My Foundation

Where we begin.

We help you realize the full potential of your home without overwhelming decision making or mismatched results by guiding you through a seamless process, tailored to your taste and lifestyle. Engagement with SLATE interior design begins with a comprehensive consultation. This focused 90-minute session is designed to move the project forward with clarity and purpose. At this stage, clients receive a clear summary of observations, structured outline of project potential, and an initial proposal framework that describes scope, process, and phased investment. This ensures transparency from the very beginning, providing confidence to make informed decisions.

"Joseph is a design arbiter. His passion for sourcing unique pieces from around the world and creating an element of surprise in his rooms lends his work a global sensibility not often found."​​
- Ariane Nardo, Editor-in-Chief, SHELTER Magazine
