Our Process

Paul Wiseman brings his rich experience and discerning eye to the overall aesthetic direction of The Wiseman Group. He is intimately involved in each design project and has brought together an impressive staff of designers who benefit from the group-practice model that provides maximum flexibility and allows the firm to customize a team that best fits the needs of each client. This process begins with Paul's exploration of the client's philosophy and lifestyle to gain a full understanding of aesthetic objectives and establish the project's timeline and budget. As the project unfolds, staff are assigned, and the dialogue expands to include contractors, subcontractors, vendors, and artisan craftspeople who bring the job to life. The firm's strong business sensibility, combined with exceptional creative talent, differentiates it from others in the design industry.

The Wiseman Group provides exceptional interior decorating and architectural design services. Each professional design team has extensive experience in the selection of color, fabrics, furniture, lighting, and furnishings, both antique and contemporary. They have a fine perspective of the history of interior design. The firm's attention to detail and exemplary design services are brought to each new project, whether it be a country estate, a private jet, or an exclusive golf club.

Specialty Projects & Non-residential
