Martine was so good at conveying her expertise while respecting my opinion, that I then wanted her input on everything else: tile, carpet, light fixtures, colors for painting the interior & exterior, in fact, everything down to the doorbell. My house now has the feel I wanted. I whole-heartedly recommend Martine.

My husband and I first hired Martine several years ago to help us refresh our living room decor…read more She was able to present ideas that appealed to both my husband and I, which helped keep the peace in our household. We were very happy with the outcome, and enjoyed working with her so much that we have since hired her for several other projects, the most recent being a full bathroom remodel. The project was necessary due to extensive water damage from a burst pipe, so the process was financially and emotionally stressful. Martine's calm perspective and humor helped bring levity to the situation, and our new bathroom is stunning! I highly recommend her design services to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, efficient and talented interior designer who is fun and easy to work with. -Emanuelle Gomez, Ashland, OR

He worked with me via email and texting to make me a beautiful table by my dimensions and his craftsmanship. The results are stunning. I never could have afforded a table likes this had it been manufactured by a large company. Nathan is a one man show. He's professional and meticulous. When we went to pick up our piece, we saw other things he is custom making. Beautiful cabinets and mirrors. He makes his own hinges, adds reclaimed metals, unique knobs, and latches. Unfortunately his website isn't always accessible yet? I highly recommend giving him a call if you're looking for something uniquely rustic with homegrown craftsmanship for a less that conventional space and price!

Maria is amazing! We rebuilt our home after the Almeda Fire and having her guidance during this…read moredaunting process was invaluable. Having never built a home (nor until the fire, any desire to do so) we had NO clue how many decisions one has to make during the process. Honestly, without Maria's help, I don't know how we would have ever accomplished it, nor ended with the amazing designer home we now live in. She took our vague ideas (of what we were drawn to style-wise) and brought everything together. Trust me, if you are building a home or planning a remodel... Hire Maria!!!

I've utilized Studio Athena for commercial interior design and also referred her to friends and…read morefamily for other projects. Both her and her team are consummate professionals, and in my opinion are by far the best interior design studio in the area. One of the big benefits of working with them is that due to their high level of experience their project estimates are much more accurate than what I have seen from other interior designers. Their design work is excellent but of course it is always nice to have a project come in on time and on budget. Five stars and I would give them 10 stars if I could.
