We provide interior design services for residential and commercial spaces, from small projects to very large projects. The contractors that we work with are all licensed, and we provide free estimates. My design style is typically modern with very clean lines and leaning towards minimalist, but as a designer I believe that, to be successful, one has to be a little bit of a chameleon i.e. being able to adapt to your surroundings by including the client's own style (i.e. your style) to make sure that the final result is a living space that looks good BUT that also works for the client in terms of what they like and what they truly feel comfortable with, as it is the client who has to live in that designed space. So, I typically advise in terms of what I think will work best (and usually my advice has a modern, minimalist influence to it), and I will recommend to you what I think will look truly stunning, but I will not force you to adopt my recommendations or my overall style if that is not what you truly like or feel comfortable with. My initial consultation with a new client typically includes a detailed discussion to understand what you will be using the space for, what your style preferences are, what your favorite colors are, etc. and then I keep that in mind when I develop my proposed design. Our services include: * Private residences: Your home should be something you take pride in; it should be your sanctuary. We can turn your space from a house into a home that you will love to live in. * Staging your home to sell: It's an important step to selling your home that can increase your sales price and the number of offers you receive. * Budget design: We will work with any budget you have in mind. Just tell us your budget, and we will make it work. Limited budgets can also produce great designs. * Commercial: Commercial projects bring the challenge of meeting not only aesthetic expectations, but complex functional and operational requirements. read more

Charlie's Designs transformed the main floor of my house, which was built in the early 1900's, into a modern open floor plan with a great feel and flow. His choice of materials: tiles, countertops, backsplash, wallpaper, artwork, and of course the furniture are so tasteful that everyone feels like they have entered a warm and inviting showroom. He carefully listened to my likes/dislikes guiding me to explore creative ideas and his designs surpassed my expectations. Charlie has great energy and attitude with impeccable attention to detail. He has an excellent network of resources for professionals installing Cabinets, Air Conditioning, Tile work etc. While we always entertain family and friends on a regular basis, they too are enjoying how beautiful and comfortable the house is, they never want to leave. Even the bathrooms designs receive much praise. I highly recommend his services to my family, friends, and to you! read more

I had the BEST experience with Charlie. After interviewing several other designers and reviewing their work, I decided to go with Charlie to do my parents home. They had just done a huge renovation and we had no idea how decorate it. We had our black leather couches, white walls, and a few lamps in our living room. So Charlie came in and was extremely professional. He measured everything and really put a lot of thought in to his project. I love how he first gets to know your personal style and then works with you, and your budget. My parents house was transformed into the most cozy, comfortable, and gorgeous home...and all within our budget. Charlie is worth every penny and I highly recommend him! Please don't try to 'save money' on someone cheaper because you get what you pay for and I promise you will not be disappointed with him. read more

We had an incredible experience working with Charlie on our full apartment redesign. From start to finish, he was thoughtful, creative, and truly collaborative. His eye for design is exceptional--he brought ideas to the table that we never would have considered, yet everything still felt very "us" and aligned with how we live. Charlie managed to strike the perfect balance between style and functionality, making every space both beautiful and livable. He was also professional, communicative, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. We absolutely love our home now and are so grateful for his vision and expertise. We would work with him again in a heartbeat and can't recommend him highly enough! read more

Charlie provided exceptional service when designing multiple apartments for me over the years. Each time, he asked probing questions to better understand my vision for my space, he discussed a variety of options and showed samples to assure I was comfortable with patterns and textures, and he continually kept me updated on the progress of each project. Furthermore, Charlie and I continually reevaluated expenses to align costs with my budget. He is a genuine professional with a remarkable ability to transition a space into something beautiful, functional, and welcoming. I have gladly recommended his services to many people who are seeking an interior designer who is highly skilled and has a great personality. read more

I have worked with Charlie's Designs for the past 18 months and am exceptionally pleased with the results - so much better and easier to work with than other designers I have tried. A few examples: they listened to my ideas and preferences and suggested colors, styles and products within those parameters (rather than focus exclusively on what they like). They have excellent attention to detail and are great listeners. They focus on value for money and are very patient with difficult customers like me! I will certainly use them for my next project. Highly recommend! read more
