A quote from Shannon “I want you to love your space more than anywhere else and feel happy, relaxed and inspired when your project is complete.”

THE CREATIVE PROCESS

Every client has their own personal style, comfort level, budget, wish list, and unique needs. Open communication and attention to detail are the keys to unlocking and achieving the perfect balance of all these elements. We will listen to your goals and help articulate your vision to make your design dreams a reality.

We also like to keep the design process exciting and fun, and foster an environment where you feel supported throughout the entire project.

CLASSIC ROOTS, MODERN STYLE

Our designs are rooted in classic and traditional elements, paired with eclectic and vintage accents to create a timeless look. No two clients or projects are alike which allows us to tailor your experience and create a unique and custom finished product that fits your style.

When the job is finished, you’re surrounded by the things you love, in a space that was custom designed just for you.

Design Process

I’d love to hear more about your project! Please fill out the new client questionnaire available here. When I receive the form, I will contact you to schedule a complimentary 15-20 minute discovery call to learn more about your project goals.

In our initial consultation, I come to your home or business to meet in person (or Zoom if you’d like) for up to 2 hours. This is the first paid meeting before any project, or can be used simply as a way to ask questions and get ideas. Price available upon request.

What this meeting is for:

  • Discussing your project needs, vision, scope, budget, and timeline.
  • Getting ideas for how to rearrange existing furniture
  • Furniture and accessorizing ideas that you can find on your own
  • Paint color consultation up to 3 rooms (for more request pricing)
  • Ideas for small changes that will have big impact

During this meeting, you will take notes on what we discuss. When necessary, I will send follow up links or info based on something I may have suggested. If product sourcing is requested after this meeting (Referred to as “Designer on Call”) I will estimate my time and this will be an additional cost, billed at my hourly rate.

After the Design Consultation is complete and I have gathered all the info I need, I will follow up with a project proposal. This includes; a scope of work document (to be shared with all stakeholders) a floorplan, digital concept boards, a unique product list of recommended items on your wish list and a breakdown of the overall project budget you have identified in your questionnaire. I use historical information to determine how long I believe the job will take to design, therefore I will present pricing packages for my services that will be the best option for you based on your project.

When you are 100% happy with your plan, we will begin assembling your team. I will hold a trade day in your space and connect you with trusted contractors and subcontractors when applicable. I will work with the team to create a project schedule. We will begin to finalize and order your material selections and any applicable decorative items you have approved with longer lead times.

I will work side by side with contractors for the duration of your project to make sure your needs are met and every detail is accounted for. I will help troubleshoot and problem solve if anything unexpected should arise that is unforeseen and help bring your vision to life. I will continue to order decorative finishes and any furniture or accessories needed.

Upon completion and installation of the project, we will do a final walk through and create a punch list when applicable. I will style your space and take professional photos to commemorate our hard work with your approval. Now for the fun part…enjoying your new space! Nothing brings me greater joy than seeing photos of clients celebrating, living in and enjoying spaces we have created together. My hope for every project is that you love and enjoy the space for years to come!

About Shannon

Shannon Figaro is the Founder and Principal Designer of Fig Interiors, LLC. Her mission is to enhance the lives of her clients by maximizing the potential of their space and working collaboratively to create harmonious environments for them.

Shannon’s experience began in the commercial design world, having worked for the Ralph Lauren Corporation as a Decorative Manager, where she opened new retail stores worldwide. She translated that experience into residential projects more than 10 years ago, after she and her husband started their family and purchased their own home. She experienced the design challenges many homeowners face and decided to use her knowledge to bridge the gap from concept to reality.

“When I complete a project, clients often feel like family. My favorite thing about my job is, helping clients improve the quality of life in their space and helping to make their vision a reality. It fills me up to see photos of families living in and enjoying their spaces exactly how we planned.”

When she is not busy creating beautiful things for Fig Interiors, you can find her hanging with her husband and two daughters, at the gym or walking the family goldendoodle.

Shannon would love to hear about your next project! Call 608.630.5373 or email shannon@fig-interiors.com to schedule a free discovery call.

What my clients love most

“My husband and I hired Shannon to give our first floor a makeover. She worked on our kitchen, living room and sun room. We gave her a few ideas and she created a beautiful palette of colors, rugs, furniture and window treatments. The best part is she was able to bridge the gap of tastes between my husband and I. This is no small feat!!

We also wanted to finish our basement. Shannon was not only our interior designer, she was our project manager, working side by side with our contractor. She designed our floor plan and guided us through the many choices of flooring, cabinetry, countertops and lighting, finding us a variety of options within our budget.

Shannon did a great job for us. I feel like I am living in a new home and it is my sanctuary. I love having coffee in the morning in my new living room that Shannon created for us!”

“I have worked with Shannon Figaro on 2 house project/remodels in the past 3 years and both experiences were great from beginning to end. Shannon’s vision for the finished design was exactly what I was looking for!

She helped me determine the overall look and then pull the details together to complete it. Shannon is extremely talented in design but also very practical in terms of budget, timeline and details. That combination is hard to find and so valuable! I highly recommend Shannon and Fig Interiors for your project and she will be my first call when my next project comes up.”

“Shannon’s creativity and energy is simply unmatched. Within days of our first meeting, she had ideas that transformed a little-used room in my house into a beautiful and inviting room in which my family now shares special memories. Since then, Shannon has transformed my kitchen, dining area, and office space by making every inch functional space.

From the littlest details, such as picture placement and wall colors, to ensuring an overall flow of several rooms, Shannon has an eye for detail and planning that is incredible. Without question, she has made my house into a home, and I recommend her without hesitation.”

“Shannon is an extremely personable and warm presence to work with! We appreciate her eye for beauty, her balanced approach while integrating her suggestions with our ideas, and her efficiency and attentiveness. On our recent kitchen project, her contacts and referrals were spot on for bringing our update to completion in a relatively short timeframe.

We would work with her again in a heartbeat at home, or business, and would (already have!) recommend her any day of the week!”

“I recently renovated my home and was overwhelmed with the usual — paint colors, fabrics, and positioning of key pieces. Shannon stepped in and made the entire process stress free and, more importantly, fun!

She did the legwork and brought beautiful choices to the project while being respectful to my overall taste and budget. She was an absolute godsend.”

“Shannon will leave you inspired, invigorated and absolutely amazed. She has exquisite taste and she had a marvelous way of making my vision come alive, which I get to enjoy every day. Shannon can help you accomplish what you creatively desire.

Her talents are complimented by her poise, grace and absolute professionalism.”
