Johker Design

We hired Johker Design to bring our office from the crowded, semi-functional state that it had evolved into over 20 years. The office is approximately 600 square feet and was bisected by credenzas that held all of the technology - printers, scanners, servers, etc. Kerry Hoffman and Johannes Hoffman worked with us on some creative alternatives. Then Kerry worked with our contractor to remove a small wall separating two adjacent closets and add electric outlets in the closets. Now the credenzas are in the joined closet and all of the technology (other than our laptops / large LCD Displays) are in the closet and the doors remain closed most of the time. Then they recommended we replace our separate (2 of us work in the office) dark wood desks and book case / hutches with a light colored 5 foot by 5 foot desk with a cable tray in the center - from IKEA. We sit on opposite sides of the desk and it woks well. This, coupled with moving a nice glass shelf system into the office from a hallway, dramatically opened up and lightened the tone of the office. Kerry complimented the new, lighter colors of the desk with a new rug for the desk side of the room (keeping the 1920s Oriental rug from my mother's house in the other side) and slip covers for the comfortable chairs and replaced the 30 year old couch with a cool, modern one. The effect is visually exciting and the work space seems more productive! The Johker design team was quick to suggest creative ideas, flex with price challenges, and receptive to our wants / needs.

As a professional, award winning designer, for over forty years, it is of great pleasure to review Johker Design. I recently visited their latest project, and it is a knockout. Calm, elegant and timeless. We have worked professionally together for many years creating award winning interior design that were on time and on budget. Our joint goal was always to take the client's criteria and goals and exceed their expectations. I am pleased to see this new venture, Johker Design, and know they will be asset to anyone's project.

I've been a fan of the work of JohKer Design for years, and I am so excited that they have worked on our home and will continue to do so. Their style seamlessly incorporates the historic and modern, with clean lines and neutral color schemes with splashes of color interspersed in the most dynamic ways as to enhance the focal point of a space, the gathering space or another area of interest. Their knowledge base goes far beyond what is pleasing to the eye, it's also pleasing for the wallet. They understand in what places it makes sense to spend a little extra, and advise ways to cut costs by using alternate materials in other places. They are timely, easy to work with and are great at hearing and understanding what you want.

Kerry and Johannes are wonderful to work with. They have a consummate understanding of all the elements of architecture, construction, and interior design. Not only do they have many years of experience, they have the innate talent to see projects from inception to completion. We look forward to working with them in the future.

I have found the Hoffmans to be exceedingly professional, with a great eye for space and design, and a joy to work with.
