“Barbara Elliott and team did an EXCELLENT job with decorating and transforming our home to something so special! It is everything we dreamed of and more...the vibrant colors and warmth they brought to our home. The team was very professional and I look forward to future decorating projects with the group. The team was AWESOME TO WORK WITH!!!!!”

“I AM IN "AWE " of MaRae's design abilities! Her ability to apply a solid visual design to my ideas was much more than I expected. After she balanced my vision, it resembled my own private oasis. Words cannot express the gratitude and appreciation that I have for this true professional. MaRae is truly gifted and has an eye for design like no other! I look forward to hiring her and her team for all future projects.”

“Mary Jo was a Godsend to us. When we first contacted her for our full basement renovation including the addition of a bedroom and bathroom, we were under an extremely short timeline. Although I knew making decisions in a short timeframe was far less than an ideal situation, she swooped in and came to our rescue! Her calm and professional approach and valuable input allowed us to efficiently make important and time-sensitive decisions about our remodel including paint color, tile and bathroom hardware selections. She delivered her expert opinions to us in a direct yet flexible manner and worked with our contractor in an extremely respectful and collaborative fashion. Despite the time crunch, she took the time to learn about our preferences and personal style and then made targeted recommendations to us. She was quick-to-respond to all our follow-up questions even after the 2 hour consult and was very generous with her time to help us finalize our selections. Our project was much-improved as a result of her expertise and targeted input and now that the construction work is done, I can see that our favorite aspects of the end product resulted from her direct influence. We recently started phase two of this project including seeking her guidance on furniture selections and placement and recommendations on things like carpets and window treatments. Now that we are able to work with Mary Jo at a more relaxed pace, we are really benefitting from her deep knowledge and expert input. Her “rules of thumb” are helping to determine the optimal furniture placement. When it comes to picking out rugs, window treatments and things like that, since she already learned our personal style, she is able to make targeted recommendations that really make the selection process easy for us. Instead of sifting through hundreds of possibilities, she is able to narrow it down to just a few solid choices for us. We are very grateful to have found Mary Jo. Her knowledge, expertise, direct communication and easy-going style have benefitted our project tremendously. She is our now our interior design guru and I highly recommend her!”

“Kalaa provided excellent service! She displayed a high degree of integrity, responsibility and ambition. She is dedicated to her craft and brought an abundance of creativity and new ideas to my home. I will definitely work with her in the future!”

“I have utilized Studio B for several projects from individual rooms to full renovations. Service has always been outstanding and Adam and Rachel come up with thoughtful, unique and beautiful ideas translated to reality. It's nice to have guests over and compliment you on 'your' taste! I've been extremely satisfied and would not hesitate to recommend Studio B.”

“We hired Mrs. Janice Dietz of the Consulting House to assist in selecting materials for our new home that was under construction. Our project consisted of selections for flooring, plumbing, lighting, interior and exterior colors, cabinet design and all miscellaneous details and decisions that come with home construction. Janice is the measure of a great interior designer. She displayed expert customer service. She was readily available and met all time line requirements. Janice presented a good eye for color and knowledge of materials. For the entire process, Janice was endlessly proactive in advising and educating us. At no time were we overly influenced by her own taste or ideas. Her excellent listening skills allowed her to take our vision, taste and budget and transformed our project from good to gold. We found it to be well worth the investment in seeking out such a skilled and professional counsel as Janice and intend to utilize her services again for the selection and specification of furniture and accessories for our home.”

“I hired Reem and her team to renovate my kitchen which was in horrible shape - the previous owner did little in regards to upkeep. We live in Sandy Springs, GA, near Chastain Park, the most upscale areas in Atlanta, so we were looking for something very high end in regards to renovations. With the help of one of her contractors, she effortlessly helped produce a masterpiece of art. I would highly recommend her and her partners hands down! A++++”

“Monet has a really good eye for design. She has great communication skills and a genuine interest in making your project look good. She was able to define our design style quickly and make sure we stayed true to it throughout the process. We enjoyed our project with her and are using her for more rooms in our home.”

“Right before the pandemic hit, my husband and I moved from New York to Georgia with our ten-year old daughter and seven-year-old son. I wanted to make our new house special—homey but with unique ‘wow!’ factors. When choosing an interior designer, you need to feel comfortable inviting someone into your home. I wanted a professional with a strong worth ethic, patient, easy to talk with and straightforward. Someone highly creative who could take my ideas and elevate them to the next level. Michele was the perfect choice! So far, she’s totally transformed the kids’ rooms. Tiffany’s room is decorated in a Parisian ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ theme, complete with a poster of Audrey Hepburn. When her teacher noticed her background on a Zoom call, she asked for a full virtual tour and that was such a self-esteem boost for her. My son’s navy, green and gray football-themed room, with a light under his bed and a basketball hoop, will grow with him until he leaves for college. Working with Michele has been an adventure and I’m excited to continue with her throughout the rest of the house!”

“This lady is super-talented and a joy to work with. She truly wants to get to know your needs and hopes as a client and also makes suggestions that incorporate her modern and fun aesthetic. If any "hiccups" are encountered in the process, she quickly took care of them. I highly recommend working with Gina Sims Designs and will be using her for future projects.”
