For more than 25 years, Tracy Motley has built a reputation in Houston as an interior designer known for creating timeless, livable spaces infused with sophistication. Rooted in her French heritage, Tracy has long drawn inspiration from the elegance, craftsmanship, and romance of French design.

Opening a French antiques and furnishings store has been a lifelong dream, and the perfect opportunity revealed itself during a recent visit to her beloved Round Top, Texas. There, she discovered a storied, registered historical home in the heart of downtown—a house with charm, history, and soul. It felt like destiny, a place meant to bring her vision to life.

Set to open in Fall 2025, French House Co. will celebrate the art of French and European living, offering antiques, curated furnishings, and unique finds sourced with an eye for beauty and authenticity. Tracy looks forward to welcoming guests into this historical treasure and sharing her passion for design, heritage, and the hunt for extraordinary pieces that make a house feel like home.
