Complete Design Inside And Out

Since 2000, Gigi Design Group has been realizing custom interior and exterior designs for both residential and commercial clients. Gigi and Ermina Matic, each of who worked in various areas of the design business while living in many European cities, own the firm. The Matics’ combined experience has resulted in a unique flair for design and places Gigi Design Group in the enviable position of being able to offer a complete design service, including the execution of both interior and exterior projects. According to Gigi, “We are the only design firm in the area to offer this complete service. I can’t tell you how often we’ve taken on a single aspect of a project, such as exterior interlocking pavers or Mediterranean stone, only to end up being asked to take on the entire design.”

Regular referrals from satisfied clients bring many new patrons to the Cape Coral showroom, where they can find rich European fabrics, custom-designed bed coverings, one-of-a-kind accessories, examples of faux painting, Venetian plaster wall finishes and a host of window treatment ideas. “Practical and attractive window designs complete the interior look and feel of a space,” advises Ermina. “Whether your goal is to achieve a space that is relaxed and geared toward the family, or more formal and focused on entertaining, the window treatments have the ability to shape and complete a room more than any other design element.”

Having successfully completed design projects from Cape Coral to Marco Island, the decorators at Gigi Design Group understand that good interior design is about defining the space in which you live and work, and that working with a designer is a very intimate relationship. “Executing an interior is always a matter of customer preference,” says Ermina. “Whether a client’s taste runs to classic Tuscan or modern minimalism, we always try to create an environment for each client that reflects his or her taste and lifestyle. Our priority is to ensure that our clients end up with results that are right for them. It’s also crucial to find a designer who has a broad background of experience. Ideally, a designer should listen, interpret and lead a client in making the right choices to achieve his or her goals.” The seasoned designers at Gigi Design Group have the experience it takes to get projects completed on time and on budget.

In addition to residential design, Gigi Design Group has completed many commercial projects in the area, including the Cosmopolitan and Ariani restaurants. Whether residential or commercial, the unique backgrounds of the designers at Gigi Design Group combine to allow them to execute one of Florida’s latest design trends, that of melding exterior and interior design for year-round enjoyment.

"Because the Florida lifestyle is itself a blend of indoors and outdoors living space, that blend should occur seamlessly," advises Gigi. "By combining the natural tones of the marble, brick or stone a client selects for their outdoor living area, with the color palette of interior paint, fabric and window treatments, it's possible to meld the two areas into a single design scheme that will compliment both areas."

From stunning accessories to an entire house, Travertine marble to custom fabrics, Gigi Design Group guarantees their full attention to every design project, big or small, and firmly believes that every client is an individual with special requirements and every home is unique. Whatever your design budget, Gigi Design Group will give your project the attention to detail and timely follow-through you deserve.
