With over fifteen years of experience, Sondra Howell is a licensed interior designer who conceives timeless, authentic, and human centric spaces. Design is storytelling, and Sondra artfully crafts poetic narratives unique to each client.

 Sondra grew up on the edge of the Pacific in the seaside town of Cambria, California.   A picturesque region, the rocky coastline and golden hills instilled an artistic spark in Sondra.  With this context she pursued an interior design degree at the California College of the Arts (CCA) and the University of San Francisco (USF).   Sondra’s education at CCA was marked by an immersive interdisciplinary approach to design.  An emphasis on critical thinking, collaboration, research, and the traditional practice of craft defined her creative voice. 

 Imaginative yet timeless and elegant yet effortless, Sondra designs and curates empathetic spaces that improve daily life and enhance the human experience.
