FORT LAUDERDALE, Fl – Frances Herrera Interior Design, an award-winning and innovative New York City-based interior design firm, is expanding into South Florida, bringing its signature style of "livable luxury" to clients in the tri-county area. The firm is also adding yacht design to its portfolio of design expertise, catering to the expansive boating industry in Florida.

The firm, established in 2002, is led by founder Frances Herrera, one of the most sought-after interior designers in New York City. "Moving to South Florida was a natural progression for Frances Herrera Interior Design because, much like New York, the area is filled with creative, dynamic entrepreneurs and visionaries who collaborate on everything from art to global finance," Herrera said. "It's exciting to feed off this new energy and partner with those who enjoy the elements of comfortable luxury.

"The inclusion of yacht design into the firm was an effortless decision," she continued. "Each vessel is unique in style and composition, yet the confines are intimate, like a New York apartment. Turning these distinctive spaces into comfortable, elegant retreats is my passion."

Frances Herrera Interior Design's signatures are creating luxurious spaces that are multi-functional, incorporating the use of highly durable elements, and completing projects efficiently without sacrificing quality. It offers a spectrum of comprehensive design services, from the transformation of one area of one room to an entire home, to outdoor areas.

"Outdoor living is so much a part of South Florida living, that I view the deck, patio, pool area and veranda as significant design space that can be transformed into an extension of livable luxury," she said. "The possibilities for elegant design extend all the way to the water's edge."

The firm's popular trademarked Dayzine™, a special service for those who want to work with pieces already in their home, is a one-day makeover that instantly revitalizes a singular space. Using a client's existing furniture, coupled with new custom curated accessories, Frances Herrera Interior Design creates a completely different aesthetic, creating "affordable luxury," keeping in mind time/financial efficiency and the client's treasured mementos.

"A gorgeous, inviting design means nothing if the client cannot afford it. Prudent and effective use of time and resources means just as much to me as they do to my clients," Herrera said. "The Dayzine™ service works within a range of budgets, giving clients the look and feel they want without a large investment of time and resources."

Frances Herrera Interior Design's portfolio extends beyond the residential and personal, also featuring designs of commercial and common-use spaces, such as executive offices, condominium lobbies, club/recreational rooms, theatres and outdoor spaces.

Acclaimed for its customized and approachable designs, Frances Herrera Interior Design is based on the philosophy that personal attention and building client relationships through exceptional service is as important as innovative design. Sophisticated taste, flawless execution and the ability to understand clients' unique needs and desires are what set Frances Herrera Interior Design apart from other designers.

The firm's designs have been showcased on several segments of NBC's Open House and George to the Rescue, and LXTV's On the White Carpet. Its work has also been featured in numerous publications and blogs, including HGTV, Real Simple, Bella Magazine, New York Newsday, and The Miami Herald.
