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!

She came over for a two-hour consultation and did the following: * recommended I redo the hardwood floors and paint - then a few weeks later recommended the stain to use. * We went on the computer - not to high end sites but sites such as Wayfair and Overstock and chose furniture, lights, rugs, a kitchen island, etc. * She told me what furniture to redo, get rid of, etc. When the above flooring and painting was finished and furniture in, she came back - and like a whirlwind - placed furniture so that now I feel like I am living in a room from House Beautiful! ........and all for a total of a 3 hour consultation. She is amazing! I wish you could see the before and after. Again, she is amazing!

Well, she recommended gutting the kitchen, adding walls, redoing my stairs, and I don't know how much! That was just the downstairs!

Well, my senses came back to me, wait, this is a sellers market in Marin County, right? I spent over a grand with nothing to show for it. So, no, I cannot recommend Kathleen Hallin.

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.

We are so happy that we engaged Jentry McGraw as our lead design consultant on our new home…read moreconstruction! The process was straightforward. - Jenny first took the time to understand our preferences (actually, helped us learn what we liked!). For each design decision, several selection options were presented, at various price points. Once our selections were made, she really worked to make sure that the delivered items and as-built installations were executed as intended - working with our contractors (pushing and insisting!) when the result was not up to par or as designed. This was invaluable, as we were living on the opposite coast during construction! Jentry McGraw helped us with selection of every interior and exterior color and finish, with flooring, cabinetry, plumbing fixtures, lighting, tile, appliances, floor coverings and furniture. A bonus, my wife joined Jenny and one of her staff members on their annual North Carolina showroom tour, spending a couple of days seeking inspiration for the key furniture and decor pieces!

We had not previously used a designer on our small home renovation projects, but knew that we…read moredidn't have the skill set to tackle our newly-completed downstairs remodel without help. We found Jenny and her team via her online portfolio, and it was immediately clear that we hit the jackpot with her. Our project included removing a weight-bearing wall to open up the kitchen and dining room, and expanding the kitchen into the adjacent laundry room and powder room, significantly altering the layout of our downstairs. We also replaced the downstairs flooring and lighting, and converted a wood burning fireplace into a beautiful focal point with a built in gas fireplace. When we saw the value that Jenny brings to a project, we also renovated 3 bedroom closets, and replaced baseboard, trim, paint, and fixtures in the primary bedroom. Jenny and her team are beyond amazing. They organized an extensive scope of work, clarifying who was responsible for each step, whether builder, her team, or client. She followed up on every detail, handled all the vendors, and kept to the ambitious timeline. Jenny quickly got a sense of our taste, and presented beautiful design options each step of the way. We feel our final project is truly ours, reflecting us perfectly, though we never had to go to a tile store or home furnishing shop, which we had clarified was our preference. The Jentry McGraw team was on-site weekly during construction, and Jenny used her excellent people skills and rapport with our builders to settle for nothing short of excellence. This included fine attention to detail and positioning of built-in features, things that I could not envision in the building phase, but definitely would have noticed being askew or off-center in the final build. We are absolutely thrilled with our final project, and know without a doubt that we could not have accomplished it without Jenny and her team. We feel great about having invested in a designer to guide our project. We'll use Jenny and her team for any of our renovations going forward; they are absolutely awesome!
