Cynthia established her interior design studio after an exciting start designing corporate interiors for an architectural firm in New York City. This provided a strong architectural background and helped her to develop a special talent for lighting interiors, mixing textures, and juxtaposing sculptural antiques with the clean lines of classic modern furniture. Her work led her to the Far East where she completed such diverse projects as the Tokyo residence of the Ambassador of the Kingdom of Morocco, and the executive offices of Morgan Guaranty Trust, in Hong Kong.
