We had moved into an old 20s building and needed to make sure the art could endure the thick wall during an earthquake causing as little damage done to the walls, since we are renting. The sizes of the pieces range from small to 8ft long and no task was too big or too time consuming. The mural over our staircase is very grand and Carlos got it done so fast and so evenly, I couldn't believe how seamless. It's most important to mention, our installation was scheduled during the very difficult fire season we had here in LA this January. Carlos was incredibly communicative during that time, as rescheduling was obvious and not a problem but it became clear that this family business means family and then business Not to mention a local hero for his local community at that time, look no further!

The response they received to completely reasonable questions was so unbelievably unprofessional and curt - see the attached screenshot which speaks for itself. I have never encountered this sort of treatment before and am grateful that we didn't get to the point where we entrusted them with their services. As a business that presumably works with high-value artwork, they have no right to respond to questions about insurance coverage in the dismissive manner that they did. Mistakes CAN happen, that's why insurance exists... why should someone trust a person who merely says "We do this every day and nothing is a problem" but can't provide the dollar amount that their insurance policy covers? Do not recommend under any circumstances especially if you're seeking installation of high-value works.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lucie from 22 Interiors, and I can't express how…read moreamazing the experience was. I knew from the moment I visited the website that THIS was the design team that would get me. But then I decided to procrastinate and mull over the idea of saving the consultation money and just doing it myself.....I used to believe I could handle interior design on my own, buying furniture piece by piece over time and never being satisfied with the results. THANK GOODNESS I decided to invest (actually quite affordable) Because, after two separate consultations with Lucie, my perspective has completely shifted. I will never attempt DIY interior design again--LOL. It truly takes a special eye to understand how dimensions, shapes, colors, and sizes all matter. Since working with Lucie, I've noticed a remarkable difference in the way my house feels and flows. Every piece of furniture she recommended has contributed to the overall alignment and harmony of my space. Lucie is an absolute pleasure to work with, and I can't recommend her enough. Investing in your home with 22 Interiors is worth every penny. I wasted WAY more money thinking I could do it alone or with some bs online program....You won't be disappointed - it's a professional and delightful experience from start to finish.

We both appreciated her honesty and willingness to let us know when she thought we should pivot our choices, but worked with us on how to make one of our (admittedly very ugly) dealbreakers work with the house. I truly can't recommend her enough.

Anna at Decolure was so incredible, professional, and brilliant in transforming my condo into a…read moredream property for sale, I need to share her talent with the world. I am convinced that her aesthetic work on the condo -- combined with a few refreshments that my contactor handled (fresh paint, new grout) -- elevated the realized sale price by multiple tens of thousands. Hiring Anna was the best expense I ever put into my home. I truly could not have found a better or friendlier stager for my first ever home sale. I found Anna through her 5-star Yelp reviews and her beautiful portfolio of past staging projects, and I saw her aesthetic (warm, modern, luxurious yet artistic, clean, bright) would suit my new-build modern condo and bring life into the space. So many designers are doing MCM or trendy vintage only, but Anna is truly versatile and knows how to amplify your space's existing virtues and maximize the home you have. When she was done staging my property, I was so in love with the space, I wanted to move back in and not sell it! In addition, Anna's price was more fair and competitive than any other stager I met with, and her team of movers were first-class professionals -- they completed the work in a quick one-day install and then completed a spotless removal once our sale closed. I didn't have to do anything to supervise (I was already out of state and my amazing real estate broker coordinated the whole project with Anna). More importantly, Anna generated desire and dreaminess for the home, which resulted in a realized sale price that exceeded my hopes. I truly cannot recommend Anna enough -- if I had another home to sell, or even a space to decorate, I would hire Anna again in a heartbeat and recommend her to all my friends. Talent, professionalism, a gifted aesthetic eye, and an unbeatable inventory of modern furniture and props -- Anna runs a gorgeous staging business and I feel so lucky she worked on my home.

Both times, buyers genuinely thought the homes were lived in because her staging made them feel so warm, cozy, and effortlessly livable. What sets Anna apart is the time and intention she puts into every space. She doesn't just stage. She studies the home, understands its flow, and creates a design direction that highlights its strengths. Her creative eye is truly a talent and it shows in every detail she brings to life. I've worked with many stagers before but after experiencing Anna's work, I won't be using anyone else. She takes great pride in what she does, she's efficient, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. I genuinely enjoy collaborating with her and recommend her to all my fellow agents. Her work elevates every listing.

Unfortunately, it received some damage requiring a good portion of it to be restored. Carole was recommended. It was a process and took much effort but she was able to restore the mural and what she was able to do was beyond belief. Some areas so little was left, but was able to keep the mural true to form. She is an incredible artist in her own right and we are very happy she consented to do this job.

This review is long overdue. 4 years ago I remodeled my bathroom. Coming from an interior design…read morebackground, I'm extremely particular about who I have work on my home. I put a lot of time, money and creativity into the remodel, and therefore I was very particular about who I wanted to work with me on it. I hired Carole to paint back in the details on a vintage, Asian TV cabinet, that I turned into a bathroom vanity. Needless to say this wasn't an easy job. The vanity was initially orange and black, however, I had it painted a light turquoise color. When this was done, it completely concealed all of the intricate detail work underneath it. My former faux painter tried to come in and repaint all of the details back in, however, wasn't able to. The vanity has raised figures on the doors, which take a very delicate touch to get just right. There's also intricate gold fretwork around the doors as well as on the sides. When Carole came in, we sat down together, and discussed how I wanted it to look. We went over colors, different shades of gold, the overall feel of it, etc. She painted in not only on the raised figures but also elaborate artwork on the doors as well. Luckily, I had taken pictures of the cabinet prior to having it painted, so she was able to reference the previous artwork, and not just duplicate it, but make it 100 times better! It turned out to be a masterpiece! It is one of the star attractions of the remodel. Everyone who sees the bathroom is absolutely starstruck at how unique it and beautiful it is, and Carole's expert hand was an integral part of why that is. I can't recommend her enough and if you're lucky enough to have her to work in your home, you'll feel the same way. Her skills are easily on par with those of the old world masters. I hope to work with her again in the future, as I have a couple of projects in mind that I would like her to bring to life.Thanks again, Carole. You were a joy to work with.

We can't rave enough about Kita Williams of KMW Interiors! We hired Kita to furnish and decorate…read moreour 5-bedroom contemporary Mediterranean home and redesign our backyard. After interviewing three other designers, Kita stood out for her exceptional style, ease of collaboration, and cost-effectiveness. Kita's talent for crafting warm and inviting spaces shines through in every aspect of her work. Her dedication to understanding her clients' tastes, aesthetics, & budgets is unparalleled. She presents options quickly, works with her client on revisions, and then sources high-quality materials at reasonable prices. Kita's expertise in software and traditional design methods ensures that clients can visualize their finished space. Kita expertly managed custom work throughout our home, leveraging her network of skilled vendors for everything from custom furniture, to re-upholstery, to art framing. She designed our family room sofa & formal living room pieces to fit our vision perfectly, & her vendors delivered high-quality results quickly & within budget. Notable other projects include a custom wood sofa table (which we love for family movie nights) and a seamless Murphy bed design in our guest room that looks like it came with the house, as well as a full renovation and re-design of our powder bathroom. She also transformed our wine cellar into a multi-purpose drink space, perfectly executed by her team. Kita's work extended beyond the interior, as she oversaw our backyard renovation, selecting a contractor, designing the space, and choosing materials and furniture. Her attention to detail and ability to troubleshoot (inevitable) issues ensured a seamless & on-time completion. The result is an incredible outdoor space perfect for intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining that we will enjoy for years to come. Kita's design services truly gave us our dream home. We highly recommend her exceptional talent, work ethic, and dedication to clients.
