Suzan Horne – Interior Designer in Los Angeles, California
Interior designer Suzan Horne is a Boston University graduate who offers more than 31 years of experience in the design field, including commercial and residential projects from coast to coast. Suzan started her career in interior design with Knoll International (the award-winning furniture manufacturer). Later, she worked for Santa Monica-based Ellerbe Becket in the mid-1980s, among the three largest interior design firms in the United States.
Suzan opened her own interior design house, Give Me Shelter Design, in Los Angeles, incorporated in the autumn of 2001.
Suzan was raised in the architecture and design-rich environment of Tuxedo Park, New York. She was exposed to the most exquisite craftsmanship of all types in the magnificent one-of-a-kind homes of this exclusive community. These were the homes of the late 19th and early 20th-century industrial and financial tycoons. No expense was spared to create these elaborate residences designed by a stellar roster of America’s greatest architects from the Age of Elegance, executed by skilled artisans immigrating to America from Europe. Tuxedo Park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in recognition of its distinctive architecture, and it is where the Tuxedo was created. It is also where Dorothy Draper grew up.
