Client-Centric Interior Design Services
Founded in New York City in 2009, Harry Heissmann embodies a client-centric approach to interior design. With a Master's degree from the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and over two decades of experience in the U.S., I have developed a reputation for blending traditional and contemporary styles to meet each client's unique vision. My career began in 1995, working alongside renowned designer Albert Hadley, whose mentorship shaped my philosophy that design is about the client's comfort, practicality, and personal expression.I specialize in creating spaces that reflect individuality, whether through residential projects, designer showhouses, or commercial interiors. Recognized in publications like Architectural Digest and Veranda, my work extends beyond design into education as a faculty member at the New York School of Interior Design. I approach every project with warmth, humor, and a commitment to transforming spaces into meaningful environments, from small-scale renovations to large-scale showhouse installations.
