Our Story

A family-run Portland studio of designers, stagers, and coordinators — the people behind every project since 2015.

The Greylyn Wayne team — Portland home staging and interior design studio

Est. 2015

A Family-Run Design Studio in Portland, Oregon

Greylyn Wayne was born from founder Jody Wallace's lifelong passion for design. The name itself is personal — a combination of the middle names of Jody's three children. Established in 2015, we're a Portland-based interior design and home staging company specializing in custom design solutions that accentuate the character of every space.

We carefully curate the layout of each room, selecting furnishings and details that tell its story. From our Portland warehouse, our team serves homeowners, realtors, builders, and property managers throughout Oregon and Southwest Washington.

Our Mission

Our goal is simple: make first impressions last.

Jody Wallace — founder and head of design at Greylyn Wayne, Portland

Founder & Head of Design

Meet Jody Wallace

With a 20+ year design career spanning from the historic midwest to Portland, Jody has developed an eye for spaces that feel storied and soulful. Before moving to Portland in 2010, she lived across the country — from Southern California to Chicago — gaining inspiration from different regional design styles.

Jody leads a team known for their thoughtful approach and beautiful designs that are both inviting and inspiring. She has been the lead interior designer for four NW Natural Street of Dreams homes — in 2019, 2021, 2024, and 2025 — and her 2019 home was voted both People's and Professional's Best Interior Design.

A few years ago, Jody passed the home-staging side of the operation to her daughter and son-in-law, guiding them into their roles while remaining a strong presence as lead designer.

What Partners Say

Trusted by Portland's Top Brokers

“The GW team went above and beyond: they nailed the scheduling, took the time to understand the property and target audience, and handled everything from setup to teardown with total professionalism and style. They don't just stage homes—they deliver the WOW factor.”
Sherry Francis — Senior Broker, ELEETE Real Estate
“GW is truly a top stager in Portland. They focus down to the detail, will not leave the project until it is completely dialed. Their special planning and choice of furniture, art, decor always showcases the home's architectural style and really has helped to highlight the homes I have sold. They are awesome to work with too!”

What Drives Us

Our Values

Thoughtful Design

Every space has a story. We take the time to understand your home's character and create designs that accentuate what makes it unique.

Personal Touch

As a family-run studio, we treat every project like our own home. You'll work directly with our team — not handed off to subcontractors.

Attention to Detail

From the placement of a throw pillow to the flow of an entire floor plan, we obsess over the details that make a space feel truly considered.

Results-Driven

Whether staging to sell or designing to live, we deliver spaces that achieve your goals — homes that sell faster and interiors that inspire.

Let's Work Together

Whether you're selling, building, or creating your dream home — our team is ready to help bring your vision to life.
