Kim Armstrong is a phenomenal designer and a pleasure to work with. Not only does she create…read morebeautiful original spaces but she has an amazing ability to pull ideas from even a "designed-challenged" person like me, and was able to guide me effortlessly through the decision process. I needed help with the overall look and feel, layout, and product selection of a master bedroom and guest bedroom, plus advice on some window coverings. I chose the Design Concierge service which ended up being a great fit as I did not need the full-service option. The whole process was very smooth and efficient. A key step to her approach is the initial consultation which Kim does in advance of the full day of design at the house. I sent some pictures of the rooms in advance as well as some photos I had pinned from a home design site. She used the time on the call to discuss my goals for the project and to ask lots of questions to get a feel for my style. Kim came to our in person design day a few days later already armed with targeted, creative ideas and with a good sense of what would be appealing to me. You could tell she had done a good deal of prep work in advance. We tackled one room at a time starting with her taking measurements and inputting them into a CAD program so it would be easy to slot existing and new items into the floorplan. Kim has a wealth of knowledge about products and vendors so she easily came up with multiple options for each decision. She would then place each items I had decided on into the design board right on the spot, so I would not be struggling to visualize how everything will look together. I felt like I was not giving her much to go on in terms of feedback but she was able to quickly zero in on what resonated with me, and offered options in different price ranges. While I never felt like she was pushing me into a direction I wasn't comfortable with, she did encourage me to go a bit out of my comfort zone and consider things that would never have entered my mind (which is kind of the point, right?) Kim is ultra-focused and extremely efficient. I really don't know how she covered as much ground as she did on the day she was here, I felt like she made the most of every minute . As a result we even had time at the end of the day for her to tackle a few random one offs that had been bugging me for years and even pick out paper, paint and light fixtures for laundry room The day was a whirlwind but oh so fun! Within less than a week of our meeting she sent me the completed design boards along with an item-by-item list of the products we had selected along with links directly to the vendor sites. She also included detailed instructions /work orders to give to for example the firm making the custom draperies and floor plans so I could remember where everything goes. This made the implementation so easy. I am so pleased with the overall result and the whole process. I highly recommend Kim Armstrong!

Kim Armstrong and her team knocked my socks off. I always wanted to live in a high rise and have a…read moregreat view of the skyline. But, when I found the perfect place, it immediately dawned on me that this place needed professional touch to make it perfect. Kim and her team began by inspecting my blank canvass pad and interviewing me for about an hour. There questions were not directed towards what type of fabrics and colors that I like, but instead, were focused on my interest in music, art, etc. They took my input and went to work. I received great PowerPoint presentations and graphical layouts for what they intended to do with my place. Then, as my place began to take shape, they were open to my input and I was open to theirs. In the end, my apartment turned out amazing. I do not think there is a single think in my home that I would have picked out myself, but there is not a single thing in my place that I do not love and doesn't get rave compliments. Kim and her team worked within my budget, were easy to work with, and I highly recommend them. And, while they tended to do more classical design, they gleefully took on my "modern" project. Here's a link to some work they did along with some comments from my friends. If you're looking to do something modern, post modern, or mid-century contemporary, feel free to check out my place. I like them so much that you can even stop by if you're thinking about hiring them and check out their work in person. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150694005637673.444559.683167672&type=3&l=5bf0243f3b

Lorenzo's design eye is awe-inspiring. As a Realtor, I see many floor plans that are very…read more"creative." Sometimes the views are maximized at the expense of livable space for those, like myself, who have zero creativity when it comes to interior design. I have seen him turn even the most oddly-shaped apartment into a livable space that feels like a house in a high rise. There have also been clients who purchased apartments on the pre-construction market and upon delivery of the unit, they realize that the space feels smaller than anticipated. Lorenzo to the rescue! He turned one particular tight space into a fully-functional living room, dining room that seats a full dinner party and open kitchen for entertaining. Working with Lorenzo is top notch as well. He communicates every step of the way, so there is never a question of what is going on with the project, he uses reputable contractors and I have never had a client dissatisfied with his work or the process. If he can gracefully perform such magic in challenging spaces, traditional layouts are a piece of cake for him. I highly recommend him.

Design perfection! Thank you to Norma for a 10 out of 10…read moredesign. From creating a mood board, to selecting the most comfortable furnishing, to working with me to find alternative options during our design meetings, the experience was truly enjoyable. On the sale side working with Evan, I loved the quick communication over text and the detailed invoices to review. He was always available for my questions or change updates. My only issue was there was no actual signed contract for our big project. This made my husband and I uneasy at times, but Living Modern has an amazing showroom that is not going anywhere anytime soon. You can put your trust in Evan and you can't do any better than Norma's design experience. I would absolutely recommend giving them your business. You will be in good hands!

But Spruced made it easy, understanding our vision, goals, and budget and offering options to help us achieve them.

And when we had change orders, they worked with us to come up with solutions. When issues came up, they made them right. The result is a kitchen that's much more functional and spaces that look and feel brighter and more like us. I'd definitely reach out to them again with future needs.
