After reading many reviews on the internet and interviewing several designers, we chose Sharon to…read moredesign our whole home remodel. We live out of state so we were really focused on selecting a designer who could not just create an incredible design, but would also work with the builder to insure the execution was in line with her vision. We are so happy with all that Sharon has done for our home. Her attention to detail really made the difference. There are several good designers in North County but Sharon just goes the extra mile to insure it's perfect. We love our home. Ron B.

Unfortunately we had an awful experience with Jaki and cannot recommend her work at all. There were…read morered flags from the beginning but we wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt. Please don't make our mistake. Ultimately, Jaki did not understand our vision and kept pushing her design preferences on us. We had to fully create our own PowerPoint deck with reference photos to get our ideas across room by room; source our own tile (when she claimed the design we wanted didn't exist in the tile we wanted); ordered the wrong quantity of products; among many other issues. Additionally when we chose not to use her preferred contractor, she became even more difficult to work with. She claimed she didn't know how to use IKEA's closet building tool to help us build our master closet, was always running late to our meetings; nor did she know how to use Gmail to schedule said meetings. Due to COVID and vendor supply issues our renovation took much longer than anyone expected. But the most egregious and unprofessional behavior was when she quit the job BEFORE any of the fixtures she ordered were even installed. She literally took our money and ran. We were still in the middle of our renovation and had been project managing the majority of the work ourselves. To reiterate-- we paid Jaki in full for her services but she would not even honor returns or exchanges for products that we DID NOT install (because they didn't end up working in our space and were misrepresented in the renderings). In the end, we had to go directly to the vendor ourselves, who graciously honored the exchange given that we had such a terrible time trying to get that through Jaki. The whole experience has been extremely disappointing and we would not recommend her services.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS We cannot recommend Hide Studio or Hanin…read moreSmith in any way. What started as an exciting project that we patiently saved for turned into one of the most frustrating and expensive experiences we've ever had with a business. Hanin presents herself as professional, caring and passionate but in reality is quite opposite. She lacks accountability, is dismissive, and refuses to address concerns. Instead, she twists things around and makes personal jabs. She basically WASHED HER HANDS with us once we raised concerns and dissatisfaction with our room after the install day. From the beginning, there were red flags regarding transparency and communication. Despite our concerns, we trusted Hanin and Dominique to execute our vision. I provided an organized, detailed list of items- including dimensions, rooms, how many etc. based on my prior experience working in an interior design studio. I specifically emphasized the need for performance fabric (due to a cat, dog, kids and entertaining) and appropriately scaled furniture. These were the two main reasons we hired professional designers. This should of made it simple to have all the specifications. Yet, despite clear requests, they IGNORED OUR SPECIFICATIONS and delivered items that didn't align with what we desired. So once we raised concerns, instead of taking responsibility or trying to come to some resolution, they hid behind rigid, one-sided policies rather than making an effort to correct or make things right. Hanin repeatedly DEFLECTED BLAME and refused to engage in a reasonable discussion about solutions. Her only offer was to buy back items at a fraction of what we just paid- but only if we spent even more money ordering replacements through her. NO THANK YOU. Major Issues We Experienced: * Payed over 50% for window treatments we never received. Hanin canceled the labor, but we never received the fabric and hardware. * Spent $2000 on accessories during install day that we never saw before or approved. They were boxed up as Hanin delayed pickup for weeks. We returned 90% of them and still have not received the credit. She also charged pick up & restocking fees. She kept pulling money out of the credit we had through wire transfer. * Received a sofa in the wrong size. We payed for a 98"L x 35"H x 41"D, but what arrived was 94"L x 31 'H x 39"D. The back skirt was also defective. When we addressed the issue, Hanin claimed WE MEASURED IT WRONG and refused to fix it. We had no choice but to buy another sofa from elsewhere, which added unnecessary costs. *Ordered a sofa table that would of been 2" taller than the back of the sofa that came in too short. When we tried to cancel due to the backorder and other sizing issues, she only refunded 50%. * A coffee table that we now have to sell at a loss. The color is completely off and doesn't coordinate with anything in the room. *Four Lounge chairs that are comically short. We should have double checked whether Hide Studio actually honored our specifications for PERFORMANCE FABRICS AND CORRECT SIZING. Instead, Hanin's response was, "You approved them." But isn't it a designer's job to ensure client requests are met and that the room looks like a professional did it? * Two side sofa's that we assumed were in performance fabric turned out to be dry clean only. One of our biggest priorities in hiring a designer was sourcing durable, easy to clean fabrics that could withstand pets, kids, and everyday life. Despite emphasizing this need, Hanin provided sofas that are not performance fabric at all. We found they are grade S. Now, our cat has already marked them with his nails (with trim and caps), and we need to cover them every day just to prevent further damage. This completely defeats the purpose of investing in new furniture. *Paid over $3600 in warehouse fees and never received a breakdown or clear invoicing. After multiple attempts to resolve these issues fairly. Hanin has been unwilling to negotiate in good faith. We even attempted mediation- which was clearly outlined in the contract- but she outright DECLINED. She said we were harassing her. At this point, our only option is legal action. The lack of professionalism, responsibility and customer service is STAGGERING. I really tried to avoid writing a negative review and hoped that she would come to some kind of resolution after many months. We would of been happy with getting partial buy backs and returning the items that weren't right but that was never an option she gave us. I feel compelled to share our experience to help someone else avoid this situation. If you are looking for a designer who truly listens, respects their clients and takes accountability, LOOK ELSEWHERE. There are plenty of talented and ethical designers out there that wont leave you fighting for refunds on misrepresented items or bad design. Do yourself a favor and avoid this firm. If we can help just a few people then this review will be worth sharing.

I got the opportunity to work with Kate Griffin on an organization job that I needed for my home. I…read morecontacted her one week & she scheduled our appt. for early the following week. Which was such a breath of fresh air in this very active real estate market. Being a Realtor. I know all companies that are associated with real estate are experiencing lots of volume so that was very quick considering the market. To be honest I was in such need of moving this project forward. What a wonderful blessing we got started right away! I had moved into a new home and with the exception of a desk/chair and a bed. I only brought items that fit in a box. Or went in the closet. I initially contacted Blythe so I can get a design to get some furniture etc. but I had boxes all around the parameter of my home and couldn't get to the design until we went through all the boxes and had everything organized and put away. Over the years we can accumulate so many items that are so precious. IE: just to name one category. I had been saving a variety of keep sake items from over the years that were also in cardboard boxes and felt stuck not knowing what to do with them. I didn't know where to start. When Kate arrived she rolled up her sleeves and got to work. We opened every box and went through absolutely everything. She made what looked so overwhelming a breeze. She was able to help me discern what to keep and what to purge. I had a hard time parting ways with items I hadn't used in I can't even remember the last time I had used them. I even had kept boxes from vacuums and other appliances that she kindly pointed out were taking up space that we could use to organize other items in. Apparently, I needed the permission to get rid of it. Which when I did get rid of them. It felt freeing! We sorted through all sorts of items. Anywhere, from a variety of keep sakes (my daughter trophy's, various photos, bday and holiday cards I had collected over the years), office supplies, to electronics (she helped me discern what to keep - and what to recycle - phew - so nice to know you can recycle electronics), kitchen cabinets, cleaning supplies, cleaning appliances in a closet, to paperwork that needed to be shredded and had piled up over time (which I got done), misc. bathroom items, linen closet to labeling. By the time we were done it was after 6pm and we had lot of empty cardboard boxes to recycle. Even though she had been here for 4 hours on a intense and detailed job.... with a mask on... On a hot day. She wanted to ensure she didn't leave any task for that day not completed. She offered to help me break down and take out every last box (I live on the 3rd floor) which we did. Then we scheduled an appt. for the next day so we could get some containers etc. to efficiently organize the items. Bye bye cardboard boxes. What started off as a 3 hour process. Ended up being a 9 hour job over a span of 3 days. I'm so grateful Kate was available 3 days in a row to keep the flow of the process going. I can go on and on. When you don't know where to start it's sure great to have someone who is a professional organizer help you. Kate is experienced, professional, amazing, friendly, funny, jovial and someone you will feel comfortable having in your home.
