It is almost impossible to build an award winning house right out of the gate. I understand that his exclusivity may cause some disappointment to perspective clients.

John has not only worked so closely with us through every step of the build, but Christy with John Mark also helps relieve some of the anxiety with helping her customers chose the best products for their house and what will go with what. John is very professional, and at the same time you always feel like your talking to a friend. He knows we have a certain budget to work with, and always tries his best to stick to it, or work the subcontractors down. I can tell everyone respects him and his quality of house building when talking to different contractors he has worked with. Our house is almost done and we are so excited to show off our finished product! Brittany Garcia

I cannot stress enough how creative and understanding she is and a joy to work with. We had quite a few items we wanted to keep and asked that she incorporate them into other items that she purchased for us. Every room from the guest rooms, dining room, LR, kitchen, owners suite she added items and her own creative touches to make our entire house so comfortable. We have been so pleased with her work and would highly recommend her to others that need to have someone place that one object you love in a special place as she did for us. We were not disappointed with her and would definitely request her services again.

I'm so proud to say we will be able to put the car in when Nicole is done. I thought I had good ideas about organizing and cleaning up but Nicole's got me beat!

When I explained to her how embarrassed I was with all of the accumulation, she assured me that there was no judgment and there certainly was not. I'm over the moon with her skills and attention to detail. She's great on following through and keeping you up-to-date. She is always on time with a huge smile on her face!

She really listens to your ideas and gets to know you and learn about your style and likings. She presents options that are very artistic, functional, and practical. She is also very good at giving ideas so we could shop on our own and then guide us on the selections that we made. She has a great eye for detail and really helped out with the placement of pieces that made everything come together. She will do personal shopping with you or for you and has good connections for installations, refurbishments, and contractors if needed. At the end of the project, she was instrumental in making our house feel like a home.

They all had the matching granite, but Design Alliance was the least expensive and the most helpful.

Best of all, the owner and the staff were so easy to work with and we couldn't be more pleased with their superior service. Highly recommended!

Look no further than Shannon Colvin Matteson's Embur Interiors. This girl knows What is really What. (Did I just break out a Digable Planets reference? For real? Okay, I'm truly Old.) I've worked with Shannon on a couple of events, small and large-scale, and the best way to put this, I suppose, is to say that I'm thoroughly impressed. Her work ethic is detail-oriented and a little exhaustive (not a bad thing), she's on time or early, and she's exceptionally creative. Like some of the better choreographers and directors I've worked with in the arts, Shannon just has an eye for her craft; one minute she'll be wandering a space, calculating, and the next she has what can only be described as a Vision: This is how it Should Be. I'd like to do This. Here's Why. What do you Think? Even if you're only considering a remodel, or bringing in some expertise for a festival or celebration, you should ask for a consultation. She'll open your eyes to the stuff the rest of us literally cannot see.

He was easy to work with, welcomed my input to the design, and allowed me to personalize my project. Definitely, I'll work with him again. Before I committed to work with him, I spoke to multiple references who used Marc on their projects.

One person said they hosted an Oscar party just to show off their new kitchen to friends and neighbors. Marc did a fantastic job remodeling my last kitchen with custom cabinets. The granite countertops and the stained glass backsplash gave the kitchen a great look. I was so impressed with the kitchen remodel that I had Marc remodel both bathrooms. Here also we used custom cabinets, along with features like a deep soaking tub and a beautiful tiled shower in the master bath. I have since moved, but will definitely use MCD for my next remodel.
