What’s your interior design process?
Firstly ascertain what dreams or current plans the client has. If they have none, we help to cultivate them. From there Heritage will produce both a plan and pricing. Then we execute the plan. We have our own staff to do just about everything.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
We are students of history, our people are skilled in designs from Roman and High Gothic to Modernism and Post Modernism. Even if you are after an art style that we don't normally work in, no problem, we are quick studies. Think of us as the design Swiss Army knife.
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
We use methods that have been employed since the development of film: Do as much preparatory work as you can, bring the appropriate gear, compose the scene well, and snap your photos in a variety of positions and camera configurations. Do what you can to capture the natural beauty of the subject or object. Beyond that, it is all a matter of skill.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
The above question is pretty vague, but often times so are particulars of projects. So first things we need to discuss are: Do you have a current vision of the project? Do you have a budget? Do you need help fundraising? Are you open to new ideas?
From that starting point we can grow your project to the next level.
What do you love most about your job?
Seeing, capturing, designing and manufacturing unique artifacts. I get to do some travel, I get to meet interesting people and learn about their experiences in life while perusing my carrier.
What inspired you to start your own business?
It is a honor to continue on the legacy started by my ancestors in Europe. What inspires me is how I can continue to bring all of the old world traditions and skills in to modern situations.
Why should our clients choose you?
We are a diverse company with skills and expertise in a variety of areas. From a strictly business view point, we have a large wealth of intellectual capital that we utilize to create our products and services. On the manufacturing side of our business, we can scale our services to work on a single furniture item or to mass produce large quantities of new products. Put our creativity to work for you!
