We had a fantastic time working with Victoria and her team over our 6-month assignment. My husband and I lack all artistic/design talent, so we relied on her 100% to:
1) help us understand our budget and develop a staged timeline,
2) understand our (very different) tastes and come up with a design that is appealing to both of us and is "uniquely ours" - a task I thought was impossible;
3) make sure the design is as beautiful as it is functional, and will be able to last for years to come through several stages of life, and
4) complete the project on time and within budget, despite our crazy lives and schedules.
Victoria brought a tremendous amount of creativity and suggested ideas/layouts/colors that we never thought of or imagined before....and while it sometimes took us a while to get comfortable with these out-of-the-box ideas, we never regretted implementing any of them. It's very satisfying to walk into our house and feel like the space truly reflects our unique personalities, and not some design catalogue. All our friends/visitors immediately comment on the beauty and uniqueness of our interiors, ask how it all came together and start considering hiring a designer themselves.
We are busy professionals, and her team was incredibly patient with us to make decisions, find a time to meet, and even helped oversee furniture deliveries, paint jobs, handled tailoring, returns, and installations...we honestly couldn't do it on our own without their expertise, hard work, professionalism and kindness.
They're also just a fun, energetic team to work with. Dealing with budgets, contractor and delivery people is highly stressful, and they were always on top of it, always patient, always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything was handled properly, within timelines and budgets.
We couldn't speak more highly of Victoria. We love our house and hope you get an opportunity to work with her!
