Partners Cynthia Piana and Lori Souza, combine a love of architecture and design with extensive experience in construction and project management. They are experts at providing their clients stylistic and beautiful custom living spaces efficiently and quickly – with a special personal touch. While most of their projects are in Southern California, they are frequently called upon to work on projects all across the continental U.S. and abroad, including San Francisco, Sun Valley Idaho and New Orleans.

Several characteristics make Piana Design unique within the art of interior design: Construction expertise and collaboration with builders and architects, especially where kitchen and bath are concerned, allow them to enter a project in the initial stages and implement innovative, as well as cost-effective ideas to custom home designs.
