About
Design. Architecture. Passion. Integrity.
And, of course, our namesake.
The team at Christopher Zoltan Designs offers full-service capabilities, including
interior design, architecture, CAD, 3-D space planning, virtual reality design, color schedules, custom designs, contract grade furniture, cabinet, and built-in fabrication, and more. We do so with a level of creativity and care that some may call borderline obsessive. We’re okay with that. So are these companies (and many others) we’re honored to call clients.
