Our Team


Russ and Rose Marie Brabec met the challenge of starting a prestigious Interior Design Firm over 25 years ago. After they looked in to starting the business, Design & More, they were told that the Tallahassee area could not support another Interior Design studio which only increased their drive to get it started. This bold move ultimately resulted in the foundation of Design & More, an award-winning firm that greatly fills the need left void by the market. The company motto still stands as it was when founded:

"Design is not a display of wealth, but an expression of imagination!"

After meeting with Russ and RoseMarie, I knew working with them on a project would be a great decision. The amount of thought that went into my project was phenomenal, and the outcome was beautiful. They have an extensive knowledge of draperies, window treatments, furniture, and basically every aspect of home design and decoration. I will be working with them on my future projects because I know how fantastic the results will be. -Drew, 8-3-2013
