Get to Know Us

Brett Clark

is an award-winning Interior Designer and a Columbia College Chicago alumnus with a BFA in Interior Architecture. After graduating, Brett sought out opportunities in many areas of the industry, including residential and commercial design, custom furniture-making and Kitchen & Bath design. These experiences gave him the expertise to approach design projects of any scope and scale.

Originally from St. Louis, Brett returned to collaborate with architects, contractors and tradesmen on residential projects such as historic renovations, remodels, custom home construction, and commercial projects like restaurant build outs and luxury apartment building design. With his professional background, Brett removes the fear that can accompany such ambitious projects and make the process smoother for his clients.

Connect

Introductions, Ideas, & Scope of Work

Let’s connect! First, we get to know each other, the project, your needs, and goals. We define the scope of work, discuss ideas, and outline the next steps for your project. We work to create a fun and collaborative process where your ideas can be explored, refined, and elevated based on your personal tastes.

Create

Conceptualize, Compose, & Review

Now concepts come into focus by composing a detailed plan of action to transform your interior. Floor plans, modeling and renderings are produced, while finishes, fabrics, furniture, and fixtures are specified. With design presentations throughout this process, we work closely with you to determine every detail.

Coordinate

Your design team conducts regular site-visits and is in constant communication with all necessary team members to ensure efficiency and that timelines are being met.
