Our Story
Since 1989, we have been transforming living spaces and removing the stress of building for clients across the greater Western United States. Born out of a desire to utilize exceptional organizational and management skills in real estate investment, our roots began in purchasing, renovating, and revitalizing neglected properties. As we developed these properties, it quickly became clear that our true talent was in space planning and seeing the absolute potential of a home.
Today, JW Design & Management brings decades of domain knowledge to every project, seamlessly blending property development, meticulous project management, and high-end interior design.
Our Philosophy
We approach every project as though we will be living in the home ourselves. All the details matter. Our specialty lies in improving a home’s floor plan, ensuring proper flow, and maximizing the utilization of space. By incorporating a deep love for design and a rich background in fashion, we create spaces that are as highly functional as they are beautiful.
