With each project, Wintersteen endeavors to give dimension to her client’s creative vision by producing unrivaled results that exceed expectations. She finds joy in the small things – like demolishing worn, dated or distasteful rooms into piles of rubble that rise from the ashes into gorgeous kitchens, bathrooms and beyond.
A North County San Diego-based mother of five girls, Wintersteen is recognized nationally for her professional prowess and altruistic approach to design. Houzz gave Savvy Interiors its “Best of Houzz Design & Service” award every year since 2014, and hundreds of children nationwide have benefited from her generosity.

NEIGHBORHOOD: Carlsbad COMPLETION: 2022 BUDGET: $175,000+ • Typically, a black and white kitchen can be modern and stark. This kitchen played off contrasts. • By adding a textured, star-and-cross terracotta backsplash and a black-iron linear chandelier, Savvy balanced modernity with a Spanish influence consistent with the neighborhood’s Cali-Spanish homes. • Adding a little black to every room is quite grounding.

NEIGHBORHOOD: Santa Luz COMPLETION: 2020 BUDGET: $250,000+ • Using a smokey, blue-gray satin finish gave these cabinets more depth and contrast against a white oak floor. • Savvy used Spanish modern tiles sparingly to lend to an architectural match for Santa Luz, but did not want to get too theme-y. • By focusing on clean lines and small bits of texture, Savvy prevented a coastal look and kept true to the home.

In 2014, after making over the bedroom for a local teen who’d been diagnosed with cancer, Susan Wintersteen founded Savvy Giving by Design. The non-profit, which comprises a national network of professional interior designers, provides comfort, support and healing to families with a child facing a medical crisis by transforming the interior spaces of their homes at no cost to them.

A professional interior designer customizes each room to the child’s unique needs, optimizing for physical and emotional comfort. Since many of the children Savvy Giving by Design helps have compromised immune systems, are adjusting to new wheelchairs or have other specialized needs, the group focuses on design details that are not only beautiful but also work with these needs.

Unparalleled performance, classic design and internationally acclaimed – it’s the kind of trifecta rarely achieved by any one brand – much less two. But such is the case with Sub-Zero and Wolf. Family-owned and family-run for over three generations, this brand remains committed to refining and mastering the world’s finest refrigeration and cooking appliances. Built and tested to the highest standards, Sub-Zero is more than just refrigeration. It is a food-preservation system, with almost 70 years of innovative thinking behind it. Create a room where refrigeration stands out or, if you prefer, blends in. Built-in refrigeration comes with the classic stainless steel Sub-Zero look or finished in custom panels. Integrated units disappear into the décor, with neither hinge nor grille in sight. Like SubZero, Pirch also believes that the kitchen is where important moments happen; a place where memories happen –memories that can only occur when you share food and drinks with the people you love.
