Patrician Design

This is a delightful shop! It's full of handmade art and amazing treasures made by local artists! The selection includes ceramics, home goods, jewelry, cards, art and more. I really recommend this place to anyone!!!

Wait a minute... I'm the first to review this place? For shame. Okay, breathe. No pressure.Over many, many years I've purchased a bevy of goods, usually gifts, from Patrician Design. I honestly think I shopped here far more frequently when the Flamenco Institute was around (queue the weepy violin music), since I often found myself just milling around Gold street, and I'd spot the shop and think to myself, "Oh, it's almost so-and-so's birthday" or "I haven't sent my sister anything for a while," and invariably I'd find a one-of-a-kind winner at Patrician Design. From unique stationary to hand-made greeting cards and vibrant decorations and knick knacks, there's always plenty of small stuff worth checking out around here at a reasonable price.But it's the bigger stuff that catches my eye and keeps me gazing. The local artist collection rotates somewhat frequently and it's always very impressive, especially colorful, the kind of work that leaps from the wall. I've seen fascinating furniture, some terrific jewelry (usually modern) and plenty of holiday-themed merchandise when 'tis the season. Oh, and I've never been put off by the employees, who take a somewhat distanced approach. Sure, they're happy to chat, but otherwise they'll leave you to peruse. If you haven't visited, or it's just been a while, it's worth another visit. This stretch of Gold street is great to mill around, these days.

This store has been a favorite of mine for a long time. Wonderful local business with great gifts for everyone.

When one visits Patrician Design, the first thing one notices is color - engaging color. You cannot help but feel uplifted by the colorful merchandise displayed artistically throughout the store. The merchandise is whimsical, useful, beautiful, and purposeful. Local and regional artists are frequently highlighted and many one of a kind pieces can be found on the walls and shelves. The inventory changes frequently and there is something for every price range and every type of customer - from the visiting tourist to the collector looking for the next addition for their collection. If you need design services, there is none better than Patrician Design. The sense of color in the store is the sixth sense that owner Patti Harrell Hoech brings to any project. She also brings wisdom and design understanding for commercial and residential applications. Continuity of theme is the starting point with Patrician Design in each of their projects. The use of color can be restrained (neutrals) or riotous as a summer garden in full bloom. Whatever the client's needs, Patricia Design provides comprehensive, professional design consultation. One does not have to be in the Albuquerque area to experience Patti Hoech's insight. Whether in California or Minnesota, Patrician Design delivers the design concepts, furniture, color schemes, swatches, and samples to satisfy the client and create a uniquely professional or personal space.

Patti is very knowledgeable in both interior and exterior design. She works with everyone's budget and is always there to answer any questions or concerns. Great staff always polite and eager to help!

Great design !!! Patti is very creative and down to earth. We had our house remodeled and she gave us great pricing with huge discounts! I highly recommend this company:).

Horrible! The store is fine but do not use their design services. I spent $30,000 (on a $20,000 budget) and my house still isn't what I wanted. The owner is flighty, expensive, and does not stand behind her services.
