Client Testimonials

"I just had the BEST consult with Lisa Staton! Her advice was phenomenal and I was thrilled with how many fun and easy-to-apply design ideas she came up with on the spot. Like a true expert, she was able to quickly spot things that needed to change and helped me understand why they weren’t working. I no longer feel stuck and am excited to apply her ideas! Thank you immensely!"

"I had been wrestling with furniture placement and what functions (dining area vs seating area) to assign to which parts of my combined living/dining space. Lisa discussed the pros and cons of the alternatives I’d been thinking of and then gave me a completely different way of looking at things that I can see will make the room feel at the same time more open and more put together. It was not cheap, but having access to Lisa's perspective and expertise was valuable beyond measure."

"Lisa was incredibly helpful in answering all of my questions regarding my kitchen remodel. She reviewed my overall plan and then did a deep dive into each element, providing specific suppliers for cabinetry, hardware, lighting, flooring, etc. She even gave me a tip on a fantastic kitchen island/table from a local antique shop that she thought would be perfect! Lisa is super accommodating, friendly, easy to chat with & quickly understood my style and intention for the space. I highly recommend!!"

"Lisa been amazing a bringing new design ideas for our forever home kitchen and primary remodel. She is truly talented and brings a ton of creativity while staying true to the character of an old home. During the call, She rolls up her sleeves, brings out the tracing paper and quickly draws up new sketches on the fly. She is also really great about bringing up pictures from past projects as examples. It is amazing how much progress we make in one hour, totally worth it! "

"I booked a consultation for my mom which I attended remotely. In minutes, Lisa came up with a living room design for an underutilized space that had stumped us for decades! Booking a consultation gave us the momentum and confidence to make this redesign happen. Now that we can visualize the end goal, we can have fun updating and using the space. I can't thank you enough for offering hour-long consultations! "

"I was amazed at how much ground Lisa and I covered during our 1 hour call. Her expertise as an architectural designer helped me take a step back from my own process and get a better sense of how to prioritize elements that will restore foundational warmth and character to our home--working our way from core architectural elements without getting lost in styling details upfront. That said, she had awesome recommendations for style details, and she even sketch us through an awkward bedroom layout."

"Lisa is AMAZING! I've worked with Lisa for years, we have a small project and she asked us to move to this Expert model. I was skeptical at first but it was great. We got through a solid list of items and I feel like I have the direction I need. Thank you LISA! "

"It is hard to break out of what is getting me stuck sometimes. Lisa had a fresh perspective that allowed me to use what I wanted to in an unexpected way. She had great recommendations and was thoughtful about what would make the space “me.” She is an excellent resource and the best kind of designer-brings her experience and expertise but cares about what is important to you.

"Lisa answered all my questions and also went on to show me demonstrations on what she was referring to. The insight that she offered was of great help and helped guide me through the right direction. Before the meeting I had about 17 questions and within the hour she was able to answer all my questions in depth. "

"I met with Lisa a few times on how to make my shiny new all white house feel less boxy and cold. In the moment ,she was able to come up with combinations for the living area and dining room and provide recommendations of where to source items. "Layer in hand made and vintage!" I'm learning how to do this on my own and have had a few successes. I've been able to get unstuck with making my new house a home and to get my own creativity flowing."
