“Anna is a good listener, makes you feel very comfortable and easy to talk about ideas if you are unsure of what you wantand, at the same time adds her good ideas! The choice of colors, style and texture made my home exactly how I wanted, but I did not know how to get there. She has an easy going team of contractors that also works hard and on time.

“Our experience with Caryn Paradis was excellent from start to finish. We had an unfinished basement that we wanted to finish and didn't know where to begin. Caryn talked with us in detail about how we wanted to use our basement and then came up with plans that included all of our needs as well as ideas that we hadn't even considered but should have. She was able to design a space that incorporated areas for everyone in our family, including our young son--even a stage that could be pulled apart for use as couches when he becomes a teenager! Because we live in separate states, Caryn was able to do much of the work remotely with minimal visits to our home to take measurements, etc. She had finish samples sent directly to us quickly and walked us through the decision making process. She designed specific requests, such as a fireplace for my husband and a guest room/office area. Caryn paid attention not only to the aesthetics of the job, but also the practicalities, such as outlet placement and HVAC. She also included amenities such as a well-placed dorm fridge which will come in handy when our son is old enough to use the space as a hang-out with friends. All in all, the job was smooth, well-designed and surprisingly painless. Caryn listened to our needs and then exceeded them. We would recommend her without reservation.”

“Over the past 22 years Kim and I have worked together on many projects. Besides being very talented, she is professional, commited and loyal to her clients and brings a sense of ease that makes her clients feel relaxed. As her fabrication workroom I can say that her attention to detail and knowledge of color and pattern makes her projects stand out. Kim is a designer that I choose to pass on to my clients again and again.”

“Elaine was a delight to work with. She was very responsive which was such a nice surprise when working with a contractor. She remodeled our kitchen, living room, and bathroom. I have champagne taste and a beer budget. Elaine was communicative, found great substitutes that were in our price range, and gave us a lot of choices. Any issues we have had she immediately responds and coordinates a solution within 24 hrs. Her team was really pleasant to work with.”

“We worked with Hartley & Hill Design to completely renovate and redesign our kitchen last summer. They were fantastic and we cannot say enough about how wonderful they were. We met with them and described the concepts that we wanted (functional and classic, keeping in mind that we like to entertain, but we have small children and a busy family life). They put together the design and sat down with us to explain their ideas very thoroughly and also run through the budget. They came up with a fantastic design that we never would have thought possible, incorporating very creative ideas, while still keeping in mind our budget as well as our personal preferences. It was a very collaborative process, with us being as involved as we wanted to be, but not feeling like we had to manage a project; they expertly managed the project for us! All of the subcontractors they hired were first class. The renovation was very well organized, there was consistent open communication, any hiccups along the way (as will happen in any project this size) were managed smoothly and effectively. Needless to say, we are thrilled with the end result. We can't wait to use them again soon to redesign our dining room/living room area. We would highly recommend them!”

“I called on Eclectic Design to design and install window treatments in my new office. I also asked them to arrange and hang wall art. The work was completed on time and on budget. The window treatments are just gorgeous and give my office an upscale and very professional look. Working with Laurene is wonderful experience. She consulted and collaborated with me through the entire process. In addition to being conscious of my budget, she really understands who I am as a person, as well as my business's brand. All of this is reflected in the final result. I couldn't be more pleased. My clients and other professional visitors to my office are impressed too! I highly recommend Eclectic Design Inc. for ANY interior design work, whether it's a personal home or commercial space. You will be as ecstatic as I am!”

“Christie is knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to work with. She helped me choose paint colors, fabrics, sofas, coffee tables, lamps and more for my mid-century modern home. I wanted to keep it simple, but warm and colorful. Christie struck just the right chord. She also introduced me to sources for furnishings that I would not have known about on my own and saved me from costly mistakes and do-overs. If you can find the right designer, your home will come together more easily. I feel so lucky to have found Christie.”

“Desireé worked a miracle for me and my family! Being pregnant and under renovation, Desireé took my small and vague wants and turned it to something so beautiful! She was timely, consistent, dependable, and a great communicator! Kept me involved in all the steps which gave me peace of mind! Desireé and team made me feel like I was on a home network show with the reveal! Best of all, we were able to stay within budget and gave me design tips to make the space adaptable to the seasons! Absolutely enjoyed the whole process and would partner with Desiree again for other projects!”

“This is a great designer. She has wonderful ideas, color concepts and fantastic subcontractors. She is timely, conscientious and fantastic to work with. I would recommend her for projects large and small, commercial or residential.”

“Her office decor in blue/grey, beige, brown and white really caught my heart for my redo! I was looking for something soothing, hearthy with a wow effect at the same time and this picture was so amazing close to what I wanted. I redid my office space and it is exactly what I wanted, thanks to Lisa's design.”
