Michelle took the time to understand each of our individual styles and what we wanted our space to feel like, blending all of our unique preferences seamlessly into the design. And, it wasn't an easy task with the differing opinions and preferences in the family. She balanced creativity, practicality, and our constraints to bring our dreams to life. Michelle's ideas encouraged us to step just outside our comfort zone, resulting in a home that feels both unique and authentically "us." Throughout the process, Michelle and her team were organized, professional, and detail-oriented. They provided options at different price points and were always mindful of our budget, which we really appreciated. Communication was always clear and prompt. She stayed engaged with us and the construction company, flexibly adapting to the inevitable curve balls that came our way. We did face some real difficulties selecting a general contractor and major bumps along the way with different subcontractors, and Michelle risked offering insights from her depth of experience in a very respectful manner to guide us. She remained attentive to every last detail and was an advocate for us throughout the whole design and build process. We know we couldn't have gotten the house we now have at the amount we spent without MDID. We loved working with Michelle and her team. We know we saved time, money, and our sanity, and we feel very spoiled living in our beautiful home! It's gorgeous. We highly recommend working with MDID.

Definitely a huge step up from me buying a pre-designed set at a retail store! They're money very well spent in exchange for less stress and a beautiful home, and they're great about selecting pieces to fit into our budget for each project, too... without it looking like we set a budget!

Seattle Staged to Sell markets themselves as highly professional, but our experience was a case…read morestudy in arrogance and denial of responsibility. They took multiple pieces of our personal furniture and décor during de-staging and then acted as though it was somehow our fault for not reporting it fast enough. The missing items included sentimental pieces that were never returned. What's astonishing is how little effort was made to repair the situation. Rather than prioritizing an apology or proactive resolution, their first communication was a demand for payment -- while our belongings were still missing. Even once items were eventually located, no meaningful concession was offered. They refused to acknowledge the seriousness of their mistake and minimized it at every turn. Blaming the customer ("you should have told us sooner") while holding onto our property is unacceptable. A reputable company would take ownership, apologize without conditions, and offer fair compensation. Instead, SSTS nickel-and-dimed us, hid behind their contract, and shifted blame. If you want to deal with a company that talks down to its clients, charges top dollar for mediocre work, wastes your time, and shows zero accountability when they make serious mistakes, then this is the staging company for you. For everyone else: stay far away.

When they de-staged our home they ended up taking several of our own expensive items (including an area rug, floor lamps, vases, and sculptures), those same standards were not applied. This was especially disconcerting because we were told that during staging, SSTS would not move existing furniture under any circumstances, yet during the de-staging moved a steel frame four-post bed to take our area rug from upstairs in our bedroom. SSTS prides itself as highly professional and reputable, but our experience was the exact opposite. The owner, Shirin, imposes strict rules on homeowners with language in the contract that heavily protects the company, but does not take ANY responsibility for damages to the homeowners property or for missing items. Once notified that they had taken our things, many weeks went by without any attempt to make things right. Instead of an apology or resolution, the first communication we received from them was a reminder that our invoice was unpaid. Ultimately, most but not all of our items were located and returned to us, with the exception of a sentimental sculpture and a wall mirror. I had requested that our total invoice be reduced for the inconvenience and was told no. No concession was offered to me for the major inconvenience, and I was told I can follow up with them in "court or litigation." Upon push back, SSTS agreed take $250 off of our nearly $10,000 bill. Based on our experience, I would not recommend Seattle Staged to Sell given the lack of accountability and professionalism experienced.

I always have a pretty good idea of what I like and how I want the space to feel, but the execution part is always tricky for me! That said, I was really hesitant to use a designer for fear of 1: not seeing eye to eye design-wise, and 2: being over-charged for a service that I would be only somewhat satisfied with. Despite my reservations, a friend of mine introduced me to Keri and I instantly knew she would be a great fit. First of all, she is pretty much the nicest human being on the planet. I'm not kidding. And I could tell that she had a great sense of style and design by the way she dressed (is that shallow?). ;) As it turned out, Keri was and has been everything I HOPED a designer would be: very open to hearing my ideas, and yet decisive and clear about what might and might not work in a specific space (I tend to be wishy-washy and can never make up my mind); incredibly creative and resourceful; willing to work with any budget; and just extremely easy to work with. As the mother of a toddler, she also understands the specific needs that we as parents have in terms of furniture that is both aesthetically great AND functional. I am so happy with the work she has done for us thus far.. We have almost our entire house completed, and I have been having a blast every step of the way. There are not many services that I can honestly say this about, but Keri has been worth every penny. Overall, she has saved us hundreds of dollars, not to mention time! We'll continue to use her until our house is finished, and I'll recommend her to all my buddies.

We bought our home in June and it needed some serious TLC so we asked Remont to quote the job along with several other contractors. David and Vicktor arrived on time, they measured, took detailed notes and were incredibly knowledgeable, plus they were able to do the work in our crazy timeline. They had their quote back to me that evening, which is what they'd promised. After receiving the other quotes and experiencing the professionalism of Remont Construction we decided to go with them. They painted the entire interior of our home and did a great job. At one point the painters painted one of the bathroom ceilings the same color as the bathroom (yikes), after telling them I didn't want any ceilings painted. I called Vicktor and he made sure it was fix with no fuss or strings attached, and it looks great. Remont refinished our hardwood floors and extended the hardwood into the dining room after removing the carpet. They also removed the carpet and old tile in our bathroom, laying beautiful new tile perfectly. We also switched out all the old bi-fold doors for sliding ones, Vicktor's team painted the doors the same color as our trim and did an amazing job overall.

I am extremely disappointed with their design, which caused us significant frustration and added…read moreexpense. I would not recommend this firm to anyone. They specified 7' interior and exterior doors, which must be special-ordered and cost nearly three times more than standard 6'8" doors. By the time this issue was identified, the house was already framed. We requested that the contractor lower the door openings from 7' to 6'8", which required additional materials and labor. In construction, any change order means redoing completed work, resulting in unnecessary additional costs. The bathroom windows are also oversized for the rooms. No privacy. Additionally, the drawings were inconsistent across the three bathrooms. In two bathrooms, the toilets were correctly centered at 18", but in the third bathroom the toilet was centered at only 15", even though there was sufficient space for 18". The plumber had to move the toilet 3", which again resulted in added expense.

This review doesn't exist for any reason other than to let others know of our life-altering…read moreexperience from trusting AIRD with our home; a fact-based caveat emptor of sorts. An outcome of trusting AIRD is delayed retirement to fund remediation of design/construction defects so our 1000sf house can function w/o long-term structural, water & other damage. AIRD's reviews & ratings on this site as well other sites are compromised by reviews made by employees of the general contractor she collaborated with). (Rebuttal to Jan2023 reply: Alexandra Immel did not fully cover costs related to one of her firm's erroneous omissions. We were still stuck w a $3K balance for one subcontractors. We paid for/endured delays due to her employee's other omissions. Wasting $3K+, extra months of double rent/mortgage, do-over construction materials & labor is a tiny expense relative to our total cost of remediating issues that originate AIRD's design (& omissions), as well as trusting the contractor Alexandra so wholeheartedly recommended for executing AIRD's plans. The client should never need to research City construction energy code when they're paying professional designers. But I was forced to. Like most people, I *want* to give good reviews, want to believe that when several hundred thousands of dollars is being borrowed & spent, it's spent it wisely. In reality, some people will allow emotions to positively bias their reality of such a huge investment, their reviews, enable excuse-making for individuals they find personally amiable, overlook the aspects that were professionally lacking. Unlike them, for this project, I invested time & money not to make a new "friend" to forgive, but to have a home with better space & small 250sf addition for a better quality of life. The cure is almost always worse than doing things right w the right people from the start. We had/hv no choice but to remediate ASAP. The time to minimize risk of preventable rot (of materials Alexandra insisted on), leaks & other defects is upon discovery of such design defects, not 5-10 years down the road which is when they would have shown up in the form of compromised structural integrity (final product & plans were evaluated by several design/construction pros). There's no space for "positivity bias" in this case no matter how much benefit of the doubt I wanted to extend. When a project involves moving out/in, (14mos of gas guzzling time-suck commuting is more than adequate for adding 250sf & a bathroom), mortgage $, it's critical staff hv adequate skill, knowledge & attn to structural/enviro detail, be *up-to-date* on critical skills/issues involved (appropriate materials, enviro impact, bldg & energy codes). Also essential is a genuine leader of a team who also truly values the time & financial resources of their client. AIRD fell short in all these respects. I'll never forget the comment spoken out loud at an early zoom meeting where Alexandra Immel literally said, in her own words w/ a smile, "money is cheap" (interest rates were lower; conversation is on record). The standard *looking* design plans AIRD produced were so lacking in detail, especially at critical structural junctures that the builder Alexandra recommended could not to execute her firm's designs, w/o trial & error & multiple do-overs, as if they were learning on the job & lacked the experience Alexandra Immel claimed they had. They'll naturally blame each other but absent legal action, the client is stuck w/ the total cost. Cascades of decisions are based on upstream decisions & good data, visual renderings. In our case they were asked for & promised at the start. But were never delivered in a timely manner PRIOR to critical decision points. A logical *looking* workflow on paper from a designer means nothing w this frequency of omissions (incl on plans signed off by the then lone registered architect in the firm at that time & caught by the city inspector). Any builder is dependent not just on designers' plans, but also knowledge of & respect for city code, as well as time-tested experience. Per WA records for just the last 7 yrs, the builders so heartily, *gushingly* recommended by Alexandra Immel had numerous safety violations & violations involving unlicensed (in our case, also incompetent) workers. Per state court records the builders also have 16 cases listed, between the state SUPREME, Appellate courts plus superior courts of at least two counties. When I checked with the state, spoke with Olympia, Immel's own registration attempt as an architect stalled out over two decades ago. Which would be fine had she kept up with the ever-evolving field of residential design (sub 4000sf builds don't require registered architects). I wasn't looking for inspiration, just competency, honesty. What I got was, & is still to this moment, a nightmare of a mess to tediously undo & clean up at a cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars, robbing us of years of quality of life.
