A potpourri of design in the true English tradition is one of the many looks of London-born Jennifer Garrigues.  Jennifer, a former high fashion model, worked for 10 years with such designers as Jean Muir from London, Christian Dior, James Galanos and Hanae Mori.   This was a good background for her to learn proportion, texture and to understand the beauty of design in all its elements.  She has traveled the world from the Far East, Europe and South America studying the culture and people of many countries.

Always loving architecture and interiors, Jennifer decided to add another string to her bow and attend the New York School of Design to learn the "mechanics of business" and at the same time designed the interiors for clients at the Carlyle Hotel in New York.  This was such a success that she was asked to be on the design team at the Palm Beach Polo and Country Club, where she designed a villa for HRH Prince Charles along with many other polo enthusiasts.

Wanting to expand into Palm Beach, she opened her own business and studio and has designed for a diverse group of clients such as composer/singer Boz Scaggs and the late artist Vidal Quadras.  Her special sense of style is sought by the corporate world for offices and houses.  "The exciting commissions are the ones that are the most difficult and challenging", says Jennifer.  Color, texture and design must blend harmoniously in every space.  Getting to know people and how they live is part of Jennifer's design concept.  Combining that knowledge with her wonderful sense of color, scale and texture helps bring into being a fabulous interior.

Jennifer Garrigues, Inc. design studios are located at 308 Peruvian Avenue, Palm Beach, Florida, and 954 Lexington Ave., Suite 225 New York, New York 10021 offering complete design services for residential, commercial and hospitality projects.  Her antiques, furniture and decorative accessories collected from around the world are located at her Peruvian Avenue atelier.

Mrs. Garrigues is an active member of ASID (American Society of Interior designers) and IIDA (International Interior Design Association).
