We have a large house that, although beautiful, has some awkwardness in its exterior design in the back. In the front, more than half of our facade has natural stone with predominantly warm tones. And to make things even more complicated, the original acrylic window frames are stark white... In spite of so many limiting elements, Sarah was able to come up with a great solution to our problem. The new color scheme compliments the peaceful atmosphere of our property and, at the same time, adds a touch of timeless sophistication to our slightly awkward house. Aside from having obvious creative talent, Sarah is a great listener and communicator, and will do her best to incorporate your personal preferences into the final product. I strongly recommend Astute Adobe Design for any project that involves colors and shapes.

We are new to the Seattle area, so our realtor referred us to Sarah who helped us plan a full house renovation. She was very responsive & accommodating to our out-of-state travel schedule throughout the entire process. Sarah was instrumental in helping us plan the layout, design aesthetic and project oversight with the general contractor. Her resourcefulness & industry contacts were essential to accelerate the sourcing and ordering of a wide variety of products and materials. In addition, her attention to detail and problem solving skills were essential at each stage of this complete renovation. As experienced homeowners, we appreciated that Sarah took the time to understand and consider our preferences to encompass both style and function into our home design. She is a dependable and skilled designer with integrity and professionalism. We are very happy with the end result and could not have done this without her assistance. Helene & Charles, Seattle, WA

Dorling Design Studio

We were very disappointed with our experience with Dorling Design Studio. We initially met in March…read more2022 to discuss a master bathroom remodel, fireplace surround, and kitchen backsplash. We expressed a desire to start the project in September, which she indicated would be an easy target. Our next meeting was in May, in which Jessica and the general contractor discussed the project again. It took until June 8th to get an estimate for the construction portion. We signed Jessica's design agreement and gave the design deposit on June 24th. Our next meeting was on 7/13, in which Jessica said she was going to bring an initial design mood board in addition to measuring for a vanity. She did have her cabinet person measure for a vanity, but she did not present a mood board. Instead she showed us a few tile samples for the bathroom only and a picture of a vanity on her phone. Jessica did not follow-up with us afterward with any updates and by 8/1 we cancelled her design services. Jessica's performance and the lack of visible progress since we paid the deposit was unacceptable and there was no way we were going to be able to get a final design plan approved, materials ordered, and delivered, in order to start construction in September. She even went so far as to blame us saying that our budget didn't fit with what we wanted out of the project. Be aware that the entire design fee is given when the contract is signed. We never received any design and also never got a refund of any portion of the fee either.

Not only did the build out take forever (7 months), but since picking up my van on my first/second use, I have had roof leaks because they didn't install the "C" gaskets right for the AC unit, I experienced multiple leaks in the pressurized plumbing system (see pictures below) which caused wood damage to the cabinetry due to poor PEX seals, I still have no relief from the misbehaving (and Rydawell recommended) Ecoflow electrical system, I discovered they failed to insulate the sliding door, they actually plumbed the gray water lines into the BOTTOM of the gray water tank using the same penetration point as the drain (this caused water to back up into the shower pan when using the sinks (not to mention it would fail completely in freezing weather) and I discovered that the Rixen heating system was installed against manufacturer recommendations (to name just some of the issues). This has caused me thousands of dollars to get repaired (so far) at another (competent) van builder. While his hourly rate may seem cheaper, it takes him much longer to accomplish work items. As an example, his quote to install a 2nd battery (which he was supposed to have left room for) was twice as long as I was able to get it done elsewhere by professional van builders.

We wanted the floors revived and refinished before we moved in, and Vlad and his brothers were communicative, transparent, quick, and professional. Our project was split into multiple steps (because of us, not them) and they graciously planned around us and came back multiple times throughout the project. They even gave us the suggestion of starting the floors, and then coming back to finish them after we finished painting walls because of dust, debris, etc., to make sure we were happiest with the end result. When we had questions or any concerns, they were quick to call, give tips, and come back to assess or change something based on our preferences. They even gave us some of the product they used so we could match our baseboards and fill them the way they suggested. I would highly recommend them for any flooring project.

They are family-run business (Serhii, his brother and family members do all the work), Serhii is a great communicator and he responded to my detailed questions in writing very clearly while some other contractors don't care to spend that time/effort. Their pricing is also pretty fair. During the project they worked hard and kept the schedule as promised. During the process some unanticipated issues came up and they showed flexibility and willingness to change the scope of the project and schedule accordingly. They are detail oriented. After we had them reinstall all baseboards there was one place we were not quite happy, they came back and fixed it. The end result was beautiful and it had been a great experience working with Serhii and his family crew! Northwest Flooring is definitely at the top of my list for any of our future hardwood flooring needs!

City Bee ran both the railing and flooring projects so I had one quote, one contract and one project manager. Their price was very competitive, they did high quality work, and they finished in a timely manner. Oleksandr, the owner, project managed everything and made himself available all throughout the project. He was very responsive to all my questions and provided thorough answers so I could understand the technical aspects of the work. And when I wanted a couple of small changes they were accommodated cheerfully without impacting the project timeline. I highly recommend City Bee and wouldn't hesitate to use them again!

My wife and I were looking to update our bedrooms, so after searching high and low, we found Mariko with The Apartment Designer.

Since my wife and I love to be hands-on and wanted to feel part of the project, we chose the E-Design option, which is very budget friendly. After a quick phone consult, all you have to do is provide pictures/video of your space, some Pinterest boards of your ideas that you want your space to be, and then you send measurements. Then voila! Mariko works her magic and provides you an E-Design, along with a purchase list with direct links to websites.
