Testimonials

“I worked with Joanna Shirin for over 10 years full-time. She was very helpful in organizing significant projects in different parts of the country for me. Her attention to detail, emphasis on high quality, and keen eye for high-end design makes her a valuable asset on any project she undertakes. She identified unique selections of materials and fabrics and had a truly creative yet practical approach to all aspects of design, layout, furnishings, and accessories. I relied on Joanna’s instincts in finding good solutions when problems arose, and managing time and budgets effectively. She was a pleasure to work with and I would not hesitate to recommend her services.”

We’ve worked with Joanna several times over the past 15 or so years and enjoy her work so much. When we first worked with her our projects were very small, and still, she took the time and gave us the same attention and care she does her larger clients. (Much larger clients!) Now, finally, we’re about to break ground on a new home and Joanna will be involved all the way through the process. We’ve looked forward to this for a long time and can’t wait to see what she does with it.

“Two years ago I inherited my parents mountain retreat and though I loved them dearly the same cannot be said for my feelings toward how they decorated and furnished their house. Last May I hired Joanna after seeing how she transformed a friend’s duplex in the city. I am thrilled that the inside of my home now seems to reflect and extend the magnificent lakefront vistas that inspired the house’s original architecture. I can’t praise Joanna’s talents enough: her ability to translate my ethereal visions into concrete executions was both fun and inspiring.”
