It really does all begin with the plan.

AJS Design/s is a full-service NYC based interior design studio devoted to the craft of space making. We are interior designers who think architecturally. This combination of talents allows us to execute everything from full-scale renovations to interior design/decorative services.

The first question most people ask is “what is your style?” 

At AJS we respond to our clients’ individual lifestyles and sites to inspire the feeling of their spaces. As a result, the “style” is unique for each project. We understand the elements that go into both modern and classic interiors, and move easily between the two creating compelling environments that truly work for both the owners and their spaces. Our keen eye for curating innovative materials, exceptional furnishings and objects invite each owner to engage with their dwelling. These are settings that are meant to be used, elegant but never precious, getting better with time.

Designing a space is about a million small decisions.

In today’s changing design landscape, our studio’s model of addressing both the architectural and the decorative elements pertinent to all projects, streamlines the process of renovating for our clients. We consider each decision, big and small, to make sure every detail is covered. A winner of Luxe Magazine’s Readers Choice Award, AJS’s work speaks to people who appreciate sophistication, warmth and livability.

Whether constructing a log cabin atop an urban townhouse*, or updating a living room, AJS listens and combines years of experience, with a passion for creating beautiful spaces for our clients at every scale.
