About Zeenat

headshot_2.jpg

I'm an interior decorator based in the Bay Area. I've had the pleasure of working with some wonderful people, on some wonderful projects - Stephanie Marsh at Marsh & Clark Design, The San Francisco Arts & Antiques Show, Ascent Apartments, The Pierce & Maker's Market. I believe in working closely with clients to understand your personal style, your lifestyle, your needs, wants and budget, and crafting a home that best represents your tastes. Everyone deserves to feel proud of their living space & I’m honored to be a part of the process!

Personally speaking, I love beautiful things. I'm fascinated by the story behind a piece of art or how something was designed.  I'm inspired by design that borrows from the past and brings it into the present, with a fresh take on it.  A mix of classic and modern aesthetics. 

Here, I intend to share with you design discoveries & ideas to live beautifully and imbue style into the everyday. And keep you updated on projects I'm working on.

Prior to this, I launched Flint People, a resource for creative entrepreneurs, where I interviewed 15 creatives & business owners, including the founders of Three Twins Ice Cream & IAmElemental.  Prior to that, I was a Product Manager at Microsoft,  designing & shipping products for Microsoft Office (Excel was my first & remains my favorite!)

 

An Art & Design Awakening

On a recent trip to France, I was very inspired by the way people lead their lives. They brought a personal creativity & flair to everything they did, and it was a joy to witness.

In Paris, I was inspired by the design, packaging and presentation of things. Whether a perfume or a macron, things were exquisitely presented. The color palettes fresh, the window displays told a story.

Provence was a revelation. I got introduced to nature in a whole new way in the south of France.  We saw every shade of green imaginable as we walked through the countryside, and just like that, we’d stumble upon a patch of lavender. Cypress trees touched the sky. Natural fragrances filled the air. Lavender, rose, verbena were a part of people's daily lives. I was fascinated with the aesthetics and the ability to make every day beautiful.

I met some wonderful people & took A LOT of notes!  It was a hugely inspiring trip for me. And opened my eyes to the joys of living beautifully & imbuing style into the everyday.
