What a interior design project looks like here

Cottage Grove is a working-class 1910-1935 bungalow neighborhood that has seen rapid post-2005 townhouse replacement.

Because there's no HD, by-right development is permitted — block character varies dramatically based on 2010-2025 replacement rate.

The remaining pre-1935 bungalows sit on pier-and-beam with failing original framing.

Cabinetry, custom millwork, finishes — integrated with the construction schedule. In Cottage Grove specifically, craftsman bungalow (1910-1935) stock means interior design scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Houston scoping flow factors no historic district and pier-and-beam on pre-1935 stock into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
