Antonella Cestone Interiors is without a doubt an expert in the interior design industry! We had an extremely rushed, large scale remodel project and Antonella was able to develop floorplans very quickly for us, long-distance, using our contractor's measurements, photos and videos of the areas. Her expert advice and foresight on how to get plans approved quickly, (we got ours approved in 30 min with our City!) and overall advice and vision for how the floor plan would be best designed for comfort and function was very impressive! She was incredible at consulting on tricky issues like where to move the skylights, and finish selections. I will definitely use her again for phase 2 of our home projects.

We had never worked with an interior designer before, but we knew an expert's assistance would be helpful given the amount of furniture and other decorating assistance we needed. Ali was a great listener and developed a vision for the house that fit both our lifestyle and tastes. She introduced us to pieces and patterns beyond those we would have found on our own. For each room, she provided multiple choices for furniture, patterns, rugs, etc.--at various price points and styles--and made sure that we could mix and match the different pieces while maintaining the overall vision for the room. In addition to her aesthetic talents, Ali was a huge help with logistics--placing orders, securing samples, and staying on top of suppliers and vendors. With the ongoing supply delays due to the pandemic, Ali kept us up to date as shipping and delivery dates changed. Overall, Ali is a lovely person and very easy to work with--highly communicative throughout the process. We will certainly keep her in mind for our future interior decorating needs!

Great work from Ali Horwitz. Look forward to seeing her continued success around DC and Baltimore.read more

THESE GIRLS GAVE ME THE KITCHEN OF MY DREAMS!! I have never used a professional designer before and…read morenow I am hooked. I met with Kim and her assistant designer feeling very unsure of what I wanted. They worked with me every step of the way. I spoke with them and showed them a few different styles I admired from Pinterest, along with my budget, and my expectations.. THEY BLEW ME AWAY!! I ended up with the most gorgeous custom cabinets and a more stylish kitchen than I could have ever imagined. So many times throughout the design process, I would start to second guess myself or feel overwhelmed and they were always just a call or text away. These girls guided me to the perfect kitchen- with never using a professional before, I had no clue what I was missing(!) We are now planning on using them to redo my home office and our master suite. Everyone that sees my kitchen wants a referral because it literally looks like something out of a magazine. I am so proud of my new kitchen and beyond thrilled with my experience with Dreamhouse Studios. 10 OUT OF 10.

I have never written a negative review before, however I feel compelled to do so for Dream House…read moreStudios of Annapolis, MD. I was told that Dream House Studios designers have a reputation for incorporating a client's existing furniture into their new home. This was important to me since I have being collecting antiques for 36 years. In addition we were downsizing from over 7000 square feet on two floors to a 2200 sq. ft. town home on 4 floors. Working with Dream House was a frustrating experience; there was no design boards with colors, fabrics or furniture placement ideas; but there were plenty of design billing hours. What they did well was to help manage subcontractors such as painters and cabinet-makers AND introduce me to quality subcontractors. What was sorely missing was ideas and design consultation despite my requests for the very same. When I inquired about my last bill regarding ideas for drapes and what actually I was paying for (I had already canceled due to their lack of service) I was told it was "proprietary information". Seriously? I could have uncovered the same ideas in a few minutes searching on Pinterest. Over the course of last several months, I received more design ideas and quality input from both Bassett Furniture and Ethan Allen than I did from Dream House! Importantly like, both Bassett and Ethan Allen offer their consultation services for free! If you need help with design consultation, our experience would indicate you can do much better elsewhere. Save yourself money, time and frustration, do not use Dream House Studios.

I hired her to redo the bathrooms in my townhome in Maryland and that led to the whole house. She not only did a hand drawn floor plan of each room to scale, she also planned all paint colors, window treatments, bedding, furniture selection, fabric, rugs, built-in cabinets for storage and wall art. You can tell that she loves what she does by the attention she pays to each detail of the project. Later I hired her to help me redo my house in Texas. I was a little worried with the house being in Texas but once again she did a great job capturing exactly what I wanted and paying attention to all details of the project. No matter where I live Fitzsimmons Design is who I will go to whenever I have a design project. Gina is a true professional and a joy to work with.
