GET TO KNOW THE OWNERS
COURTNEY AND BEN BANNER
Courtney has been in love with the home industry for her entire life. Growing up with a General Contractor for a father, she was able to have a front row view of what goes into building a home. After obtaining her Interior Design degree and working in the field extensively, she went after her dream and started her own company.
“As an interior designer, it is my goal to create homes that will influence my clients' lives for the better. I believe that our surroundings play a crucial role in our mental strength, so I never consider my job done until I see the light in my client's eyes that only comes through having a complete love of their surroundings. Through 9+ years of experience, I have gained critical industry, design detail, and computer skills; all of which provide me with the ability to do my work the right way.” - COURTNEY
Ben is the brains behind the business's function. His business degree gives him the knowledge and capability of pushing the business forward and serving clients to the fullest.
“I do the non-creative side of the business’ work. Meaning, the boring work that no normal person would ever want to do. I’m truly the YIN to Courtney’s creative YANG” - BEN
Hand in hand these two work diligently to create a bond between home owner and home that will last a lifetime.
OUR MISSION
“If you invest in beauty it will stay with you all the days of your life,” Frank Lloyd Wright
Our mission is to enhance your quality of life through interior design. We understand that the look and feel of your home and workplace can affect your behavior, attitude and sense of well-being. We take the time to truly listen to your needs, to fully understand your lifestyle, and to intuitively tap into your vision. We help you create a space that is comfortable and chic, appealing and pleasing, organized and calming.
Our mission is to provide exceptional customer service. We strive to make you feel special, acknowledged and appreciated. We pride ourselves on being trustworthy, professional and ethical while developing strong relationships with you. Not only will we exceed your expectations in terms of design, we will also exceed your expectations in terms of service.
We are a team that is eager to collaborate and communicate. In interior design, good communication is essential. We are committed to communicating effectively in order to properly listen to our client’s needs and design accordingly. Our team works collaboratively on every project - we like to work closely with builders, architects, and other tradespeople to execute the final product. We know that our job is done better when we rely on and incorporate the knowledge and support of the people that we work and solve problems with.
Our commitment to effective and streamlined communication is also helpful for project management. Although the home building process can be complicated and stressful, we work hard to make it as smooth and stress free as possible. We want to give our clients the utmost attention and care, so we are incredibly thoughtful about our time commitments. We know that the quality of work suffers when too many projects are being handled at the same time, and we never compromise quality.
Although we are highly skilled, we are always eager to learn. We continue to educate ourselves on best practices, new technologies, and learn from our experiences and the people we work with. We also keep in mind a long-term design perspective and value the history of design. We love our work and try to make the process fun and enjoyable. We aim to work from a place of kindness and humility and we never take ourselves too seriously. Above all, we want to create timeless, high-quality designs.
