I've known Buddy since his Cranberry Hole Road days (early '90s, I stumbled in there by accident,…read moreand...). He has guided me through two apartment restylings (not renovations) 30 years apart in two NYC boroughs. As others have said, he is a different kind of designer--and so full of ideas that at first it's overwheming, and you might wish you had 10 other homes to fill with his concepts. He sees possibilities that aren't immediately evident, and is a genius at furntiure and picture placement. I had a genuine midcentury table (not a West Elm copy) that I'd had for decades and it was just sitting forlornly in a corner in the new place because I didn't know what to do with it (It didn't seem to fit anywhere). I was also grousing about needing a coffee table and in less than a second Buddy picks up the table with one hand and plops it down in front of my couch (purchased with his guidance), saying, "Here's your coffee table." The table, although not ostensibly a coffee table, works perfectly there, even though I never saw that possibility and was getting ready to dump it on one of those marketplaces. It's a small example, but I think it capsulizes Buddy's approach. He was also spot on when it came to selecting lighting fixtures, and saved me from choosing rugs that would have made my place look like a Miami hotel lobby (I think that's what he said--I know his scathing critique of my choices referenced Florida or the Bahamas), steering me to much more stylish picks. Buddy's also an artist (he constructed and painted a screen for me decades ago--in the Cranberry Hole Road days--that I still use and that visitors still comment on) and a cognitive psychologist, which can come in handy when you're in the emotional throes of a move, a renovation or restyling. Give him a try, even if your place just needs a refresh, a new look. He'll help you choose what you need. Now I'm thinking of seeking his help for a closet renovation.

Mario is a master craftsman and his work is incredible. He helped renovate our basement into a one…read morebedroom apartment, which included turning an 80 inch closet into a complete kitchen including a dishwasher. You can see it in one of the posted pictures. Mario is incredibly detail oriented and thoughtful. He is amazing at communicating all aspects of the job and problem solving any situation that comes up. He takes great pride in his work and his relationships, his prices are very reasonable and you never feel like you are being taken advantage of. I am so happy with our basement, I smile every time I am down there. I can't wait to work on future projects with Mario! https://imgur.com/a/OXnEA

From the start, they took the time to understand how our family actually uses the apartment -- something no other firm we spoke with bothered to do. Their team handled everything from the co-op board approval and DOB permits to the design and construction, so we had one team to communicate with throughout. The finished result feels like it was always meant to be this way -- modern and functional but completely respectful of the building's original character. Having one of the partners directly involved in our project gave us a level of confidence we didn't expect. Cannot recommend them enough

This job proved too difficult for handymen and most contractors quoted me outrageous prices. Thankfully, I found Galiono Construction. Gabriel came out on a Sunday morning ready to work. He offered a fair price and finished the job quickly. The door opens perfectly and you can't tell it was cut. I was so happy with him and his partner's work, I asked them to fix a loose tile in the shower. Again, they handled that with ease. I will definitely use them again.

She creatively used every inch of space and was able to maximize storage for us. The ideas she thought of, we would have never thought of and I am so thankful for. Her attention to detail during all steps of the process is so appreciated. The best part is, all the work and designs have paid off in multiples. We recently put our place on the market and received 10+ offers within 5 days at ask and above. Everyone loved all the built ins (entertainment center, mudroom area, built in benches, desk are, storage column) all which were her ideas and vision. I cried happy tears!
