“Working with a new client is a process of discovery
for both the client and myself.
Understanding my clients as people with dreams,
joys and preferences helps to build the trust that is so important in realizing our shared vision.”

- Ellen Winkler, ASID, NCIDQ,
Owner and Principal Designer of Ellen’s Interiors, Inc. 
Understanding our client’s unique vision, objectives and lifestyle and expressing them through fine interior design has been a keystone to Ellen’s Interiors 35 year success and reputation for excellence.  Conversations with our clients reveal a desire to balance form and function in the home. We respond by specifying infusions of color, combined with rich texture and pattern to create a nourishing backdrop.  We create versatility through space planning, suggest lighting to address task, ambient and display purposes, while thoughtfully specifying finishes appropriate to scale and lifestyle, which  have a combined effect of creating efficient, purposeful spaces.

Our portfolio represents a range of high quality residential interior design work, always rich in detail, thoughtful and timeless in appeal, with a touch of unexpected whimsy to delight.  Integral to our work is a respect for environmental, historical and architectural context.  We create fully integrated living spaces that make the best use of natural light, environmental focal points and architectural features to maximize all aspects of the home.

We are a truly full service interior design firm, offering space planning, kitchen and bath design, lighting design, finish selection and coordination, furnishings specification and fabrication, project management and turn-key installations.  It is our practice to build and maintain strong relationships with reputable industry vendors, including talented artisans and craftspeople who take the utmost pride in their work.  Whatever the scope of the project, we enjoy working in a cooperative and collaborative spirit with the home owner, architect and builder in creating an environment that is beautifully, uniquely and perfectly suited to our client’s vision and lifestyle!
