Working with Andrea Olsen and her team was one of the best decisions we made during our remodeling…read moreproject. We remodeled our entire main floor -- starting with the kitchen, where we removed a wall to open up the space. From there, we raised the floor in the living room and added a pocket door for privacy. In the family room, we also leveled the floor to match the rest of the main floor, updated our fireplace, and renovated the powder room. For a project this big, we needed reliable guidance, and Andrea was there every step of the way. She made great recommendations, patiently helped us make decisions, kept us well informed throughout the process, and answered all our questions promptly. When setbacks arose, she handled every problem with professionalism and grace, which gave us a lot of confidence and peace of mind. We are so happy with the results and would hire her again in a heartbeat.

My family and I recently moved into a new house, which required decorating and purchasing multiple…read morerooms' worth of furniture. 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

Although I have some design sense, I wanted an expert who could make additional suggestions. I retained Joy for a mini-consultation which I didn't even know you could do. She came to my house and spent over an hour giving me suggestions--some of which were new and some of which supported my design choices. She also gave me suggestions for my primary bath. After the consultation, she answered my questions via email. Highly recommend! Delightful experience. Great results.

Joy made a potentially stressful job easy!…read more We wanted to do a bathroom redo, but didn't want to have to worry about ordering things and scheduling work. Joy took care of all that and more. From the time we contacted Joy things went smoothly. Joy listened to what we had to say when we first called her then showed up with a plan that incorporated our ideas with her expertise. Joy used mood boards to help us visualize the plan and updated them frequently with our preferences. Joy took care of all scheduling of contactors and ordering the supplies. She was also easy to contact and really kept us updated during the entire project. I think her fees were a great value and well worth it. She had some really great ideas we would never have thought of. The final product was a wonderful combination of what we were looking for and what really worked. Just top notch work. We are so happy with the final result. I can't even remember what the old bathroom looked like now. We will use Joy for our next project for sure and highly recommend her.

Linda is AWESOME. We received a referral to Linda from our neighbor who had just engaged her to…read moreselect colors for their house. We hired Linda in similar fashion. Let me describe the services provided and why it was awesome. We were in the midst of redecorating and had several rooms that we were planning to repaint. Linda had a fixed price for a set number of rooms that we thought was very reasonable to begin with. We were really expecting her to stop by, take a look at our house, understand our needs and provide recommendations. But, oh...she did so much more. Linda spent 7 hours with us! For each space that we consulted her on, she asked us to describe usage, provided recommendations, then held up color swatches on the walls so we could see what the color would look like in bright light and shadows and further gave us decor tips. We did not just pick colors, we felt confident in our choices. As I think back to our initial experience when we moved in, we liked a lot of color and picked some bold colors throughout pretty randomly. Unfortunately, less than 4 years later we are re-painting so many areas because the color seems overbearing or did not really work. If we had used Linda's services right at the start, we wouldn't be repainting so soon so we would have saved money! In the end, we have picked shades of a similar color but as Linda explained, there is a rhythm to this, as you move from active areas to areas where light fades and gets bright, you see a consistency and can also change moods somewhat. Again, YMMV, but all-in-all, I don't think anyone will be dissatisfied with Linda...she goes out of her way to please...she need not have spent 7 hours with us and we think that the decor tips she provided are strong. Her work ethic and enthusiasm was excellent...we almost could not keep up with her even after 7 hours. 10/10 for her service and enthusiasm.
