She transformed the Studio 300 sq ft to have distinct living, dining, sleeping, and working spaces. She tamed the chaos and created a tranquil space employing textures, artwork, storage, and layout. Our daughter and her puppy love their place. We found the perfect BPC 2 bedroom and needing it move in ready in just 4 weeks, she created a livable contemporary design with custom artwork, sourcing new furnishings, which we never would have picked ourselves, but love, and coordinated all painters and any contractors. On move in day, we filled the pantry, hung our clothes and just started living. What a treat to not have had to worry and just enjoy our new place. No matter what your space, Tina can work her design magic and make it stunningly, comfortably yours.

As a bachelor without design sense it was one of the best investments I could have made. It saved me so much time and anxiety about which pieces to pick and every single person who has visited has been amazed by how nicely decorated my apartment is. The process is exactly as described by other reviewers - introductory call, questionnaire, in home visit, and follow up call a week or two later with a mood board and shopping list. Betsy was incredibly personable and easy to talk to. I was also impressed with how much her suggestions matched my style even though I didn't have the vocabulary to communicate it. Everything fit within my constraints and preferences and Betsy helped with follow up questions and suggestions as pieces came in and as I decided to swap out a few pieces.

With Victoria's experience dealing with all manner of subcontractors, she took complete charge and made sure the painters, electricians, etc. working on identical schedules- knew how imperative it was that everyone get along and get the job done, on time and with quality results. She also knows how to listen. She "got me" and my style down immediately which made tile and paint color suggestions move along at a fast clip.

Victoria worked with me in a one-on-one relationship. Victoria's referrals were 100% completely reliable. Victoria's vision was critical in creating an open floor plan with clean, fresh living space. Victoria's attention to design detail made our home unique with little subtleties. Currently, I am building a retirement home in Pennsylvania. Victoria will be my design consultant. That's the best endorsement I can give - we use Victoria over and over and over again. Deborah Kincaid

It was to be the first time that we hired a interior designer, and we consider ourselves very fortunate that fate had brought the path of a very capable project manager into our life. Before hiring Michelle, we met with countless other designers who were either too simplistic, vague, expensive, and/or impersonal. Michelle immediately put us at ease, as early as our first meeting! She seemed very capable in absorbing all our stress, and we immediately felt that she would deliver a beautiful home to us. Task at Hand: Gut-Renovation of a 1200sqft, 2 bedroom apartment in Lower Manhattan. Including redesigning floor plan, overseeing total demolition, referring the primary general contractor & architect, working with building management & super, and selection of every permanent fixture. Most importantly, managing all these facets of construction in such a way that we can only describe as "symphony-like." Words cannot express how pleased we were with the results that were delivered. We continue to refer and recommend her services to all our friends and family with the utmost confidence that she would deliver nothing but the most exceptional results. Our confidence in her abilities and expertise allowed us to trust her and her referrals. While ultimately we hired many of the sub-contractors, it was Michelle who placed these capable people on our laps. It's true, many designers have a plethora of people they work with, however, Michelle and her team were very competitively priced, and I was confident that they would do a great job because Michelle would be there to insure it!

One project was a full transformation: kitchen, both bathrooms, and complete interior decorating. He brings a fresh style but also advised us to preserve elements of our home that were worth keeping. He continues to work with us to modernize our apartment while maintaining character. He customized our renovations to make our apartment into a wonderful home. From contracting management to design vision and finishing details, Buddy and his team handle everything seamlessly. Having one person oversee both the aesthetic and the execution makes the process incredibly smooth and cohesive. After more than two decades of working together, I can confidently say his experience, eye for design, and hands-on expertise truly set him apart. We have recommended him to many friends and recommend him to those reading this review. You will be delighted!

Everytime I walk into my newly renovated apartment, which was so perfectly executed, I feel like…read moreI'm the main character in a home makeover show. The 'before' shots would feature a cute home, but with signs of aging. Fraying wooden cabinets, and little to no natural light in my bedroom. Now this is all modernized, updated, and thoughtfully designed. Connecting with Buddy via Yelp's Request a Quote feature was lucky, because I got no replies from other businesses I contacted first or was told they couldn't take on my project. I'm thankful because Buddy was actually the right person with the right vision for my space. I had been living with a not optimized closet space and the aforementioned fraying wooden cabinets, as well as my bedroom lacking natural light for years. I had heard one too many contractor nightmare stories that caused me to be ultra cautious so I hesitated to contact anyone. I once hired a virtual interior designer which was a total waste of time/money. Enter Buddy, who is not only a creative visionary with a solid contractor team he's worked with for over a decade, but he's also a licensed therapist, and says that contributes to how he handles spaces, which totally makes sense. In the first consultation with Buddy, he paced around my space and rattled off so many wild ideas, some of which sounded fantastical and unrealistic but he made into reality. The initial consultation fee initially made me wince but now sounds like such a deal when in hindsight I realize he gave me the blueprint to my beautiful new reality. I would not have thought to float my couch in the middle of the living room instead of against the wall, facing the best feature of my apartment-- the view. When I was concerned about where to put the TV, he came up with a customized solution. A mechanized wooden box where the TV rises and falls with the push of a button. It sounds so futuristic but now it's part of my life. His contractor team is so awesome too. They handled all my things with care, and not only did they not disturb my plants, which we kept in the apartment during the renovation, they took care of them too! So sweet. It's been several months now and living in my transformed space has really changed my relationship with my home. My living situation used to feel compromised, but now it really feels like a thoughtful expression of who I am. I've already hosted several parties and get togethers in my home, because the new space is way more amenable to hosting, something Buddy picked up about me after meeting. Buddy's organization (we worked out of a spreadsheet which was a dream for my Type A self), and responsiveness throughout the process really eased my nerves about the project. He and his team took genuine care of my possessions and space that it made the renovation process almost enjoyable. Thank you Buddy, for transforming the daily experience of being in my space. You really delivered something exceptional.

She transformed my living room, bedroom, and balcony into vibrant, elegant spaces that now feel both stylish and personal. From the start, Eva took the time to understand my vision for each room. She then created beautiful design boards that pulled from a mix of sources (Article, West Elm, and others), presenting options that were bright, colorful, and sophisticated. Her taste is impeccable. What really sets Eva apart, though, is how seamless and stress-free she makes the process. She gave incredible individual attention, managed all the small details--ordering everything on my behalf, sending receipts, coordinating delivery--and even found contractors to help with installation. I felt completely taken care of from start to finish. Eva is a true professional with an incredible eye and a warm, collaborative approach. I can't recommend her highly enough!
