HistoryLaPolla Painting and Designs Studio was founded in 1984 by John LaPolla Jr., an artist and educator born in New York City, raised on Long Island.
John has operated his business with his family for 25 years; a legacy for three generations. With a strong influence in construction from his father and his artistic and creative sense, he has developed a distinctive career in custom finishes and unique artistic designs. All of these elements have led the crucible that would unite John’s artistic talent and his company to its place in the world today.
John has designed color, pattern and texture to achieve extraordinary finishes from the words, inspiration and direction of clients, interior designers and architects from coast to coast for over 25 years. In addition, he is committed to the day to day objectives of LaPolla, one of the nation’s preeminent painting and creative finishing companies. With over 30 hand-picked employees, some with 20 years tenure, John continues to produce groundbreaking work in the finest homes throughout the United States.

Philosophy
Everything we see is light bouncing off an object. What comprises our view of the world is the outermost layers of any surface. Only a few fractions of an inch, then, add up to much of the color, texture and brilliance in life.
Our vision, passion, and commitment enliven our hands to develop unique finishes through our inspiration and collaboration with you. Our intention then is to create the look, feeling and experience you desire within your personal space.
“Surfaces, that is our realm, where we excel, since that is what art adheres to.”
