We really loved our experience working with Splendid & Swanky. They first staged our previous home…read morefor sale and did a lovely job integrating our existing furniture with fresh new options that really helped seal the deal. Once we moved into our new townhome, we needed help rethinking our previous style with the shape and dynamics of our new place. Newsha and Nahal were terrific, providing clever approaches to integrating our old furniture with new pieces and lighting that really showed the new place off at its best. What we appreciated most was their communication and collaborative spirit. We've worked with designers before who had no idea of what good customer service looks like, and we were delighted to have such an engaging and creative collaboration with these designers. They did push us a bit out of our comfort zone with some choices, but THEY WERE RIGHT. Some furniture we weren't sure about turned out to be the biggest hits in our new decor, drawing tons of compliments from our friends when they came for our housewarming. We'd work with Splendid & Swanky again in a heartbeat!

We had this company do the staging for our house on Capitol Hill before it went on sale and we were…read moreTHRILLED with the results. The pictures speak for themselves but I will mention a few things of special note. First, we had representatives from 3 different companies come to our house and quote. Anabella impressed us immediately with her comments and also that she did a walk-through of the house making a video, essentially making notes for herself, and perhaps her co-workers, about what might be brought in and where it should be placed. (Our movers had already taken our furniture away so it was perhaps easier working with an empty space.) Second, this company was slightly cheaper than the other two for the first month but the real difference is what happens if your house is not under contract after a month and you want to keep the furniture for a second month. The other two companies forced you to make a decision in advance as to whether you choose a one-month, or a two-month, contract. How can you know in advance how fast your house will sell. If you took the one-month option, keeping it longer was expensive, though I can't recall exactly how much. In the case of Staging Design DC, there is no need to guess in advance. If you have not sold your property, just tell them you need the furniture longer and it is 20% extra per month. Third, a really clever visual change was to arrange the living room furniture in a U-shape with the open end of the U facing toward the entry. It made the room seem significantly larger. We had a TV against the wall and the "U" the other way around so when you entered, you first saw the back of a chair. Fourth, a minor thing perhaps but the things they hung on the wall generally used hooks that were already there but they were all light so only small hooks were needed. One of the other companies wanted to hang a mirror. Mirrors of any size are heavy and so need a large drywall anchor to secure them which might be unsightly once the mirror is gone. You would have to hang something else there to cover it. When my wife first saw the house as the installation was being completed, she gasped and said, "I'm so happy!". You will be too.

She let us have a few extra days while we tried to work things out and did not add to the pressure. We ended up needing to extend another month and the fee for the extension was very reasonable.

Jokingly I asked could she design my unit exactly as she did the model. I say jokingly for two reasons... 1) I thought she only did commercial business. 2) If she did partake in residential work, I knew I would not be able to afford her services. Surprisingly, I was wrong on both accounts. I explained to her Im a single guy and I wanted to have a stylish home, but I have no sense of style and would be of no help lol... She told me not to worry and asked me what my budget was (lol which was scary cause I didnt have one) Here is how I knew Sonja was a professional and good at what she does. .... I am super indecisive and she made the process painless for me. She provided me with quotes and walked me through a few options. I ended up getting what she referred to as a turn-key ready unit. I liked to refer to it as.... pay the lady and let her work her magic lol... I LOOOOOOOOVE my condo...

Probably the best thing you can say about our original furniture is that it was eclectic. More truthfully, it simply didn't really look that great, pretty much a "before" project on what you'd see on HGTV. Once Vanessa and Michelle got through with it, the interior of the house was totally transformed. The first step was Vanessa came through the house with her contractor, Arlin, and recommended changes to be made, including updating ceiling fans, light fixtures, installing recessed lights, etc. We didn't do everything she recommended but we did most. Vanessa coordinated all of the contracting work done by Arlin and his team, and provided all the quotes. The prices for the various jobs were very competitive, generally cheaper than other estimates I received from other contractors. The bottom line is that the results speak for themselves. We received multiple offers and sold the house for $110K over list within 5 days for the highest price ever sold in our neighborhood. I couldn't have asked for much more than that. Attached are a few pics of the finished product. I definitely recommend using Inspired Home Design for updating and staging your home. I'm sure glad I did.
