Valerie Helgeson
Lead Designer + founder
Design Directions is a well-respected design and build firm with a rich history spanning over 20 years, founded by principal designer Valerie Helgeson. Her meticulous attention to detail is a hallmark of her work, as she adeptly utilizes neutral color palettes to allow the tones and textures of furnishings and materials to create a subtle tactile backdrop. Valerie's approach is characterized by a versatility that transcends any singular style, instead, she deftly tailors her designs to harmonize with the unique vision of each client, the architectural essence of the home, and the surrounding environment.
“Above all the home should be welcoming, functionally modern, comfortable.”
