    Where to begin. We contracted Jen to do a restaurant remodel. We had been operating the same space…read moresince 2016 and when we opened at that time we didn't invest heavily into design. We recently decided that it was finally time to give the restaurant a fresh start and a makeover. Jen was incredible. Her attention to detail, creativity, and final vision are genius. Her knowledge of design and her work ethic are incredible. I've mentioned many times that she reminds me of Joana Gaines from HGTVs fixer upper. Jen is the ultimate problem solver. The hallway to our bathrooms needed lighting and she was able to find an effective and chic fix right away. We had an old bench that my painters suggested throwing away before she stepped in to show them how to spray paint it and refurbish it without spending a lot of their time. She noticed a light fixture in front of the restaurant that I had never noticed and all it needed was a light bulb which transformed the entrance. She free hand painted a mural for us which was amazing. She was able to reorganize seating to allow for more space and more seats. Finally she was able to open up the space and brought in more natural light by choosing different colors/lighting. The space really transformed and we didn't have to do any heavy construction. We planned on doing the restaurant in 3 phases. So far we were able to complete the first phase which has had great feedback from our customers. The restaurant already looks new and I can't wait to see the entire project get finished.

    When I moved into a new house a few months ago, the process of deciding where things went in the…read morenew space was absolutely overwhelming. I knew I needed help specifically with my linen closet. What happened is much more than that. We ended up talking about the way that I use the upstairs part of my house (where the linen closet is), as well as the components of my life that I felt were a little bit disorganized, etc. Out of those conversations, Placed Designs ended up creating a central portal for organization in the upper level of my home. I now have a place that holds everything we need for the upstairs, so I don't have to keep running up and down stairs for little things like toilet paper, cleaning supplies, a flashlight or a pair of scissors, etc. It was a problem that I didn't even know I had, and they solved it. Another thing that I liked is they found a way to handle my specific and unique guest room challenge. We have a Murphy bed there, and most of the time it's put up. When we have guests over, we need to pull the Murphy bed down, and grab everything that goes on it quickly and put it altogether. We now have a system for that! Putting away laundry in the linen closet is a joy, honestly because it's so pretty! Placed Designs focuses on the aesthetics of the area that they are organizing, as well as the organization system itself. I cannot wait to hire them again to do more of my house!

She was professional and patient, not many architects would want to come in on a project mid-way to help clean up a mess (I say this because that was our experience until someone referred is to Placed Designs). This firm and Kendra, definitelty stands apart from the rest. Kendra of placed designs has been prompt to respond especially when she has a full work load, she's taken the time to consult on our project, assist our current architect with permitting and provide expert knowledge throughout the process. I sure wish I'd known about Placed Designs at the start. We are looking forward to using Placed Designs and Kendra on our next project. When the stakes are high and you're designing your dream home or you're investing in a remodel you have one shot to get it right. You want an architect you can trust, knows exactly how to deal with permitting and responds quickly. This was our experience and more with Placed Designs and Kendra. Her design work and ethic speak volumes.

    My house is a bit overdue for an exterior paint job (the neighbors are starting to inquire) so I…read morewent to Authentic Home to get help in choosing colors. This is a specialty of theirs, and for a fee they'll send a consultant to your home to help you choose colors for the body, trim, eaves, doors, etc. (They'll help you with interior colors as well, of course.) I'm fairly clueless when it comes to this sort of thing, so paying an expert $350 is far preferable to ending up with a color disaster. The woman who came out brought along large color sample sheets (8.5x11) rather than the tiny swatches you get in paint stores, so visualizing what the color will look like on a large area was easy to do. (Anyone who has ever based a paint choice on a single square-inch sample knows how error-prone that process can be.) If, unlike me, you trust your own color judgment, just stop by their shop.They carry two lines of paint:, Devine and Authentic Home COLOR, both of which come in 2 oz. sample sizes for every color they carry, so you can test it out on a good sized patch before committing to a quart or gallon. The paint prices are a bit high - a good $5/gallon over what you'd pay for the best quality Benjamin Moore paint - but the Devine brand goes on so thick that you'll be tempted to stop after a single coat. And given the time and labor investment involved in painting, the cost of the paint itself seems negligible.

    I've struggled for some time in writing this review as my experience with Ms. Banak and Authentic…read moreHome was such an overwhelming disappointment I could not put the experience to words. I contacted Authentic Home about 4 years ago, after buying my first home in West Seattle. I wanted to use a local business to support the neighborhood and had not worked with a design firm before. I was disappointed from the start. The designer did not seem to "get me" although I was willing to continue to work with her and make the best of it. It got worse from the start. I had to work around the designer's schedule she did not work with mine. When the products began to arrive to my home, couch pillows were falling apart, fabrics were incorrect and silk curtains were made so poorly a third grader could have done the work. I do know that the "designer" I worked with decided to leave the company during the process and one of the vendors was let go (at least that's what Kathy told me)...it was a mess. What was most disappointing was Kathy Banak's response to my disappointment in the service. I spent over 15K for a small room design and after 4 years it turns my stomach when I look at the draperies and recall the whole experience. I am writing this after such a long time because I think it's important that anyone looking for a design service take this information into consideration. Although I would never purchase paint or anything else from Kathy Banak I cannot speak to the paint/color consulting service Authentic Home provides. I would highly recommend asking for references, reviewing work and understanding what vendors they work with if you plan to take any advice or order products outside of paint color from Authentic Home.

I used to be a contractor in my younger days so I pretty much knew what to look for, questions to ask and recognize the "gut feeling". Jessica and her project foreman Justin, came out and chatted with us during the interview process and we instantly felt a connection, as well as, their plan and ideas impressed us. We hired NOR Design & Construction during the COVID-19 chaos and were a little nervous about people coming into the home but the entire process was made very smooth for us. Not only was every precaution used to protect our home, but masks were used, sign in sheets were used to keep track of who and when someone entered our home, a "wash station" was set up for employees to sanitize and wash their hands was in place, and a Port-o-Potty was set up so that no contactors wouldn't use our facilities. Now lets talk about a HUGE concern when hiring a contractor...COMMUNICATION and DEPENDABILITY. Jessica and Justin set up a group text with myself and they were in constant communication with us throughout the entire project! Any questions, concerns or anything else was made extremely smooth and made us feel so comfortable. The project had someone at our house every day from start to finish! Honestly, I can't say enough positives about NOR Design & Construction. If you are thinking of a Bath or Kitchen remodel, we highly recommend them!

Because the counter top was formica and would be damaged during removal, the contractor told me I should plan to replace it. I hired Calista Munnell from Calista Interiors to help me quickly make smart and attractive choices for the counter top and flooring. Initially I wanted to go with a marble called Rain Forest Green. Calista talked me out of it. She explained marble is too soft for the wear and tear experienced by most kitchen counter tops. Because I really wanted something attractive, durable, and low maintenance, Calista recommended granite. We walked through several places and looked at hundreds of slabs. Of course I liked some of the more wild and crazy slabs. She pointed out the slabs with large patterns might not look as good with big holes cut out of them for the range and sink and it might be more difficult to attractively align the seams. All good points. I plan to sell my house in a few years. So when I fell in love with a very intense slab of Ocean Red, Calista explained it would be a very polarizing choice. Some potential buyers would like the red, many others would not. It would be best to select a counter top that would appeal to a broader cross section of people. I thought about it and decided she was right. We finally settled on a beautiful slab of Kosmos from Pental. It looks great with the existing cabinets. Calista and I talked briefly about the back splash. I knew I didn't want to run the Kosmos up the wall. A few days later Calista showed up with the perfect selection: a metallic glass and stone mosaic (Titanium) from Tierra Sol. It will perfectly tie the exiting cabinets together with the new counter top. Very exciting. I knew I needed a new kitchen sink and faucet, but I didn't want to spend a second looking through the hundreds of sinks and faucets available at Home Depot and Lowes. Calista quickly recommended a beautiful under mount stainless steel sink and matching faucet. Excellent. Finally we shopped around for new flooring. The original flooring was solid maple and limited to just the kitchen, nook, front entry way, and guest bathroom. The carpet was 15 years old and starting to show its age in high traffic areas. Calista recommend ripping up the carpet and covering the entire downstairs with hardwood flooring. It's strong, easy to care for, and will increase the resale of my home. I grew up in the South in an old house with hardwood floors. It didn't take much to convince me to replace the dingy carpet with beautiful solid wood floors. I'm very thankful for Calista's time and insights. She was the perfect partner for me. Now my home is more beautiful than ever.

The space is totally transformed and feels brighter and more welcoming. They worked efficiently and were incredibly helpful in answering all of our questions and providing recommendations on appliances, cabinets, and countertops. The team opened up the kitchen wall, put in a support beam, installed a new sink, cabinets, stove vent, flooring, and tiling. The work is top quality and was completed on an efficient timeline. As non-handy people, it's wonderful to know what you are getting and that Josh will take the time to explain things that are probably extremely obvious. Josh is very responsive, friendly, and honest. And it was a pleasure to work with the whole team - Josh, Jake, and Amber. Everyone is really kind and thoughtful and we loved having a small, local team do the work. We will trust Josh on all of our house renovation needs going forward and couldn't recommend him more highly.

Josh and Jake are a two-man dynamic duo. They efficient, intelligent, very honest and polite. They totally "remade" our small, inefficient bathroom. They tore it down to the studs, moved a window to create a beautiful shower, and turned the room into a functional work of art. And they did it on budget! We hit a snag because my hubby wanted cultured marble for the shower and Josh does tile (as in our beautiful heated floor). We chose a lower bid, (our mistake) and the guys didn't know how to cut the shower window and niche properly. When Josh saw the poor quality work he got right on the phone and let them know (in no uncertain terms), their work would have to be redone! It was all fixed to our satisfaction. Jake was here when they came back to supervise. Josh and Jake do top quality work and don't put up with subcontractor folly. But they graciously bear with clients who sometimes "overreact." They listened and made it right.... One more thing to mention. If you plan on booking these guys do it way in advance. They don't advertise. They don't have to. . Also a "shout out" to Herman at Pacific Kitchen and Bath in Tacoma for the gorgeous vanity top they fabricated for us from a remnant. It's perfect!
