Claire Zee is a Jersey City-based interior designer. She grew up moving around both within the United States and overseas, which inspired her passion for interior design. Half French, half Singaporean, her style is highly influenced by the multi-cultural background she comes from, and those she continues to seek out. Claire believes that successful interior design should not only be beautiful and functional, but also a reflection of those who inhabit the space. She loves getting to know her clients on a more personal level, and being able to understand their loves, cultures, and stories.

### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Isabella Marie Interiors, Jan. 2023**

> I've worked with (and known) Claire for a while now, and I cannot recommend her more from both a professional and personal perspective! Her careful attention to detail, deep interest in her clients and projects, and generous and creative nature make her an incredible designer and teammate. I hope I get to work with her on many more projects!

**★★★★★ — Allie Moller, Jan. 2021**

> Claire has done a couple projects for me now and has completely nailed each one. I feel so happy when I walk into my home and just love the interiors of my space (something I had never felt before!!). I love that she worked with me to understand my personal style, but also suggested pieces that I would have never thought of. Highly recommend Claire to anyone looking for top notch design services!

**★★★★★ — Laure, Nov. 2020**

> We used Claire to furnish our new apartment. She was amazing, and I recommend her without hesitation.
> She has impeccable tastes and was really good at listening to our (strong) opinions at times. She gave us many options for each room, which would work with the artwork we already had.
> She is very easy to work with, accommodated our schedule without fuss, and is extremely fast and responsive.
> If you are looking for a designer with an excellent taste and who listens, sticks to your budget, and works fast without compromising quality, then hire Claire.

**★★★★★ — Chris Jun, Nov. 2020**

> We used Claire to help us with a gut renovation and addition to a 110 year old 8500 sq ft home. Working with Claire was the best decision we made on the entire project. Full stop.
>
> She was key in delivering us our dream home of timeless understated beauty while meeting the demands of our growing family. The results (and photos you can see on her site) speak for themselves so I speak more of her work ethic.
>
> She paid for herself many times over finding creative ways to stay within our budget and most importantly helped me stay sane and the project moving even when we would come across those small crisis found in every construction project.
>
> As an engineer, I can tell you her attention to details and strive for perfection is second to none.
>
> Having worked with interior designers before, it’s a fine line they walk managing client’s expectations within the constructs of their budgets. Never once did she come off as presumptive of how we should spend our money and fought hard to provide the best value while achieving the highest quality results.

**★★★★★ — dlsalerno, Nov. 2020**

> I needed help with furniture selection, placement and scale to incorporate new pieces into my living area.  I had never worked with an interior designer before, and frankly was not sure if the expense would be worth it. After talking with several candidates, I found Claire and we got to work.  BEST DECISION EVER.  She remained conscious to budget, offered several options for each decision.  She ever so gently opened my eyes to better decisions, options, all things I NEVER would have chosen, or found, on my own that I LOVE.
>
> The decision paid for itself many times over!!!   Claire is wonderful, and I will not hesitate to work with her again and highly recommend her services!

**★★★★★ — Lisa Barnett, Nov. 2020**

> I’ve worked with Claire on two different occasions and each time she went above and beyond to ensure my apartments were perfect. She’s detail oriented, creative and flexible, and listens to your opinion yet asserts her own, which i very much value as such a talented designer. She can also flex across a wide varieties of budgets. Will 100 percent work with her for a third time when that time comes!! I couldn’t recommend her more.

**★★★★★ — Elyse Steinhaus, Nov. 2019**

> Claire is great to work with. She's very attentive and responsive, and went the extra mile to provide great service. She helped us find several key pieces for our two-bedroom apartment at various price points that fit within our budget.

**★★★★★ — HU-52499671, Nov. 2019**

> Claire has incredible taste, and made sure I was comfortable with her ideas before moving forward. She is always professional and warm, and went above and beyond to make sure I was happy.

**★★★★★ — Carla Chalah, May 2019**

> Claire is amazing! Her work is incredible. She has such a good eye and really listens to her client’s needs. I highly recommend her work!

**★★★★★ — HU-406829211, Nov. 2018**

> Claire is nothing short of amazing. Her bright personality, her illuminated ideas, her amazing eye for design in residential spaces is breath taking. I’ve had the pleasure to work with Claire in so many projects. We currently have (3) we are working on together at the moment.  Claire had called The construction company I manage and had thankfully scheduled an estimate with me and it was all up hill from there. We have been working on projects together ever since.
>
> She is so helpful and great at what she does. From managing budgets, to design ideas, price points and matching materials, she is so great! She really takes the uniqueness of any home and brings it to life!
>
> I absolutely adore her and would recommend her to any and everyone out there looking for an interior designer. As a matter of fact, I already do!

**★★★★★ — Whitney Marcus, Oct. 2018**

> I have worked with Claire as a vendor on several project and she is a pleasure. Professional, creative and timely. I look forward to working with her on many more projects in the future!

**★★★★★ — Diana Cojocaru, March 2018**

> I worked with Claire when I rebuilt my house as I wanted something modern but also to keep the traditional feeling.
> She had a lot of great ideas and she helped me decide what would fit my needs better.
> Overall the result was fantastic, all my family and friends are delighted! I would highly recommend her!

  - Description: A few photos from yesterday’s bathroom shoot! For this project, the client wanted to update his master bath to something more modern and minimal. We went with these porcelain wood tiles from @porcelanosa to mimic a hardwood look, and paired it with a simple 18x47” wall tile, which we carried into the bath surround. I love the subtle variation in these “natural” textures. Sometimes, less is more :)

  - Description: Even with a strict budget, this project was so much- between finding little knick-knacks to spruce up this bedroom, and repurposing old furniture, I was in DIY heaven. Think it was worth it and came together for a simple, yet bright and airy design- obviously with a bit of old character.
