Joseph August 14 2023

 

Joseph came upon interiors and décor at an early age. While helping run a Design Trade showroom with his family in Southern California, he found a love for interiors and working with the design community. Bespoke became a passion, and sustainability a priority, during his 20 years representing furniture and accessory companies. Joseph moved to Portland in 2019 to be with family, and Portland has become home. He prides himself on his close relationships with his clients, encouraging creativity while focusing on detail and integrity.

Perfect PDX Day: Starts with a morning hike with his wife and dogs enjoying sunshine, a cool breeze, and crunching leaves under foot. Into the city for a relaxing brunch with family at Hunnymilk or Victoria, followed by flipping through record bins at Music Millennium or 2nd Avenue where Joseph will randomly find a rare title to cross off his list. Next, a trip to a local market to enjoy the festivities and see Portland’s small businesses thrive. Finally, time in the kitchen cooking one of their favorite meals as a family before enjoying a board game or movie together.

Dream Trip: A European Vacation! Joseph likes to see all sides of the places he visits, so the trip would be full of spontaneity and wrong turns. He would start at the Fjords of Scandinavia and head to the southern tip of Italy, catching as much live music, art, architecture, and cuisine as possible in every corner. Including the Cannes Film Festival in the curriculum would not hurt either. After all this, the bucket list is almost complete...

Cats or Dogs: Joseph loves all animals, but is a lifetime Dog Dad. He's had the privilege of loving many pups, from Siberian Huskies to Bulldogs, but regardless of breed, he can’t get enough of their unconditionally loving personalities.
