"Zach did plans for 2 homes for me and he did a wonderful job. One was a complete tear down and rebuild. He was meticulous with details and has true design talent. I would hire him again in a minute."

"When I moved into my home, I knew I needed help with everything from organizing and decorating to selecting paint colors and creating a space that felt cohesive and welcoming. What I didn’t expect was how much of an impact Abigail would have on my family’s life. She has an incredible eye for design and organization, but what truly sets her apart is her ability to transform a house into a home. She listened carefully to what was important to me, worked within my style, and helped create spaces that are both beautiful and functional for my family. Throughout the entire process, she was professional, patient, creative, and genuinely invested in helping us create a home we love. Her talent is remarkable, but she’s also simply a wonderful person to work with. I am incredibly grateful for everything she has done and cannot recommend her highly enough. If you’re looking for someone to help organize, decorate, redesign, or bring new life to your home, you will be in excellent hands."

"We have worked with Cecy Gillen Designs on three home renovations (our primary bathroom, installing a mudroom, and installing a laundry room with cabinets and shelving) and we cannot recommend Cecy and her team highly enough. She has an excellent eye for design. Every time we present her with an idea, she internalizes our vision and improves upon it with her own great ideas. She responds to our questions and concerns in a timely manner and her team is efficient and friendly. We look forward to working with Cecy Gillen Designs on future home improvements."

High end architect specializing in making a house feel like home!\nI make people’s dream homes a reality.
