22 Aug19474 Magnificent Montana Interiors Founded by owner Sarah Garofalo, Montana Interiors is a specialised interior design firm that has gained swift recognition for its ability to coordinate interior structures and surfaces into one cohesive and complete vision. As Montana’s ‘Best Client-Focused Interior Designer’ for 2019, we endeavoured to pull back the curtain on the firm to reveal the secrets to its success. “When thinking about the over-all interior space, designers have to consider the human experience, and the way people really operate at work, at home, at play, and in public life. They become experts in the safety, function and physiological aspects of spaces as well as psychological responses to color and texture and, depending on the project, individual aesthetic preferences” - Sarah Garofalo It’s easy to overlook the hidden intricacies and complexities of exceptional interior design. To miss the balance between function and form, the equilibrium between home and work, and the inclusion of bespoke, personal touches. In this way, as Sarah is quick to emphasise, the designer must adopt many faces to excel and consider the way that the individual elements come together into a cohesive whole. From Psychologist, to artist, to builder, to architect, to designer – like the places they create, designers must often play many roles united in one package. The most successful design firms make this delicate juggling act look almost easy and Montana Interiors, led by owner Sarah, manage to deliver on all these aspects. By all regards, Sarah’s brand of expertise lies in taking her clients’ unique visions, ideas and needs, and transforming them into concrete plans that contractors can bring to life. Operating also as a design guide, Sarah draws from her client’s culture, passions and life experiences when creating spaces that do more than simply fulfill functional requirements. Finished spaces radiate the personality and deeply-held values of clients and are the result of project-long collaboration between Montana Interiors and the client. More than all of this, Sarah is a solid, business-oriented individual who doesn’t get lost in the maze of details. Rather, the work at Montana Interiors is centred, simply, around the client. Promptly getting in touch, filling out paperwork, constantly communicating; everything the client needs is catered for by this superior designer, whether it be remodels, renovations, or an entirely new construction project. Crucially, when it comes to securing their enduring success, clients who work with Montana Interiors work solely with Sarah. Since graduating from the Design Institute of San Diego with a Bachelor of Fine Arts, Sarah’s lifelong passion for giving each client the experience they deserve culminates in truly luxurious spaces. Remaining a small company and a sole proprietor, she can achieve a realised dream with every project, and only takes on as many as she can handle, to ensure every client gets a personal service and experience. Possessing a truly unique grasp of form and function, Montana Interiors’ design process begins with thinking about the interior architecture and how a client might end up using their redesigned space. With careful consideration of financial, temporal and spatial constraints, Sarah sets the scope of the project from the outset. Storage, flow, and lighting requirements are all considered. Working alongside Sarah is akin to working with an architect; someone with a keen eye for design who can help clients fully embrace a space and the process of getting there. Each project is unique, and Sarah makes efforts to ensure that this idea carries through to the final product. With over ten years’ experience working across a broad range of industries, such as hotels, casinos and high-end interiors, to vacation homes, ranches, downtown condos and year-round homes, she has nurtured a varied skillset that is echoed across her body of work. Ultimately, passion and expertise in crafting beautifully-personable interior spaces are just some of the reasons that Montana Interiors has enjoyed such success since its formation. Sarah’s desire to give clients the space of their dreams through constant communication and crystal-clear understanding of wants and needs, separate her from the competition and make her one of Montana’s premier interior designers.
