Hello, 2024!

Hello, 2024! Spending time with our loved ones over the holidays is always a joy (family is one of our core values at AHD&Co, and something we prioritize for our team and our clients). We had a great break, but we were glad to get back—refreshed and eager to meet the year ahead. 

We spent January and February meeting new clients and checking in on current projects, and as we move into the months ahead we are looking forward to creating new standards for mindful living with our sophisticated (yet functional!) designs. Another goal this year is to grow our AHD Trade community to help more designers source the superior furnishings, fabrics, case goods and accessories their clients are looking for.
What’s AHD Trade? In case you missed it, last year we launched a new Designer Trade program, providing our interior designer colleagues access to our trade resources and exclusive pricing, along with access to the AHD Design Center.

 AHD Trade: Your Designs. Our Resources.

It takes a village to make an interior design business work, and with AHD Trade, designers have a partner that understands the procurement challenges they face. Made for designers, by designers, the AHD Trade program levels the playing field. Here, designers at all levels and firms of all sizes can source furnishings from leading manufacturers. 

As an AHD Trade member, designers can also utilize our beautiful AHD Design Center in downtown Westfield, NJ! Showcasing product lines, fabrics, case goods and accessories, this space allows designers the opportunity to collaborate with their clients at a dedicated working space and review the materials on site. Clients have the ability to see, touch, and sit-test furnishings to help make their decisions.

And the best part? Zoe Kimble, AHD Trade Director, literally becomes your procurement specialist. She provides you with the same support she provides the AHD&Co team. She’ll take all of the ordering, tracking, and receiving tasks off your plate, so you have more time for your design projects.

AHD&Co: Where Architecture Meets Design

At AHD&Co, we have a unique advantage. Our team includes both interior designers and architects. This cross-disciplinary expertise allows us to seamlessly blend aesthetics, functionality and feasibility across all of our residential and commercial projects. Leveraging backgrounds in both fields, our holistic approach creates spaces that not only look beautiful but actually work for our clients’ needs and lifestyle. The result is a cohesive vision that considers how layouts, systems, materials, lighting and furniture work in harmony. Clients love having one trusted design advisor overseeing the entirety of the process.

Trusted Advisors

This time of year, I like to reflect on the faith that our clients put in our team and me. I am so grateful for each opportunity and consider it a privilege to be your trusted advisor throughout the design and construction process. Take it from me, this industry can test your resolve. It requires constant innovation, a relentless work ethic, and the ability to adapt over and over again. But despite the hurdles, it is the confidence and support of our clients that fuels our determination to deliver exceptional results. 

Each project we undertake is about creating dreams and turning visions into reality. It’s about building spaces where memories are made, businesses thrive, and communities and families come together. I am honored to be part of a team that shares a passion for excellence and commitment to exceeding expectations. Our success is measured not solely in completed projects, but in the relationships we have cultivated along the way.

What a beautiful adventure! I am so excited for the promise 2024 holds. We are thrilled to see the expansion of the AHD Trade program, start some ambitious new projects, and collaborate with so many wonderful clients. To all of those we’ve had the pleasure of working with so far, thank you for inviting us into your lives and trusting your homes and businesses to us. It means the world. Stay tuned for some exciting announcements we have in store this year!
