what’s in a name?
Beams represent strength, structure, support and the balance that keeps us safe and secure. Blooms represent beauty, color, life and the delight that brings us joy. So, beam&bloom™ is, in a name, the balance and delight that we aim to bring to every space that we design.

We support several community organizations, including public schools, parks, and food pantries. We regularly donate to Hunter’s World, American Civil Liberties Union, Everytown for Gun Safety and Feeding America and we continue to expand our outreach.
About The Owner…
Noel Gatts, Founder & Principal Designer, has had the opportunity to creatively serve a myriad of clients with her spunky, character driven approach to design since launching beam&bloom interiors, and is now a Designer/Host on HGTV with her buddy, home inspector Joe Mazza, in a new hour long renovation show, What’s Wrong With That House? ! For a bit of back story, Noel and her husband began their NYC adventure as touring Singer/Actors, but once their second…then third child came along, it was no longer the lifestyle for them. Fortunate to have the funds, the support and a healthy family (thanks to a serious miracle surgery for their middle guy), her family purchased their 3 bedroom 1941 colonial "fixer upper" in Essex County, New Jersey. Thus, the home design adventure began! The mission? …to create heart+home+harmony for her clients and her community.

Testimonials
“Noel is probably one of the most patient and productive home professionals we’ve ever worked with. She not only listened to what we were hoping to create but she understood the look and helped us formulate it with clarity. She is resourceful and pragmatic and delivers with reliability and an upbeat attitude that is so important since design can be stressful! Not only are we satisfied with our experience with her but we keep coming back for more! Thanks Noel!!”
“When we put our house up for sale, we wanted to show our home in the best possible light. We needed a home stylist to help us solve some of our tougher spots - places in our home that had never functioned well and always looked messy. Noel effortlessly transformed chaotic corners into serene, functional spaces. Her brilliant stylist’s eye can see the potential in every room, whether she’s making big changes or subtle shifts. Now that I’ve experienced the beautiful, airy calm she helped us find in our home, I will definitely be looking to her when we set up our new house!”
“I love to decorate and for the 1st time, I seemed to hit a wall with what I wanted to do with my space. I reached out to Noel and within 24 hours, received lots of great ideas along with the links to purchase items she was suggesting. One of her ideas (to have a cabinet built in next to my fireplace) was brilliant! Highly recommend Beam & Bloom. Noel loves what she does and it shows!”
“Noel came in after a remodel. Our goal was to keep what we love and replace the rest on a budget. She suggested a great mix of hi-lo style. Noel makes everything we have seem new again and finds new pieces that look like we’ve had them forever. Highly recommend for her professionalism, promptness and taste!”
“Noel is fantastic! She listens closely and aligns with our vision. Noel was very easy to work with, great communication and overall, just a sweet person!”
“It has been a pleasure to work with Noel and Beam & Bloom. We have found her very intuitive and able to articulate our desired aesthetic in ways that we are simply not able. She is responsive, accommodating and most importantly, makes the process simple and stress free. We look forward to working with her on the rest of our home.”
“Noel has helped us on two occasions so far. We truly appreciate how she works with our style and budget to help us transform our home, and we hope to enlist her help again in the future!”
