JC is an exceptionally talented interior designer. I hired JC for an extensive remodel, and it was…read morethe first time I had worked on such a large-scale project. She was on board immediately, starting with the architectural design. She helped with critical decisions such as rearranging the floor plan, roofline, kitchen layout, windows, skylight placements, etc. She has a fantastic eye for color and textures and singularly worked on tile selection for bathrooms, fireplaces, hardwood floor color, kitchen cabinet color scheme, and the sourcing involved. Where JC shines is in creating mood boards. These helped me understand the overall feel of the interiors. She gets product availability timelines and your budget constraints, and I completely trusted her judgment on scale/proportion and product selection. When everything came in and placed where it needed to be---the result was simply stunning. The home feels like it came out of a design magazine. I recommend JC without ANY reservations---you would be lucky to have her on your team!

Our bedroom suite has been transformed into a peaceful retreat that we enjoy every day!

I appreciated her intro email and trying to get to know us more as far as our home/design style- I think it made the whole process flow a lot easier. I can't tell you how many times over the past few months we have referred back to the picture or her emails for links & the color choices to start finalizing the exterior. I'm so grateful for her and so happy with our decision to hire, Heather!

Heather Palmer Design did an outstanding job for us. We have a 14 year old home that was still…read morestuck in the earth tone browns of the Tuscan Renaissance era that construction design loved so much in the early 2000's . Our whole neighborhood seems to be painted in one shade of brown to another. I learned that the HOA Design Review Committee would actually prefer to maintain this look rather than let individual homeowners begin the process of updating the look of their homes to a more current design and color palate. Consistency within the individual neighborhoods of our development were apparently more important than the increase in value that continually updating your home to current design themes can accomplish. This is where engaging Heather to put forth a comprehensive application to do something different than the neighborhood had seen was key. She has worked with many different Associations and their Architectural Design Committee rules and personalities. Heather quickly put together and design and the related submission with all the required elements. They couldn't bounce our application for meeting their form requirements. It had to be a response based on actual design elements that we were asking for. Her package we submitted was outstanding. Before and after renderings. Each paint choice we wanted was supported by manufacturers paint chips. Each space on the before render that we wanted to change was clearly labeled with arrows and comments. Unfortunately our first submission was thoroughly rejected. It didn't seem they liked anything. I was upset and disappointed. this is where the importance of having Heather by my side became so clear for several reasons. First she kept me calm. It may feel personal she said but it's not. They are doing what they believe is right. So she kept me engaged and helped keep me positive. Then she took the initiative to reach out and discuss the reasons it was rejected and inquire what kind of adjustments they would suggest. The response was the basis for Heather's redesign and 2nd submission package. Eventually the 2nd review was completed and Approved! I can honestly say that without Heather and her expert guidance, unwavering support and aggressive stick to it attitude, I don't think we would have been successful. I can't give a stronger recommendation than I do here for Palmer Design and Heather. If you're contemplating accomplishing something a little different or aggressive and you know it may prove to be a challenge, sign her up! Having Heather on your Team is the winning play!

She and her coworker Michaela were always kind, responsive, and thoughtful, even dropping off a cute white pumpkin with cinnamon and a bulletin board of swatches that I still use for school. I did end up pausing the project for budget reasons, but I did go with several of her coastal luxe product picks and I am really happy with them. If you are ready to splurge a bit on higher end pieces and want genuinely sweet, honest people to guide you, Studio Pierre is a beautiful choice.

She was very patient and accommodating when I needed more assurance on what the end result would be. She listened very carefully to what I hoped to accomplish and what appealed to me, and had a knack for reigning me in when I was all over the place with different design concepts. She kept me focused, staying on track with our agreed concept and she was excited about creating something special and making a statement to add to the vibrancy of downtown Salinas. Her excitement was contagious and gave me such confidence needed to trust her completely. She encouraged me to be bold and not play it to safe, which is exactly what I would've done, and I know in the end it would been a terrible mistake that I would've regretted immensely. She had great ideas and resources for new materials I was not familiar with. I appreciated her taking the time to investigate all options, while being very conscientious of budget. The project turned out so beautifully and I continue to receive such positive response to it from so many people. I am so proud of this project and am profoundly grateful. She has such a breath of knowledge with paint color, and material selection and consistency in keeping with the overall design scheme. There were days I was apprehensive and wanting to play it safe, for example with color accent, and thankfully she reminded me that our goal was to create something modern and exciting, not safe and boring! Jana was such a joy to work with. She's a talented and exceptional designer as well as a wonderful human being, whom I consider a friend and I hope to do more projects in the future with her. Thanks a million Jana! Eternally Grateful!!
