Congratulations to Skip and the whole Sroka Design Inc. team for their recent inclusion in the prestigious AD Pro Directory for 2026!

Billet Collins was thrilled to paint this gorgeous foyer floor with the nautical star and border in wood tones.

It was an extra special project for us because we’ve worked with Skip since we first opened the studio ❤️ so it was more like painting for a good friend.

Cheers to many more painted floors in 2026 Sroka Design!

It’s official! Sroka Design made it into the prestigious AD Pro Directory for 2026. This list, vetted by Architectural Digest, includes respected designers from across the country. Less than a dozen designers in Washington, DC are on the list this year, which makes it even more special. We’re honored to have our work recognized in this way and we look forward to many exciting projects in the upcoming year.

Special thanks to Billet Collins Studio for their expert work in painting the design on the floor. They never disappoint!

Another beautiful project by Mary Drysdale with the perfectly colored blue and green striped walls. Imagine being welcomed home by this artful foyer!
Custom colors and hand painting by yours truly.

Striping walls is something we have done in many of our projects. When the stripes are hand painted, you can pick the width, the number of colors and of course select the colors that you think work with your scheme. We just completed a project in Logan Circle Neighborhood in a gray, black and off white scheme. These stripes were executed by Billet Collins Studio for a project on the "Hill". It takes a lot of careful measuring to get the stripes to turn out perfectly. The ceramic piece is from MacKenzie Gallery. Blue and green is such a pleasing color combination to me.

Fresh, bright energy with this color palette from Mary Douglas Drysdale Interior Design. Love how she makes a home a piece of art with all the bespoke finishes!

My interest in design began as a child, playing on the lawn of UVA. Years later I spent 3 years in Paris to study and conduct a self-styled Grand Tour of Europe. At Drysdale we offer interior architecture, decoration and art acquisition for our clients.

Kitchen inspo from the talented Iantha Carley Interiors. 🧡 If you’re ready for an update to your heart-of-the-home, she’s great to work with! Head over to Iantha’s stories for more pics. Hand painted glass backsplash by Billet Collins and Roberta Marovelli.

A moment for the backsplash…🧡 Our recent redesign of our client’s Alexandria kitchen included the addition of a wet bar complete with a mini wine cellar, open shelving, and the most stunning backsplash, which is actually reverse painted tile, designed by moi as an homage to David Hicks. I worked with the one-and-only to bring my concept to life, while the install was done by . It was so much fun to watch them at work — no detail was left forgotten!

Head to our stories to see behind-the-scenes photos of the install — a day to remember!

Designer Annie Elliott commissioned us to paint her kitchen backsplash. A challenging area for sure. This mural is painted on glass…BACKWARDS! The first step starts with the finest of details on huge panels of tempered glass: pupil of the bird’s eye, vein of a leaf, a gold highlight. You can see how complicated it is and definitely takes the talent and patience of an artist. Very proud to have worked with Annie Elliott Design and Roberta Marovelli on this beauty! 👩‍🎨Give us a call to talk about your backsplash!

This is my kitchen backsplash — a stunning piece of reverse painted glass called eglomisé. (Thank you, Billet Collins, for your artistic genius!) It was an investment, for sure, but boy was it worth it: this backsplash makes me happy every single day.

Please consider this a gentle reminder to invest in pieces you truly love that will last for years. Trust me: you won’t regret it. 😉💫
