A Dedicated Commercial Interior Design Firm for Los Angeles

A lot of well-known Los Angeles designers built their reputation on celebrity homes and treat commercial work as a side project. A true commercial interior design firm works from a different technical foundation — Title 24 energy compliance, ADA path-of-travel, acoustic separation between departments — not residential finishes applied to a bigger floor plan. Jean-Prescott Studio is dedicated entirely to commercial work across Los Angeles, so that scope is the default, not an occasional exception.

Ask what percentage of their recent projects were actually commercial, and check whether their portfolio leads with residential estates. A lot of high-profile LA firms are genuinely excellent at homes and noticeably thinner on commercial code knowledge — LADBS permitting, Title 24, ADA compliance. Jean-Prescott Studio's practice is 100% commercial workplaces across Los Angeles, which means that technical scope isn't something we're learning on your project.

More than most people expect, especially at LA's scale. A lot of commercial furniture dealerships build 20% to 40% distributor markup into every piece they recommend, which is where their "free" space planning actually pays for itself. Jean-Prescott Studio doesn't carry a furniture line, so the 15–22% trade savings we pass to Los Angeles clients comes from real wholesale pricing, not a discount off an inflated number.

We do, as part of the same engagement. We produce engineered CAD blueprints, Title 24 energy calculations, and ADA documentation, then manage submittal directly with LADBS. Most delays on Los Angeles commercial projects trace back to permit sets that weren't built to anticipate that review — we build ours to clear plan check the first time instead of reacting to a redline weeks into your lease.

Not if the designer actually plans for it. A media studio's editing suite and a law firm's boardroom need almost nothing in common architecturally — different acoustic ratings, different privacy thresholds, different technology infrastructure. Across Los Angeles, from Culver City production floors to Century City legal towers, we design each zone around how that specific team operates, rather than stretching one template across a whole floor plan.

Both — retail and corporate office work are separate core focus areas, not one squeezed in around the other. Whether it's a flagship storefront on Melrose or a corporate suite in DTLA, we handle the same Title 24 compliance, ADA clearances, and LADBS permit documentation regardless of which vertical the project falls into.

Before, if at all possible. We run pre-lease spatial feasibility test-fits to evaluate whether landlord work-letter terms, HVAC ducting, and structural columns actually fit your operational needs. A Los Angeles lease signed without that review often means a change order discovered mid-construction, which costs far more than catching the same structural mismatch in week one.

The same person. Jeannice Carrillo personally directs the spatial program, authors the 3D design models, oversees LADBS plan checks, and coordinates on-site with contractors across Los Angeles — there's no account manager relaying messages between you and whoever's actually doing the work, which matters most once a project moves from drawings to an active jobsite.

Call and talk to Jeannice directly — (949) 791-7178. No portfolio full of residential estates to scroll through, no rep standing between you and the person who'll actually design your space. From there we schedule an on-site discovery visit somewhere across Los Angeles, which is where the four-phase process begins. That first conversation doesn't cost anything and doesn't obligate you to move forward.
