I needed a designer to help me bring my vision for my startup, Musicians Playground, to life. Sashya and team started with a meeting to understand my brand at length and the goals I had for the project. They produced a floor plan that would maximize efficiency of our space and meet the requirements of our brand. From flooring, to paint, to electrical - they handled all aspects of the project in great detail and with the utmost organization. The thing I am most appreciative of (besides our absolutely stunning space) - is that Sashya and team supported me in many ways they were not contractually obliged to. For example, pushing for savings in places I wouldn't have tried, managing contractors (one needs a part time job just for that), being resourceful with the money we had, and emotionally supportive of the process we were undergoing --- it all made for a journey I will be forever grateful for! If you are looking for a "small team that does big things" kind of experience - this is your place and these are your people! Thanks so much Sashya and team for everything! We can't wait to open a second location with you!

I hired Andra B. D. largely due to the reviews I read on Houzz…read more Background and what worked - The project was for a master bedroom to be redesigned in terms of furniture and soft furnishings only. It was completed largely on time with most of the delays only due to furniture delivery from overseas. About roughly 15% (of value) of the furniture recommended by the firm actually met the aesthetic and practical requirements of the room. What did not work - I felt the design work lacked creativity and fell short in practical as well as aesthetic considerations. It also was an unpleasant surprise that most of the initial budget for design, development and implementation was used up in the design stage itself given the quantity and quality of output. In their initial presentation I was shown two largely similar design themes of one monochromatic look. Since this was my first time using an interior design firm, I trusted them that the subtleties would lie in say - luxurious texture or use of unique materials to justify the hiring of an experienced designer. Maybe there would be an aha! down the line. Practical considerations were communicated to them such as its a bedroom therefore the curtain treatments should block the light, the bed should be solidly made etc. Aesthetic considerations were also communicated such as nicer finishes were needed, furniture should have something special in terms of design etc. Otherwise why hire somebody ?! Their actual design picks were pedestrian and fell short of expectations. Consequently I ended up doing the bulk of the research as well as visiting local showrooms to find the right furniture (roughly 70% of value). Some other smaller pieces of furniture that I did leave to them to decide and purchase I am currently looking to donate (15% of value). Returning does not seem to be an easy option through them. The curtains installed made the room look like a hospital room. They let in all the early morning light that we get in the Northeast making sleep difficult. An odd episode with window darkening drapes proved that they did not work with the customized drapes already installed. Now I have replaced them all at additional expense. Unfortunately truthful feedback and questions on invoice amounts led to a breakdown in communication early on. I am very disappointed with their work and am now correcting their design mistakes as I don't want to have to live in one.

They were very thorough and had a lot of reference material we could look at to help us narrow in on our vision. Both Brad and Kendra asked us a lot of questions of what we were looking to achieve and through our input were able to come up with a final look we were absolutely thrilled with! They were very responsive and quick to follow up and came up with multiple alternate ideas when we were unsure about something. Overall we were most happy with the design and color choices that perfectly matched what we had pictured in the back of our minds. They are very flexible whether you're a person who love every minutia of choice or want to throw caution to the wind and let them use their imagination to come up with a design! We would strongly recommend them if you want a unique design or vision that has yet to be discovered!

A key to business success is setting customer expectations and having good customer communication…read more This business did neither. I called for information on Hunter Douglas shades and had a good talk with a woman here, after which we made an appointment for her and a technical person to come by the house a few days later to discuss details about how the mechanized shades work, and look at colors and fabrics.. About five minutes before the expected arrival that day I had a message saying "we" are running late but "we" expect to be there within 15 minutes. About 30 min later though, the doorbell rang and a man stood there. He did not introduce himself but his shirt was labeled "Hunter Douglas". I asked where the design person was with whom I had spoken and who had sent me that message. He didn't know. He came in and I asked if we should wait for her. He didn't know. No attempt to wear a mask or ask if I preferred he do so, and as he walked into the living room I saw he was wearing dirty tennis shoes as he walked on our Oriental carpet--no attempt on his part to remove or cover them. He was very terse (I could not tell if he was shy or upset about coming alone) but did the measuring. I asked what was going on, as I was expecting a designer to come with color books, fabric etc. He offered he had a color book in his car and could go get it, but I had expected to interact with a designer. He was in and out within five minutes. I called the shop, and another employee explained my contact was with a customer, and then, most oddly, proceded to explain to me what this other customer was asking about and was going to order. I stopped her as I wasn't interested at all in another person's order, said I had had a message that "we" were coming and who was this solo quiet man who turned up without ever giving his name even. I asked for my contact to call me back but was told they close at 2p and she would be leaving (heaven forbid they return a call past 2p apparently). I got the email address and sent off an email saying I found this all very unprofessional. I very well could understand running late with a client, but then why not call to say that and ask if we could re-schedule? But sending out this man alone, an employee who clearly was not at his best when speaking directly with customers and who didn't know what was going on even with his own workmate, was unacceptable. She had my email and phone number, but now five days later still no response. Very unprofessional and apparently don't like being called on it! The whole effect was very disorganized and unprofessional.
