“We recently completed a large and challenging beachfront home project in Dana Point with Jodi Fleming Design, and I can’t say enough about how exceptional their team was throughout the process. As custom home builders (TM Grady Builders), we collaborated closely with Jodi’s team, the architect (CJ Light & Assoc.), and the clients, and it was an overwhelmingly positive experience from start to finish. Jodi Fleming Design excelled in every phase—their planning and design work on the front end was impeccable, setting a strong foundation for the project. During construction, their coordination and collaboration were top-notch, making our job smoother and keeping everything on track. The finishing touches, from furnishings to embellishments, were nothing short of wonderful, bringing the home to life in a way that exceeded expectations. The end result? A stunning house that the clients absolutely adore. We’re currently working with Jodi’s team on another exciting project, and once again, their partnership and creativity shine through. If you’re looking for an interior design firm that delivers excellence and makes collaboration a breeze, Jodi Fleming Design is the real deal. Highly recommend!

“Ava and Arlene have proven to be the one constant, stabilizing force of our home renovation in Studio City. Our project has been a nightmare. We've been through 3 general contractors, countless subs and trades hired and fired, shoddy workmanship and surprise issues leading to costly re-do's not only twice but sometimes yet again. A&A Design has been with us from the beginning and never wavered. They've held our hands and encouraged us to continue and fight the depression of disasters. They've brought in tradespeople to save us from incompetence and the frequent case of workers gone missing. Their scope is all encompassing from interior to exterior, fabrics to lighting, custom millwork and sourcing of everything from furniture to fixtures. All of this achieved by Ava and Arlene with kindness, obvious experience, informed design choices and suggestions in a relaxed yet competent professional manner. They truly have been our rock through a very difficult project of nearly 2 years. Finally back in our home, we are able to enjoy and appreciate the many beautiful, enhanced and more functional surroundings the designers guidance has afforded our new, improved lifestyle. Sophisticated yet subtle, understated while elegant, playful textures and patterns cohabit with clean lines and gentle curves or geometrics. They are good. They know their stuff and they listen. The relationship is one of mutual respect and working together while maintaining focus toward achieving positive result. We are fortunate to have found and worked with Ava and Arlene, and while it will sound cliche, we could never have made it through these past 20 months without them. Our home is so much better for the knowledge, vision and persistence both designers have provided. We can't thank you enough and are most grateful for everything you've done for and with us. You both have earned that hummingbird cake!”

“Donna was the first interior designer to hire me when I was just starting out and for this I am forever grateful. She genuinely cares about and respects the contractors she hires to help achieve her visions and her warm personality is an added bonus. Her drive to achieve perfection while creating timeless, unique interiors is inspiring.”
