From an early age, Greg was drawn to architecture and interiors..
With a commitment to excellence and a broad understanding of styles, he is available to assist you in discovering your own personal design vision.
Greg has design experience spanning over 25 years (more like 30 now, since 1991) including 5 star hotel interior design, luxury senior living, retail design, residential interiors and new build house design and space planning.
How did you get into it?
As early as 7 years old I started to draw floor plans of my parents’ house and the houses of my friends. I’ve always had an intuitive strength in understanding spaces three-dimensionally.
I was constantly looking at my surroundings and absorbing the historic design and planned solutions of spaces that I encountered. I started to build miniature houses and decorate them. As I grew older, I started to visit and study historically important houses and buildings and absorbed the architecture involved.
After 3 years in college working towards a painting and fine arts degree, a teacher pulled me aside and suggested that I interview the head of the interior design program. Since then, my teeth were sunk in deep.
How long have you been working in interior design?
I graduated in 1991 and immediately started work with Rich’s department stores deigning new store builds and renovations of existing dated stores. From Corporate Store Planning of Rich’s, I went to Culpepper McAuliffe and Meaders to design 4 and 5 star hotels.
I designed significant Country Clubs like the TPC Saw Grass Club house, the Biltmore Golf Course Club house and the Presidential Golf Course Club House.
With so many high-end quality projects under my belt, I bring a lot of finessed skill and personal attention to the residential client as they create their own home.
What do you love about it?
I enjoy understanding people; their likes and dislikes, their needs, their life styles and their visions.
My favorite part is the building time, when the contractor has demolished old walls and has started to frame out the walls and new spaces. No new dry wall is up yet and it is in a rough state. It is so exciting to see what was once only ‘lines on paper” begin to take shape in a three-dimensional way.
