My husband and I recently sold our 1926 house in Berkeley and prior to selling it had serious…read moreconcerns that because of its horribly outdated kitchen, and having only one bathroom, that the house would potentially sit on the market forever. We found Cecile through the recommendation of friend and consulted with her on the redesign of our kitchen. We had a bit of a time constraint, and didn't want to go overboard on a "dream kitchen" that we'd have to just sell! In addition to her fabulous sense of design, one of Cecile's best qualities is her ability to really LISTEN and translate needs into a workable and fabulous design. With a simple tweak to the existing floor plan, she changed it from a closed off situation, to a beautiful, open kitchen connecting to the rest of the house! Her design removed a wall which opened up the kitchen to the dining room and made room for a half bathroom! It's something I would NEVER have thought of and it worked beautifully! She somehow made the old and the new come together and look natural, plus she picked colors for the walls that gave it that "designer" look! Our house got four great offers after the first open house and we couldn't be happier! She's wonderful and talented and great to work with. Can't recommend her enough! :o)

We loved working with Megan!! We got to work with Megan for our kitchen renovation and she did an…read moreamazing job! I had never done a house renovation before with a general contractor, and Megan helped me every step of the way. I gave her a very specific and short timeline that I needed the work to be done by. She went with me to multiple appointments, had frequent video chats with me and insured that we had the quality of products picked out within the appropriate amount of time to order them and get the work done. She drew out plans for me, got exact measurements, so we were never delayed in a part in our project. Multiple vendors commented on how easy it was to work with her blueprints. Throughout the project I would feel comfortable raising concerns to Megan and on multiple occasions, she spoke up on my behalf and advocated for me when I didn't feel comfortable speaking up myself. She did a great job of ensuring my initial vision was pulled through, even when we ran into redirection. She consulted with me on which products to splurge on versus what things could save me money. She helped bridge the communication between working with a contractor and someone who had never done something like this before. I highly recommend Megan not only for her style and her organization, but also for her professionalism and her advocacy. We will definitely be working with her on all our big projects to come!!

Megan jumped right into our project and designed an entirely new bathroom for us, including new floor layout, new materials, hardware etc. She made it a seamless and fun process.

Even with us living in GA and her in California, she never missed a beat. We love Megan so much... we hired her to do more!

Rosi has become a dear friend and we thank her for helping us create a home we absolutely love!…read more Rosi worked with us over a few months this summer and fall to renovate a 4BR home we purchased in the peninsula. We had some idea what we wanted to do, but no way to execute and ensure we wouldn't make costly mistakes or bad choices. That's where Rosi came in. Her vast experience, vendor relationships, design expertise and creative eye helped us figure out how exactly to plan and design each space. She helped us redo our kitchen to maximize space and impact. She kept on top of all the details- where the island should go, what configuration of cabinets would work with our needs, what kind of slab and how much we would need. She connected me with the right vendors to price out sinks and lighting. She also designed all of our bathrooms with distinctive personalities, choosing delightful tile choices, functional and unique vanities and hardware. For our master bath, she provided designs and helped us totally reimagine the space including the shower. When it came time to pick furniture, she was instrumental in pulling together a cohesive look and helping me find pieces that work for our space and our needs. She did all this for us during the pandemic! Collaborating with her virtually was easy. She is responsive and cares as deeply about our project as we do. She is also just a really wonderful person, with a sweet family and business she runs herself. I whole heartedly recommend Rosi!

I met Rosi while she was helping some of my clients design their offices and she impressed me by…read moreher ability to make big impacts with minimal dollars so I asked her to help my wife and I with our home. I was pleased to see that her ability to deliver on a budget carried over, but I was even more impressed after working directly with her on our project. Rosi worked hand-in-hand with my wife to design our nursery, upgrade my office, update our master bedroom and generally add accents and art to our whole home. The results were great and we are very happy, but Rosi was very professional and always conscious of our budget when making recommendations. Here are the highlights of working with Rosi: 1. Budget. As mentioned above, Rosi finds solutions that are creative and economical and doesn't try to push high priced items on her clients. Rosi's design fees are very reasonable and competitive. 2. Organization. Rosi is very professional and created a spreadsheet at the beginning of our project so that we could track costs and delivery items (including tracking info) for all the items she purchased for our home. 3. Communication. Rosi listens to her clients and allows their personal style to come through while also making helpful suggestions. She's very responsive and always available to answer questions. 4. Fun. My wife very much appreciated Rosi and she made the process fun instead of stressful. I would highly recommend to Rosi to anyone in the future!

Roger took a stodgy house with 1970's furniture and décor and moved it into the 21st century. The kitchen was completely remodeled. Roger recommended all the other professionals needed like a painter, plumber, etc. to ensure the job would go smoothly and quickly. While I interviewed other providers, I ended up using Roger's folks as their bids were less expensive and he had a track record of working with them.
