Designer: Angela Lee, ASID Allied Member
Some people know what they are destined to do because they feel it.? This is true for Angela Lee who is a native of East Texas.? Angela Lee started her college career majoring in architecture. However, after three years of architectural coursework, Angela?s passion for interior space planning, interior detailing, and all of the other creative aspects that contribute to design, inspired her to pursue a degree in Interior Design/Architecture because the two industries go hand in hand.? Angela graduated with a B.A. in Interior Design from the highly recognized Louisiana Tech University School of architecture and interior design.
With over 12 years of experience in the design industry, her career has consisted or working for residential as well as commercial companies.? In fact, one of her residential jobs consisted of her being a designer and assisting with the original startup and the establishing of the design criteria for the design center and models for a company based out of California (Royal Oaks/Sunrise Colony).? This community is considered one of Houston?s most exclusive gated communities. While working with this company full-time, Angela provided design services for many of her clients as well as new potential clients on a part-time basis on the weekends.? The demands for her services began to increase rapidly.? Angela?s services were sought for construction, renovations, floor plan drawings, decorating and complete design services for the enhancement of spaces.
After much persuasion, prayer and a complete leap of faith, Angela?s husband, William, encouraged her to pursue the business full-time because of the increased demand and the reputation that she had established in the design community. After much consideration and of course support from her husband, she and her husband, William Lee, originally opened Interior Evolution, which is now Evolution by Design, Inc., a full service Design company.
Angela is the principal designer of Evolution by Design, Inc. which provides design service to a diverse clientele in Houston as well as other cities throughout the United States.
Since embarking upon this endeavor, she has worked on several residential and commercial projects throughout the United States. Her clients? list ranges from new construction homeowners, CEO?s of corporations, ?universities, public and private schools, custom homebuilders, and? some of the A-List professional athletes.
Over the years Angela has created some of the most over the top designs that have not only intrigued the client but everyone that walked into the space. Her passion and love for design is often exemplified not only when she creates a custom floor plan or designs furniture for the space, but it illuminates throughout with every detail from accessories, window treatments and art that give character to the overall design.
Most of Angela?s clientele completely trust her and will tell her ?I would like to just walk in and have everything completed when I move in?. This is certainly a task that has been done on several occasions by Angela Lee and her team. The client has walked in and everything from furniture, window treatments, clothes in the closets, personal belongings, refrigerator stocked and everything they would need to move in is in its place. Her company Evolution By Design not only creates a total design, but she and her team creates an environment that is timeless, displays the clients? personality, taste and lifestyle. One thing that Angela always tells her clients? The easiest mistakes to correct are the ones on paper? Therefore, she makes sure she guides her clients in thoroughly reviewing every detail of their floor plan or the existing space to make sure their needs are accommodated? without losing the functionality of the environment. By addressing issues before construction, allows Angela to guide the client not to make costly mistakes.
Along with being an ASID allied member (American Society of Interior Designers), Angela has a membership with several organizations where she volunteers her time and her services. Two causes that are very dear to her heart and she has volunteered to support are breast cancer and Alzheimer?s awareness.
Although, Mrs. Lee has rubbed shoulders with some of Houston?s social elite and worked on some of the most beautiful homes and commercial interiors throughout the United States, she has always remained humble. ?Her true love is for her husband William, her family and of course, her close personal friends.
Someone once asked her what is the best part of being a designer and the answer has always remained the same. ?I love the reaction that my clients have upon completion of the project when they walk into the room for the very first time. The look on their faces isn?t worth any amount of money it is simply priceless.? I love what I do and my passion for the industry is shown in my respect, dedication, and above all integrity for the craft.?
Her energy, enthusiasm, and strong passion for design are not only reflected in her work, but they are embedded into her personality. ?Clients have described her as the little designer with the big ideas that can transform just about anything. Whether it is designing furniture, floor plans, or creating a space that fits her clients? personality, she exceeds expectations while giving clients an exceptional design experience.
