I met Lauren last year when I was looking for someone to make curtains for our master bedroom. I…read moredidn't know where to start and she patiently supplied me with different material swatches until a decision could be made on what I and my partner liked. Once we made up our minds Lauren got to work to produce the most beautiful drapes. Not only did she do an expert job, she picked out curtain rods that matched the drapes theme and the colouring of the room. Subsequently she went on to make us expertly made replacement upholstered chair seats. Not to go on and on, but she is also a brilliant sewing instructor and as a result I am now more adept at using my sewing machine.

Paola was recommended to us by our realtor. At first we were skeptical that we needed a stager (it…read moreseemed frivolous) but we were wrong. Paola met with us for about 2 hours at our house, two months before we were going to sell. She gave us a run down of what she thought should be done. This included changing a carpet, painting a small room a neutral color, chopping down a small bush, getting rid of various pieces of furniture, moving some art work. We decided to go with it as we liked Paola's style. She is very direct and businesslike and we felt that she knew what she was doing. We did what she said and then about 5 days before the first open house she came back and she dressed each room with vases, throws, paintings, decorations. She moved furniture from one room to another, making me wonder why I hadn't thought of doing that while we lived there! In the end, our 36 year old house looked like a new house. We were delighted. I am pleased to say that our house looked so good that it sold the day after the open house for the asking price. It was a nice house anyway, but Paola made it really shine.

Paola was recommended by our realtor to stage our home in Acton which we sold in June 2018. She was…read moreextremely thorough going from room to room and our realtor was kind enough to type up all the notes so we could remember it all! We appreciated that Paola tried to use as much of our own furnishings and decor as possible - moving items from one room to another or simply "decluttering" them. She ended up providing some small decor, pillows, and wall hangings and along with all the changes she suggested, our house showed really well. Our house went under agreement the first Open House weekend. Paola was easy to communicate with even answering last minute decor questions. She was mindful of all the costs of selling the house and accepted her payment when we finally closed. We really appreciated her help!

She's extremely approachable, flexible, and practical. Joanne helped design and completely manage a 2400sqf apartment renovation while I was living overseas. Everything was communicated clearly and the project was finished on schedule. I look forward to more projects with Joanne!

It was time for a home re-fresh and Joanne was terrific. Among other things, Joanne worked with our…read morecreative and super opinionated 13-year-old to select a new bedroom paint color. She handled our nearly bi-annual slipcovering (two cats!), and re-did the hardwood floors (I use a wheelchair, had done a number on them, and never really liked the original finish). What's next may not matter to you, but it did to me. I gave her my keys, we went to our little Cape Cod getaway, she emptied our joint, got the work done, got the joint cleaned, everything back in place -- and we returned. You know what that is for me? Trust. Trust is a thing, just like excellent taste.

I hired Gray Oak Studio to design my living and dining area. Leah, Sonia and Michelle understood…read moreexactly what I wanted (neutral with pops of color, no clutter, more storage) and have created a beautiful space, despite quirks in my apartment (off-center rooms , radiant heat in the ceiling). They have made my apartment look so warm and inviting - it looks like it could be in a catalogue. Their selection of furniture and accessories was spot on - perfectly sized for my home. I second one of the other reviewers - they picked items that I would never have sought out on my own and their use of color and texture makes the whole space pop. My apartment finally feels like a home and it's been wonderful to walk into this lovely space every day! They were very communicative and highly responsive during the entire design process, gently persuaded me to trust them during my periods of nervousness, and stayed within the planned budget and completed the work in a timely manner. They were wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend this team!

I would love to work with them again!

I highly regret my decision to work with Decoraid and would urge friends or strangers against…read moreworking with them, and I feel personally taken advantage of. The final outcome took over 9 months and left 40% of the proposal unfilled with no payment back to me for missing services. My main feedback is that the process the firm runs is *incredibly* inefficient and leaves almost no opportunity for collaboration. The other is that the designers are basically just internet shoppers, with no connection to the things they're actually buying. With two in person meetings followed by a single proposal, there's basically no chance to actually get a good outcome. No one knows exactly what they want in the first meeting, and if they did they wouldn't need Decoraid. It takes working through options and figuring out what works well together. Neither designer I worked with (I was given a new designer after 4+ months of nothing happening with the first) used a pinterest board (something that seems super weird for an interior designer) that we could have collaborated through. Instead, they sent over single rug options without any context on other pieces that would fit with it. The reason I would pay someone $2,000 to help design a studio apartment would be for their creative spirit and perspective, and neither were proactive at all - basically just taking the things I wanted and googling them to find options. If you see a couch without pillows or a blanket, shouldn't she be calling out that I need that? Shouldn't she be architecting what to do with a blank 2 floor wall that's 20 feet wide? This seems to be a foundational expectation hearing about friends' experiences with other designers. The other missing aspect is that the designers used entirely cookie cutter options - only limited to West Elm, Crate and Barrel, and All Modern. Interior Designers are supposed to know more than you and do things you can't do in your own free time. They're supposed to have a good eye and be tuned in to off the beaten track options, visiting markets and fairs and hunting for good options. To be honest, they weren't even been good at the cookie cutter options - suggesting terribly uncomfortable itchy thin rugs, and couldn't find a Brass Mirror that was available to order which I found for myself within 10 minutes of looking. Of the first three items to arrive, I returned two of them because they didn't fit. With the amount of effort this took on my side and the time it's taken and the bad results it's yielded, along with no recourse for missing items from the initial proposal, I feel taken advantage of.

I've…read morealways wanted a well decorated home but I don't have the talent needed (so I wasted a lot of money throughout my life buying furniture that ultimately didn't go well with other items I already had) nor the money to pay tens of thousands for traditional interior designers to come decorate my home. Decor Aid allowed me to get the help I wanted for a very affordable price. My living room pieces are now arriving and I love the result. Because I live out in the suburbs in Boston, they did not have a person that could come to my home. However, they still helped me my putting me in contact with their NYC office (Meredith Cook was my designer, she's amazing) and we did all the work through skype/phone/email. It was very convenient. Meredith was very professional, responsive and patient (with the couple of times I changed my mind) and really tried to work with me in understanding my style before proposing a plan. I plan on using them again for the other rooms in my house.
