Interior Design Services
Design services can be bundled with, or independent from, the sale of your home. My design aesthetic is grounded in a deep understanding of historic architecture, appreciation of a curated, global aesthetic, Berks County real estate market dynamics, and condition of your home. We evaluate opportunities holistically to ensure each design project is aligned with your goals and objectives.

What's Included?
Physical Walkthrough
First things first. I'll meet you at your house and we will walk through the room or rooms you have in mind. An Assessment of your home and property conditions, access, zoning, and surrounding market factors to determine potential.
Design Consultation
I'll take notes during our walkthrough and we will discuss your goals. I'll help guide you through a financial and technical feasibility analysis to evaluate your costs, risks, and project viability before we move forward.
Market Research & Positioning
I'll provide a Comparative Market Analysis for you which includes a comprehensive report on local demand and competitive landscape. I'll map it to your timeline to define the right mix and budget for improvements based on the value of your neighborhood.
Planning & Coordination
Together, we will outline the definition of your objectives and strategic milestones. I will align these objectives and ultimately your design plans with your overall goals.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of design projects do you support?
I work primarily on residential interior design projects, for old, historic, and inherited properties. I do some independence “design only” projects, however most design projects are in conjunction with the eventual sale and/or purchase of residential real estate. Past projects have included design for office space, although commercial design is not my primary focus.
I'm not interested in selling my house, can you still help me with design?
Yes! I offer design consultations that are completely independent of real estate sales. Together, we will come up with an approach, timeline, and budget that works for your goals.
Do you work with private homeowners or institutional partners?
Yes, Both. I primarily collaborate with homeowners on design projects, but I am able to work with developers, landowners, and institutional capital partners who may be designing a new build and require my services. In those instances, I adapt my approach to the different project requirements.
Do you work with old homes or new homes?
Both! Of course it’s easier to give a new home character and make it look old, but it’s a lot harder to restore and preserve what has stood for generations.
I grew up watching and learning as my parens restore a century old home in Wyomissing over a period of 40 years. Personally, I have been restoring my own century old home not far from where I grew up. This expertise coupled with my keen eye for design enables me to help you identify and assess risks early and support informed decision-making throughout the design and restoration process.
