My husband and I were excited to work with Debbie, initially. The $500 seemed steep for just a 2…read morehour consult, but we had just bought our first townhouse and were at a loss as to were to start in the design process. Positives: During our 2 hour visit Debbie there were a couple of helpful suggestions she shared with us (lighting, window treatments). After the visit Debbie also did return some of our emails that had follow-up questions. Overall, however, there were 4 things that just didn't cut it for us. 1. Debbie PUSHED her slobproof brand of furniture on us strongly. We were not interested in the styles that she was showing us in her catalog, and mentioned to her a couple of other brands that may work in the space (i.e. crate and barrel, west elm)...but she was dead set on trying to sell her OWN stuff. 2. We spent a LONG time talking about and looking for RUGS on line. She said that this is the first thing you need to tie the room together. Well many months later, we have fabulous living room (thank you Lydia from Arhaus in VA!) with a very subtle simple cream rug. 3. Her communication style was more of a monologue than a dialogue. I know 2 hours isn't a long time, but we felt that our style, needs, and habits weren't really being taken into consideration. #4: Angel W.'s previous comment reminded me of this: Lastly, Debbie did offer to come back at the Groupon price that was coming out soon thereafter. However a few weeks later she reneged on this promise stating in an email that she was only planning on returning because she was under the impression that we would be selecting fabrics for "a Slobproof! Sectional, chairs and some of the other items we discussed." Tying the upcoming visit to to our buying slobpoof furniture was erroneous on its face. We did not have another visit, nor did we purchase any of her furniture. We hope these insights can help improve the customer experience for the next guy.

I purchased a Groupon for some design services. On the day the Groupon went on sale, I contacted…read morethe owner to set up an appointment. She mentioned that she was overwhelmed by the Groupon sales and could not take appointments at that time. She said she would call everyone back individually to set appointment times. I never received a call. I always schedule appointments right away and put the date on my calendar. My life is busy and that system works for me. Because the owner never callled me, I forgot about the service. Time passed and the Groupon expired. I have been known to let Groupons expire and am totally fine with it so long as I choose to let it expire. I did not choose to let this one expire. I paid $100 for the service so I was not simply going to let it go, especially since the staff never reached out to me as promised. At this later date, I placed a call to Designing Solutions to get this cleared up. I was promised a phone call that once again never came. The two star rating is solely for poor customer service and lack of follow through. I have worked with many design consultants in the past, all of whom I would give 5 stars. My sister has actually used Designing Solutions and mentioned that their design skills are mediocre so perhaps I lucked out. Groupon (who provides amazing customer service btw), refunded me the money, so this review has nothing to do with me being bitter about the money. I just think it's important for potential clients to realize that they may have to put some effort into getting the attention of the Designing Solutions staff.

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!

The first one was so successful, that when we had an opportunity to do another, she was our first call. And still the best remodeling decision we've ever made. We were able to "see" the vision and confidently show every detail to the numerous contractors that each needed something different. We highly recommend (10 out of 5 Stars) her as a collaborator in your next remodel or new build. Her attention to detail and experience always ends up saving us headache and ultimately money, while we get the vision we always wanted. Thank you Rebecca for all of your wonderful creativity and kindness during the process. Looking forward to the next time we can work together!!

Bring in Rebecca Quandt Ineriors. My hubby and I hired Rebecca for some consultation on our one bedroom apartment. We moved in over a year and half ago and still haven't seemed to put the place together. Rebecca came over to take measurements and created some amazing 3D drawings of our apartment. And I mean the ENTIRE apartment. Details included pictures we had on the wall and decor on our tables. It really helped us understand what our place would look like before vs. after. She suggested 2 options to layout our apartment and gave us specific measurements for us in regards to furniture we want to replace as well as the new area rugs, drapes and lamp shades. Rebecca offered to help us pick out furniture and when we declined to save $$, she still offered up some websites to check out as she could still help get us a discount. Rebecca was even willing to stay in touch with me as we picked out a couch and coffee table at no extra charge. Little questions like "will this fit because your dimensions didn't allow it?" she answered promptly. When we even picked out the couch we wanted from The Sofa Co, I sent her a picture and asked her if the price we were given was average to similar couches. It turns out she was able to find us the exact couch we wanted for a fraction of the price!!!! I mean, that alone paid for her services plus SAVED US OVER A GRAND!!!!!!! I'm still waiting on our coffee table and area rugs to get delivered next week but I cannot wait to take some after pictures to post!!! I would highly recommend Rebecca's services for the greater LA area for anyone needing interior design assistance and will definitely be using her in the future when we move into a larger home!

I was looking for a specific service (structural inspection) & started a project request via Yelp…read moreto receive quotes. Bitarchitects provided a prompt response, prompt call phone consultation & next steps. Within 1 week of contact I was able to discuss my concerns, the engineer completed a thorough walk through of my home & gave me ample amount of time view discuss my concerns. More importantly they didn't drag out the walkthrough for hours!! I appreciate the honest responses to help distinguish between normal settlement & items that are concerning. I'm waiting on the written report (inspection was completed one business day before writing this review) to proceed with the fixes. I strongly urge spending time & money on an inspection from a structural engineer before spending $$$$ for repairs that aren't needed. Prior to contacting I had 2 vendors try to sell me solutions for problems I didn't have. The price I paid for the inspection literally saved me $$,$$$. My selection of Bitarchitects was because they heard my initial concern, were quick to provide service, & provided communication from initial inquiry to the day of service.

Terry Bitar and her team were great to work with every step of the project. They handled things large and small to successfully complete the project. It was easy to communicate with the team, both on big picture issues and on smaller logistical issues. Bitarchitects listened to us and provided us with options and expertise to navigate the task of structural reinforcements for our 100-year old DC home. I also appreciated that, in addition to talking through things, they neatly put things in writing so there was a clear documentation of the project. -- We had an urgent concern with a structural issue in our old house so we reached out to Bitarchitects based on their good reviews here. We received a prompt response and soon had an engineer evaluating our house. The engineer was thorough, helpful, and went above and beyond. He provided a lot of valuable insight both on site and then in a comprehensive written report. I also appreciate that Bitarchitects is able to help me find vendors to complete the work recommended in the engineering report. I have had a great experience from the start and would recommend Bitarchitects to other homeowners.
