Carla is fantastic! Over the 15 years that we've worked with her, she has helped us decorate a new home, update that home over the years, and design and decorate a new second home from ground up construction. She's easy to work with, understands our needs and our style and is able to stay within whatever budget we set. She always presents several alternatives for each room in an organized way that does not overwhelm us. Every space she has helped us with is comfortable and functional and looks beautiful and finished.

I have enjoyed working with Carla for more than 10 years on several projects including design and finish elements and decor for our home in Chicago, 3 renovations on 2 vacation homes in Snowmass, Colorado, and finish and design guidance on our vacation home in Palm Springs, California. Carla works collaboratively and really listens to my thoughts and ideas, incorporating them into a cohesive, overall scheme. She is cost conscious and thorough — exploring design multiple design options efficiently so your hourly fees (which are very reasonable) is never inflated. Carla is a consummate professional and a delight to work with!Read More

In 2020, I felt the need to refresh the family room and kitchen in our 12-year-old house. I knew exactly who to call: Carla, who had created the original design and decor in 2008 when we built the house. She has impeccable taste and an eye for color, and I absolutely love working with her. Carla gets to know her clients, understands their taste, and brings ideas that are practical, lasting, and beautiful. While in 2008 she helped me design and furnish the whole house, she has remained close over the years and helped me finish little things over time. In 2020, we needed some updated lighting, new kitchen chairs and family room furniture re-upholstery, but the original plan was still classic and beautiful, as well as comfortable for our family. Carla recommended washable fabric for our sofa, which is the frequent resting place of our dog. (We love it!) She brought modern, bright ideas for lighting that changed the room without breaking our budget. She replaced old kitchen chairs with new, modern, comfortable and beautiful seating. We continue to love our forever home and will continue to call on Carla when we need to make updates.Read More

Carla was the best.
We could not have designed our home without her.
She took ownership of the project and worked closely with the builder to make sure our vision was met.
She has a very creative mind to design within all types of styles.
Most importantly she designs within budget and stays ahead of the construction timeline.
If I were to build another house I would hire her in a heartbeat.Read More
