My husband and I worked with Anna to help us with the design of our home remodel. She helped us…read morewith many of the design decisions within our home, including flooring, countertops, paint, wallpaper, lighting, window treatments, and furniture. She listened to our preferences in style esthetic and helped narrow down the millions of options out there to a select few in order to simplify the decisions we had to make. It was so helpful to have someone do the legwork for us as we both have very busy work schedules that would have precluded us from doing the necessary research to put together a great style esthetic for our home. We enjoyed working with Anna for a number of reasons but I would say the most important are - she truly listened to our needs and she worked well with our contractor. She is still a great resource for us when we have questions. We highly recommend Anna!

I recently completed a two-bathroom remodel with Builder Boy and was connected with Emma (she's the…read morebest!!) at Satin and Slate for the design. Emma has been extremely helpful (even helpful with questions construction related that are outside of the design process). She made the selection of materials so easy, as you know this can be an overwhelming task with so many options! BUT Emma understood what my design style is and gave me peace with the selection process and I absolutely LOVE the outcome! Emma's professionalism and attention to details was and is such a blessing and made my first experience remodeling that much easier! When the time comes around again to start another construction project (kitchen) I will not hesitate to use Emma and Satin and Slate again. - A HUGE THANK YOU!

Satin & Slate did a top notch job and operates like a much larger firm. The professionalism and attention to detail were second to none. Emma was at the worksite regularly to make sure that her design was coming to life and everything was going in as planned. Even when things happened and we had to pivot (through no fault of Satin & Silk) Emma made the process seamless. We are very happy with our new addition and we could not have done it without Emma and her team. We highly recommend Emma and Satin & Slate!

ALL my expectations were exceeded and then some. Christine Stahlberg and Taylor Langos were the "Dream Team" to turn my house remodel into an updated trendy property that appeals to all while still accommodating some details I wanted to include. With the recent inflation woes and supply chain issues I was very worried about turn around times and prices for materials but CMS expertly shopped for high quality materials and used expert craftsmen to deliver superb results. You have to trust CMS with the process, vendors and materials they select because they are true pros in this business, believe me you will be happy. I highly recommend CMS and you can reach out to them for my contact info should you wish to hear more.

Sommer arranged everything from design to tear down and construction to completed project. Highly recommend her!!! The Sun Room was a mess -cement floor mismatched wall panels and trim no lights no fan and most of all the sagging ceiling.

She also made us a street number sign and a jewelry rack from the walls that were removed so original broken parts made into memorable keep sakes........here talent is far above anyone we have worked with before. Basically, our whole house was designed and set up from furniture, oh yea she made custom art works featuring our dogs so sweet in vintage style that we love. I can't say enough we are so happy we hired her, and every project we need for now on will go to her and we will recommend Sommer to everyone we meet.

She created a beautiful, relaxing space that accommodated our personal preferences and shined due to her vision and creativity.

I strongly encourage you to speak with her regarding your next project.

Your first decision is do you want or need a designer. Since we were designing and building our…read morehouse from scratch, we decided we did. And, at the end, we were very glad we did. In hindsight, the thousands of decisions big and small are made better when there is an experienced eye involved. We found that experienced eye in Jamie Roddy of EdenLA located in Manhattan Beach, CA When you hire an Interior Designer, what are your expectations? Do you want to give them some guidelines, get them to know you and then have them come up with recommendations? Or, do you want to work alongside of them in a collaborative manner? Jamie is equally good at either approach. In our case, we liked to collaborate with her in real time. My wife and I would sit with her in her studio in front of a big screen monitor. We would surf the web pulling together the furniture, materials, colors and accents that we all agreed upon. In some cases, she gently "guided" to consider things that on our own we might not have done. Now that we see those decisions in place, we're glad we were gently pushed to expand our thinking about what we wanted. You may not have the time to spend the time like that, but we did and we loved the outcome of the process.

She led us through a kitchen reno, a game room and bathroom addition, and a living room design. I should mention, I have a creative imagination, but no ability to pull it off! She's fantastic in helping guide me to see my ideas become reality, but with elegance and taste. What I struggle with for years, she figures out in seconds (I am not exaggerating). She's fantastic!

I was having issues with the mechanism of my custom drapes and wanted to finally get them fixed. I…read moresearched for people who worked on draperies within my area and found Torrance Draperies and was impressed by the yelp and google reviews. I called and spoke to a woman about my issue with my drapes. She informed me that her main guy that would go out to look at it was out until August 16th, however she had someone else that may go out. I said I had pictures of the situation and she asked me to send them over which I did. 10 days later, with no response, I followed back up. She remembered our conversation and said she did receive the pictures I sent over. She said she will have "her guy" look at the pictures and will call me back that day, which was the 9th of August. Today, as of August 13th, she has not called me back. Instead of leading me on, if it was too small of a job for them, they could have just told me that. This is not the way you conduct business with a customer.

I was referred to Jane at Torrance Draperies by a couple of friends and boy was I glad that I did…read more We wanted to get some custom draperies for our son's room and some shades for our newly built extension room which serves as a dining room. We contacted Jane and agreed to initially start out with a meeting at her store to share our ideas and learn more about her business. At our meeting, we felt that Jane was so knowledgeable, friendly, and really listened to our wants. On a side note, we noticed the 'Certificate of Appreciation' by the LAPD (see photo) for her contributions to the Rampart Division's Children's Room. We thought that was a nice reflection of who Jane is and further confirmed our thoughts of her. So we decided to have Jane come to our place to start the process. Jane came out to conduct measurements and brought cool sample fabrics for our son's room in which we decided to go with a vivid and colorful pattern with comic-like birds which brightened up the room and went with some modern pull-down shades that complement the dining room perfectly. A couple of things I noticed is that (1) Jane offered her expertise and suggestions along the way to give us some better ideas and (2) was never pushy or forceful throughout the interaction. Jane is a very sweet individual and works very collaboratively with the customer to ensure that he/she is getting exactly what they want down to every last detail. The installation was handled very efficiently and the results are perfect! Even though they may be a small, family-owned business, Jane has been in the business for over 40 years and you can tell why. The results were so perfect that we have Jane and Torrance Draperies back to drape my in-laws new home! I know draperies can feel like buying a car in that you want to customize them to the very last detail according to your taste. Give Torrance Draperies a call and you'll see why they have been around for so long!
