Beth Rafferty’s career in interior design started more than 35 years ago. She began by fashioning interiors for executive offices including those of top attorneys as well as oil and gas companies. Her commercial clients would then ask Beth to design their homes, which lead to her vibrant residential design business.
Beth has always had a passion for interior design – she loves to entertain, goes all out for holidays, and creates special moments throughout her home. She enjoys doing the same for clients and making their homes lovely places to create memories. Beth believes homes should be both beautiful and functional, so homes work for how clients live.
