My name is Suzanne Lyon Eyre and I'm from the San Francisco Bay Area. I have a BA and MBA from Stanford University and was a management consultant with McKinsey & Co. before starting my own consultancy. For the last 30 years, I have been providing problem solving design advice to my friends and family - always energized by the process and delighted with seeing my visions come to life.
It wasn't until recently when a friend vehemently said to me, "A million people in the Bay Area make money doing what they love, why not you?" did I decide to pursue my passion for creative problem solving to deliver innovative design solutions to interior and exterior spaces.
Lyon Eyre Designs was established as a design consultancy to help homeowners as well as commercial building owners make changes to their properties to enhance that "feel" --- without necessarily requiring major remodeling costs or tearing down and starting over. With the cost to own in the San Francisco Bay Area, I see many homeowners flummoxed, once they purchase their homes, about how to give their houses style, pizzazz, and a sense of home. How to use their square footage effectively and create amazing places to live.
My own mother almost broke into tears when she first saw our small, double-wide like home, featured in many of these photos. Today, it is my extended family's gathering place accommodating large gatherings fluidly. For its footprint, we live closely but have away places for privacy and quiet. Leveraging its good bones, paint, woodworking, and imagination, visitors comment on the "feel" of our home and its unique character.
Working with local architects, contractors, and suppliers, I can help you make your house your home or your commercial building something special. Alternatively, I offer design consulting - providing design options, images, and plans that you can take to your contractor/architect for implementation.
