FR Review:
Adding joyous verge to traditional lines and expectations, Windsor Smith creates comfortable and becoming interiors. Particularly adept at understanding and accommodating the client's interests, the firm adds charm and panache "that celebrate family living." Classical sensibilities are its forte, with completed work that includes the historical renovation of an English Manor home, designing a Cape Cod estate (for actor Michael Chiklis), and furnishing a New England farm house.
Raised in Houston, Smith moved to LA in the 1990s to pursue musical theater. She soon became an antique dealer, traveling the world to find treasures. Smith segued into interior design in 1995, while continuing to run her thriving antiques and custom furniture business. With a staff of four, including an in-house architect, about eight to ten projects are taken on at a time. A good part of the work centers upon the classic old estates of Brentwood and Bel Air, with Smith involved in all aspects of the process.
Smith presents her clients with a detailed budget upfront, and takes a standard design fee, standard product commissions with no additional hourlies. Clients very much enjoy the process and applaud the result.
Representative Client Comments:
"Windsor has first class antiques that she incorporates into the designs which really makes the process and the result so special." "Such creativity, such vision-- we love every space she touched." "Windsor goes above and beyond." "Great spirit and enthusiasm." "The staff is also highly professional and hands-on." "She turned our home into a grown-up home." "Windsor stayed right on budget and on time-- way better than I expected." "Not only incredibly talented, but so much fun to be around." "We can't wait to hire her again."
