Additional projects have included several North Bay area estates, a private estate on the Island of Indian Creek, design of a custom home in Golden Beach; and an "in house" loft development project in Washington D.C.

In 1998, Janet relocated to California to work directly with Cher on the construction and every aspect of the design, material specification, and architectural details of the star's exclusive estate in Malibu. During this time, Janet developed her own signature line of ceramic tiles that are produced and distributed through Janet Bussell, Inc.
