My Story
Where my story meets yours. The spaces we shape carry our stories. Here’s a glimpse into mine.
I design spaces that reflect who you are, where you come from, and who you’re becoming.
My work is guided by story, heritage, and a belief that when beauty is rooted in meaning, it restores a sense of belonging.
I’m Shana Weisberg, an interior decorator based in Paris. I grew up in the U.S. between cultures, the daughter of a Vietnamese mother and a Jewish American father. This layered identity shapes how I see and feel the world, and deeply informs how I approach interiors with cultural sensitivity, curiosity, and care.
Before interiors became my focus, I studied civil engineering and spent years in the corporate world leading global design projects, consulting in innovation labs, and helping teams navigate complex systems across continents. While I valued that work, a different calling stirred in me - a desire for a slower, more soulful career.
In 2019, life shifted in a profound way. I married the French man I met on a spontaneous vacation in London two years earlier. Weeks after our wedding, we moved from Dublin to Paris. That move marked a moment of choosing to reshape my life and work from the inside out. I enrolled in a Master’s program in Interior Decoration at L’Institut Supérieur des Arts Appliqués (LISAA) in Paris, taught entirely in French. The program refined my ability to express ideas with intention - often through texture, material, and form - even before I had fluency in the language.
Through my work, I’ve come to understand that home is not just a place, but something you carry within you - a sense of belonging that lives beyond geography. My own story, with its blend of cultures and places, taught me this deeply.
My offerings meet you where you are, whether you’re looking for a focused hour to clarify your instincts or a deeper exploration of your story.
How I Can Support You
I work with clients to reconnect with their design intuition and translate it into spaces that are personal, grounded, and culturally resonant. My guidance helps you navigate the emotional, cultural, and spatial layers of your environment, whether you’re:
Moving into a home, studio, or creative space
Refreshing an existing interior
Shaping the atmosphere of a gathering
Blending multiple cultures in one place
My process is intuitive-led and thoughtful, combining practical guidance with your instincts. Together, we create interiors that honor personal story, cultural heritage, and the emotional life of a space.
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.
