JESSica MARSHALL | FOUNDER & PRINCIPAL DESIGNER

Jessica is the only interior designer in the Sacramento, California region who’s laser-focused on business owners in the hospitality & boutique industry who are following a dream & looking to build a customer experience through service & atmosphere — & she’s been doing it for over 25 years across the UK & USA. She’s also the only designer voted onto the Executive Board of the California Restaurant Association.

Design Philosophy

Jessica designs for feeling — spaces that hum with energy, vibe with soul, & leave a mark. Her interiors are where brand meets mood, & where guests don’t just dine — they remember. Her interiors are built on the belief that hospitality is a sensory experience, not a transaction. She’s obsessed with ambiance, flow, & the kind of visual storytelling that makes guests linger longer & spend more.

“Design should feel like a backstage pass to the brand’s soul.”

Industry Expertise

She’s worked with the big dogs — Marriott, Hilton, IHG — & helped owners turn their dream into a destination.

In the UK she has worke on stables such as Harry Ramsden's, John Lewis restaurants, & Debenham's Cafes. One independent restaurant she helped design was owned by the royal family members, which got nominated for the Restaurant & Bar Awards.

Being a down right architectural history geek, her favorite project was designing a cafe located in an Grade I English National Heritage Building, which was once a crypt in the 13th century & wine cellar in the 17th century. This project received a Cafe Design Society Award.
