We reached out a very last minute, and she was kind enough to fit us into her busy schedule without hesitation. That flexibility meant so much to us, and it truly set the tone for how thoughtful and client-focused she is. When it came time to stage our home, Susan moved quickly. Her eye for design is amazing and knew exactly how to make our home look both beautiful and inviting. Her team was also impressive. They were careful and respectful throughout the process, taking great care to pack and shrink-wrap our personal items for storage so nothing was damaged. They worked quickly, efficiently and handled everything with professionalism and kindness. The house looked stunning once she was finished, and we received so many compliments from agents, and potential buyers. I'm confident that her work played a big part in how quickly and smoothly our home sold. We highly recommend Susan Bacchi and we're so grateful for her help and would absolutely work with her again in the future!

I'll be honest-we were pretty overwhelmed at the thought of doing a full makeover for our home. We…read moreknew we wanted a total makeover for our place, but trying to find a team that actually handles the 'boots on the ground' construction side and the high-end design is way harder than it looks. After talking to a few different firms, Kanika Design just felt like the right fit. Kanika really listened to what we wanted. I've always been a bit nervous about using bold colors, but she pushed us (in a good way!) for a deeper color palette in the main living areas. It looks incredible. Kanika found us so many unique, high-quality furniture pieces that you just won't find at a big-box store. The biggest thing for us was logistics. Once the design process completed, their team handled everything - architectural, permit headache, and construction. Anyone who has done a remodel knows things never go 100% perfectly, but whenever an issue popped up, they were on top of it immediately. They kept the contractors moving and kept us updated on the budget and what was happening next. It's a relief to finally be done after 2 years and have a home that feels like us but way better. I can't recommend Kanika and her team enough. We're still obsessed with how everything turned out.

From the first meeting, the team took the time to understand not just how we use the space, but also what kind of atmosphere we wanted for family dinners and evenings with friends. They proposed solutions that were modern yet warm, clean lines natural materials and lighting choices that make the space feel inviting without being overdesigned. What I really appreciated was their attention to detail. Things like flow between the kitchen and dining area, sightlines to the garden and even how the furniture would interact with the architecture, all of it was considered. Communication was excellent throughout: clear updates, quick responses and they navigated the city requirements smoothly so I didn't have to. The result feels both stylish and deeply livable. Hosting dinners now feels effortless, the layout encourages conversation and the finishes add just the right amount of elegance. If you care about design that balances beauty with functionality, this team delivers. They're not just designing a house, they're designing a home.

She also gave us on-the-spot lessons in design theory, which I genuinely appreciated and can now apply moving forward. As we cleared out what had to be 20+ bags of clutter, she offered to take care of both trash and donations, and had a hauling service at our house within the hour. I literally told her, "You're making all my problems go away." If you're looking for someone who combines logistics, empathy, design, and wizard-level efficiency--Monica's your person.

The stress levels that decreased in my life alone is worth hiring Prerna. What she did in 6 months would have taken me probably 12-14 months. Because of how amazing she did on managing the build we have hired her now to do all our interior design. So excited to move to into our dream place this spring. 10/10 recommended 10/10 would hire again.
