Shereen Farahani Featured in McLean Magazine: Style Begins at Home
Premier Home Center is proud to share that founder and lead designer Shereen Farahani was recently featured in the September issue of McLean Magazine in an article titled “Style Begins at Home.” The feature takes a closer look at Shereen’s approach to interior design, her roots in Northern Virginia, and the philosophy that has shaped her work throughout the years.
Designing Homes That Feel Like Home
For Shereen, great design has never been about simply following the latest trend. It is about creating spaces that feel personal, functional, and timeless. As she shares in the article, “Timeless style is personal. It isn’t about copying someone else’s home. It’s about creating a space that’s authentic to you.” That philosophy is at the heart of every project at Premier Home Center. From the materials and finishes selected to the way a room flows and functions, thoughtful design begins with understanding the people who will live in the space. Layered lighting, natural materials, texture, meaningful artwork, thoughtful storage, and timeless finishes can all contribute to a home that feels elevated without sacrificing comfort or function.
A Northern Virginia Story
The feature also highlights a glimpse into Shereen’s personal connection to the community she has called home for much of her life. A Great Falls native, Shereen grew up surrounded by the natural beauty and close-knit community of Northern Virginia. Today, she continues to build her family and her business in the region. That local connection has played an important role in her understanding of the homeowners and lifestyles that make Northern Virginia unique. For Shereen, every family has different needs, priorities, and ways of living; therefore, every home should be designed accordingly.
Timeless Design, Personal Style
Lastly, the article describes Shereen’s perspective that the most impactful homes are not necessarily the ones that showcase the newest trends. Instead, they are the homes that continue to feel beautiful and relevant years later. Her design approach combines classic foundations with personality, incorporating elements such as natural materials, texture, lighting, artwork, and carefully selected finishes. As Shereen puts it, “Design has no boundaries and shouldn’t be confined by trends.” Her personal style? “Understated glam—with just the right touch of color.”
We are honored to see Shereen and her approach to design recognized by McLean Magazine and are grateful for the opportunity to share more of the story behind the designer, entrepreneur, and Northern Virginia native who continues to bring personalized, timeless design to homes throughout the region.
