She uses a mix of modern and traditional with a strong emphasis on clean lines. "I love to hunt for unique furniture and artisans for items for your project. Taking on a new construction or remodeling project can be overwhelming. I am here to help you reach the finish line with results that will fill you with pride. I approach each interior design project using processes to keep you organized, informed and stress free. I use the design techniques of harmony, value balance and composition to turn your home into a masterpiece. Harmony is congruity and agreement of elements, and each home needs a different formula to achieve that state. We’ll work to eliminate the causes of disagreement, then add the pieces that take your home to the next level. Value can mean many things, but I think of it like an artist. While colors are important, the degree of lightness or darkness in your space is paramount to a successful project. If a space is “dead”, you have a value problem - I can help you fix it. Balance is one of the greatest ways to create a peaceful home. Most of us are looking for equilibrium. If you want a home that feels restful, adjusting the visual weight of the room is one way to achieve this. If you love drama, I also know how to create an exciting asymmetrical design that stills feels grounded. The choice is up to you. Composition is where the project comes together. It is the structure to the madness. If the large items are taken care of, there will be no need to over-decorate with accessories. You will have a unified whole." With years of experience running a to-the-trade showroom, Elise has a vast in-depth knowledge of American manufacturers and their processes. She knows who is making quality furniture, and how to provide her clients with the best product lines available at a range of price points.
