The three projects were complete home renovations from layout to colors and purchase of furniture and accessories. We strongly recommend her on all aspects of work.”

“Working on the design of my apartment with Brooke Taylor Designs was a delight. As my apartment was a gut renovation, there were hundreds of decisions to be made and Brooke was there for all of them. I was able to be as involved or as hands off as my schedule allowed. The various technologies she uses really helped me to vet through many design options and understand what the final product would look like. I'm so pleased with the results and I am the envy of all my neighbors! I look forward to working with Brooke on my next project.”

“Jen is a great interior designer and has great knowledge on home FenShui. She provided some feng shui consultations for my condo and magically, my career and relationship turned around 180 degree. She is also a great artist. She provided few custom paintings for my client and they looked amazing. I highly recommend her for your home interior and Fengshui consultation. Also, check out her story boards!”

“Betty is one of the most talented, and creative professionals I've ever worked with. I hired Betty to design my Watermill home over 10 years ago. While Betty excels in all aspects of design - style, textures, scale, I found that more than any other designer I have seen, Betty shines when it comes to color. She can put together room after room where colors seem to effortlessly compliment one another. I am a type A person, and Betty was my match. While creative talents are essential in a designer, the best ones have what Betty has - a real business acumen. Betty was uber organized, methodical and every decision we made, had to make sense. I received my invoices with all pertinent information attached for future reordering and/or reference to paint colors, fabric brands, etc.. I interviewed many designers before we hired Betty, and I would say "look no further" Betty has and does it all. On a separate note, I've seen her play tennis, and you'd also be happy to have her couple as your doubles partner as well! Betty was a joy to work with. We had a lot of fun working together and I was beyond satisfied with the project.”

“I was overwhelmed on how to arrange a room to fit two office desks, make it into an entertainment room and storage. Lauren to the rescue...she came to the house, we discussed my thoughts, budget, she measured the room, she knew we can use many of my existing furniture and recommended some add ons. Lauren sent me a few layouts, proposed budget, which she came in under budget, and called me to discuss. Lauren listened and delivered! I’m so happy with the outcome. Love, Love my new room! I highly recommend Lauren!! You helped me and my family be more comfortable ..thank you! Yvette Donohue”

“I have had the delightful pleasure of working with Cindy Kramer on the interior design of our cottage in Weekapaug, RI. Cindy was inspired by our location! Her choice of colors - and overall design was very sophisticated while keeping the connection to our coastal environment. Given the realities of a large family enjoying the summertime beach lifestyle, Cindy was always respectful of our needs. We blended vintage finds and estate sale antiques with a mix of blues, whites and sandy tones throughout. Cindy updated our old and tired kitchen, replaced old tile with hardwood floors, chose fabulous sofas and rugs, created custom designs for our pillows, diningroom window panels and livingroom shades. The result is a perfect blend of beauty, coast and care-free! I love spending time in this cottage. Every time I walk in the door, I breathe in calm. I have Cindy to thank for all of this, and highly recommend her for your interior design project. Enjoy!” — Dorothy Reiser, Weekapaug, RI / Mystic, CT”

“We loved working with Erica whose design expertise completely transformed our living space. She was able to take our small, poorly designed living room and create an open, family friendly space ~ with comfortable seating for 6! She really listened to what was important to us, giving ideas we never considered before, like a custom sectional sofa. We decided to go with all of her suggestions, including ordering the sofa, allowing our personalized space to become a reality. We first met Erica in her shop on Main Street in Chester, CT - a wonderful shop with many unique, high quality handcrafted furnishings and home accessories – and quickly got to know her. We enjoyed her creative, energetic and open style and knew immediately she was the right person to work with. We couldn’t be happier having Erica’s help, whether with design work, or shopping in her unique studio in Chester.”

“Chantal Lawrence is the owner of Total Design Source. Some years ago we collaborated on the many ideas that I had been mulling over for my house renovation. Chantal worked with me to take all of these undefined ideas and turn them into a real plan and a fairly major renovation of the kitchen, dining room, expanded living area and garage. She is knowledgeable, professional, compassionate and very creative. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for anything from a complete renovation to just a refreshing of your space. I cannot say enough about her. Phase 2, Remarkable, stupendous, incredible, fabulous are amongst the adjectives I would use to define Chantal's vision and commitment to a project. I first met Chantal some years ago when I was designing the addition to my house, an antique reproduction cape with a variety of roof line intricacies. Through conversations of needs, wants, form and function, Chantal took my scribbles and ideas and designed a beautiful renovation project which I have enjoyed for some years. Most recently, I was commenting on the need to freshen up and make some changes with a little art and color. Chantal spent all day with me on Sunday strategizing, moving, tweaking, planning until the house looked fresh and new. Much of this was accomplished with many of my own items, just moved or re-functioned to make a more inviting home. Some of it was some new art to complement what was already there but enable the colors of the room to pop! I cannot speak highly enough of Chantal and Total Design Source. Her knowledge of color, design, functionality, access to the very best work rooms from fabric to metal and anywhere in between is phenomenal. Even if you're just thinking about it you owe it to yourself to speak with Chantal. You will be overjoyed.”
