Ashton is a dream to work with! When we moved to PDX, I met with a number of interior designers,…read moreand we ultimately chose Ashton because of her style, her ability to understand our aesthetic, and her practicality. We found many designers have a specific 'style', but Ashton cares most about her client's tastes. She says, "you guys have to love it because you will be living here." Something so practical shouldn't be standout, but it really is! She was transparent about the process and had frequent check ins around our budget. We felt empowered and heard throughout the process. And in the end, she helped us create our perfect space. We didn't think we would be spending quite so much time at home, but we were glad to have a beautiful and comfortable space, especially during stay at home. We plan to continue working with Ashton for future updates, and we can't wait!

We hired Ashton to help us with space planning and furniture selection for our beach house in Manzanita. She also helped with the design of some remodeling work that we did. We worked almost entirely during the pandemic. We had never worked with a designer before, but we knew we needed design help with our house. We purchased our house for the beautiful views but the design of the house was not our taste. Ashton has helped us make it ours and it feels like home. She helped us find a great contractor to do the small remodeling project and helped us choosing flooring, lighting and paint color for repainting the kitchen cabinets. She also helped with the design plans for enclosing a loft space into an additional bedroom. It looks like such a different house without spending a lot of money, and her choices were not what I would have thought of but I love. I most appreciate her beautiful taste, but I am also so impressed at how she helped us stay within our budget. She helped us find new furniture to purchase in our price range. And, she also helped us find some great pieces from antique stores at a real bargain. I know that we ended up saving a lot of money working with Ashton - making good choices and finding good deals. I look forward to continue working with her and I hope to hire her to help us with our home in Seattle.

Not only did they do an outstanding job bringing out the absolute best features in the home but they did so with a unique vision tailored for this particular home. These aren't cookie cutter stagers. They have vision! Kat and Michelle really care about making the character and personality of each property shine. My client's property sold right away at a substantial percentage over list price. The staging of Nixon & Copeland were an integral part of this outcome and, in addition, they made me look really great as a Realtor for bringing them on board. I will definitely hire them again.

She listened to my ideas and gave me great feedback as well as worked within my budget. She and her team were able to coordinate with our builder and even came up with some changes to the plans that worked even better. Allsion has a great sense of style and color. She managed to turn our home into a cozy and elegant space that reflected the style I requested. She chose the furniture, accessories, appliances, lighting, rugs, knobs, bathroom accessories and other items that matched the theme and mood I wanted. She also added some personal touches, such as a framed print I loved and photos of my husband and me. I would highly recommend Allison to anyone looking for an interior designer. She is talented, reliable, and easy to work and did I mention a dynamite personality. She has a portfolio of her previous work on her website, where you can also find her contact information.

Allison and her team were very communicative and easy to work with, finding times that fit with our busy schedule, and keeping us up to date on all the logistics that we needed to know about while behind the scenes doing all the tedious things we can't manage ourselves. They found us amazing furniture but also came in and used our existing extensive art collection to make our house a stunning show piece that I keep walking through, feeling like I'm on a design show. We love bold, rich colors and bohemian accents, and lots of them, so it can easily feel cluttered, but Allison and the team helped us find a way to showcase our pieces and still feel clean and homey. Bonus points: they came in and installed the furniture while we were away on a vacation, so we came home to a magazine-perfect home, and it was so exciting! I couldn't be happier!
