In Business Since: 1980
For 20 years Suzanne Cholko has worked with homeowners in the area of the San Francisco Bay peninsula, helping them achieve their dreams of home design. Since 1991 Suzanne has participated in showcasing homes for the San Jose Symphony and the American Cancer Society. Her work has been chosen as one of the 50 Design Liaisons of Idea House in San Francisco,CA.
In addition, Suzanne’s approachability—and the results it brings with it—has led to repeat business with many clients. But that isn't all. Suzanne brings twenty-plus years of design experience and a background in art to her clients’ projects, helping them to enrich and enhance not only their living environments, but their lifestyles as well.
In addition, her talent for brightening spaces, “bringing the outdoors inside,” is a hallmark of her work. Suzanne works on projects of all sizes, from individual upholstery or window treatments to the coordination of furnishings and finishes for an entire home. Past projects have included showcase houses for the American Cancer Society and the San Jose Symphony. Her work has been published in newspapers and magazines both locally and nationally. An initial design meeting is complimentary, and the fee structure will be determined by the scope of the project.
