Hello...I am Sonia Barney, Owner and Principal designer at Sonia Barney Design in Idaho Falls, Idaho. With a Bachelor's Degree in Interior Design and 16+ years of experience in design and construction, and while raising two autistic boys, I know firsthand what it is like to need balance between work and family responsibilities. Making sure there is enough time to enjoy life takes thoughtful planning of one's schedule and environment. Since opening my own design firm in 2015, I have made it my goal to share that knowledge and create tailor-made interiors for active families and bustling businesses.

We crave spaces that reflect our passions, offer sancturary, and help us work at our optimal level. It takes time and skill to curate such a place but isn’t life is too short to be weighed down in design details and construction oversight?

The SBD Design ProcessWhat to Expect at Each Step
|
We Know What You're Thinking...
Can an Interior Designer Really Help Me?
Yes! Interior Designers can make the difference in a remodel, renovation or new construction project. We have more than 20 years experience studying and working in the field. Your Interior Designer can deliver
- A stress-free process—we know the pit-falls and go-to solutions
- Quality and competence at every step—we can steer you in the right direction so you don’t unintentionally make costly mistakes
- Expert designs with longevity, functionality, and high satisfaction
Can't My Contractor Just Handle All the Design?
Contractors are essential, but their time is spent coordinating subcontractors, getting permits and ensuring the project is completed safely. Your Interior Designer
- Has a different set of skills and training
- Can customize the space to your styles and passions (there’s a reason why contractor’s houses look the same!)
- Helps you avoid one of the biggest mistakes—choosing furniture last (and having it not fit!)
Why Would I Hire Someone to Pick Paint Colors and Pillows?
While your Interior Designer does help you choose furnishings and colors, a professional designer is so much more than a decorator! Think of us as Interior Architects. We understand
- Structural and mechanical systems in your home that aren’t visible to you
- Cabinetry design and custom solutions that fit your unique needs
- How to create functional design with longevity and luxury
