Suzanne believes a home should enhance who you are and how you live. She is always guided by the spirit of the home and the people who inhabit it. Through collaboration with her clients, she creates homes that reflect individual lifestyles, personalities, and aesthetic sensibilities, shaped not only by the people who live there, but by the architecture, location, and natural setting of the home itself. These elements become integral to the design, informing the palette, materials, proportions, and overall character of each space. She thoughtfully combines classic and modern elements to create spaces that feel sophisticated, inviting, and subtly unexpected.

Her approach is instinctive but never accidental. Her designs are sophisticated yet always comfortable embracing a touch of whimsy when the moment calls for it. Suzanne has a particular affinity for beautifully made objects, old-world craftsmanship, and the unexpected details that give a space its soul. She has spent decades cultivating relationships with exceptional artisans and craftspeople, sourcing distinctive, sometimes one-of-a-kind pieces from near and far.

Suzanne’s life has been shaped not only by the places she has called home but also by her careers and the destinations to which she has ventured. Her path to design was anything but conventional. She spent her early years at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., immersing herself in the extraordinary collections. She went on to spend over a decade as an environmental attorney with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, before founding her design firm nearly two decades ago. A passionate traveler, adventurer, and avid athlete, Suzanne finds endless inspiration in the grandeur of the natural world. Her travels have taken her through the world, each place adding new layers to her perspective and informing her distinctive eye. A lifelong curiosity about art, history, nature, and psychology informs and deepens her approach to design. Beyond her work and travels, Suzanne enjoys time spent with her husband, family, and beloved dog, Meeko.
