Why you love what you do? We are so lucky to meet people who share in our creativity and vision. It sounds cliché but doing what you love for a living is a blessing.

What sets you apart from the competition? We are adept at working in many different styles with proficiency, and we prioritize total transparency with our clients.

Best thing about 2021? If there was a best thing, it is that people really began to rediscover “home.”

Past trends you’d love to see return? Quality in craftsmanship has really suffered and we would love for people to rediscover artisans and their craft.

Trends on the horizon? A return to rooms with specific purposes, and the death of the great room.

Where do you draw inspiration from? Everywhere—art, nature, history, fashion, etc.

Favorite mantra? Don’t be afraid of color!

Most looking forward to in 2022? We are excited to debut our new furniture line “Worth Avenue” with Alden Parkes, and our new hardware line, Jakob & John, jakobandjohn.com.
