Meet Julia
Prior to starting City to Suburb Interiors, I was lucky enough to learn the ins and outs of the design business from the ground up. After working with two of the foremost Interior Designers in the industry, I went on to a successful career in Construction Management. As a Project Manager, I handled all aspects of high end renovations in New York City and New Jersey. My specialties included procurement and coordinating trades (keeping your project on-time and budget), spatial planning (will all of my stuff fit/work/transition to my new space?), and design details (custom cabinetry, tile and stone layouts, sophisticated wall finishes, and bespoke window treatments.)
Using my background in Math (B.A., University of Pennsylvania) and Interior Design (A.A.S., Fashion Institute of Technology), I help my clients delve into the space and furnishing needs of their home in a uniquely creative way. From mood boards to 3D design renderings that help you envision your space, to furniture suggestions that can handle your pets/children/spouse, it’s my goal to offer design guidance and inspiration that helps you create a home which is beautiful, functional, and adds value to your life.
"Decorating an entire home from top to bottom is daunting to say the least & I had absolutely no idea where to begin. There are so many choices and decisions-even more than one would ever think! Julia came in, calmed me down, helped organize my thoughts and ideas, and ultimately helped me achieve all my Pinterest dreams!! She saw my vision, recognized my style right away, and knew exactly what to show me which made the decision process very easy for me. It’s been an absolute pleasure working on this project with her. She took an immense amount of stress off of me. She truly has an incredible eye and I look forward to future projects with her.”

My Approach
As a designer, I believe in balancing form and function. That’s why I work with trusted artisans including the region’s foremost painters, millworkers, glaziers and window specialists, plasterers and other home professionals, along with a national network of vendors and suppliers. Together, we help you source the materials and furnishings that will transform your space from a cookie-cutter look-alike into a truly personalized haven.
A former city girl myself, I specialize in city to suburbs (or home to home!) relocations and have helped dozens of families transition their current lifestyles into new abodes both large and small. Whether upsizing or downsizing, working with me you’ll get a designer’s eye, a math lover’s attention to detail, and a friend who is thrilled to help you create the home of your family’s dreams.
