We met with Lisa to discuss ideas on remodeling our 1990s-era bathrooms because we were unsure of how to proceed. Lisa was able to present us a new vision, rescaling our plans and saving us a significant amount of money while still achieving our goal of creating an elegant, updated look and enhancing the function of the spaces. The savings on our bathroom remodels will allow us to embark on other redecorating projects that we thought were beyond our reach. We are thrilled! Lisa has amazing insights into melding function with beauty, and she has an appreciation of and respect for collectibles and antiques, and how best to display them to tell our family story. She has extensive resources to help us realize our vision. We are looking forward to continuing to work with Lisa to enhance our entire home, thereby enriching our family life. We are so pleased to have her as our guide in this journey! Kristine W.

We have on 3 occasions over the last 7 years and have never regretted using them. They are professional, knowledgeable, and fun to work with. We always look forward to our next visits with Sam! She is an absolute delight and has a very keen eye for her designs. We sold our house in Wake Forest in a day, following an upgrade to our kitchen. On that project she helped us with the contractors the layout design the new appliances, granite countertops, cabinets. Everything from A to Z! She and her team then followed us to Wilmington on a new purchase and performed her magic to improve the interior design and updates. We sold that house 18months later in 8 hrs from listing!!! We moved back to Wendell for our retirement home and she has helped us transform a 1977 Rancher into a modern beauty. Trust us, get rid of the stress and engage these professionals, who will inspire and amaze you with their capabilities, insight and knowledge. You can't go wrong in working with them.

I worked with Lavish for over a year on a major remodel and would never recommend them. Jenny is nice and I love her design aesthetic but I found them disorganized, unreliable, and dishonest.

My kitchen and laundry room are GORGEOUS but it was not worth the headache, I am very sorry to say.

The long time was because I wanted to make all selections of furniture and interior design. I then would pass a dozen or more choices of say a sofa past his experienced judgment and would receive a Yea or Nay.

He also saved me a lot of money from not buying things which really did not contribute to the look I was trying to create. Mike has a wonderful eye for color. I especially liked his colors for walls which included different colors in the same room and stripes for certain rooms!

My husband and I moved to Cary from south Florida last year. We rented a house, intending to stay…read morethere while we scoped out the area - but then this fantastic townhouse came on the market and we had to buy it. Next question: What to put in it? It's much bigger than our rental house - and much nicer. That said, we didn't want to spend crazy money on new furniture (we've made that mistake before) - but on the other hand, we wanted nice stuff (i.e., not Rooms to Go). We recognize our limitations, so I searched for someone who could help us with our new home - and luckily enough found Amy. She first went to our rental house (where we were still living) to see what we already had, get an idea of our colors, artwork, etc., then went to our new (empty) home. We were, frankly, amazed at some of her suggestions - amazed just because they *never* would have occurred to us. As soon as she saw our (very large) master BR suite, she noted that there was ample space to fit our existing living room furniture. She also suggested that we have the mantle in the living room (which was crazy high) lowered. ??!! We did not know such a thing was even possible. Amy had great recommendations for - and accompanied us on - furniture shopping trips (can't say enough about Cooper's - must get to their review next). She was also great for the little stuff - positioning furniture, helping organize the kitchen, etc. We could not have had a better experience and would not hesitate to seek her advice again.

When I reached out to Amy and told her what I needed, she made it happen! Finding pieces in one room that would be better in another; creating flow where corners or awkwardness had previously interrupted it; and most importantly, making this brand new space feel like our home. Working with Amy is quite a treat! She's professional, detail oriented, and has resources for whatever a home and family might need! Having an understanding of different perspectives in decor is a HUGE plus, too, as a simple mention of feng shui (which I know nearly nothing about) opened up a whole new conversation about placement of plants and honorary placement of our dearly departed pets! She has amazing energy, practical sensibilities, and a keen understanding of family functioning so she can help turn a house into a home. BIG SIGH! I adore my home now!
