"What a shame than in spending a year together planning this client's dream kitchen that the overall takeaway was this. The client did not mention that she is thrilled with the end result of my kitchen and bath designs: the beautiful, fully hand-crafted, custom cabinets made in Vermont, the one of a kind 5' custom brass exhaust hood, unique granite countertops and gorgeous glass tile backsplash. What was not mentioned was all the changes that this client had made, post approval. Not accepting that such changes would affect her completion date, these long time experienced resources of mine all scrambled to try to accommodate her and make her happy, sometimes sending cabinet items separately and making multiple trips. This caused extra work in sorting pieces, and for the installation. There were a few glitches where an incorrectly sized powder room cabinet was fully refunded, and a cracked countertop during installation was replaced while this client was on vacation, at no charge to her of course. My almost weekly on site meetings were never less than 2 hours long, making sure this client had expressed everything on her mind. Almost daily texts and emails were returned and answered immediately, long into the evening if necessary. My takeaway on this experience was that even though you can try to do your best, some people just can not be pleased. And as my business has grown to this level, the law of averages says that one must encounter at least one person like this...."
Denise is a class act and phenomenal designer. We were referred to her by a close friend
when we purchased our new home in Westchester County the end of last year. We relocated from the city and went from
living in a small condo to a large home.
We didn't even know where to start with filling in all the space and
creating an inviting, contemporary space that could now be used for entertaining
and living. We gave her a budget, met
with her so she could get a sense of who we were and what we would use the
space for, and some ideas of the styles we liked. She took all that information and created the
most amazing home for us. We had some
challenging areas in our new home that we deemed unusable; she solved each of
those challenges for us by pulling in her team of experts to tackle each design
issue. We now use every inch of our
house and we love it. What I appreciated
the most about her was her service. We
were never in the dark, she openly communicated with us and she met deadlines
and kept our project going until it was completed. We had heard horror stories about other
designers that never complete projects and are impossible to get a hold
of. Not Denise. She was prompt, professional, endearing and a
pleasure to work with. Not to mention
her years of experience in her industry have allowed her to build a team that
was just as responsive as her. Deb with
window treatments is a true expert, Julia with the faux painting projects we
had her do blew us away and the contractor she referred to do some minor work
was friendly and professional and his work was flawless. Overall this was such a fun and great
experience to work with Denise and her team.
I would refer her to anyone that needs a designer for their home. We are set to work with her again on our
outdoor space and can’t wait to get that started. Thanks Denise for being such a dedicated
professional and so good at what you do.
We get endless complements on our house.
