What’s your interior design process?
Furniture & built-ins becomes a part of your home. For this reason, we craft our designs with high attention to detail and quality. We will work with you to make sure your design is exactly as you imagined. Many clients choose built-in furniture when they want and need more storage. By putting things away, you’ll be able to free up counter and floor space. This will also help your home feel cleaner, airier, and more inviting.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
I specialize in contemporary/transitional designs. If you look at my portfolio you can see that I specialize in a timeless look. My clients are looking for elegance, tastefulness, and beauty.
What do you love most about your job?
I have done this in all stages of my life. Once upon a time I had an architectural firm with over 30 employees. I also had my own store front selling furniture that I designed. I have taken on large projects and small projects and my favorite part is when I finish and get to see the end result.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I am fortunate to have grown up in a family of designers and architects and that has served me well and been my mantra.
Why should our clients choose you?
A successful project is one where the client can tell me what they want and from there I can extrapolate the details and understand there vision. I am a very good listener.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I can do remote consultations via zoom or a normal phone call. I am more than happy to also come to your residence for a more personal feel for the project.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I where a mask and will keep my distance. This goes for both myself and my crew. We are very flexible and will cater to all requests.
