About House of Funk
Hi – I’m Sandra Funk, founder and CEO of House of Funk. After 20 years as a luxury interior designer, I’m now a business strategist focused on empowering and educating the next generation of design entrepreneurs.
I always knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur, but wasn’t sure what kind. So, I earned a finance degree and joined Accenture, a top consulting firm, where I helped Fortune 500 companies improve efficiency and profitability.
I was drawn to the emerging field of web usability, which led me to Parsons School of Design in NYC. While there were no dedicated web courses at the time, I enrolled in their interior design program, hoping to apply its principles to the digital realm. But, as soon as I sat on one of those paint-covered stools, I fell head over heels in love with interior design. And that was the end of my business process consulting story…
I entered the interior design industry and worked in retail, to-the-trade design showrooms and for other designers before starting my own firm, House of Funk, in 2005.
Despite my business degree, a background in business process consulting and studying design at Parsons, it took me over a decade – with the help of several experts – to develop and fine-tune a business model that allowed my interior design firm to thrive.
I grew House of Funk into a seven-figure business designing luxury homes with a full pipeline of referrals and an amazing team. I’m honored to have been featured in national publications like Ad Pro and Elle Decor.
Designers come to me for my signature program – the Interior Design Standard when they’re ready to elevate their business with a structured system that attracts dream clients.
The Interior Design Standard provides a comprehensive business model that empowers designers to streamline their workflow with a templated interior design process, price projects confidently using a powerful pricing calculator, build a strong professional network through my inner circle, protect their business with a robust design agreement, attract and retain dream clients with expertly crafted email templates and achieve balance, abundance and joy with a sustainable business system.
By implementing my proven process, designers gain the confidence and clarity needed to thrive as entrepreneurs.
“Sandra has created an incredible firm that delivers beautiful work while being client focused. She has an amazing eye for design, can see the big picture and always finds touches that make a room.” — Christine
Award-Winning Design
We are so honored to have recently been awarded the Gold for Environmental Design for the Driven x Design 2019 New York Design Awards.
This 1780’s Farmhouse renovation has an incredible story; when we gutted the kitchen, we found no foundation – it was just dirt and an open water well beneath what must have been a breezeway to the original out kitchen…
Of course, it all worked out and turned into an eco-friendly dream home. Read more about the project, here.
