He brought color into our lives that has made our house so much more enjoyable. He did an excellent job understanding our style and working within our budget. The work he did was sophisticated and modern. I absolutely LOVED the furniture he picked out for us and the patterns and fabrics he used.

The colors and designs he added were so refreshing and appropriate, it was like a breath of fresh air. Our home sold in 5 days (!) and we attribute a key part of this quick turnaround to Perapol's efforts and improvements. He is very gracious and provides excellent service. We can't recommend him enough - and can't wait to work with him again!

Michele and AMI Staging did an amazing job for me staging a listing. The home was over 4,500 sq ft…read moreand they made it feel so warm, cozy and inviting. They were very professional, easy to work with and super accommodating. Michele and her group worked hard to meet all of our deadlines including bringing the home onto the market and then a quick close of escrow which required a quick removal of the staging. While the home was on the market I received wonderful feedback from other agents and buyers as well. The home looked stunning. I look forward to working with them again!

MMD has disrespected me and my hard earned money and now I have filed a complaint in superior court for the balance due on my account. I hired this man because I thought he was experienced. I'm a very busy physician and I didn't have time to look for samples for flooring, fabrics and window treatments. All easy projects. He didn't really listen to the style I was going for and brought me all kinds of fabrics, colors and samples I didn't like. For example, I got charged for a 4 hour phone call to FRANCE to order fabric for pillow covers! They were ridiculously expensive and not at all what I wanted. He hardly gave me any options and charged me for a ridiculous amount of time. He should have given me a proposal and should have given it to me in WRITING. He should have told me in the proposal he would charge me 10 hours of his time AND his assistants time to get pillows! In addition I got redundant charges for when his assistants would come along or if they helped him pick some fabrics out or when they talked about what they were going to show me. When we discussed a project he would come one day to talk about = charge, one day to measure = another charge, look into options = another charge, he would talk to me about the options = another charge, he would bring by samples = another charge. If is assistants helped him with anything or came along add the additional charges. And this was the inefficiency that went into everything. Just framing and hanging ordinary pictures cost me 5k. He was very inefficient and this way he did his best to squeeze the most money out for doing very little. PLEASE never give him a deposit if you want to see your money again. Needless to say, I terminated his services. Now he owes me a return on my deposit because he deposited the check the next day, even before any work was done. I even agreed to pay him for the time he took to show me all the stuff I didn't like and was too costly. He still owes me a few thousand dollars after I have terminated is work for over a YEAR NOW. Now he WONT RETURN MY CALLS, EMAILS or My MONEY. He does a great job of sending you his bills and depositing your money then next day. He sends bills on the finest, embossed paper. You are paying for that paper and when the time comes, he will not give you your money back that he owes you, so be very careful with him!!! I have filed a complaint with ASCID in Washington DC. Now I have to go to court to get him to pay my deposit. I have filed in superior court of SF and just got a judgement in my favor. Please don't patronize this designer. Call GREEN COUGH INSTEAD! Now I have to prepare for my court date and further waste more of my time and money. I think he has serious financial problems. His professional practices are so bad as you can see by the other reviews. There is very little regulation of this industry. HIRE GREEN COUCH DESIGN they are the best group of designers. They are fresh, cool, modern and classic, and the style is exactly what I wanted. I got my entire project done in half the time Michael took to do one part and I got even more than I wanted with them. I got all new furniture, great pillows, flooring, windows, bedding -- all in my budget. They gave me a wonderful binder with a proposal that was given to me before any deposit. They never even cashed my deposit until the project was over. I told them how much I was willing to spend and they told me exactly how much the entire project would cost before we even started and THEY DELIVERED. The place look amazing. My friends and family rave about how beautiful it looks and I can't stop enjoying what they have done. I can't say enough good things about the work they did. It was exactly the style I wanted, with great quality pieces, and the most organized business. I LOVE them. Please don't hire MMD unless you like to burn your cash.

We went with Sheri after seeing a home she had staged in another community that our agent was listing. She understood the target demographic and staged appropriately. Was it the decor I would choose? No, but that's not what I was looking for - staging doesn't represent reality, it represents an ideal or aspiration that speaks to a buyer. It needs to reinforce your home's uniqueness and qualities. Our home sold above asking price and within three weeks of listing - was it Sheri's stage? I'll never know but I have no regrets. Fast in, fast out, personable service and reasonable cost.

Fernando came over and immediately got to work moving furniture, rugs, lighting, tables, artwork and plants around to create intimate, cohesive living "zones" including a more intimate conversation area, a more cohesive dining space and an entry area. Best of all, he made me realize what a great focal point I had in my living room -- a panoramic skyline view! He also helped me choose paint colors for all the rooms in my condo. For me, this was an intimidating task. Fernando made it an easy process by pulling out colors from my favorite artwork. I thought I'd have to spend thousands of dollars to hire an interior decorator, but Fernando was able to provide exactly what I was looking for at a fraction of the cost. And, he's a fantastic person! So much fun to work with....a real pleasure.

Danny was extremely thorough and detail-oriented, keeping us focused but also positive. He helped us map out the scope of work we wanted to pursue with contractors, keeping in mind both practical elements like where the light switches should be, and higher level issues such as what would increase value for resale. He took detailed notes after every discussion, dutifully tracking our oft-changing minds as to what we wanted to do. I wish everyone I encountered was so professional!! I can't recommend Danny enough.

Dan was instrumental in integrating all the stuff I already had with the stuff I needed to make the new house MY home. And there was a lot: new tile for the downstairs bathroom, family room, and entryway; new window treatments for the entire house; new bedroom furniture for the master suite; new furniture and area rug for the family room; a new built-in cabinet next to the fireplace; et cetera. The best part of working with Dan is that he knew all the best places for getting high-quality furnishings that made the house look sophisticated and inviting without breaking the bank. For instance, he took me to Home Depot (!) and guided me through their selection of window treatments; the ones we chose look sensational in the living room and dining room. The bedroom curtains came from Bed, Bath and Beyond. (Dan even gave me his BB&B coupons so that I could get a better deal.) I could make a list of all the helpful ways Dan made the process easier, but the upshot is that if you and Dan agree there's something that you need, he will find something great for you at the best possible price. Now, of course, if there are considerations for you other than price, Dan is more than able to accommodate that direction. For instance, I prefer "made in America" wherever possible, and so for our furniture needs we went to Room and Board and found pieces that were perfect for me. The long and short of it is that Dan is a skillful designer who knows when to listen and when to gently steer you away from an unfortunate design decision. I'd gladly work with him again, and I thank him for all his assistance in making my new home handsome, comfortable and easy to live in.
