Nona Hosseini
Growing up, Nona was raised in an entrepreneurial family. For her major in college, she chose to go to one of the top 5 schools for architecture and to be trained by the best. She started by designing shopping centers with her father‘s firm for a couple of years until she moved to Cyprus to support her Mother’s financial company. After a year, she moved to the US for the pursuit of bigger dreams and a happier life. This is when she met Navid Derakhshan. Nona was supportive of Navid’s dream from day one. With a successful company and the well sought after brand of Outdoor Makeover & Living Spaces, she joined the company and contributed to the company’s needs. Architecture is her passion, so she is involved in designing and supporting other designers with 3D modeling. Just one short month after moving to the states, she met Navid and 4 years later got married. Not one day goes by where she isn’t helping with the alignment of the company’s vision to deliver the best quality, design, and experience to our amazing clients here in Atlanta.
