Hi, I’m Linda James, owner and principal interior designer, an avid world traveler, and a lifelong philanthropist. Since I began my journey as an interior designer over 10 years ago, I’ve strived to make people feel comfortable in their home, office, or favorite store. After working for design firms in the residential, institutional, and commercial sectors in New York City on projects all across the country, I design in order to fuse comfort and sophistication with your lifestyle, and draw from my education from New York University (BA & MA - Psychology) and SUNY - Fashion Institute of Technology (BFA - Interior Design), as well as my travel experiences.

Testimonial

Effortless Bold Package Client:

“I am a visual person that likes to see things in person. Considering my own limitations, I wondered how would you be able to provide a service without being in the actual space. It’s hard to pick one feature! Overall, the comprehensive guide you provided has been life changing...LITERALLY! I have everything I need in one document and that is extremely helpful to me. If I had to pick a more specific favorite, it would be a tie between the furniture placement (which I truly struggled with) and the furniture suggestions coupled with exactly where to purchase! I would, and have, highly recommended your services. I suffer from analysis paralysis and can easily get overwhelmed trying to make selections. I’m also super busy so I don’t have a lot of time to spend roaming stores. With my design guide, it takes the guessing out of things, I can easily make decisions that fit into the color palette and style of the room. I know exactly what I’m looking for and can hone in on items much faster. AND I can bargain shop. Some of the items listed, I was able to find in stores that carry overstocked goods, saving me a bundle. I couldn’t have made a better investment. Hiring a design professional that asked all the right questions, up front, paid off in ways far beyond the finished product. I have peace of mind, a space that I enjoy and absolutely love, and it was a seamless experience beyond what I could have imagined. I was guilty of thinking this kind of experience is out of reach. However, I’m glad I had the conversation and took the leap. This has been by far one of the best investments I’ve made in FINALLY creating a space of my own. You delivered my dream come true! I have honestly never had a space I truly loved, until now! I look forward to working with you again in the near future.”
