“Form follows function” - Louis Sullivan
With more than 35 years of experience as a degreed Interior Designer, my work is guided by discernment, proportion, and restraint. Clients engage my services not for volume or trend, but for judgment refined through decades of residential practice. Each project is approached as a long‑term investment, balancing beauty, comfort, and enduring value through a thoughtful, highly personal design process.
Scope of Services
Every residence is distinct. Services are tailored to the needs and aspirations of each client and may include:
Concept development and design direction
Space planning and scaled drawings
Specification and finish packages
Material and surface selections
Procurement guidance and sourcing strategy
Coordination with client‑selected architects, builders, and artisans
Periodic site visits during construction
Final styling and finishing touches
Engagement & Fees
Services are offered on a phased retainer basis, allowing flexibility, clarity, and measured progress.
Projects begin with a 20‑hour retainer, charged in half‑hour increments. Additional retainers are secured in the same format as the project evolves. Upon completion, a detailed statement of account is provided, and any unused time is rebated to the client.
Time is carefully documented and available to clients ensuring transparency and trust.
The Value of Experience
Depth of judgment: Anticipating challenges before they arise—refining layouts, resolving construction complexities, and selecting materials that age gracefully.
Curated access: Longstanding relationships with trusted artisans, craftspeople, and premium suppliers.
Enduring appeal: Design guided by longevity rather than trend, enhancing both daily living and long‑term value.
Quiet confidence: Professional stewardship than reduces complexity and allows clients to enjoy the process as much as the result.
A Distinctive Approach
I lead each project personally, offering direct access to my judgment, discretion, and experience. Design decisions are approached holistically—balancing aesthetics, construction knowledge, and the realities of how clients live—resulting in residences that feel elevated, effortless, and deeply considered.
