Testimonials

Susan listened to our ideas and, keeping in mind our budget, presented us with interesting, affordable and unique ideas. From the very beginning she guided us through the difficult process of the remodel and helped keep us on track with the timing of each phase of the project. She met each challenge with a smile on her face and always showed complete professionalism in dealing with the contractors and vendors who were working on our house.

As we sit back and enjoy our home, we know that its beauty is due in good part to your vision and expertise. We have received wonderful compliments from family, friends and neighbors. We highly recommend you and your services to anyone looking for quality, style and creativity for their home…
