ABOUT SUSAN

Susan Bednar Long’s celebrated style is inspired by her design training at two world class luxury brands, extensive travels, and her early design training in NYC. She is known for her love of stripes and turquoise.

Beginning her career at a boutique design-build firm in Beverly Hills, Susan worked with some of the world’s most recognized celebrities and learned that “clients want someone to manage every detail and deliver ‘turnkey’ projects.”

Later, at Polo Ralph Lauren, Susan oversaw the decoration of their flagship Retail Stores and at Coach, she was the creative force behind their new store prototype and furniture line. “My experiences taught me to layer all of the elements – wallpaper, artwork, furniture, fabrics, accessories, and lighting. Without layering, rooms aren’t complete.”

Susan’s travels for business and pleasure provide rich inspirations for her projects. “You never know when you’ll see something special – from a row of cabanas on an Italian beach to the lobby of a small inn in the Alps – that can provide a novel inspiration.”

Susan graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Occidental College and studied at UCLA’s Interior and Environmental Design Program. She currently lives in Dallas, Texas and Litchfield County, Connecticut with her husband John, their two children & beloved Goldendoodle.
