Jeff Justice grew up in West Virginia helping his grandparents reupholster furniture, paint, hang wallpaper, lay flooring and rearrange rooms. He studied graphic design at Marshall University, then moved to Houston.
He began as a design associate at Restoration Hardware, then joined Corbin Young Design as a designer, carrying projects from concept through CAD drawings and specifications alongside architects, builders and trades. At Design Within Reach he was the Houston studio's top account executive and its first to rank in the company's national Top 50. He founded Jeff Justice Design in 2017.
Since then he has kept one foot in the trade: managing designer accounts at Stark Carpet, consulting on luxury furnishings at Cantoni, serving as resource librarian at Rottet Studio and Central US sales manager for Rottet Collection, and most recently representing luxury furniture, lighting, textile and wallcovering lines to architects and designers across Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma.
For clients, that means a designer who knows the showrooms, the workrooms and the reps by name, and who can tell you honestly what will hold up in your home.
