She spent time getting to know our family, our current decorating goals and our end vision. Keeping that in mind, she created a stunning design board prior to beginning the project that met our needs. Ms. Retrowski made visits to our home often as projects were being completed. The finished room is now my favorite in the entire house! I will continue to use Genre Interiors services and highly recommend their services to others.

Her guidance not only made the process easy, but it also saved me over $900. I truly got everything I asked for and more. Thank you, Dawn!

What can I say? You have to see his work to understand the 5 stars! Robert has vision, he can see…read morethings where nothing exists, and his use of fabrics and colors is second to none. While the work he has done for me has been on an old, historic home, he also has worked on modern homes as well, all with the same amazing results. While some of his ideas seem outlandish "What do you think of burlap and velvet curtains?," Huh? Who would put those two fabrics together? Of course Robert did and the resultant draperies are amazing. Robert's work has been featured in several national magazines and while his prices are not for the faint of heart- he is accommodating for almost any budget level. His workload is such that his minimum size project is a room- so this is not the person to call when you need a new sofa or chair. He takes personal pride in what he does- right down to being at the site for furniture delivery or consulting with the painter on what glaze to use to get just the right look. Depending on the client- he will go to the Mart with you shopping or pick it out along with the corresponding fabrics and meet with you in your home. While this business is located in St. Charles, Robert van Buskirk designs does cover the Chicagoland area. One of the nicest things is given that his organization is small, Robert is the person that you are doing business with versus some other design firms where you pay for the principal but deal with the underlings. I have worked with Robert for over 6 years and have recommended him to friends all over the area. Not only is he a great interior designer- he's also a great guy to do business with.

It was my first time using an interior designer and I couldn't be happier with the experience.

Natalia has been incredibly helpful in guiding us through big, impactful design decisions that are practical and thoughtful, while also keeping costs reasonable since we don't want to invest too much in a rental property. I also didn't want an interior designer to fully design every detail of the place. I wanted to be involved in choosing pieces myself, but have someone I could trust to advise me on whether things would actually work in our space, and Natalia has been perfect for that. I'll text her with questions about furniture purchases, design ideas, or even quick installation decisions when our maintenance guy is here, and she always responds right away. My husband is also very picky, but he has been genuinely impressed with her advice and with how our place has come together. I know Natalia takes on much larger and more expensive projects than ours, but I have never once felt like we were wasting her time. She has always been responsive, kind, and very professional. I highly recommend Natalia to anyone looking for practical, thoughtful design guidance that respects your time and budget. We'll definitely be working with her again on our next home project whenever we move.
