About

  • The money you invest in your property is real, the process can seem opaque and at times intense. In an industry often clouded by ego and uniformity, it's easy for your needs to be overshadowed. The fear of missteps can leave you paralyzed.

    At S T U D I O 8 we think the process should be as straight forward as possible, and the end result should reflect you, not us. We begin by understanding your objectives and work through a step-by-step process to get you to a result that makes you happy. Throughout the design phase, we carefully curate a team tailored to bring your project to life. We think we are on to something because our business is made up of many repeat clients and their referrals.

    So, let’s get the conversation started…

  • After earning a bachelor's degree in Art History from Rutgers University, Tana Nesbitt-Hayes began her design career in the office of Geary Design in Naples, Florida, where she gained hands-on experience in all areas of design, from crafting custom rugs to designing modern homes. 

    She then pivoted, earning a graduate degree in Architecture, and working at the award-winning offices of Oppenheim Architecture, Shulman and Associates, and Rene Gonzalez Architects in Miami.

    In 2007, she opened her own studio in Miami, completing several multimillion-dollar projects before transitioning to NYC in 2010. Since then, she has continued to work on a wide range of projects for remarkable clients all over the world.
