I cannot say enough good things about Modiano Design! Aggie completely transformed what was once a dark, dreary, unfinished storage area into the most beautiful, bright, and open office space I could have imagined. From our very first meeting, Aggie looked at the space and immediately had a clear vision for its potential. What impressed me most was the sheer scope of what she took on: removing a wall, merging three rooms into one cohesive space, sourcing and coordinating all vendors -- a plumber for the water heater, a painter, concrete specialist, and electrician -- and personally quality-checking every aspect of their work. This wasn't just interior design; it was a full project management feat. Aggie also handled all the details I never would have thought of -- selecting the carpet and wall paneling, securing a discount on the paneling that she passed directly to us, designing a thoughtful lighting plan, and coming up with the brilliant idea of adding glass to the door to flood the space with natural light. The result is nothing short of stunning. And she did all of this in approximately ONE MONTH to accommodate our unexpected office relocation. The speed, quality, and professionalism were exceptional. If you're looking for a designer who can handle complex, large-scale projects with vision and efficiency, look no further. read more

I was fortunate enough to meet Aggie and have her remodeled our kitchen and house and we LOVE the results and working with Aggie. I usually have a very strong opinion on things and I appreciate so much Aggie insistance on areas that she knew would be better and would make more sense for daily use of the space. Thanks to Aggie, the functionality and the flow of the kitchen is much better now- as a fun fact, she literally had to force me to : -Add the extra sink and the range hood over the cooktop ( instead of the MW). Thank you so much Aggie!!

I first worked with Aggie Kiss and Modiano Design, remodeling and redecorating my Hollywood Hills midcentury modern home for sale. She was not only knowledgable and professional, but easy to work with. I gave her a 5 star rating. The house sold quickly, for over asking price. So when it came time to build my one-bedroom ADU addition, I turned to Aggie again. And once again she delivered, guiding the project from the ground up to the completed construction. What makes it even more impressive is that I was out of town, so she was completely in charge essentially acting as the general contractor. Her excellent communication skills kept me constantly updated and engaged in the decision process. Her design is amazing, starting with the floor plan that maximizes every inch of space while maintaining a sense of spaciousness. The soft color palette and warm wood tones she chose create an ambience that's both stylish and cozy. Her choice of appliances and fixtures contribute to the seamless pairing of modern convenience with effortless style. One notable design feature is the ingenious use of space-saving pocket doors for the bedroom and bathroom that ensures the layout remains fluid and flexible. The compact kitchen is also impressive, packed with smart, practical features that allow it to function as well as any standard-sized kitchen. Aggie even managed to incorporate a dishwasher, a welcome convenience. Also welcome is the charming little patio for chillin' and grillin' - perfect for anyone with a dog. If you're looking for a designer who combines creativity and cost-effective practicality delivered with a personal touch, Aggie Kiss and Modiano Design is the perfect choice. read more

I can not say enough good things about Modiano Designs and the owner, Aggie. I utilized them for my living room, home office, and backyard. Aggie came on onboard, listened to my wants, asked a lot of questions, and got to work. Each room was transformed from its once bland state to a beautiful space that was magazine ready. Most importantly, she did it all within my budget. We worked closely in selecting colors, and accessories for each room. She never made me feel like my desires were unwanted yet she guided me when pieces that I wanted didn't work spatially. I wanted a backyard oasis as my family spends a lot of time entertaining by the pool. Modiano Design turned my backyard into a resort-like area that would rival most hotels. She included all the special touches that made my house a beautiful home. Aggie is the best in the business. She is friendly, and professional and has the vision to transform any space. I would use her to decorate any room in the house or outdoor space. I can't wait to collaborate on our next project. read more

I have used Modiano Design to partially stage a high end house in Woodland Hills. Aggie had great ideas for the space, and the end result was absolutely stunning! She is professional, talented and experienced. She is also very sweet, just like all of her team! Anyone who went through the process of selling a house knows how stressful it can be, especially if timing is tight. In the middle of it all working with Aggie was a pleasure: she was mindful of our wishes and scheduling, she communicated all updates and changes clearly and never made us feel uncomfortable.

We hired Aggie to help us furnish our home after we bought a new house and had no idea where to start. After some research, we found Modiano Design and were impressed by their sample projects which really matched our style and just looked great (it was also really highly rated). We reached out and got a free consultation from Aggie Kiss, the principle designer, and were really impressed with her vision for how to turn our house into something we'd love. There were a couple of times where we had trouble envisioning the final product or a given furniture item, but we trusted her recommendations and couldn't be happier with how well everything worked together in the final designs and love our modern/mid-century modern decor. In addition to the great design, Modiano Design also did all of the layouts and installations - something that I never imagined would matter so much for the overall décor. Aside from the simple items, Aggie's team built a fabulous 3-dimensional custom wood feature wall for our living room, installed a new light fixture, and even did other small jobs like patching and painting. Not only did they do a great job, but they were incredibly fast and quite reasonably priced. We couldn't recommend them more highly if you are looking for an awesome interior designer! read more

We used Modiano Design to stage a contemporary craftsman we rebuilt in Sierra Madre and were very very pleased with the results. Aggie and her team did an amazing job. She was easy to work with, professional and really put her heart in the project as if it was her own house. Her design aesthetic and taste is impeccable. Aggie was also very conscious of what elements to highlight in the house to appeal to buyers I'm a very picky person in terms of design and I didn't even move a book or accessory from their original staging location. Thanks Aggie for a great job! read more

CREATIVE ********************* STYLISH ********************* CHIC Modiano Design did a wonderful job staging my house in Pasadena, CA. I communicated the aesthetic I was trying to achieve and Aggie delivered on time and under budget! She is creative and has a great eye for what is stylish (without being kitschy). Aggie and her crew are great to work with and I appreciated the fact that I gave her a hard deadline and she stuck by her word. The quality of the furniture and accessories she used to stage my 3 bedroom/ 3 bathroom house was what I appreciated the most. I would highly recommend Modiano Design to anyone looking for interior design consultation or staging services. read more

I knew I was going to use a stager, and called other real estate agents for recommendations. Aggie and Modiano Design were mentioned several times. I met Aggie a few years ago and was impressed - but I'd lost her card. I met with 2 other stagers. When Aggie came to see the house I knew she was different. I was impressed with her energy and positive attitude. The house was older, and she generously shared many ideas of what could be done to make the house show really well. She consistently said that she could create the look I wanted, and gave lots of examples. She followed up, came by a few times to check that what I was having done was going to work, and made it all feel workable. I set a date for staging - then had to change the date 3 times! She was kind and understanding. And when it was ready, she and her crew were there and really on top of things. The furniture and furnishings are great, and her attention to detail is incredible. She even helped me get custom mirrors made for the master bath, so it would be "just right". My neighbors said that it doesn't look at all the same- and they are right. She did a fabulous job. The house looks amazing, and I'm expecting a solid sale. read more

We put our home up for sale and Aggie did a fantastic job staging it. The entire process was very efficient and easy. She came in for a free consultation and we went through the house together.

Modiano Design was the best part of selling our house! Amazing results, fast turnaround, easy to work with and reasonably priced! We found a house we wanted to buy and so we needed to list our home as soon as possible. I reached out to Aggie at Modiano Design and heard back from her immediately. After sending her pictures of my house, she sent me a detailed email back, telling me that she could work with a lot of my living room furniture (I thought I would need the room completely staged), what I needed to get rid of, and what I could do on my own to save costs. She then came out to my house within days of me contacting her and worked within my budget to do a partial staging, completely transforming my house within a week or so of me first calling her. She was also incredibly flexible and came back out to add some additional furniture within 24 hours when my agent suggested that we stage a room we had not previously staged. Our pictures were fantastic and we received multiple offers on the house within days of listing it. I highly recommend Aggie at Modiano Designs for anyone looking to sell or decorate a house. read more

Aggie and her team were AMAZING! We were putting our house up for sale and our realtor recommended a local staging consultant to help the sale. We had a consultation, but were NOT pleased with her pricing - so we shopped around and found Modiano Design. Aggie came right over to look at the house, and within a day or so, had a whole punch list of what she wanted to do, what we needed to do, and a complete 'cafeteria style' price list for each room with minimum to maximum staging items for us to choose from. We were given options to use some of our own furniture, or none - and the staging for each area in our home was priced accordingly. FURTHER, she sent pictures of the furniture she planned to use and a whole website of decorator items she recommended, that we could purchase to keep or she would supply in kind for the staging. We went through her entire proposal and made our choices, and then added up the figures . . . and the total cost was $3000 UNDER what the other stager had quoted. (We had to pay the other stager $300 just for coming to our house - and all we got was lighting and bathroom fixture recommendations, paint colors to use, and a price that pretty much said 'get rid of all your junk - I'll use all my stuff' - but we never saw any pictures or arrangements to choose from.) Needless to say, we were pleased and excited to work with Aggie & her team to begin the staging process. A few days before our staging was to begin, the city put out notices that our street was being torn up for repairs and would be closed to traffic and parking. What a NIGHTMARE! We called Aggie and she came by to talk to the city workers & went to Plan B , where she rented several small vans to deliver the furniture & staging items, rather than using her 'regular' all-in-one moving van. And so the staging process began. Over several days, furniture items were brought in, arranged in each room, and then additional staging items such as pillows, pictures, lighting, and chachkas to accent each room. The results were amazing!!! We were SO pleased that everyone (including us) that saw it wondered why we were moving! She had turned our 'regular' ranch style house into a cozy, designer model home! Even our realtor was impressed! The realtor's photographer came and took amazing pictures for the brochure, as well as a 3-D virtual tour of the our house - and we had an offer the first day it was on the market! Within 3 days, we had 5 offers, several OVER asking price. We credit much of this to Aggie's amazing staging - she made our home so appealing and welcoming that the buyers just had to have it! I would DEFINITELY recommend Aggie and Modiano Design to anyone selling their home and considering staging - or as a design consultant to just make a home you already live in - to look AMAZING. read more

Aggie Kiss, principal designer of Modiano Design, did three houses for me in the Highland Park, Glassell Park and Mt. Washington area. When I purchased these houses they were all in disrepair "Total Fixers". Aggie was creative and cost conscious. She worked endless hours to redesign and recreate the floor plans with an open concept. Her designs are always with the homeowner's point of view and more importantly, all selected features throughout come with pride of ownership. Aggie was in charge of the entire project from the new floor plan, kitchen and bathroom design, surface materials and fixtures, window and door, exterior color selection as well as exterior landscaping. After the houses were completely remodeled, Aggie and her team fully staged the properties. The end results were cohesive, impressive and exceptionally detail oriented. We received multiple offers within days well over asking price. Aggie certainly deserves our gratitude for the success of our projects as well as creating a wonderful home for the homeowners. read more

My husband I are part-time flippers for residential homes and have worked with various different staging companies for years. Still not having been fully satisfied with our past stagers, I was on the search for a new one. Very fortunately, I was lucky enough to find Aggie Kiss of Modiano Design. I made contact with her over the phone and was instantly impressed and pleased with how our conversation was so easy and effortless. She was so personable yet also very professional. Obviously, it was a delight meeting her in person. Meeting her at our property, giving her a tour of the home, she was able to provide great thoughts and ideas to enhance the style of our place. She was very detailed and thorough in expressing and explaining her design concept. I was also equally impressed with how she was so willing and ready to listen to my ideas and incorporate them as well into the scope of the project at hand. From beginning to during and end, she was accommodating and thoughtful to every word and idea I had to offer. But all in all I didn't have to utter much because I had complete trust and faith in her capabilities! Ultimately, the end result of the property looked FABULOUS! Made our home come to life with vibrant colors, great furniture so suitable to the home and accessories to tie everything together! Could not have been happier... I would most definitely recommend her to anyone and everyone who needs a lending hand of a designer and stager who has design sense of great style and impeccable taste. read more

When I had issues with picking up furniture or being at home to accept packages, Aggie and her team stepped up and made sure we got everything done on time. This is not just a design studio, Aggie provides the full service that takes you through the project from start to finish -- whatever it takes.

It is such a pleasure to work with someone who goes above and beyond no matter what time of the day, this is Aggie. Aside from having exceptional taste, she rolls up her sleeves and really cares about the project from beginning to end. Aggie went out of her way to find unique pieces to match my request of a modern but elegant design. Aside from that request, I let her create her own vision. When I saw the finished home, I was very pleased. The property did not look like a staged home, it looked rather like an expensively decorated home; something an interior designer would do for herself. She used unique pieces, like faux furs, collectable items and even advised me one morning that she was in Palm Springs getting some items. She even went as far as bringing lemons on the morning of my photography shoot and chocolate chip cookies for my open house, what a doll :-) LeHoa Miller, Teles Properties. read more
