Testimonials
As a Naples Park Shore homeowner going through a complete renovation, I have appreciated the support and guidance provided by Jan. Her attention to detail and inspirational design ideas have helped me keep the project on track with a beautiful result that I am thrilled with! As a "Naples born" native, Jan has a way of infusing modern design elements with the Old Naples vibe for a truly outstanding result.

Best custom window shades ever! Jan totally ‘got’ our need for quality and subtlety. She ran interference for us when a piece of furniture came in damaged and resolved it to our satisfaction. Her design service is innovative and she completes the job beautifully from top to bottom.
— Jeanne Fabrikant
As a retailer working with Longwell Design Associates, we can say nothing but positives about them! We worked extensively with Don on the Stone Residence project. He clearly has very good knowledge of the Marvin product. Don was very thorough, detail oriented, and was accessible & helpful throughout the length of the project. They did a great job on the project!
