Irene Napolitano Interior Designs is a full service Interior Design firm and has been recommended by your Bergen County neighbors for over 20 years and counting. My brief online portfolio should serve to give you a glimpse of my design capabilities, but if you would like to see more than I can post on this site, please feel free to contact me for more.
My passion is in creating custom floor plans and elevations for the cozy cottage to the elegant estate. My interior designs combine architectural wood working, lighting, furnishings, and colors to create an environment for you that reflects YOUR personality. If you are a client seeking style, function with the element of the unexpected, call me just as so many of your neighbors have over the years.
Before I began my own Interior Design Firm, I honed my craft during a 20 year career in the Interior Design Department at Huffman Koos, an upscale retailer of fine furniture and furnishings. Rising to the position of Chief Designer, I developed a broad range of expertise in both residential and commercial projects.
My success has been fueled by a steady stream of satisfied customers. In fact, almost all of my record growth since 2005 has been stricktly word-of-mouth referrals.
"Dear Irene, Thank you so much for your help in making my home comfortable and complete. Even before you created the plan to redesign my space and incorporate new pieces, you did some maneuvering of what was already in place, and instantly, there was a different and cozier feel. You walked in and knew right away what would work and how it would all pull together. You clearly had an innate sense of my preferred style as my house totally looks like "me" now! I love to entertain and it makes me so happy when my friends and family comment on how comfortable and warm my home is....thanks in great part to your contribution! With gratitude, ~ Joan"
"As a home builder/developer I have utilized Irene's services for over twelve years, beginning with conceptual sketches, material selections, and thru to final completion. Our homes ranged from 8,000 to 12,000 square feet and typically featured, brick and stone exteriors, coordinated custom driveway pavers and walk-ways. The interiors, with attention to details, from the stone selection of the entry foyer, to the cabinetry and counter tops, lighting, accessories, mouldings, and final paint/wall finishes, gave the finished product a cut above our competition and yes all of the above tasks were made simple because Irene was on our team, and understood budget goals and timely completions. It has always been a pleasure working with Irene and look forward to working with her again on our next project.." ~ Matthew J. Trovato C.T.Development Corp. Cliff Park Development LLC.
"Having utilized Irene's services many times over a number of years, I can attest to her prowess as an Interior Designer. Her proactive approach affords me a comfort level, in that she anticipates outcomes and makes suggestions to improve the result and/or preclude costly revisions. She is there to guide you. As a home builder, I appreciate her helping me transcend brick and mortar construction by utilizing style, color, function and design. Irene thinks in such an inclusive way that everything matters. Her brilliant recommendations often include utilizing inventive and appropriately scaled moulding, her strong suit, really. What a difference! Her style is both classic and fashion forward. Safe is fine and neutral is safe. Irene's inspiration is evident, though, in that space is transformed through her interpretation. She helps clients hear their own voice and envision clearly so as to generate a reality that elicits a smile from all." ~ Kathy Rosenthal Food Sourcing Coordinator Community FoodBank of New Jersey
"Irene came highly recommended to us and seemed a good fit when we interviewed her. She has been such a gem to work with. Having undertaken the project of renovating our shore house, we relied upon her because she LISTENED to what we had to say. And she is such a creative and fun person to toss around ideas with. She makes the project fun and helps to guide us through every step. Even though the project seemed overwhelming, she helped to manage everything easily because she did her homework. When she presented designs or products to us it made decisions simple. What a relief off our shoulders! She always and in every way looks out for our best interests. We are so appreciative - - the finished product could not be more wonderful! Kudos, Irene!" ~ Joan Brickman, Oradel NJ
