She had a real sense of how to understand my style but also suggest options I might not have thought of. Gina's talents and skills are many and well honed. She has great intuition on what to spend on and what to save on. Her ability to manage the project was on point. I always felt she was in control and had my best interest at heart. Lastly, her taste level and eye for design made the space very special and I am so thankful to her. She is a joy to work with and I highly recommend Gina to everyone I can.

The GRD team was great during my long awaited kitchen remodel. Working with Gina was a breeze, and…read moreshe took me through the process with ease and encouragement, every step of the way. Appointments were prompt and everything stayed on schedule and on budget. I was happy to work collaboratively with her in the final decision process and I'm beyond ecstatic with the finished product. Her esthetic is the reason I hired her and she heard me and helped me narrow down my sometimes scattered ideas, (so many options!) My kitchen remodel is essentially an entire house remodel since we opened the floor plan. The final styling was fantastic as well, and I feel like I live in the pages of a lifestyle magazine ;-) Thank you!!! *It's called Pretty In Pink on the site. Go see!

Jill stepped in to help me with my tee-tiny 400 sq foot apartment, which has a lot of logistical…read morechallenges. Furniture needed to fit together just right, and available storage was very limited. I also wanted to refresh my interior style and replace all my IKEA pieces with better-made ones, but was also working on a budget. After getting a total brain cramp from trying to figure it out on my own, I reached out to Jill after reading her great Yelp reviews. Jill's thoughtful design of my limited space (literally, down to the inch) allowed me to fit in all the seating and storage space I need and still keep the space airy and open. Her knowledge of the best stores, manufacturers and styles for my vision and budget ended up saving me a lot of money and headaches in the long run. We've had a lot of fun working together with Pinterest boards, sharing ideas and looking at colors. Not only has Jill helped with this project enormously, but she taught me so much about decorating and design in the process. And her price is certainly fair for a professional service. I've been recommending Jill to every friend who moves in to a new place. If you're considering getting help with your home, definitely call her for a consultation!

We really lucked out in finding Jill when we moved to the city a few months ago. We arrived with…read morebasically nothing and had no idea what to do with our new apartment. For weeks we lived on an air mattress and plastic folding chairs, then one day we found Jill's awesome website and gave her a call. She came over, saw our sad state of affairs and got to work immediately. From the beginning, Jill really got what we liked and didn't like, helped us organize and clarify our sometimes vague and scattered ideas, and was very accurate in estimating our costs and timeline. She was hands-on and responsive, and she took a lot of pressure off us by arranging painters, handymen and furniture orders. Jill is so great at what she does. In a short period of time, she transformed our ho-hum empty apartment into an awesome space that's totally comfortable yet always ready for a fancy party. We love having people over now! Thanks, Jill!

We recently remodeled our kitchen and used Humanity Home & Cabinetry for the kitchen design and…read morecabinetry. In late 2019, the company expanded into a huge new showroom in Santa Rosa. When we started working with them in the spring of 2019, they were in a tiny office with very limited abilities to showcase products. As a result, I had to do a lot of searching on the Internet to vet the cabinetry they were pitching. Not sure whether you can get into the new showroom at the present time due to COVID, but if so, you can easily see the lines they offer right at the showroom. Our designer Jessica Ivie was our primary contact point throughout our kitchen design and remodel. She has an excellent sense of color and is skilled at paint matching and finding colors that complement your existing decor. If you are looking for someone to tell you what to do, she is the designer for you. Jessica is extremely organized and skilled at follow-up, and both are characteristics that are absolutely indispensable in any remodel project. In fact, she provided more oversight for our project than our contractor did. I was a little worried that since Jessica was not a cook that our kitchen design might be lacking, but in fact we have been very happy with the new layout she created for our kitchen. During the COVID shelter-in-place, we've had plenty of time to vet the new layout. We are enjoying the ease of access to previously inaccessible items, the beautiful backsplash, better lighting with under cabinet as well as overhead lights, warm colors, and clean design. The kitchen has gotten a workout and has delivered beyond our expectations. The only really negative aspect of working with HH&C occurred late in the project. Jessica helped us select a gorgeous glass backsplash that was from a brand new backsplash vendor. Much later in the project Jessica also suggested we get matching glass switch plates. Unfortunately, because she had never used a glass switch plate in a previous project, she did not realize that the flat backs of glass switch plates require a different approach to cutting out the openings for the plates in the backsplash or a different installation of the electrical boxes. As a result the glass plates could not be installed flush with the backsplash, which the electrician said would make them likely to break. The resolutions would have been costly that late in the project. Instead we opted to use different switch plates and asked for a refund. We did receive a refund for the plates, but Jessica's boss Kelly Silverstein made it clear she was not happy about giving us a refund. She suggested we wanted a refund because we didn't like the plates instead of acknowledging that HH&C had recommended a product that would not work given what the contractor's expectations for switch plates had been up to that point. We were shocked at her reaction about the refund since the refund amounted to less than 1% of our total purchases from HH&C for cabinets, backsplash, sink, etc. I have no doubt that our contractor invested considerably more in time and labor to rectify the whole switch plate issue than HH&C did in providing us with a small refund. By contrast, our contractor did not charge us any additional fees. It was a shame that we walked away from HH&C with such a bad taste in our mouth right at the end of the project. I would highly recommend Jessica as a designer, but because of our perception of Kelly's lack of customer service, I lowered the number of stars for HH&C from 5 to 4.

She is able to mix more expensive with lower cost items to pull together stunning rooms. She worked on our home and then we had her do our healthcare office. She really captured the medical spa feel I wanted and our patients give us so many compliments. People always ask what color is this or where did you buy this. She is very pleasant to work with and really gets what you are trying to accomplish. She listens and changes course when it is needed. Dianne is efficient with her time and her ability to pull together a room from paint color to décor is a skill I wish I had. I would absolutely recommend her for either a room or your whole house! I plan to have her come back and help with more projects soon.
