"Denise was very helpful and was even willing to shop for me while I wasnâ t with her! This was especially helpful because I had a new baby at home. By her bringing me the samples and designs to my home, the experience was so easy! She also has great taste in interior design. I highly recommend hiring Denise in order to elevate any space in your home! -Lauren"

"Very Professional and easy to work with. Carolyn is both extremely creative and efficient. She provided us with excellent ongoing information about the project's progress and costs. She spent a huge amount of time on the initial proposal and the result of that was that we entered into the work phase feeling confident about the success of the outcome. She did a great job of incorporating in the pieces of art and furniture that we wanted to keep. We would definitely work with Carolyn again."

"Dora Brigham Interiors did an amazing job on our remodel project! They created a thoughtful, sophisticated design and saved us through their sage advice and relationship management skills with the contractor and other vendors. We transformed our 1950s kitchen and family room into an contemporary, elegant space that looks beautiful, but still feels warm and inviting. DBI thought through all of our needs with a toddler and our love for cooking and hosting parties. They created wow features â eye-catching color contrasts to a stunning rock crystal chandelier. They designed around our life â creating space I didnâ t think existed for better flow and storage. They paid attention to the details â down to the gorgeous handles that are perfect for big and little toddler hands. I would recommend Dora Brigham Interiors 100% on design alone, but it was their support on helping us manage difficult situations with our contractor that compelled me to write this review. I would have been extremely stressed and over budget without their resources and willingness to go above and beyond what some would consider â designâ work. They know the industry, they have the â eye,â and they have the resources to help make your design dreams become a reality."

Interior Design and Decorating questions, answered by experts

Hiring a high-quality interior decorator should always start with reading through online reviews to see the kind of experience other homeowners have had. You can narrow down your search and then ask the remaining companies for references and examples of their past work. It’s during this stage that you’re likely to find a company that suits your specific tastes and one that has experience with the style you want to bring into your home. You should consider calling references to ask about the process and the homeowners’ experiences with the decorator before, during, and after service.

One downside of installing a soffit above your kitchen cabinets is that it may make your kitchen appear smaller. This visual illusion occurs because the soffit may make the cabinetry and ceiling appear shorter. However, the benefit of being able to hide unsightly wires or plumbing or HVAC fixtures may be worth the disadvantage of a smaller-seeming kitchen. Consider making your kitchen appear larger by finding ways to add more light and visual appeal to the high spots in the room.

Look to the professionals when figuring out the secrets to styling a bookshelf. Place decor in varying heights, mix colors and textures, and always create a balanced overall design by alternating where you place extra decor items. Most importantly, don't overfill the shelf. Leave a bit of open space to deter clutter.

While finding a local interior designer whose portfolio you like and whose fees match your budget is important, they should always have appropriate qualifications. Some states require interior designers to be licensed, and most will have a degree in interior design and certification through the National Council for Interior Design Qualifications (NCIDQ). You can also consult our directory of interior designers to get started.
