Designer's Philosophy

“An interior is the natural projection of the soul.” -Coco Chanel Haute Couture Fashion Icon

Willow Designs, Inc. is a full service Interior Design firm addressing the needs of residential and small business customers. We work with clients in a collaborative approach that delivers a customized design reflecting the client’s personality and interests. We come to a project with a fresh and informed eye that, together with client input, establishes the foundation of the design strategy.

“Stay, stay at home, my heart and rest; Home-keeping hearts are happiest.” -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Poet, Educator

Defining home, as sanctuary from the world, is a common requirement. Willow Designs understands that the way in which this goal is achieved varies from project to project. Each client’s unique requirements must be taken into consideration. Color, lighting, window treatments and furnishings, in the correct proportions, are the main elements that develop and define the space. The resulting style should create a sense of calm, comfort and completeness without requiring any standard design labels.

Versatility is a key element in today’s Interior Design projects. Rooms are often called upon to serve many uses. This requires that functionality be a key consideration in the design approach. How each room ‘feels’ and functions is often a family affair. WILLOW DESIGNS, INC. considers how each room will be used by the family when implementing a design direction.

Interior Design is about the right color, the correct proportions combined with well-chosen and placed elements. It is not about strictly following a defined ‘look’ or style. There is no need to be tied to conventions. WILLOW DESIGNS, INC. works with clients to discover preferences and unleash the client’s courage to explore new directions. Our services are not restricted to “finishes.” We help clients to understand the order in which contractor services are provided.

Lighting plans should be developed before the electrician is called and long before the fixtures are chosen. WILLOW DESIGNS, INC. will work with you to understand how the anticipated use of the space defines the unique way that the area should be lit.

We’ll work with contractors to ensure that the details of the design direction are being carried out.

Our goal is that you experience the pure joy of a completed well-designed space!
