JACKSONVILLE, FL –
As part of its commitment to customer satisfaction and flexible contemporary interior design, Providence Homes is proud to announce the opening of its new Design Center in its main offices at 4901 Belfort Road.

"The new and cutting edge Design Center provides further support to the growing number of homeowners choosing Providence in the area," said Donna Stanton, Interior Designer for Providence Homes. The new department will help meet the growing demands of our clients, she said.

Providence Homes has grown into one of the leading custom builders in North Florida. "I've been with Bill Cellar, [company president] for the last seven years," Stanton said. "It's great to see his company grow the way it has."

The Design Center is a wonderful new facility, designed to be user friendly. "It allows clients to really see what Providence Homes has to offer without them being overwhelmed by too many products and options," Stanton said.

Providence Homes emphasizes the connection between the physical home and the needs of the family who lives there. "We're able to bring together the best qualities in interior design today and blend that with the architectural
emphasis Bill puts into each home," Stanton said.

She says there's more to a home than four walls and a roof. "The interior design, products, and materials all work together to enhance the pleasure you get from our homes."

Homeowners will meet with Stanton by appointment only in The Design Center. "When I sit down with a client, we start with the outside, the first impression," Stanton said. "You want your home to be wonderful and beautiful and I help with that."

>From there Stanton takes clients through their choices in the kitchen. "The kitchen is your entertainment centerpiece, if you will." Providence Homes helps with features as diverse as granite islands to tiled backsplashes to glass doors on the cabinets to dramatic lighting options.

The options for the bathrooms and flooring throughout the house are as versatile as the eleven First Coast communities where Providence Homes now builds.

The Center features everything from choices of carpet and tiles, laminates for the countertops, and vinyl floorings, to the many faucet styles for the kitchen and bath. "We offer wood floors in place of carpeting, or even tile," she said. "Tile in the main living areas is currently quite popular," Stanton said, "with clients using bound area rugs as accents."

Providence Homes was founded in 1992 by company president, Bill Cellar. As Providence Homes celebrates their Tenth Anniversary, Bill Cellar continues to build upon the philosophy that homeowners deserve the best he can give. The Jacksonville-based company is currently building award-winning homes in 11 communities on the First Coast. Providence communities include Eagle Harbor, River Hills Reserve, Northglen, Queen¹s Harbour, Windsor Chase, The Cove at Rive St. Johns, Marshwinds, Westgate, Pine Crossing, Sawmill Pointe, and Shirley Oaks.
