In 2016, we were lucky enough to learn thru past work done, about Design4BayArea. Right away, we realized that we have a design professional that can see our project from a different angle and beyond what online pictures can provide. Oksana and her team were able to create a synergy, inside and out, where one can enjoy and be proud of a home, that is unique to their nature, but at the same - time liked by many! Team availability and response was amazing, no question has been left untouched and at the end of the day our projects have gained additional value comparing to the competition. So far we have worked together on multiple projects that created happy memories and memorable design.

She's studied with masters all over Asia and here, and yet offers the best rate. In addition, she remains available for questions and will see you through the changes and cures. We feel very blessed to have found such a gem of a consultant: she is truly a master in her own right. You will not regret using her for your Feng Shui needs.

OhEmGee- Where do I even begin to describe the massive amount of amazing that Rochiel and her…read moreservices have brought forth into our world? Having been interested in Feng Shui for quite some time and after applying many of the principles to our somewhat energetically challenged living space, it was time to call in a pro. After a thorough amount of research, Rochiel stood out as the best option. I had no idea how much our world would change by bringing her in - and all for the positive! Rochiel worked with us via video to assess our living space, needs, desires, and goals and then provided a step-by-step instructional manual to help us stay on track. She has been available via text for every question big and small as we've applied the changes to our space and is always working towards aligning us with our bigger picture visions. Our home now feels much more like a home instead of just a space where we happen to keep our stuff and sleep. SO many issues have been remedied from communication challenges to uncertainty with finances. In fact, within weeks of applying the suggested changes to our wealth areas my roommate received a huge unexpected bonus and a dual promotion at his place of employment and my business picked up substantially. A month after that, I received an amazing work related offer and things seem destined to continue on an upswing. We still have a few kinks to work out but that's mostly due to our space being rather challenging and there were a LOT of things in need of remedying. I am confident that with Rochiel on our side, we will be able to further optimize the space. To reiterate, the space feels more alive, roomier, more supportive, and overall just so much more pleasant to come home to. We are so happy to have aligned energetically with Rochiel. We couldn't dream up a better guide to help us navigate the world of Feng Shui and the difference it can make in your daily life. Don't hesitate - she really is that good!

I'd found some stores in New York that carried Calligari's products, so when I saw Calligari's driving North on Federal Highway, I pulled in. I immediately bought an office chair, on wheels. It was stylish and comfortable. I fell in love with it. I went back for another chair. Instead of the wheeled chair for my desk, I wanted one for my kitchen table where I paint. Being thrilled in both rooms, I went back and bought two more chairs to match the one in the kitchen on wheels and a glass topped table that could be both a coffee or kitchen table. It is now my kitchen table and I couldn't be happier. I love the store and have to fight the urge to go back because everything is stylish, modern and well built.

She uses a bunch of basic/entry level contractors that lack creativity especially for our home plans.... they were HORRIBLE! She charged us 30k for her to sign on; on top on 30-40% markups across the board as she hid them in her estimates!!! Her estimates weren't itemized and she just slapped grand totals on them with no explanations nor estimates for work or materials. Just constant requests for hundreds of thousands of dollars. She OVERCHARGED for EVERYTHING & recommended that she work in secret and hide the job from the city. She totally skipped the permitting process. She gave us no picture or video renderings as discussed.... She stole someone else's design photos and told us they were hers. We saw them on google! She tried to give us cheap laminate cabinetry with sky high custom pricing (3-4x the price). She tried to sell us furniture from her friends store.. We picked 60k worth of things and she tried to charge us $13,000.00 for shipping... She said we had to pay the shipping cost from Italy... The furniture was already in the showroom & on U.S. SOIL!!! Then she got mad when we told her we didn't want it. As a 55-60 year old woman; she threw a whole tantrum... we were SHOCKED! Her contractors Damaged our driveway & hurricane sliders and didn't pay for it... It's been 6 months & no word. Did 50% of the demolition job that she charged 200% of the cost for! I have been meaning to leave this review for a while because we got scorched by this interior design/scam artist! LISTEN TO US CLOSELY: RUN!!!! We had to pay another $600,000 to the owner of the property because she didn't pull permits and he threatened to foreclose on us thanks to her. She claimed she could sweet talk him off the ledge with her meritless deceptive charm and he ended up hating her and she only frustrated him more. She ruined that relationship for us all. He threatened to call authorities on her for working without proper permits. Come to find out Her demo crew was not licensed nor insured. She started the demo before we had plans or permits to trap us. She kept trying to prematurely get us to buy cabinets, appliances & fixtures BEFORE we even had plans so she could make her markups on the items This woman is deceptive and conniving. Take our advice & run!!!!!! We ended up reading other peoples reviews of her only after getting ripped off! We lost an easy $400,000 to her and her horrible ripoff operation on top of having to pay the owner another $600k prematurely so he wouldn't foreclose out of frustration and disappointment due to her lack of permits, licensing and integrity.

Jessica made interior design a lot more approachable and it helped me realize that it's not just for people looking to completely redo an entire house, but can even help with small things like deciding where in the room to put a piece of furniture, what colors to choose based on the type of light that comes in, and more.

Jessy works independently but keeps you involved and informed. Our first session was eye-opening--she used a fun questionnaire and visual prompts to help uncover my true design preferences, even ones I hadn't realized myself. Throughout the project, she presented 2-3 curated options at each stage, which was perfect for someone like me who gets overwhelmed by too many choices. She asked early on how involved I wanted to be, and in my case, I chose the full experience. Jessy always respected my opinions while offering clear, professional advice. Ultimately, the final decisions were mine--but better, because she helped me go beyond what I thought I wanted. (For example, she gently steered me away from lilac walls and butterflies, helping me embrace bold colors and more grown-up elements--and she was right!) The end result was better than I imagined: a beautiful, clean, functional, and personal space that became my happy place. Even after I moved out, the bold berry walls and gold accents still bring me joy when I remember that room. I absolutely recommend Jessy. She's talented, intuitive, efficient, and genuinely cares about creating spaces that feel like home.
