Dawn provided detailed layout plans along with furniture, bedding, electronics, and artwork recommendations--all of which perfectly matched my style and lifestyle. Her guidance not only made the process easy, but it also saved me over $900. I truly got everything I asked for and more. Thank you, Dawn!

I had such a wonderful experience with Habitar when they updated my kitchen that, after recently…read moremoving, I decided to use them again to add an electric fireplace and shelving to a blank wall in my new living room. Their work did not disappoint! The designer was so helpful in transplanting my vision into a beautiful design plan within my budget. The workmanship is excellent and the workmen that did the instillation and painting were professional, diligent, and friendly. Everyone at Habitar from the owner, Mitch, to each person that works for him is helpful, thoughtful, and committed to doing good work. Having worked with them twice, I can confidently say that they are a delightful company to work with their work delivers beautiful results.

I hired Kristin to help me remodel my living room, change lighting and repaint my condo. I needed…read moreto brighten hallways, bedroom and utility closet. Kristin recommended the perfect fixtures as well as added lighting to a utility closet making it far more usable. The most dramatic change was in the living room. It had lighting around the perimeter but there was no electric in the center of the room so it was a dark space. Kristin had the brilliant idea of building beams to run along the ceiling and install dimmable lights in the beams. It changed the ambience of the room completely. That, along with new fixtures made my home much more livable. Her patience, good taste in wallpaper and paint colors and good choice of well qualified contractors contributed to a successful job. I would highly recommend Kristin Taghon Interior Designs for any project.

My wife and I had a great experience with Cadmium Interiors. We were looking to update our condo…read morewith fresh paint, some new lighting and a new backsplash. We couldn't decide what we wanted to do so we called in Jasmin and Kristin to help out. What I appreciated the most is that they took the time to understand our budget, our style and what we liked and didn't like about our condo. They made some great recommendations and came up with interesting ideas that we wouldn't have made on our own. They also listened to our ideas and were happy to go with some of our choices. Once we decided on the work we wanted, they helped us choose contractors and were happy to include one of our recommendations in the bidding process. Jasmin and Kristin took care of all of the logistics of the work, from ensuring the elevators were reserved to making sure the contracts had proof of insurance. They ordered all the parts and scheduled the contractors so that they were able to work together and weren't tripping over each other. It was amazing, I was so thankful that we got the whole condo painted, a new backsplash in the kitchen and lots of new lighting installed the week that my wife and son were out of town. The contractors were always on time, very professional and did a great job. We were very happy with Jasmin and Kristin and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Natalia came out to meet with me for a consultation at my home which was very informative and I was…read moreable to see a lot of the work that her and her team have done. She was able to look at my space and give a lot of helpful advice about Reno/design/layout ideas. She explained that they do high-end, modern clean, looking designs, but they also do all other designs as well ( like my traditional looking home). They do big and small projects and continue to work with the homeowner even after the project is done. I would highly recommend!

I've been working with Natalia on designing our new rental. Yes, you heard that right, a rental!…read moreWe'll be here for about three years, but I still wanted our place to feel like home. Natalia has been incredibly helpful in guiding us through big, impactful design decisions that are practical and thoughtful, while also keeping costs reasonable since we don't want to invest too much in a rental property. I also didn't want an interior designer to fully design every detail of the place. I wanted to be involved in choosing pieces myself, but have someone I could trust to advise me on whether things would actually work in our space, and Natalia has been perfect for that. I'll text her with questions about furniture purchases, design ideas, or even quick installation decisions when our maintenance guy is here, and she always responds right away. My husband is also very picky, but he has been genuinely impressed with her advice and with how our place has come together. I know Natalia takes on much larger and more expensive projects than ours, but I have never once felt like we were wasting her time. She has always been responsive, kind, and very professional. I highly recommend Natalia to anyone looking for practical, thoughtful design guidance that respects your time and budget. We'll definitely be working with her again on our next home project whenever we move.

Adina has helped me renovate and remodel several properties. The last one was a quick renovation…read morein August 2020 for one of my investment rental properties. When you look at the "before-and-after" pictures, it is clear that the results of her work are impressive, even with the extremely tight budget and schedule that we had to work with. Adina's designs show her passion and creativity for developing living universes, that people want to immerse and surround themselves with, as soon as they see them. When you see one of her designs, you immediately feel the desire to be in that space. She has an impressive gift to transform spaces in ways you cannot imagine beforehand, with color combinations you would have not imagined, but when you see the finished product, you love them because it is absolutely superb and pleasing. It simply feels good... I enjoy working with Adina as she is very talented, creative, honest and daring. She is direct and confident in her radical ideas, clear on expectations, and punctual. I was surprised a few times by some suggestions she made, that I thought would not look good (...what do I know?), but I trusted her, went with it, and found out they were the best solutions for the spaces we were renovating. I LOVED the outcome. I learned not to second-guess her ever again, and to fully trust her. Whatever she creates, is going to look and feel great in the end! She is a perfectionist with a budget in mind. Adina's designs are "out-of-the-box", on the leading edge of creativity in art, they are modern, daring, and well balanced. The color schemes she chooses are always exquisite, delightful to the eye, attractive to the mind, and relaxing to the heart and soul. Adina's portfolio is surprisingly vast with projects such as Village Market in Chicago, Google and Leo Burnett offices, ISI Headquarters as well as various residential and hospitality renovations. She led the design and implementation for the Village Market - a large commercial complex in the heart of Chicago. I saw it first in a pencil sketch, then in 2D. She continued to work and I saw the first 3 Dimensional rendering, and ... 3 years later, when I visited Chicago, she took me to a location that gave me the same exact view of the Village Market as I saw last time in her portfolio picture, only this time... it was the real thing (brick & mortar), beautifully executed by her to match the original vision. Adina is highly conscious and efficient when it comes to cost. She has hands-on knowledge of materials & costs, and she has developed a network of strategic partners in the industry, who can provide you promotional discounted prices and/or expedited deliveries to her clients. She is a pleasure to work with, she is well organized and always listens well to her clients, understanding their needs and wants. She told me that her main objective in business is to make sure -in any project- the end results will meet her client's goals: architectural, financial, and timeline. With a well-controlled and tight budget, she is making wonders. I highly recommend her and her work to anyone needing assistance with an architectural project. Whether is a simple garage addition, a Media Room, or more complex project that requires an artful & attractive (art-tractive) design, an interior face-lift, or something done in a cost-efficient way, and done quickly, Adina always has the best (and usually most unexpected!) solution. It is worth mentioning that you will still have money in the bank at the end of the project she designs for you! You will be happy to see how much life Adina will bring into your project. Adina's work is an enchanting mixture of harmony, balance, and creativity that meet in absolute beauty. I hope you get an opportunity to work with Adina on your next project so you can enjoy one of her truly uplifting transformations. Call her / write now!

We were in London when Martins did the rennovations on our home. We didn't know exactly what we…read morewere coming back to. We opened the door . . . and walked into paradise. We felt like we were in someone else's home. Someone who had a lot more money than us! Martins isn't just a builder, or a designer. He's an artist. When you bring someone into your home to change it forever, you have to trust that person. When Martins came by for our first free consultation (something other people had charged us for), he stayed for two hours. He wanted to get to know us, and figure out exactly what kind of home we wanted. To say he cares about his work is an understatement! Other people we looked at charged us for that first visit, came in, took measurements, were out in 30 minutes, and then provided some cookie-cutter recommendations. Besides his off-the-charts talent, he is honest, flexible, responsive and easy and fun to work with... not to mention reasonable. He even provided us with guidance and recommendations to bring the overall costs down. If you're looking to do renovations on your home, that not only are beautiful, but also unique and specific to you and your family, your search is over. Martins Buka will not only deliver, but exceed your expectations!

Not only did Nadia came up with beautiful and detailed concepts for our rooms but she incorporated our ideas and personalities into her art. We are extremely happy with her choices and artistic tastes. She is a masterful designer that takes her profession very seriously. It's easy to see she is studious of current trends and styles. Our house went from a typical suburban house to a high class home in a blink of an eye. Why I give 5 reviews? - Nadia offers a portal where the process is fully accessible and transparent. - Offers plenty revisions for the concepts she creates - Accepts several forms of payment - Sticks to the schedule - Fully managed the project, remotely and on site...including managing contractors for a worry-less experience for us. - Came plenty of times to location to supervise project, show us color pallets, fabrics etc... - Excellent choice of quality sources for furniture. - Stuck to budget and detailed us where every cent went. - Gave us an incredible experience throughout the process and was very kind and understanding.
