What We Think About...
Every room we walk into has a certain feel, a certain rhythm... whether it's immediately identifiable or not. And all the different elements of interior design and decoration - including the architecture, furnishings, finishes, accessories, and artwork - contribute to this overriding feel. It is prize subject matter for us to think about melding both functional and aesthetic aspects of each project and how we can compose these elements with their varying rhythmic tempos in order to create space around us that inspires the moods and activities we envision.
Are you going for a rhythm that feels warm or cool? Stimulating or relaxed? High or low energy? Bold or subtle? Exciting or calm? Or some varying combinations in between? Interior designer Joanne Hurd is keen on the emotional rhythms emitted by both the overall room design itself as well as its component parts. With her own line of handmade tapestries & rugs, she zooms in on her hand-knotted artwork that can personalize our spaces and render our rooms unique and distinctive.
With many diverse patterns and colorways - many of which we can customize specially for you - we think about bringing your own expressive harmony to your space. Let's talk about some of your ideas!

I have a Joanne Hurd tapestry hanging on a wall where I see it multiple times a day. I marvel at what she created for me.
