The Designer
Charmaine Manley specializes in designing classic residential and commercial interiors; creating aesthetically pleasing spaces while keeping the client's budget, personal needs and individual style in mind.
Background experience in art, antiques, design and creative re-use lead to innovative planning and functional solutions to design dilemmas inevitably found in both new construction and remodels.
A commitment to sustainability and the well being of her clients keeps this designer searching for healthy, locally sourced materials to incorporate into the overall design plan.

"I believe design has the power to change how we view our surroundings, thereby changing our lives. My design philosophy focuses on finding ways to implement beautiful design - no matter the budget. I believe strongly in salvaging and reusing items whenever possible."
