A beautifully designed room can look stunning,

A studio built around one vision.

Chanova Design is led by Zilia Zhou, a California Council for Interior Design Certification (CCIDC) certified interior designer, with a small studio team carrying that vision through every stage of your project.


Every project we take on runs through one point of leadership — no committees, no diluted direction. Just one clear design vision, backed by the team to execute it.
