I could write pages about the excellent work done by Jo-Ann Capelaci and Deidre Taylor…read more I knew I needed major changes in my home with a vague idea of what I wanted - master bath, kitchen, lighting, flooring, paint and window treatments. Jo-Ann was one of many designers I reached out to, but she was the first to engage in a meaningful conversation. An appointment was set and Deidre came to my home for the initial consultation. She spent time getting to know me along with my likes and dislikes. The guidance and direction they provided was phenomenal. They both exude a calmness that helped make this all manageable. I would absolutely recommend Jo-Ann, Deidre and the rest of her associates - I could not be happier with the results. They exceeded my expectations and left me with a home I love.

This is why when I bought a house I thought to call her for some advice and guidance. She met me at the new home as well as at some stores to help me sort through some of the more important decisions like COLOR. The questions she asked me while in my new home made me think, and actually saved me money because she brought up a few things I would never have thought of and I ended up going in a different (better) direction. Her knowledge and experience, along with her kind and calm demeanor took a lot of my stress away as I was making these important decisions about my new (first) home! I look forward to working with her again when we decide to do more improvements.

She is extremely knowledgeable and helped source everything we needed from rugs to sofas to tables, lighting-- she even convinced me to get some plants which I love!

Two years ago I was…read moresearching for a designer/decorator to help me with a huge renovation project on my home, and Genoveve Serge was recommended to me. How lucky I got! The project was labor intensive and took nearly a year, and through every step of the process Genoveve was right there handling the contractors, the permits, the help with the overwhelming decisions on everything from flooring, to cabinets, plumbing fixtures, lighting, painting or wallpaper, fabrics and furniture...you name it. She was eager to listen to my ideas, and helped guide me through the design process from beginning to end, which was daunting, but would have been impossible without her. Even today, I can turn to her for advice and she's always reliable, very responsive, and genuinely caring for my needs. If you have a design project, large or small, and you are faced with the "where do I even start?" thoughts, call Genoveve. You will be in very capable hands and very glad you made the call.

However, with a toddler and a baby on the way, we knew it was unrealistic. Melissa was such a pleasure to work with. She was responsive and very accommodating to our schedule. I am surprised that she doesn't have more reviews as she seems to be quite popular through word of mouth. Our realtor said her other clients were using Melissa to stage their home as well. She also staged two other homes in our neighborhood. We did accept an offer way above our asking price and I believe Melissa's design skills contributed to that. I would definitely recommend her for your staging needs!

My mom was very involved in the design process, and Shir was able to balance both of our perspectives seamlessly -- which is no small task! She handled everything from major pieces like beds, couches, and chairs to smaller details like hardware, candles, and vases. Every choice felt intentional and cohesive. She really understood how to bring our modern-cozy vision to life while honoring the architecture of our Spanish-style home here in Southern California. Hiring Shir was absolutely worth it. Beyond her expert eye for design, you're paying for the time, clarity, and confidence that come with working with a true professional. We would've spent months second-guessing decisions (and probably made costly mistakes) trying to do this ourselves. Instead, we got a beautifully designed home that feels effortless and perfectly "us." Highly, highly recommend her for both big and small projects -- she's amazing at what she does.

Lisa is a wonderfully experienced and expert designer whose creative input, aesthetic vision and…read moreprofessional contacts were instrumental for the success of our home remodeling project. We consulted Lisa once we had already embarked on the project although I wish we had done it sooner. From the beginning, Lisa made us feel welcome and comfortable even though this was not a million dollar project. We appreciated her positive attitude and generous spirit. She provided key input on layout, design and materials as well as expert vendor recommendations for window treatments, closet solutions, lighting, tiles, fixtures, wall coverings, furniture and decor. Her rates were fair and she was always mindful of our budget and time constraints when recommending ideas and solutions. Lisa took time to understand our aesthetic preferences. She worked tirelessly to make sure that the contractor/ vendors delivered high quality results and on time. When we had a small issue with the closet vendor, she immediately escalated it and made sure that the work was completed to our satisfaction. Her thoughtful recommendations and painstaking attention to detail were critical in delivering results which are beautiful, functional, and harmonize well with the rest of the house. Special kudos to her for the kids bedroom, bathroom and powder room- they are stunning thanks to her vision and selection of paint colors, wallpaper and / materials. Finally, we had a lot of fun working with Lisa. Her high energy, enthusiasm and sense of humor took a lot of the stress out of remodeling and made us feel good throughout the process. We really appreciated the opportunity to work with Lisa and hope we get to collaborate again with her in the future
