Where Timeless Design Meets Beachside Living

Inspired by Life, Shaped by Love

From her earliest days exploring New York City’s iconic design landmarks with her mother — from Bloomingdale’s to the Kips Bay Showhouses — Joanne has carried with her a lifelong appreciation for spaces that inspire comfort, creativity, and connection.

Now based at the Jersey Shore, Joanne brings that same passion into every project she touches. Her approach goes beyond design: it’s about listening, understanding, and building real relationships. She brings out the essence of each client’s lifestyle, creating homes that radiate warmth, ease, and authenticity while standing the test of time.

This commitment has earned her the trust of the local community, with much of her work growing organically through referrals, and lasting partnerships. For Joanne, design is more than a service — it’s a shared journey toward creating meaningful, joyful spaces that celebrate life by the ocean.

“The Beach Home Life is all about the love, and nothing makes me happier than seeing our clients feel truly at home.”
Joanne de França-Marino, Founder
