Owner. Interior Designer.
Donna Brunetti
From paint consultation to new construction, I handle every aspect of interior design. I believe interior design advice should be available to everyone and that no project is too small. I’ve been an independent designer since 1978 with projects that have ranged from estates in Pebble Beach to small apartments in San Francisco and just about everything in between. I work throughout the western states, with clients in California, Nevada, Oregon, Arizona and Hawaii. Throughout the past 30+ years, I’ve traveled to both national and international tradeshows to keep current with new products and have maintained lasting relationships with numerous industry manufacturers.
Prior to studying Interior Design, I received my Associate’s degree in Biological Sciences and my Baccalaureate of Science in Environmental Studies. I then spent five years in the mid 70s, working for the U.S. Forestry in rural Northern California. This deepened my appreciation and regard for the environment and it’s influenced my design work ever since. As a result, sustainability is always the foundation of every project. In 1985, I moved to the Monterey Bay area and today enjoy the blend of both metropolitan and coastal lifestyles.
At the forefront of each project is the concept of product longevity and timeless design. After raising two boys, I tend to not only look at design through an artistic eye, but from a practical standpoint as well.
I approach each new project with a “can-do” perspective, incorporating the ideals of “form follows function.” I start each interview with “How can I help you?” And it all flows from there. Attention to detail is of utmost importance, as are both budget and timelines. I know that the most efficient and harmonious project environment is one where everyone communicates and works together as a team including the owner, contractor, architect, and all subcontractors as well as myself.
My design philosophy is to turn each client’s vision into a reality. One of the most satisfying moments for me as a design professional is when I see that vision come together and have the opportunity to share with my clients that joyful feeling of a job well done.
Why Hire A Designer?
“Designers address psychological as well as aesthetic issues, understanding human behavior and needs regarding the way a space is experienced by the occupants and how it functions. All aspects of a building interact with each other, and decisions made in the beginning can determine the success of the completed venture. Bringing an interior designer into your team early in the design process can add value to your project even before final architectural drawings are completed or construction begins.”
