The Interior Hour
Paris or Virtual
Investment: €350
A focused, one-hour session to bring clarity and confidence to your design decisions.
Whether it’s a room, a creative space, or an upcoming gathering — together, we’ll uncover what feels true to your story and your space, leaving you with grounded clarity and inspired next steps.
Sometimes you just need space to ask your questions out loud with a trusted interior expert. Together, we’ll untangle your ideas, uncover your instincts, and bring clarity to what feels uncertain.
This is for you if you want practical guidance, focus, and reassurance without committing to a multi-step process — whether you’re styling your home, shaping the atmosphere of a gathering, or exploring how story, culture, and environment can harmoniously blend.
A focused hour to clarify your instincts and bring confidence to your next steps, without the overwhelm of figuring it out alone.
How It Works
Pre-Session Intake Form – You’ll share photos, floor plans or sketches, inspirations, and your top design questions or challenges. I review these in advance so our time together begins with focus and flow.
Focused Conversation (60 minutes) – We’ll explore your design questions in real time from color palettes, furniture, layouts, textiles, and art placement to atmosphere, storytelling, and sensory details.
This time is also a space to reflect on how your cultural influences and personal story can shape the environment you’re creating, whether at home, in a creative space, or for a gathering.
Practical & Intuitive Guidance – You’ll leave with actionable insights, reassurance in your intuition, and confidence in your next steps.
Follow-Up Notes – You’ll receive 1–2 tailored recommendations to help you move forward confidently.

What Clients Are Saying
“After moving into a new apartment, Shana thoughtfully helped us turn loose ideas and inspiration into a clear, tangible vision. Though the space had its constraints, her expert eye completely transformed how we arranged and lived in it. We walked away not only with a beautiful new layout but also with practical details like exact measurements for rugs, coffee tables, and curtains, which I’d always felt lost about. She’s completely taken any guesswork and confusion out of furnishing and decorating our home.”

Looking to go beyond a single session?
If you’re feeling ready to explore your space and your story more fully, The Guidance Package offers a deeper, more tactile experience.
Through a soulful, in-person process, we’ll explore what feels like home to you — the colors, textures, and memories — and translate them into a personalized printed guide designed to support future choices and nurture harmony while sourcing over time.
I work with you, combining practical guidance and your intuition to create spaces that feel like you, honor your heritage, nurture the emotional life of your spaces, and foster a renewed sense of belonging.
An Intuitive Approach
My approach is shaped by a Master’s in Interior Decoration and Decorative Arts from L’Institut Supérieur des Arts Appliqués (LISAA) in Paris, a program taught entirely in French and rooted in French design traditions.
This experience refined my understanding of spatial storytelling, materials, and the emotional language of interiors, shaping a practice that is both intuitive and culturally sensitive.
It also connects you to a wider world of design, giving you direct access to French stores, artisans, ateliers, and resources that might otherwise feel out of reach.
My process is intuitive-led and thoughtful, balancing practical design insight with sensory awareness and personal story.
