ABOUT
Sharona Dushansky
After years in banking and finance, I returned to my first love, design and home styling. I studied interior design in London, at the Interior Design Institute in Covent Garden, and I combine European influences with the Israeli taste I grew up with.
"A well-designed home puts us at ease, just like clothes that fit us perfectly."
What clients say
Translated from Hebrew"I was very happy throughout the whole process. Sharona is very professional and available, and the flow and connection between us felt pleasant and right. The professionals she chose and recommended met the requirements, and the final result is amazing."
"Sharona designs with great generosity of spirit. She works hard to understand what the client wants and needs, helped me a great deal with decisions, and turned a plain five-room apartment into an elegant home to my taste."
