About Us
Our Approach to Interior Design
The process of designing your space starts with communication. In our initial meeting, we review your style preferences, lifestyle, and consider the function of the space. Once you have chosen JLC Designs as your interior design company, we create a proposal to fit your budget. Space planning, color choices, furnishings, window treatments, lighting, and accent pieces are selected with you in mind. From the initial concept to the final product, we include you in the decision-making process. We communicate and partner with you to create a space that meets your needs. Whether your style is earthy, modern, minimalistic, or eclectic, we work with you to produce a cohesive look. The goal of interior design is to create a space that looks as well as it functions.
Home Staging
Listing your home for sale can be a big undertaking. From selecting the right agent to inviting potential buyers into your home, the process of making your home perfect can be overwhelming.
Home Staging Services help to take your home and make it ready for a new start. As our house becomes our home, our eyes become blind to little imperfections. Home Staging Experts are trained to spot those imperfections and work to minimize them while playing up the positives. Professional Home Staging begins with a walk-through and detailed assessment of your home. We take note of what needs to be done to prepare your home for sale.
Our services include decluttering, depersonalizing, improving flow, editing decor and furnishings, and suggesting improvements that will increase your profit. At JLC Designs, our home sale prep and owner occupied staging packages are reasonable and customizable. Our goal is to implement reasonable changes that make a big impact.
The Backstory
Coming from a family of artists, I have always had a clear vision of myself as an interior designer. After high school, I was accepted into Drexel University to pursue my design dreams. The universe, however, had a different plan. After the birth of my first child (and his extended stay in the intensive care unit), I was inspired to become a neonatal nurse. I followed my heart, knowing that one day it would lead me back to design.
My passion for design persisted. I renovated rooms, painted murals, and advised family and friends in all things interior design. I welcomed the challenge of flipping rooms in homes, stripping wallpaper, refacing cabinets, and adding fresh coats of paint to walls. After 15 years as a neonatal nurse, I decided it was finally time to pursue my passion. I completed classes and certifications in art, interior design, and home staging.
Today, I use the skills I have learned as a nurse to be a stronger designer. I use my critical thinking skills to visualize spaces, solve problems, and improve functionality. I use my experiences with caring and compassion to understand my clients dreams and desires. I take inspiration from nature, travel, and the world around me to create calm and inspiring spaces. I hope to help my clients conceptualize their dream space and make it reality.
