Rocco Marianni Interior Design, LLC
About
I have over 40 years of experience as an Interior Designer and I still get excited about every new project. My passion for creating beautiful and functional spaces is still a key to my clients satisfaction and return for additional work.
The majority of my new clients come from referrals from existing clients. Old clients comming back for additional work account for about 75% of my projects. It is always a thrill when an old client calls for a new project. It is very affirimg and satisfying.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I meet the new client at their home to see the space and to gather a lot of important information about the client's wishes, goals and dreams for the space. We will discuss alternative ideas and solutions. That information will help me plan the environment specifically for that particular client. I'll measure the space and take photos.
Back at my office I'll draft a scale drawing of the existing space. Then I'll draw alternative changes to the space if needed and draw alternative arrangments for furniture, kitchen plan, or whatever the project calls for.
At a second meeting with the client we review the drawings and all the potential changes and improvements. As a team the client and I together determine the best solutions for the client and the space and the best way to get them accomplished.
If the client wishes I can manage the project from beginning to end and make their dreams come true. If the project involves contractors or only new furniture, etc. I can get the project accomplished with precision and expertise which comes only with many years of experience.
