Heather Colligan-Clarke

I am a consultative advocate for organizations as they navigate moving to a new location, reconfiguring their current space, implementing a branded environment or building a new culture.

I am a single point of contact for my clients, while building an internal team of architecturally focused interior designers, furniture designers and construction project managers around each opportunity.

I lead the internal team to meet client expectations, goals, timelines and financial thresholds.

I use my design background to anticipate challenges and problem solve on behalf of the organizations we serve.

I develop relationships with clients that have lasted throughout my career in my current and previous role at Creative Business Interiors.

I led interior design projects from concept to completion ensuring alignment with the client's vision and budget constraints.

I collaborated with outside architects and contractors as well as furniture vendors when Creative Business Interiors was not providing these services.

I evaluated site conditions for the constraints that would apply to planning and code compliance.

I wrote design contracts and presented them to clients. Mentoring junior designers as well as reviewing their work for proper documentation, construction coordination and the best solutions was part of my role.

Facilitation of client presentations and articulating design concepts clearly while informing on budget impacts allowed our clients to make informed decisions about their space.
