About Me

     impressive number of awards to her name.  Not taking these accolades for granted, Jan

    approaches each project from a fresh perspective.  An extensive career, in excess of 30

     years of drafting and design experience, places her second to none among her peers.

    Jan places much emphasis on lifestyle requirements and needs, taking safety, function,

     family, appliances, and aesthetics into consideration.  These key elements are pulled

    together to create a unique design to suit the individual and the individual situation.

    suitable design solution encompassing wants, needs, safety, function and many other

    considerations is of paramount personal importance to me", Jan says. "Each client

    deserves to have the best solution possible within the available space. This includes the

    creation of suitable ergonomics, function, storage types, aesthetics and "wow factor" 

    which suit the wants and needs of the occupants".
