I worked with Shelley Sass for design in my whole home remodel. She was ESSENTIAL working side by side with my residential designer and then contractor. Given that this was a whole home remodel, she had input in everything from floor plan, cabinet lay out, tile & stone and then final details like flooring, lighting and paint. She has an exacting eye in creating a functional and beautiful space, and I have no regrets with all the decisions I made based on her input. My contractor also commented she was a pleasure to work with. I will use Shelley again with any future projects! read more

Shelley and Stephen Sass of Shelley Sass Designs recently completed a remodel project of our primary bathroom, guest bathroom, powder bathroom, and laundry room. Shelley and Stephen worked hard to keep to our requested timeline, were extremely punctual and responsive, and took care of our home as though it were their own. Shelley has a very tasteful design aesthetic and it was easy to collaborate to determine exactly what we wanted and needed. She gently guided us along the way, with excellent, thoughtful, and thorough design advice. Her attention to detail (even the smallest!), enthusiasm for all aspects of the design/construction process, and energy in keeping everyone focused and on task was a marvel. Not one day was wasted due to misaligned schedules - everything hummed along brilliantly. We added a number of extra projects to the overall scope - and somehow and miraculously, they kept to the original timeline. Their fantastic sub-contractors ALWAYS arrived on time and I was definitely comfortable with them in my home (even when we were often out of town). Thanks to Shelley and Stephen and their outstanding team, we are absolutely thrilled with the results. HIGHLY recommend! read more

Shelley did a great job in staging our house for sale. We have a large house, so one of the most important insights she had was to stage only the key living portions of the house -- kitchen, dining room, office, master bedroom. Her idea saved us money and allowed potential buyers to see the potential "look" of our beautiful home. She also worked very hard -- by herself -- in delivering, lifting, moving and arranging all of the various elements of home furnishings for an attractive setting. She provided for many details that made a big difference in making our house look comfy and livable, ranging from a bread/pastry mixer to pillows, artwork, dishwater and table linens. We would definitely recommend her services. read more
