Founded by Floyd and Julia Albee in 2019, Prevalent Projects is a full service Interior Design studio located in Mill Valley, California. We believe in creating elevated functional spaces through the use of sustainably sourced, non-toxic, high quality pieces. Our goal is to create spaces you want to be in, always. Our projects range in scale from full house remodel/additions to furniture selections for a room or two.

At Prevalent Projects, we strive to make the process of interior design fun, easy and inspiring for our clients. We focus on collaborating closely with each client to ensure our full understanding of their aesthetic preferences and needs for their space. Our clients receive artful and vivid illustrations depicting their spaces before committing to any purchases, as we choose to stay transparent through this process before anything arrives.

We are a husband wife team who relocated to Marin County after living in Los Angeles for decades. Floyd worked in LA in the film business as a Production Designer designing film sets. Julia worked for years as a Photographer. After moving to Marin it became abundantly clear that there was a real dearth of design offerings so we decided to open a retail furniture store/Interior Design business. The transition has been relatively seamless given the similarities between designing sets and designing interiors. 

Floyd trained as an Architect studying at SCI-ARC in Southern California. After college he went to work at Frank Gherys office working on the Disney Concert Hall. He met a film Director around that time who hired him to design/build a remodel addition on his house in Venice. The Director introduced him to the idea of Production Design and was instrumental in getting him hired on the western film Tombstone. He spent the next twenty plus years designing sets for many Academy Award winning Directors, Producers and Cinematographers. They sold the home he designed in LA and moved to Mill Valley in 2018. They have two boys ages 12 and 14.

**★★★★★ — Christin Klein, Feb. 2021**

> My husband and I stumbled into Prevalent Project's retail location in Mill Valley by happenstance days after putting an offer on a new home. Walking into the store, we felt right at home amongst an aesthetic we loved but had never seen curated in the way Julia and Floyd have so thoughtfully done. We were delighted to see brands we recognized and in awe of the treasure trove of new brands we discovered despite a deep admiration for Scandinavian design. As we made our way through the store, we had the privilege of meeting Julia who curates all of the furniture and decor and Floyd who leads the design work. Upon meeting them both, we knew we had met our design spirit animals.
>
> Days after first stumbling into Prevalent Projects, we learned that our offer was accepted and we knew we would be hiring them to help make our new home, feel like our home. We worked with Floyd to scope out several different phases of the project with the first phase being a 1 month cosmetic reno prior to move in. Floyd helped us select new hardwood floors, we created floating walls, new paint as well as oak finishes throughout, including an oak accent wall that completely transformed the space. Floyd brought in an amazing lineup of craftsmen, and vendors to complete the work - not only were these people exceptional at their craft but they were dependable and finished things according to schedule. He even designed a custom sideboard to address the unique dimensions and needs of the space.
>
> Julia helped to select all of the furniture pieces for the main living spaces and coordinated their arrival upon completion of the work and just prior to our move in date. Despite the short timeline and the natural tension that comes with taking on such a project, Floyd and Julia made it a truly enjoyable and easy process. Their genuine enthusiasm for the project mirrored ours throughout and we felt like they took the same pride in the the outcome as if it were their own. Needless to say, we got so much more in hiring Prevalent Projects than we could have hoped for - we now consider them confidants and friends and look forward to continuing to work with them on subsequent phases of the project. For anyone considering hiring Prevalent Projects, you will not find 2 more genuine and talented people in Floyd and Julia to help bring your design dreams to life.

**★★★★★ — Amy Chang, Sept. 2020**

> Julia and Floyd are fantastic. We've worked with them on a couple projects now and keep going back to them for design advice and to their showroom for ideas and to directly purchase pieces.

**★★★★★ — Aaron Ackermann, Aug. 2020**

> We came to Floyd and Julia for help with our dining room and living room, and they were so great to work with that we also go their help with outdoor and bedroom furniture as well! Efficient, thoughtful, connected, resourceful and flexible: they were great to work with!

**★★★★★ — M G, June 2020**

> Prevalent Projects has been a pleasure to work with. They come to meetings prepared with an eco-friendly approach that is appreciated. Their ideas are always fresh but most importantly they are good LISTENERS. They are able to look past what they like and hear what you like and provide you with designs that are curated for you.
