ANOTHER FIRE FOR SANTA BARBARA...SHANNON SCOTT DESIGN AGAIN OFFERS ASSISTANCE TO FIRE SURVIVORS...

We have just experienced yet another tragic fire in Santa Barbara.  As with the Tea Fire, I make the same offer to the Jesusita Fire survivors.  Please pass this on to anyone you may know who has been effected by either fire.

As a way to help I am offering 2 complimentary hours of interior design services, and 20% off any additional design services that may be required for the project. The 2 hours may be used in a variety of ways including:

• Make material recommendations including environmentally sustainable options.
• Review plans and make furniture placement and size recommendations.
• Help prioritize design decisions and the selection making process.
• Assist in developing initial design direction, colors, schemes, & materials.
• Make recommendations for Architects, Contractors, and other building professionals.
• Any other way I can make the rebuilding/remodelling process easier.

I am available when it is time to begin the rebuild/remodel process.....Shannon
