BIO: Joanne Hurd has been designing interior home spaces in the Cape Ann Community of Massachusetts and the Greater Boston Area since 1977. In addition to specializing in kitchens, baths, and master suites, Ms. Hurd designs rooms and cabinetry/millwork in all other areas of the home as well. Delving into the palette of elements that best reflect the clients’ unique visions of purpose and style is at the heart of her business. Whether the work encompasses the interior design and decoration of an entire home or just one alcove, she relishes her role as both a problem-solver and a visionary, recognizing that the process of defining and putting into play our personal aesthetics can truly enhance our lives. She continues to keep busy with folks who are interested in distinctive and personalized room design, and who are invested in the process of careful, customized planning. In addition to room and cabinetry/millwork design, Ms. Hurd is now expanding her business to include both custom-designed specialty furniture pieces as well as, most recently, her own line of rug & tapestry designs.

Her venture in rug & tapestry design springs back to the early 1980’s when she began some side-line work creating various rug designs for luxury hotels and resort properties. Over the last several years, she has re-ignited her passion for mingling shape, pattern, color, and texture into woven art pieces that further embellish our interior spaces. These rugs and tapestries are designed in a wide repertoire of styles and can be ordered as is or tailored to varying sizes and specific colors to fit a room’s decor. Completely custom designs can also be created. Currently, most of these designs are hand-knotted in Nepal with Tibetan wool and/or silk. Pieces that are designed for wall art can include numerous mounting options with tapestry head rails fabricated from various combinations of woods, finishes, metal, glass, as well as integral lighting. Like the rugs and tapestries, these head rails can be selected from standard designs or completely custom-created.  Whether a rug or tapestry is selected first, and the remaining room decor follows, or whether the room decor has been established, and then a rug or tapestry follows - these woven DesignScapes add rhythm to a room which, for many years to come, can both enrich the senses and elevate the spirit.
