We worked with Edam who is wonderful…read more I felt like they delivered in abundance of what was promised and helped me get my project off the ground in a very organized way I will probably use them again when I'm ready for part two of my renovation!

IDF Studio and specifically our designer Blaire Schenck transformed our home in 2025…read more We found IDF online and liked what we saw on their web site. Their interior design work was so tasteful and made such great use of color; it really appealed to us! We contacted them and soon had an initial phone call with the founder and CEO, Kassin Adelman. Soon after, everything started unfolding nicely. I think we contacted them in May last year and the project was 98% finished just before Thanksgiving. Blaire was assigned our project and we had the best time working with her. We wanted work done on the whole interior, except the kitchen and bathrooms. She asked us a lot of questions to get to know us and she and another staff member (Callie) took measurements (tons of measurements) to be used for CAD drawings. We had a few Zoom meetings where Blaire shared initial and then more developed designs with us. We received documents to approve purchases (that they handled). We used their recommended contractor (R5, Emerson Duque) for painting and lighting upgrades, fireplace remodel, new closet doors, etc. The contractor and his team were the best we've ever worked with. Blaire's designs were amazing. So beautiful and fun and unique to us. We are big fans of music and cycling and color and art. Blaire worked these themes into our home so beautifully! Her design and use of our art and photos was spectacular. We have to mention her emails- they were wonderful. So complete and full of ideas and options and explanations. And always kind and positive (and funny!). We went into the project a little unclear as to how much we would need to spend, and also unclear as to the scope of our project. We had an initial budget in mind but wound up going over. However, what we got was so worth it. We have no qualms whatsoever about increasing our budget to get such nice work done. Lara in purchasing was also amazing to work with. Just like Blaire- always helpful and cheerful and responsive. We are extremely happy we hired IDF Studio to turn our home into a space so unique and beautiful. 100% recommend.

Florence did an incredible job selecting colors for the interior of my new home. Her selection of…read morecolors truly transformed the interior of the home. She was wonderful to work with throughout the process. She was very consultative, caring and engaging. Florence would make color suggestions and listen intently to how I felt about each color and then she'd adjust the colors for each room accordingly. Florence visited the home numerous times throughout the color selection and painting process - before, during and after the painting was completed to ensure everything went smoothly. She worked closely with the painter to make sure that the colors selected for each room worked well together, and that the painter was well versed with the color selections. Florence is extremely talented and hardworking, and she was passionate about ensuring that I was thrilled with the final outcome, which I was. I would highly recommend Florence for anyone seeking to transform the interior of their home.

Florence is terrific. I picked her due to the great reviews online to help me choose a color for my…read more2 bedroom apartment. Because I was trying to keep to a budget, I wanted to select one color that worked in every room regardless of the different lighting. Florence arrived early, with large samples and knew exactly what I would like based on the inspiration pictures on my phone. I also happened to have a painter at the apartment at the same time who was pricing out the job and she briefed him on everything I needed so that I wouldn't have to. Not only that, but she made sure that I was getting a fair price for the labor and paint, which was not something she had to do. I completely trusted Florence and you can tell that she really cared that I would be happy with the results. The color we chose is gorgeous and I couldn't be happier. I'd hire Florence again in an instant.

I definitely recommend Prevalent Projects. Their in-store and support customer service is beyond…read moreexcellent. I have specifically been working with Andrea, who has patiently answered a constant peppering of questions. The one question she didn't know the answer to offhand was thoroughly researched and followed up on. She also presented multiple options based on my room requirements in a custom PDF with photos, layouts, dimensions, fabric selections and prices in an easy to understand format -this is priceless in a world where too many choices can least to analysis paralysis. Regarding their products, they are one of the few companies that prioritize non-toxic and sustainable solutions. The furniture is built to last and very worth the investment. My only grievance is that I want it all and my small home won't allow me to!

Couldn't be happier that we wandered into Prevalent Projects in downtown Mill Valley one afternoon…read morenot long after closing on our home a couple years ago. Their curated selection of furniture and decor is fantastic--call it "Japandi" or "Scandanavian" or "Artisan," "Clean, contemporary"... it's all thoughtfully designed and beautifully made. Love the focus on sustainability, and the selection of *washable* luxurious fabrics. And Julia and Floyd have been so incredibly helpful. They have a knack for picking out exactly what we want--before we have any inkling. Their eye for design has saved us so much time and earned us so many compliments.

Can I give 6 stars? Corine is the loveliest human and is so, so talented. I 100% recommend anyone…read morethinking about it to reach out to her! Working with her is a delight in every way. She is easy and fun and pours everything into her projects and relationships. We had such a hard time working with our contractor on our reno, and I was so grateful for all of my time and back and forth with Corine because she, by contrast, was a dream. I honestly don't understand how any human can be so good at paint colors. What on planet earth is harder than paint colors!!?! Corine has this incredible talent for it -- she would flip through a deck (nay, decks!) and immediately narrow down to a few choices and then every single time for us, the perfect color was in there. One of my favorite things about how our renovation turned out and the thing I got the most compliments on is our paint colors. It's super clear that Corine loves design and something really cool about her is she wants her clients to have exactly what they want. Her tastes aside (she beautiful taste, obviously), she's just not one of those designers who only has one look/one vibe. She can deliver on anything and make it look amazing. I would work her again a million times over and had to come and leave a review. If your hesitant about working with a designer (as I was) give Corine a try and thank me later haha

We purchased our home in 2014 and have used CM Natural Designs on two separate occasions - for…read moredesigning services/furniture/paint as well as for two total bathroom renovations. To say we would use her team in the future is an absolute guarantee. When doing our research on designers, we knew we needed someone who was confident in their design aesthetic but flexible with ours, mindful but creative with budget considerations, and a brand/company who was passionate, professional, and hands-on - this IS CM Natural Designs. From the moment we decided to move forward, Corine and her team were ready and available to answer all of our logistical/design questions - they were professional, worked with our deadlines, SUPER organized, and the attention to detail was always evident in everything she and her team did. For our master bathroom, she helped us envision the look and feel and manipulated the space/design to reflect that. We wanted ours to be a complete juxtaposition between masculine (industrial look and feel of bathroom hardware and shower door) and feminine design elements (brushed gold details/decorative lighting). To say this was accomplished would be an understatement. We LOVE our bathrooms. The whole experience with CM Natural Designs, from start to finish, was as effortless as any renovation could possibly be. As there are ALWAYS bumps in the process of any renovation (i.e. contractor issues, unexpected costs, ect.), Corine and her team took ownership of our project and handled it with poise and professionalism from start to finish. We will absolutely use her team in the future and cannot recommend her company enough.

They were very thoughtful in listening to our input and considering our style while also pushing us to elevate our style. We are delighted by the end result of the design work - our house looks incredible as a result of their work and feels very much an expression of our family. We very much look forward to continuing to work with Kress and Denise in the future. Kress and Denise were very patient with our busy work schedule and made the experience as easy as possible by being onsite to help arrange for furniture delivery or to oversee any work by contractors. We feel so lucky to have such a wonderful area for our baby to grow up in and to play in as she grows up!

I absolutely love my interior decorator, Kress Jack. She is…read morestylish, friendly and very helpful! I was referred to her by a friend of a friend. I visited the home that she recently decorated and fell in love with the interior design. Kress definitely has her own sense of style but she will work with you to adapt your look and feel. Luckily she and I have similar tastes so it's been easy to work with her. She is also very reasonable. She does not try to upsell you -- let her know your budget and she will work around it. She also has connections with many vendors and can provide you with her discount so that you are paying wholesale prices. This is especially helpful with lighting and furniture stores. She is also based out of Mill Valley but has many clients in San Francisco. Check out my pix to see some before and after looks. I'll post more as I complete my apartment renovation.

Zeus Remodeling - Landscape San Francisco

Zeus Remodeling

(38 reviews)

We worked with Zeus Remodeling for a project that amounted to a whole-house remodel (with…read morelandscaping) and were very satisfied with both the process and the end product. At the start of the project we set out to find a 'one stop shop' in that we were focused specifically on Design-Build firms who would help plan a vision and then execute to it. While my partner and I have strong aesthetic opinions neither of us are particularly creative and we were seeking a firm that could come in and present us with options that we could iterate on. Thankfully this turned out to be a strong match to Paul's artistic sensibilities. We interviewed several other firms through this process but none of them inspired the level of confidence or empathy in terms of what we were looking for. I should also call out Paul's skills in sketching as a tremendous tool in pre-visualizing options as we were discussing layouts or alternative designs An adjustment going into the process that led to a better outcome was recognizing that the project would evolve along the way. That can feel a little daunting going into a project of this magnitude but being prepared to adjust designs as new options presented themselves and being opportunistic worked out very well for us with the final result. While I suspect that some firms come with an attitude of 'give the client what they want but no more' in preservation of their margins I felt that Paul was constantly providing useful ideas and feedback - he was easily as invested in the project as we were and we benefited significantly in terms of the end result. Designs are nothing without execution however and I'm pleased to say that both Paul's subcontractors and the various vendors that he leveraged are true craftsmen. Clean lines throughout. Well fitted fixtures. As a tech/AV nerd who insisted on incorporating Cat8 wiring to every room and Dolby 7.1 Atmos Sound systems into several rooms I was encouraged that Paul's team were able to accommodate all the wiring requirements to specs that I provided. His team were even able to customize framing to accommodate built in wall speakers and other unreasonable requests. It's tempting to offer advice to others here because obviously we learned so much through the process. The one counterintuitive thing I will share, which Paul obviously knew but we learned by experience is that it's necessary to take your time getting to done. Moving back into the house post-remodel there are necessary adjustments to the work that only become apparent once you start to live there. Paul's team was very responsive in the months following the bulk of the project as needs arose and we felt supported working through the remaining small issues that came up. Would recommend to anyone seeking to take on a project like this, you'll be in good hands.

Paul finally did return my call! He was very generous with his time, helping to answer several…read morequestions I've had about my house. We also exchanged several emails, and I appreciated his willingness to dig up old information that I needed for insurance purposes. I think if you can get ahold of him or his team, they'll do a good job for you. They seem knowledgeable and capable in all things remodeling. My only demerit reflects the challenges I experienced in communications with them. They could invest in some processes, staff, or tools to make sure questions/requests don't fall through the cracks.
