L.K. DeFrances & Assoc., Inc.

L.K. DeFrances & Associates, Inc. is an award-winning interior design firm specializing in residential and commercial design. Owner, Lisa DeFrances draws on over 20 years experience in both residential and commercial projects to create interiors that are reflective of each client’s lifestyle, desires and dreams.

CLIENT-INSPIRED INTERIORS

“Our clients are our best inspiration,” says Lisa, “Every client has specific needs and desires when envisioning the ideal design for their home. Different lifestyles demand different environments. The key to our success is understanding that a concept that works well for one client may not work well for another. What one client considers peaceful, another may consider ‘too minimal’.”

L.K. DeFrances & Associates considers each client’s individual tastes and needs to create successfully decorated spaces that are comfortable, tasteful, personal and unique. With each progressive project, they carry forward ideas gleaned from previous projects and evolve them, in conjunction with the unique specifications of each new client. With this information, and through the employment of proper scale, proportion, intriguing materials and innovative applications, they are able to bring to life their clients’ dreams.

PROFESSIONAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT

L.K. DeFrances & Associates, Inc. professionally handles all phases of a project. Providing careful attention to detail and unparalleled service, the LKD team of experts oversees every aspect of each interior creation including concept design, furniture selection and placement, budgeting, hardscapes and installation.

DeFrances & Associates provides design solutions that are appropriate to the budget while embracing the design goals of the business or homeowner.
