The short version: We needed someone to help us select…read morecolors and tile for a whole-house remodel, and Nicole did a great job! The long version: We were remodeling our entire house at once, and needed help in limiting our choices for wall/ceiling colors, tile and flooring. Nicole was great to work with! After telling her about our vision for the house, showing her our existing furniture and accessories, and telling her the colors we liked, Nicole helped us come up with a coherent color scheme that makes our house the showplace we wanted. For us, the hardest part of the remodel was selecting the tile for 7 different places in the house. We told Nicole where we wanted to splurge, and where we wanted to save money. She was able to give us several options for every selection, and we love the results. Check out the photos I've posted for some examples. In the end, Nicole was able to flex to our pseudo-do-it-yourself style and give us everything we wanted. Also, when marble for our bathroom arrived damaged from a warehouse on the east coast, Nicole was right there making sure that it was resolved immediately so that our project wasn't delayed. We recommend Nicole, and wouldn't hesitate to work with her again. Note: We also worked with Kevin Laiks - The Urban Builder (http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-urban-builder-san-francisco) and KitchenSync (http://www.yelp.com/biz/kitchensync-san-francisco).

We absolutely love how everything turned out and are still amazed of how beautiful our home looks. There were many items she picked that I may not have picked myself but I am glad I trusted her judgment because once the items arrived and we saw it in our space, they were perfect! One heads up - given how busy she is with several projects, I do recommend setting timeline expectations at the beginning as our project took longer than expected. Overall, I highly recommend Brittany. We would be happy to work with her again.

I hired Brittany to design my master bedroom in my home that I recently purchased. She just…read morefinished the final touches and I couldn't be more happy. During the initial consultation, Brittany listened to my vision, colors, and style preferences. In no time, she had the room design layout emailed to me. It was absolutely perfect! I was so excited! She made my dream bedroom come to life. The process from there was getting the materials and the install which Brittany orchestrated perfectly. She really made it easy. I give my highest recommendation to Brittany and will be hiring her for the interior design for my entire home.

Tony and Dawn are phenomenal. We have a 1920s era bungalow that needed a kitchen overhaul. Our…read moregoal was to maintain elements of the traditional bungalow style while bringing in modern elements, oh and of course within a very tight budget Tony crafted a fantastic design, brought many many samples for us to select from and helped us come to consensus on design decisions (he's phenomenal at carefully navigating differing opinions!) We also appreciated the contractors he brought in to build custom cabinetry and countertops. These guys (particularly Rocky, the cabinet maker) are true craftsmen. Visitors who have come by since the reno can't tell the difference between the original cabinets and the new. We love love love working with Tony and Dawn and hope to do so again in a heartbeat. (living / dining room guys?) You can't go wrong with Mood and Space, they truly listen and get at the core of your design style.

I was referred to the MAS Design team by Grant K. Gibson for a kitchen re-design in my home. My…read morehome has been designed by top tier designers, and Grant assured me that MAS is a talented, highly professional team with an excellent eye and reputation. Plus, their office has recently moved to Tiburon (next to Sausalito in Marin County) so (just across the Golden Gate bridge), super close to SF, a huge convenience. I met with principal designers Carol Perry and Dawn Carlson, and felt that I was in good hands. They were knowledgeable, friendly and positive. As we worked together I appreciated their systematic process, and their customer care. I had lots of great ideas and, combined with their expert skills, together we arrived at a design that I am thrilled with. The MAS team works in a variety of styles according to their clients' taste, so I was happy that they could adapt to my vision for the space. Their process is professional and direct. Their systems for communication, drawing, purchasing, etc made it so that not only did I know what was happening (and what I was being billed for) all along the way, but also they shielded me from errors that may have otherwise without these protections. They also jumped into action when I needed things quickly! They have integrity and care about their clients' timelines and will produce drawings and such in response to sudden deadlines that can occur when working with a contractor, builders, etc. The MAS team has great taste, an organized and yet accessible process, and are easy to work with. Plus, it was fun working with them! In the end, I am confident in their ability to provide a chic, comfortable, and unforgettable space for my family. I highly recommend Team MAS! Lauren

Our home is 25 years old and in need of upgrades. Ms O'Brien spent several hours helping us choose…read morebeautiful and easy care materials. She chose several bathroom vanities and we liked her choices, and ordered one of them. It was reasonable and absolutely stunning. She explained the different options for replacing our carpeting. We agreed on waterproof, tongue in groove vinyl that looks very much like wood. The material has arrived (it's gorgeous) and we are awaiting the installer. Thank you, Naked Space Works, for a very special upgrade. We're extremely pleased and we highly recommend you. We should also add that the reason we chose Naked Space Works is availability and reasonable pricing.

I recently moved back to the US and enlisted Bijou's help in re-furnishing my house. I've hired…read moreBijou to design 4 rooms for our condo, and the rooms are coming together well. First of all, I was impressed by Bijou's attitude and her willingness to go above-and-beyond. Some of the lamps that we'd picked would not ship to CA, so she had them shipped to her family's address in another state and she personally drove them back to CA on her way back from visiting family (18+ hour drive). When I was out of country, Bijou went above and beyond to meet with my building's HOA to get the necessary permits to hire contractors to paint the walls and redo the carpets. Needless to say, Bijou is incredibly easy to work with. Secondly, Bijou has a great taste. She has outstanding inherent talent in distinguishing many different shade of colors, and an excellent memory for color. Off the top of her head, Bijou was able to identify that the color of the veins in the marble dining room slate would match perfectly with the color of the dining room table--and when I got home, I confirmed that she was right! (See the picture.) Finally, Bijou is good in matching different styles of furniture and color to create an appropriate aesthetic based on what a person has indicated that they like. From the very beginning, I said that I preferred a zen-inspired simple sophistication for my master bedroom. I really admired the way Bijou made my bedroom's ambiance come together by matching the lamp, and the bedframe. I am very satisfied with the combination of wood colors, the effect of the lamp lighting, and especially the way the lamp casts elegant shadows across my bedroom. (See the picture). (By the way, this is the lamp she personally moved across states for me.) Bijou is also able to adapt her styling to each person's preference--she is also working on my daughter's bedroom. My daughter prefers a sleeker and more urban aesthetic, and my daughter so far is happy with the way her room is coming along. I've also attached a picture of one of the lamps in my daughter's room, which further shows Bijou's great taste in picking furniture. I will update the review with final pictures and commentary when the 4 rooms are complete. In the meantime, I would definitely recommend Bijou to anyone who is looking for a new up-and-coming designer.

Choosing Complete Wonder was one of the best decisions we've ever made for our home and sanity…read more Lisa and her small team don't just redesign spaces, they transform them. What was once a chaotic, disjointed space is now a beautifully designed, fluid, and functional environment that actually supports the way we live. She implemented smart, easily sustainable systems of order that help us stay organized without even thinking about it. Her sharp eye for design is matched by her understanding  of how people interact and function in a space. She took the time to understand our routines, pain points, and goals, and then completely revitalized our home with intention and creativity. It's not just much more aesthetically pleasing, it's very livable. She's a designer, and a organizer systems-thinker all in one. Truly life changing!

An embarrassing amount of time had passed since I moved in to my new spot and somehow I just…read morecouldn't get out of the boxes. Stacked everywhere. Shame and self-loathing plagued me. The shit was a cry for help. A friend of mine recommended a session with Lisa, whom I resisted because, well, it's tough calling in the cavalry to help clean your own house. It's hard to imagine that they wouldn't judge you like, well, I would if I went to somebody's house that was living in squalor like me. But Lisa isn't interested in judgements. She's interested in solving problems. In finding solutions from chaos. She's thrilled by a challenge. They bigger they are they harder they fall, that's Lisa's style. Line 'em up, knock 'em down. So don't feel bad, she's on your side, promise. In three hours I lived in a house again, had a color scheme planned, furniture arranged and could breathe again. Clutter killer, Lisa Rybak. A force of good and order in the universe.

We have had three great experiences with Nadja over the last seven years…read more Our last project was a small unit remodel. She had loads of ideas and solid solutions to unusual issues. Hip yet both eco- and energetically conscious--especially given a home renovation can bring up emotions, Nadja is easy to work with-- including taking me shopping for great tile and an amazing countertop I would never have seen on my own, but is stunning and creates a modern, stylish and yet inviting dining, work space. We were able to quickly accomplish a total renovation that is quite impressive yet kept to our budget and exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Nadja for support in discovering your truest living style and making it happen with grace and ease.

I reached out to Dani because my home felt a bit cold and unfinished, and I wasn't sure how to make…read moreit feel more welcoming. I had a general sense that something was missing, but I couldn't quite visualize what needed to change. After just one meeting with Dani, everything started to click. She showed me how even subtle, intentional updates could completely shift the mood of the space, bringing in warmth and cohesion. Dani has a true gift for walking into a home and immediately seeing what's possible. I loved brainstorming ideas with her--she's incredibly visual, creative, and collaborative. As someone who's very visual myself, I found it so helpful to talk through the possibilities. Dani made it easy to imagine how beautiful the space could become. What truly sets Dani apart is the energy and passion she brings to her work. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does. She has an incredible eye and a deep understanding of how to make the biggest impact--both aesthetically and strategically. She also helped me understand the potential costs of different elements, which gave me a much clearer picture of how to plan and prioritize. It was reassuring to feel guided not just creatively, but also in making smart, informed decisions about where to invest.

Before working with Dani, I felt overwhelmed by the amount of decisions involved in building a new…read morehome. I wanted a space that felt personal and timeless, but I struggled to envision how it would all come together. From cabinetry and finishes to architectural details, I worried that without the right guidance, the result might feel generic or disconnected. Working with Dani made all the difference. She took the time to understand our lifestyle and how we wanted to use our space, guiding us through critical early choices like stair balusters, cabinetry profiles, and architectural finishes that set the tone for the entire home. She gave us the confidence to move beyond the obvious, encouraging a curated, collected look that feels uniquely ours. Her expertise in scale and proportion ensured the furnishings in our larger rooms felt balanced and cohesive--without her guidance, we would have made choices that felt off. Now, our home feels truly reflective of who we are--not like it was pulled from a catalog. Dani transformed what felt like an overwhelming project into an inspiring, enjoyable journey. She helped us avoid costly mistakes and create a home that feels curated, intentional, and beautifully personal. Friends and family constantly compliment our space, and it genuinely feels like a home we can be proud of. She made sense of the puzzle pieces, and I'm so grateful for her guidance. I couldn't be happier with the results and would recommend her to anyone looking to create a unique, genuinely personal space.
