There is a big difference between a good and an outstanding interior design firm. Working with…read moreDekorati Interiors for the past few years has given me an experience of the latter. I had a whole house to design: remodeling and furnishing over 2100 square feet from floor to ceiling, this was a daunting assignment. Fortunately, I found Dekorati Interiors through my realtor friend. Rati and her team went far beyond my expectations, not only in designing every inch of my home, but in managing the entire project. With her expertise, we remodeled my entire home. I wanted my space to have a feel of our heritage along with my love for traditional pieces. She was able to create a very classic design with exquisite sourced furnishing pieces and custom details. She has an amazing eye for design, color, composition, placement and how to engage you in her thorough process. Her Design meetings were very descriptive & detailed. One of my favorite parts is the staircase wallpaper depicting our rich Indian cultural element. In short she was able to capture and manifest everything I could've possibly desired in my renovated home. Each room feels comfortable and organic but is also perfectly in sync with an elegant aesthetic . She has a very detailed document for the Contractors to follow for the Remodel and renovation that makes all custom details very easy for them to follow and implement. But whenever there is a confusion or question she herself or someone from her team will be there to address it. However, what sets them apart is the customer experience you get. Everyone on her team is extremely professional, while being friendly and warm. They hold themselves to the highest standard and it is a joy to work with them. She has a design aesthetic which is very custom to the clients and helps make their dream home a reality.

We decided to hire an interior designer as we love a beautiful space, but were confused on where to…read moreget started. From the very beginning, Rati was able to understand our taste and requirements and started proposing the changes. The scope was big, as we decided to do entryway, kitchen, dining, powder room, living, loft and master bedroom. During our design review meetings (which ran 3 hours), she was well prepared with her design boards and presented us all the options, her preferences and cost details. Coming out of each meeting, we knew significant progress was made. She presented new ideas and designs that we would not have chosen or thought of ourselves. Rati was very responsive during the entire process - either through emails, texts, phone calls.  She has completely transformed our place. We needed more seating in our living area, and she was able to create that without making the area overly crowded. Our loft got transformed into a fully functional area for informal family seating. All you need is getting your contractors and have them implement the design/decor that Rati suggests.  As the project progressed, I wish she had brought up budget constraints in consideration. Final installation was hard to do on video calls, and we wished she was present. Given how she has transformed our place, we would still recommend Rati. She has impeccable taste and aesthetic sense. Anyone who comes to our abode cannot stop appreciating it.

We had a complicated situation since we were gutting and redoing a condo in Walnut Creek, while we were living in LA part of that time. Shawn worked at record speed getting permits, ordering materials, and communicating with us on hundreds of details. He uses high quality vendors and when we were in town, we were able to visit the carpet supplier, the workshop of the custom cabinet maker and the warehouse of stone to pick out stones for kitchen and bathrooms. Shawn always offered a range of options from less to more expensive. Shawn has a wonderful flare for design and helped us pick out furniture, fixtures etc and stopped us when we were going in the wrong direction. Yet he respected our sensibility and vision. He worked feverishly to get us into our house. His crew was working in a community with many rules and we were told repeatedly by neighbors how polite and respectful his crew was. Shawn was accessible and responded quickly to calls, often answering himself. He gave us an estimated time of completion and met it. He turned somersaults trying to meet the deadline. We came in on the original estimate. any additional costs were due to upgrades at our request. The quality of the work was outstanding. We have been in the house 3 weeks and can appreciate the excellence. Finally, we truly love our house because of the beauty of the design, the stone and woodwork that feels timeless and the excellence of the work done. Thank you

We had discussed a major remodeling of our outdated original master bathroom for a few years but…read morefelt overwhelmed with a project of this size. We just did not know where to begin. A thorough search LED us to Shawn and Create Interior Design. He came and met with us several times to explain his process and guide us through the entire project step by step. He drafted several design concepts based on our input and refined them until we were happy. After the basics had been locked down, it was much easier for us to choose specific tiles, colors and fixtures. The lifelike 3D renderings provided a clear vision of what the finished bathroom would look like, and removed all the guesswork and stress from this project. Shawn provided us with an extremely detailed list of every item and exact cost for the project including scheduling, permits, demo, construction, inspections and every material and fixture. It was clear that we were in experienced and competent hands. We chose to have Shawn and his team handle the project and complete all of the work period his crew was incredible. Each craftsman who worked on different parts of the remodeling was clearly a skilled professional with attention to detail and pride in their workmanship. They accommodated small changes and dealt with unforeseen issues as they occurred. Despite the scale and duration of this total remodel, they kept the work area much cleaner and more organized than we had expected. The finshed result is truly amazing. We now have a totally new bathroom which is the highlight of the entire house. We would highly recommend Create Interior Design and Shawn's thorough approach to designing, documenting, organizing and implementing your home remodeling dream project.

Monica proves herself to be not only the best stager but also the best human. Bravo to get positive attitude and helping nature.. Well my story started when we decided to put our house in the market for sale without knowing COVID is going to hit us all this badly. We signed the contract with a full service listing agent expecting they will take care of things from here.. little we knew the hell broke lose on us. Big shot listing company and their big shot furniture warehouse is closed for SIP. I asked the agent to find somebody else who has their own furniture And the answer was no, with not an effort to find somebody (lucky me).. anyhow I started searching and we found people ready to stage but they just wanted money with no assurance on what type of furniture they are going to put in (crazy isn't it).... after calling at least 15 stagers I spoke to Monica and she immediately put me at ease.. truthfully just hearing it from her that "don't worry, I got you" melted half of my stress. She came to my house next morning completely covered with PPE so still don't know what She looks like.. and like an angel looked at everything and shared her vision with me like an artist.. she not only understood my S***y situation But also offered me help given the environment. She did a fantastic job staging my property and delivered on her promise "I will make it look pretty".. I am lucky to find her and grateful that she picked up the phone that night.. I highly recommend her to anybody who is in need of a professional who is passionate, kind and flexible !!

This was my first time hiring a home stager, and Miranda Home Design was recommended by our real…read moreestate agent. Simply put, Miranda and her team are exceptional. I can confidently say her services are worth every penny. Miranda has an incredible eye for design and an innate ability to see the full potential of a space. The way she and her team decorated and arranged each element blew us away--we kept asking ourselves, "Why didn't we think of that?" She didn't just stage our home; she completely transformed its aesthetic. Every room felt elevated, cohesive, and intentional, yet still warm and inviting. She knew exactly how to highlight the home's best features, improve flow, and make each space feel both stylish and livable. Our listing stood out from comparable properties and made a strong emotional impression on everyone who walked through the door. Thanks in large part to Miranda's work, we received multiple offers and ultimately sold our home for top dollar. Her staging didn't just make the house look beautiful, it directly contributed to a faster sale and a stronger financial result.

Ron L. After using…read moreHenry's so called designed team and having him oversee the plans to build my custom home, I realized he and his team really lack knowledge in custom home building. So, Henry's team consist of people who do not directly work for him, therefore the designer who worked for us used Sketch-up and really lacked professionalism, AIA designs, construction concepts, building codes, and construction methods needed to push through planning department in order to pull a permit. Madison who performed our design argued with my wife when my wife specifically requested what she wanted. When you sign-on with Henry and the Sketch-up team, you are signing up for his team to design a project that will always go over budget. Their initial cost to perform a design doesn't include meetings, changes, and even many design errors that she made. All design problems and mistakes that THEY clearly make, turns out to be extra cost to cover Henry for his cost for the designer, which is $225.00 and hour. Example of one of many mistakes his designer Madison, drew the fireplace off center (by +1') of the vaulted ceiling then drew the chimney roof stack in the middle of the roof valley. When I asked about it, Henry emailed me telling me how to speak to the designed. It became apparent how their lack of construction knowledge turned into my problem. My new home design was raised floor from garage, so the designer drew steps from back level yard down into my garage. When I question it, Henry and Madison wanted to turn the issue into a now cost mistake that I had to pay for. As a builder and licensed contractor for over 30 years, I've seen and worked with many talented people, but Henry isn't one of them. Henry is propped up with social media reviews and you-tube videos showing his talents, but most people see through that once a problem occurs. Talented contractors have years of experience in construction methods, inspections call-outs, education through trade schools/college, hands on carpentry, and many regulatory issues that come up as a talented contractor. Brain S. who also provided a review was spot-on with who Henry is. Words like condescending, lack of integrity, and hard to work with barely scratch the surface of who you should not be working with. So, the real question is why so many good reviews, well that's easy to do these days. Get an email or pay monthly cost to Houzz and no telling how many five star reviews you can get. And as far as solid construction experience, don't confuse it with a great picture, AI generated drawings/videos that are easy to create. Go out and meet his construction team and vendors he works with. According to what Henry's licensed, it showed he doesn't carry workers compensation, so the brilliant team he hires are all subcontractors and probably his design team as well. As a builder for many years, experience through large commercial and residential projects, Henry lacks construction experience, and most importantly he isn't nice. I found his behavior and personality of a narcissist. If you're thinking about using this character- DO NOT. Please hire a professional AIA Architect and contractor with true construction design experience and a professional attitude.

A huge thank you to Henry and his team at Ridgecrest designs!…read more We spent almost 5 years trying to get permits to build a workshop/garage in our back yard only to get completely shut down by Cal Fire. With a two-acre lot and only one house, this should not have been a problem. Our last and final attempt was to find a local contractor that was familiar with the rules and regulations in our area. After a phone call with Henry, we had a good feeling that he could get the project going in the right direction. Ridgecrest Designs was able to carefully design a beautiful shop and detached garage that would comply with all the local requirements and give us a good chance with Cal Fire. Then the real work started! It took about a year of back and forth with several site visits from local agencies and Cal Fire, before we were able to get the required permits. This process involved a huge effort by Henry and his team. I believe this was successful because Ridgecrest could handle every aspect of project from concept to final sign off. After permits were acquired, the building process started. Once again, we were pleasantly surprised how smoothly and easily this process went. The upfront planning by the Ridgecrest team really paid off! As construction started, all the sub-contractors involved were very professional and efficient. Even the numerus on-the-fly changes we asked for, were handled quickly and easily. Throughout the whole process, communication was excellent. Any questions or concerns were handled quickly and professionally, every time. All permitting and legal requirements were completely handled by the Ridgecrest team. The end result is absolutely fantastic. We are very pleased with the finished product
