We cannot say enough good things about working with Dee and Lara. What is usually a stressful and…read moreoverwhelming process was, with them, genuinely fun, inspiring, and deeply enjoyable. From the very beginning, they took the time to truly get to know us and our kids - not just our aesthetic preferences, but how we live in our home day to day. That thoughtfulness showed up in every design and functionality decision they helped us make. They were incredibly collaborative and brought us along at every step, making the process feel like a true partnership. They never once pushed an idea or decision on us, but they were also amazing at helping us thoughtfully stretch beyond our comfort zone in ways that ultimately made the home better than we ever imagined. Dee and Lara were responsive, kind, warm, and completely transparent throughout the entire process. We always understood the "why" behind decisions and felt informed and confident every step of the way. They were also exceptionally respectful of our budget. We never felt pressured to overspend, and instead felt like they maximized every single dollar while still delivering a truly elevated result. Their broader team (both internal and external partners) was equally impressive, with a clear commitment to quality and a very high bar for execution. Most importantly, we absolutely love our home. We're grateful for the experience, thrilled with the outcome, and fully expect to work with Dee and Lara for years to come. We would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for designers who are best-in-class, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful to work with.

Working with Diane and Lara at Bleu Leman was such a wonderful experience, especially as someone…read morewho had never worked with interior designers before. I was moving into a new home and starting fresh, and they struck the perfect balance between really listening to what I wanted and gently stretching my thinking in ways that made the final result so much better than I could have imagined. They took the time to truly get to know me and how I live, not just my style preferences, and that personal connection made the whole process feel collaborative and easy rather than intimidating. Beyond their talent, Diane and Lara are simply lovely humans. I genuinely looked forward to our conversations, and I always felt supported, never pressured. They were incredibly clear and organized around purchases and budget, helped me stay on track financially, and were flexible and patient as I changed my mind more than once along the way. I ended up with a home that feels like me, and I'm so grateful for their creativity, professionalism, and kindness. I couldn't recommend Bleu Leman more highly.

Melissa worked with me to do full interior and exterior paint colors. She chose a beautiful combination of colors that make my little house really amazing (warm and cool, neutral and bold). I absolutely LOVE each of the colors and admire the paint colors daily - though wish my kids would keep their hands off of the walls.  Bringing Melissa in towards the end of the project ended up being perfect.  Hiring her was one of my best decisions with the whole project. As we discussed paint, Melissa also gave me guidance on many of the last minute decisions that you have with a project - things I didn't even know I needed to decide (so many little decisions to make). I was thankful that she knew what she was doing and would just make some of these decisions. She really tied the everything together. And my house is so beautiful because of her.  Melissa really made my house really beautiful. Not only is she extremely talented, she is patient, responsive and really lovely to work with. She was a great partner and I miss not hanging out (and learning) from her.  Also, she is ridiculously cool. :)

She is worth every penny of the consulting fee and has saved us from making big mistakes or living in a dreary palette forever.

Rachel listened carefully to our ideas, and we were impressed by how quickly she understood the moods we were trying to achieve in each room. She helped us fine-tune our choices where we were pretty sure what we wanted, but she also suggested colors that we had never thought about -- and these turned out to be absolutely perfect for us. Along the way, Rachel generously offered us advice about some additions we could make to our décor and lighting, all of which we followed, and our house looks so much better as a result. One final note: Rachel could not be more cheerful, energetic, and efficient. We are so grateful to her!

I honestly do not know how we would have made it through without her help. There are 1000 decisions to make from tile to cabinets and paint, along with all of the finishes.

She helped us meet our contractor's deadlines, so we stayed on track to finish the project within 4 months. Everything came out so beautiful!

I found Bob doing a Google search. He came over within a few days, measured and gave us an estimate. He started and finished right on time and when it was all said and done, we were very PLEASED. Painting the cabinets turned out to be a great alternative to replacement, much more cost effective and we were blown away at the difference it made. One word of advice though, they did have to spray some of the material that was affixed to the wall and although they did cover everything in plastic, paint did get on some of our dishes- I would suggest removing anything you don't want paint splattered on or just double checking the coverage. It wasn't a big deal, only a few glasses and mugs but we should've been more cautious.

Rather than go into a fluffy review, I'm going to stick with the facts. -Once we worked out a schedule, he started and finished on the dates he promised. -He showed up on time everyday, finished when he said he would, and was respectful of my house and neighborhood. -The price was great for the quality of workmanship, and never changed. -But best of all for me, after discussing different paint options, he recommended a kind of hybrid water/alkyd trim paint that looks like oil, but doesn't have the stink of oil. My 1929 Vintage casework literally glows with excellence. The trim work looks almost liquid and flowing. I just love looking at it. And that's exactly what I wanted from my remodel that has been a labor of love for the last few years. P.S. Hopefully Yelp won't flag this review as they've done with some others.
