Who We Are
Susan Hall is Principal and Founder of Susan Hall Studio, which she launched in Boulder, CO, in 2012.
Hall began her design journey through the study of art, graphic design and photography. Being a first generation American, Susan’s European sensibility informs and enhances her projects. Having worked for multiple art museums and lived abroad in London and Greece, she has traveled extensively throughout the world. She also finds inspiration through nature’s masterly nuance of texture and color. Susan reveres well-crafted product design and is a self-admitted Historic home tour junkie.
Hall has also lived in great cities, such as New York City (twice) and Los Angeles, which have influenced her design education deeply. She thinks architects are just as cool as rock stars, and has worked with many talented ones in Colorado over 10 + years. Susan calls Boulder’s historic district home and is currently renovating a new “old” Mid-century house in South Boulder located on open space — a lifelong dream, where she finally has a painting studio to call her own.

Her talented staff consists of Cristin Hanson, who manages projects for SHS. Cristin has a background in buying and merchandising for apparel and home goods stores. She and her husband Erik moved to Boulder in 2021 after years of bouncing between New York and California. They have two young boys and a hound dog named Winnie. (Seen on right.)
Anna Pilipuf is a 3D rendering and drawing specialist who graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2020 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history and a certificate in studio art. Her special interest in passive design strategies practiced by ancient civilizations inspired her to pursue a second Bachelor of Arts in interior design with an emphasis on sustainable design at the Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design. She lives in Boulder with her partner Romeo and their adorable dogs.
