FIND OUT WHAT THIS TALENTED LOCAL DESIGNER HAS PLANNED FOR THE SUMMER
AURORA/WHEATON–Paulina was born and raised in Greece and moved to the U.S. to attend college, raise her two children (25 and 29) and start her business, Paulina Hughes Design, a full-service design firm dedicated to providing customized, functional design solutions for commercial and residential clients.
“I love being able to visualize the end result, never repeating a project, and being excited about each new client,” Paulina says. “I wear many hats, GM for construction projects, designer for interior work, doing entry planters seasonally and I am becoming an expert at whitewashing fireplaces - so really no day is the same!”
