The Assert Your Style design approach with Sharon Bottner, Interior Design Specialist, is the fusion of fantasy and reality. Bring your fantasy design concepts and see them become a reality within your budget and lifestyle.

Step 1:  Understanding the client’s lifestyle, style preferences and risk-tolerance Asking the right questions and listening to the answers—both verbal and non-verbal—helps Sharon to determine how the space or home will be utilized. In addition, Sharon gleans information about daily habits, traffic patterns, style and color preferences, as well as ones’ inclination to the latest trends, before deciding upon the design mix. If she is working with a couple, she is careful to interview both, separately, to determine any additional requirements of the design concept.

Step 2:  Project Assessment Having gathered the pertinent information, Sharon assesses the entire project in light of the client’s personality and style, whether new construction, room makeover or renovation.  She recommends functional yet creative design solutions, in the form of color, texture, fabrics, lighting, flooring, among others, to bring the greatest comfort and satisfaction to the client. The plan is comprehensive and detailed so that there are no surprises.

Step 3:  Design Coach and Manager Guided by a gentle hand through the process, the client is able to make stress-free decisions with the confidence that Sharon is working at every turn toward a mutually agreed upon, clearly defined goal and budget. Panache Interior Design works with a masterful team skilled in upholstery, faux painting, custom cabinetry, and window décor. Sharon maintains relationships with vendors and merchants for preferred service in cabinetry, lighting, furniture, flooring, and more.

Step 4:  Your Inner Panache Awaits The resulting renovation, construction project or simple room makeover is a fusion of creativity and function. For Sharon, interior design is all about the client relationship. “It is the process of showcasing the client’s style within the space with some guidance from me that makes the job very rewarding,” says Sharon.
