We highly recommend Sara Lee, owner and designer of SISU Home Designs. Our home was built in 1948,…read moreand the kitchen was in desperate need of a remodel. Sara met with us to formulate ideas, color schemes, etc., and came back with a plan. Her creative and innovative strategies included ideas we never would have considered, much less dreamed. She introduced us to contractors with whom she had established trusted and solid working relationships. They gave us responsible, reasonable quotes, and we chose the one that most aligned with our goals and working environment. We began with updating the electrical systems of the kitchen and surrounding areas. That process enabled us to catapult into the 21st Century with novel appliances and amazing lighting design. The pristine cabinets were custom made and of high quality. Sara helped us pick out and/or shop for every detail - faucets, hardware, appliances, flooring, countertops, backsplash, etc. and arranged a timely delivery and installation calendar. My husband, the major chef of the family, wanted a place to hang the pots and pans, so Sara designed a beautiful space with cherry wood paneling. She included the wood throughout the kitchen, utilizing its rich colors in a beautiful waterfall counter for lounging, our favorite spot for coffee (or cocktails). She created space that we didn't know existed. Now meal preparations are filled with music (new sound system), singing and dancing around our beautiful tile floor, and wonderful aromas from our expanded, dual-fuel stove. We love it! Our family and friends are amazed and delighted with the transformation.
Sara guided us through every step of the way, with compassion and compelling intuition, ever mindful of our needs, desires, and budget. Her knowledge and skills developed over years of experience within the industry are vital to any home design project. Her magic touch beautifully metamorphosized our "this old house" into our unique and wonderful home.
