How long have you been in the industry?

Zoe: For about 35 years. Whereas I had the biggest part of my career was rearing up in here for the last 15 years.

 

What western theme are you into the most personally?

Zoe: My style is a very comfortable, sophisticated, western with a Texas and French overtones to it. I always have a little bit of western touch to all my work, whether it’s in Colorado or whether it’s here.

What was your favorite project and why?

Zoe: I’ve worked for a lot of Hollywood people but probably the most rewarding project I ever done, I did the restoration and interior design of the Hotel Jerome in Aspen Colorado. That’s probably the biggest feather in my cap really. But I’ve worked with some really wonderful people and had some gorgeous projects.
