MEET THE DESIGNER

The designs of Jona Collins, CID, are timeless and graceful.

With an artist’s eye and the ability to transition from one style to another with ease, Jona revolves each interior around its key architectural features to compose a space that’s authentic to each home and homeowner.

A certified interior designer who has trained at Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, Jona has been beautifying homes and offices for the past decade. Her interiors, which have been featured on HGTV, are glamorous, sumptuous and statement-making, with a strong sense of classic sophistication.

Paying careful attention to every detail, Jona integrates the personal collections of her clients with fine art, antiques, contemporary pieces, and custom-designed furniture. By accentuating each space with her renowned European-influenced dressmaker flourishes, she creates a comfortable, elegant interior tailored to the specific lifestyle of each client.

Jona’s expert use of luxurious textiles stems from beginning her career as a skilled dressmaker and costume designer for some of the top performers in the music industry. From there, her boutique business branched out into her award-winning furniture designs and acclaimed interiors. Her inherent eye for intricate architectural elements, sense of color and range of design styles make her a highly sought-after designer.

In her spare time, Jona makes it a priority to not only beautify but also improve the lives of others through her philanthropic involvement. She donates her talents to causes near to her heart such as the Dining by Design event with the Design Industry Foundation Fighting AIDS (DIFFA), for which she has been recognized in California Home + Design Magazine.

Jona strives to create unique interiors that inspire. With a passion for bringing to life highly personalized living spaces that are equally eye-catching and inviting, Jona will take your vision from dream to reality.

Testimonials:

“From an interior design standpoint, Jona has brought the complete package of the decorating skills to bear on each aspect of our job. She is highly creative and has an extraordinary ability to see both the big picture and the smallest level of detail clearly. She has a great eye for color and scale and is effective at working with the items we already have but also finding new things in order to create the look we desire.”

“Over the last seven years, Jona has helped me make many decisions on most rooms in our home. Our largest project that we have undertaken with her was our kitchen remodel. At first we were only using a reface company, then realized we didn’t have anyone to assist us with the overall picture. We called Jona and she was the savior on this project.”

“Following our first consultation in our home, Jona followed through with a wide range of appropriate and beautiful choices. Within that selection of just the second visit, she captured the look of the textures, fabrics and overall “feel” of what I was imagining. Simultaneously, I must add, for several rooms throughout the house! In the undertaking of this project Jona was both efficient and creative. Truly above and beyond!”
