ABOUT JOANNA + LIZ

Joanna Jones and Liz Slutzky were design colleagues, then friends, and now partners.   They founded Torus Interiors in 2018 with the intent to bring a full-service design experience to their clients.

Joanna’s love of interiors took root in her Texas childhood, with a mother who collected mid-century pieces, and a father who valued excellent craftsmanship. After graduating from Parsons School of Design, Joanna worked at Studio Sofield, learning from the brilliant William Sofield. After a year with Julie Hillman, Joanna founded her own eponymous firm J. Jones Design. Nominated to Luxe Magazine’s “Gold List,” Joanna’s work has taken her all over the tri-state area and beyond.

Liz brings experience in high residential renovation + design, with excellent project management oversight.   After her work with Joanna, she went on to serve as project director for the esteemed Damon Liss Design in Tribeca.  She continues to lead a special restaurant and hotel project on the East End of Long Island. After her work with DLD, Liz joined Terri Ricci Interiors. Both experiences had her overseeing multi-million dollar residential projects all over the country. Her fondness for the time she spent with Joanna inspired her to form Torus Interiors.
