Neela Woodard Design

We love everything about how the project turned out, and Neela was a full professional every step of the way. Neela helped structure the design process in an easy, understandable and fun way. We never would have approached it the way she did so, with the stellar results, we're very glad we hired her. The installation also went smoothly. We had trouble with one contractor and Neela was a tremendous advocate, always getting involved to make sure the work was done as expected. We let her know our budget and, although we managed it ourself throughout the process, Neela provided detailed invoices for us to track. She also was very open about which pieces were more or less expensive than for what we were getting so we could invest money in something important (e.g., a prominent break front) as opposed to something less so. The one downside was that the process took longer than expected, so if there are specific timeline considerations (which there weren't for us) that should be established up front so everyone can level-set expectations. Neela also felt like a friend, and always gave us appropriate advice for our home and our lives. We definitely would use her again and would and have recommended her.
