Maybe you’ve landed here because you’ve received one of our iconic hats, or maybe you want one. Either way, welcome to Club 1986.
In 1986, Joni Burden started J. Banks Design with the help of the Melrose group and thus begun 40 years of excellent Club, Hospitality and Residential Design across the United States and World.
J. Banks’ first club and resort project was the Melrose Club on Daufuskie Island. From there came referrals through tight-knit business relationships across the country- golf cottages at Texas A&M to now having designed over 120 clubs including Monterrey Peninsula Country Club, Ohoopee Match Club, Old Palm Country Club and many other prestigious clubs.
We are now the oldest Club Interior Designer under a single owner in the country. Our expertise in Club design spans decades and aesthetics. No two clubs are alike in feel, membership and sense of place, and we endeavor to give every club the look that fully encompasses their unique identity.
J. Banks has designed some of the best resorts in Europe and the Americas, the best luxury homes, and the best in Clubs all inspired by Luxury without pretense and authentic resort living. Local Roots, international branches.
