I recently contacted Rochelle Interiors to give me advice on a small job. Most only want large jobs, all I needed was one room. She was happy to help and got back to me quickly. Within five minutes of walking in the room, she already had good recommendations on what would work better. I tried her suggestions and it looks great. She has also been quick to respond to my follow up questions. I would highly recommend her. I would definitely use her again. Kim Martinek read more

We called Rochelle based on the reviews alone to help with paint, flooring, lighting, countertop, and other selections for a remodel of our kitchen, dining room, and living room. We were coming up on some deadlines and afraid of making homeowner mistakes. First Rochelle asked if it was an emergency and whether she needed to come out that day. Even though it wasn't that urgent, she was still out quickly to help. Rochelle was great and a lot of fun to work with. She took the time to learn what we wanted to achieve and in just a few visits quickly helped us to narrow in for the key upcoming items. What we really loved was that she gave us the space to present ideas and then helped us learn what would work and what wouldn't. For example, with our dining room chandelier, she had us pick half a dozen we liked, send her the pictures, and then together we walked through the possibilities. Thanks to Rochelle our remodel is beautiful and we enjoy it every day. read more

Rochelle Mella is a color genius! I've used her to choose interior paint colors for both of my homes. She also was hired by my employer for our office interior colors. In all cases, I / we would have chosen the wrong paint colors. Rochelle came to my home to see my furniture and art work, then we went to the new home. She pondered the paint colors while keeping in mind the wood floors, slate fireplace surround, art and furniture I already owned, viola, the perfect paint color and sheen choice! I would have spent $4,000 on the wrong paint color. She saved me thousands of dollars and I love the color. With my office, she considered the art work's framing, existing countertop colors and also saved my boss $$$$ by choosing the proper paint and flooring colors to enhance what was already in the office. It's perfect! Again, we had thought of a different color scheme completely and were very wrong. Now on to furnishings... Rochelle can see what an interior will need to become a beautiful home. From furniture pieces to finishes to floor coverings to vases, plants and all the extras that make a cohesive look that will enhance the space. I will never do this on my own again. Rochelle will make a space more beautiful while saving money with the correct choices. Not to mention the stress of trying to make these decisions on my own! I will always have Rochelle make my design decisions. read more

We hired Rochelle to do two projects at the same time: help us replace all furnishings (after losing everything in the CA fires) and redesign & coordinate resources for a major remodel on the new home.

Rochelle was easy to work with, very conscientious, and she delivered on her promises while keeping us within our budget. We continue to work with Rochelle as we fine-tune our home and are thankful for her professional, high quality and delightful service. read more

We so enjoyed working with Rochelle that we consider her a new friend! She was recommended to us by our Contractor, and those two worked very well together, drawing plans and executing them, on time and on budget. Rochelle was always on time, organized, and super attentive to our special needs for accessibility. Jane has MS, uses a wheelchair or scooter full-time, so we had to replace a tub with a roll-in shower, lower cabinets, counter-tops and appliances in a bathroom and the kitchen, and all have worked out to perfection. We highly recommend Rochelle for remodeling or new construction - she's terrific! Lloyd & Jane W. read more

Rochelle did our complete kitchen remodel five years ago and now she's helping us with our bathrooms. Our kitchen is so awesome, and all of our new guests tell us so when they first walk in. We basically knew what we wanted to achieve but didn't know how to get there. She asked us a lot of clever questions that allowed her mind to see what we were seeing in our own. Then she put very specific sample recommendations in front of our eyes, which made a hazy path super clear. She helped us with those winnowed-down choices too. What you will like about Rochelle is her confidence in what she recommends, and her ability to let your eyes see what her expert eyes do. Her occupation is a blend of art and science. I'm sure there are levels of expertise in it. She truly is a Jedi master. read more

While undertaking a kitchen renovation of my 1885 one-room-schoolhouse home, Rochelle was indispensable in her support and advice. It was a scary undertaking, as two walls were knocked out by my contractor, Rochelle was calming, reassuring, and encouraging. She offered creative and practical solutions to any problems that were unavoidably encountered during the process. She saw the "big picture" was conscientious of design decisions that maintained continuity of style throughout the house. She tactfully steered some of my crazy, out-of-the-box ideas in a sensible direction. She found effective ways to reuse many of the materials that helped trim costs and contributed to the character of the space. She was always accessible, often offering over the phone advice with urgent decisions. When deciding to invest in a costly remodel, having a good designer is integral in achieving a successful outcome. With Rochelle, you get the whole package; competence, talent, dependability, and professionalism. read more

After a short conversation with Rochelle, we found that she could fix the stumbling blocks that had long prevented us from going forward with a kitchen remodel. Rochelle listened to what we wanted, how we used the space, and what kind of materials we liked. She then came back with a plan, including a timeline for the project. Rochelle held our hands through the whole process and was SO easy to work with. She guided us through making choices, contacted the subcontractors and advocated for us when minor problems occurred...AND we stayed right on budget! The contractor and all the other providers were fabulous and the work was high quality and done in a timely fashion. We are thrilled with our new kitchen - and with the work that Rochelle did for us!

Overall, a very good experience, and a very kind lady. read more

From the very beginning, we knew made the right choice of hiring Rochelle to help us figure out to do with the 1970s house we bought.

Rochelle took the time to get to know my wife and I and our lifestyle and how we like to spend time in the house. She is a great communicator and coach. Over the course of a few weeks, we had a few in-person meetings, a few meetings on the phone and lots of email dialog. Rochelle was so easy to work with! She let us know in what order to start making our selection appliances, flooring, cabinetry, and counter tops so that everything would work together, and she helped us know where to splurge and where to skimp so that we could have a beautiful result without breaking the budget.
