changed forever in 2017 when we welcomed our son, Leo— a dream come true. As we started to renovate + design homes, friends and family kindly passed our names along, and soon, our little passion project was no longer a sustainable side hustle. In 2019, we leaped and officially launched Love Sims Home full-time, evolving into Sims Home in 2025. Since then, we have been helping our clients create beautiful, functional homes designed for real life.
For us, great design is about more than just how a home looks— it’s about how it functions for your family. We believe in the details, creating a space that feels like you, and making the renovation process feel supportive and not intimidating. A well-designed home isn’t about perfection but being lived in, loved, and enjoyed.
