Sue Firestone as spent the past 35+ years cultivating her personal passion for design operating leading international interior design firm, SFA Design. With a client list that features the world’s premier five and six-star hotels as well as an A-list residential clientele, Sue has become a tastemaker for those seeking the ultimate luxury lifestyle.

In 1996, nearly two decades leading Design 1, Sue turned her focus toward creating a boutique design firm, large enough to execute projects of a grand scale, yet personal enough to provide devoted and intimate attention to each client. The result was SFA Design, a California-based design firm serving clients worldwide, with offices in Los Angeles, New York, and Santa Barbara.

Setting her apart from others in her field, Sue’s “couture concept” for interiors defies the industry standard of a signature style, allowing her to use her clients as inspiration to create homes and hotels that are a direct reflection of the person, place or brand for which she designs.

Sue’s commitment to an innovative design aesthetic and a combined passion for travel have made her a leader in the design world while keeping her on the cutting edge of global trends and the latest styles.

Sue is the recipient of more than two dozen awards, including the prestigious Platinum Circle Award as well as a position on Robb’s Report’s “Top 40 Best Designers in the World.”
