Leonard Provence Interiors

Janet is wonderful! We have now worked with her on both of houses and she brings ideas to the table that we wouldn't think of but we love. Our old house she made the kitchen a real wow factor and now our new house is even more of a wow factor which is just what we wanted. On our first project back in 2009 Janet was living in London, she then moved back the US. So during this project in our new house (2016) when the original interior designer who came with the architects wasn't quite up to what we wanted we called on Janet to help us out! We managed to get through our meetings via FaceTime and lots of emails and she really has made what could have been quite a dull space interesting and inviting. Janet listens to you as a client and manages to combine the brief with more "je ne sais que" which results in something magical! She is clever with coming up with cost effective ideas that she knows will work and don't look cheap. If we ever do this again we will call on her even with her being in the US we know it can work!

I have had the pleasure of working with Janet on two of her projects, both were complete interior remodels. She has a unique ability to visualize how a space can be used, how the clients are going to live their lives there. From making life easier to making it beautiful, she knows it is possible to live casually and still have a sense of elegance. She handled everything with both projects from the purchasing and scheduling to the complete installation process. Her experience combined with a meticulous eye for detail shows in the final design, a completely transformed beautiful space. Her professionalism, expertise in her field, customer satisfaction, ability to meet deadlines and on a budget are to name just a few reasons why I would highly recommend her to anyone who asks.

I had been interested in updating the interiors of several of the rooms in my house, but finding furniture that functioned for a family while still retaining an atmosphere for entertaining seemed an onerous task. Janet has a warm, relaxed manner. Through our initial meetings, she was able to draw out my style and creatively think about how the rooms could be best used. She sourced amazing furniture from all over the country that maximized the use of the space and delivered plenty of storage. The fabrics suggested were family-friendly yet still provided a sophisticated feel to the rooms. Janet's design provided the neutral scheme I was looking for in my rooms while injecting accent color and unusual pieces to make the overall look unique and my own. Janet has a real gift with working with color, making my neutral rooms go from nice to memorable! I'm already eyeing other rooms that can use a Janet-overhaul!
