did you know?

"I was involved in a three year project in Santa Barbara, California [with Tanya]... in the tear down and reconstruction of our Santa Barbara home. The entire experience was extremely positive. [We] worked closely together, on a weekly basis, for over two years.

First, and most importantly, they listened and heard what my needs and wants were. They then gave professional direction to accomplish these goals...[and] were extremely supportive when working with my architects, contractor and the sub-trades. Because they were knowledgeable of the possible challenges that could occur, potential problems were solved prior to them occurring. Our meetings with these different groups were always productive and fun...

Tanya always impressed me with her attention to detail. Not only with record keeping but her memory recall saved us many times...

We developed a wonderful working relationship and personal friendship throughout these two projects and it continues to this day.

I highly recommend the expertise and professionalism of Tanya Shively."

Bio

Tanya Shively, ASID tanya@sesshudesign.com

A native of spectacular Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Ms Shively was influenced early in her life by the majestic beauty of the Teton mountain range and natural wilderness surrounding her home. She has subsequently lived in various areas of the country, including Montana, Michigan and now for over a decade her home has been Arizona. The natural grandeur of each place she has called home finds its way into many of her designs in the form of spacious interiors that provide a sense of place and well-being to the homeowner. Inspired by the natural beauty she has known for a lifetime, Tanya actively seeks ways to protect it by incorporating ecologically responsive and sustainable design into her projects.

As a child, Tanya developed a keen interest in art, architecture and design that has never wavered. Pursuing her passion, she obtained a degree in Interior Design in 1997 then went on to attain NCIDQ Certification and become a professional member of ASID. Her work in four states and award winning designs have earned the respect of her clients and the recognition for excellence from her colleagues. Her awards include:

2001 ASID Product Design Furnishings
2003 ASID Residential Over 6000 sq. ft.
2004 Best in American Living Platinum - Custom Residential Over 6000 sq. ft.

As a designer, Tanya brings an exceptional artistic ability to each project. Her goal is to give life to beauty and creativity through form and function, balance and harmony, individuality and innovation. With a natural drawing talent and gifted eye for color, she visualizes completed projects throughout the design process, from conceptual plans and interior architecture to all-inclusive interiors with furnishings and accessories. Those talents, coupled with her ability to understand a client's desires and produce a unique and beautiful space that feels wonderful to them, truly distinguish her as a designer.
