Crystal Hollis, Interior Designer
Crystal considers high-end furniture to be fine art, saying it’s an investment that will be an heirloom someday. She notes that much of the furniture Slater’s carries is handcrafted or hand finished. “The beauty of the furniture is often in the finish, which can be up to a 28-step process,” says Crystal, who offers more than 20 years of interior design experience.

A Modesto native who has always had an eye for fine art, Crystal started her career designing visual store displays while attending college. She received her art and interior design education from a private interior design college in San Ramon and through Modesto Junior College.

She later spent several years lending her talents to her mother’s design business and showroom, where Crystal specialized in designing window coverings and helped clients select and purchase furniture. Her love for fine arts carries over into her hobbies such as watercolor, oil painting, mosaics, sculpture and photography, as well as landscape architecture and growing bonsai with the Modesto Bonsai Club.

“I enjoy getting to know my customers on a personal basis, which helps me to understand their lifestyle and design tastes,” Crystal says. “My goals are to transform each clients’ residence into the home of their dreams and to provide the ultimate in customer service.” Crystal looks forward to working with you every step of the way.
