Steinhafels
Interior Designers in Gurnee, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 January 2016
“We enjoyed working with Ann. She was very helpful in guiding us through our selections and very open to our input. It was truly a collaborative effort. I like how we were able to communicate by phone, email and text. She was always available.”
ANAHITA Studio
Interior Designers in Gurnee, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 September 2022
“We loved working with Ana. She gave us a great consultation on our kitchen remodel. We had a constrained budget; however, Ana was incredibly accommodating to our needs and budget restrictions and gave us great suggestions for cabinet color, countertop material, appliance/fixture sourcing, and furniture (bar stools) selection that integrated perfectly with our desired aesthetic. We were able to execute her design suggestions easily with her guidance and everything ultimately came in within budget to our delight. The final result is a very clean, modern kitchen that we absolutely love! We were so pleased with her work that we asked her to help us with remodeling our tenants kitchen downstairs. She chose neutral but modern colors and helped us choose countertops that would be durable without compromising style. She has a very good eye for clean, modern spaces that are functional and attractive, and she is good about listening to your requirements and proposing designs that work for your needs. I highly recommend working with her.”

“Jen is great to work with. She always has solid ideas and suggestions for my projects. Additionally, she always finds the time to work with my clients; be it an in-home consultation, creating an idea book, or sitting down for hours to go through lighting catalogs. I only have good things to say about her services and I will definitely continue to recommend her to our clients.”
Your Favorite Room By Cathy Zaeske
Interior Designers in Gurnee, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 June 2012
“I worked with Cathy Zaseke from "Your Favorite Room" on the re- design of my family room basement. Two years after I lost my husband to cancer, I decided that myself and my twin 8 year old boys needed a new fun place to hang out and was all ours. A new beginning. Cathy took my very bright fabric I found, and designed a bright, creative space, to really live and use every inch of my basement. She truly listened to me and my ideas, and came back with a complete plan and even stayed within my budget. She was great to work with, and I really appreciate all the hard work she put in to make this space our number one place to hang out.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 August 2013
“Jacquie is an exceptional designer with a fantastic eye!! She is able to help with a small design project (such as giving a room a "facelift") or she can manage a large construction project from start to finish. Jacquie is great at understanding a person or company's own style, rather than imposing her own style upon them. I have worked with Jacquie on multiple corporate projects as well as personal projects, and have referred her to multiple friends and relatives. I can't say enough great things about Jacquie's work, plus she's a great lady to boot!! Highly recommended!!”
Michelle's Interiors
Interior Designers in Gurnee, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 April 2013
“We hired Michelle to help us redesign our master bath and are absolutely thrilled with the outcome. We wanted to create a spa like setting complete with a larger shower, luxury whirlpool and other creature comforts that women enjoy. Michelle came up with a stunning design that involved some changes of moving a wall, adding pocket doors and relocating some of the plumbing. Her plan included all the materials to be considered for the project and paint colors. We love the whirlpool that is large enough for two and has these fancy lights that change colors as the pool is on. Her design incorporated the existing master bedroom and she helped us with some ideas there also. Michelle is very creative, full of energy and an absolute joy to work with. There are many great designers in Chicago and she is definitely in that elite group of designers.”
Expressive Interiors by Marietta Calas
Interior Designers in Gurnee, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 January 2013
“I have been working with Marietta for several years. I got connected with her through my niece who also has worked with her. She has helped me redecorate my family room, my bedroom and my bathroom. I don't have an extremely large budget and am terribly indecisive. Somehow Marietta seems to be able to work through all of that and come up with some fantastic ideas. One of the most important factors in dealing with Marietta is that I trust her implicitly. Her taste is impeccable, her vision extraordinary and her patience unending. I currently have another project on the horizon and will be using Marietta for that as well. I would not hesitate to recommend her to friends and family. A decision that we live with forever!!!!”
Warren Barnett Interior Design

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 February 2014
“The professional service I received from the staff at Warren Barnett was 5 star from start to finish. They guided me through designing and furnishing my entire dining room. They also helped me polish a look I was trying to go for in a few of my other rooms. I can't wait for my next dinner party to show it all off to my friends.”

“Crescendo Interiors is top notch. Eileen does a fabulous job understanding what your needs are and then finding just the right decor to meet those needs. She works hard and is attentive and on top of each and every project. She has years of experience and it shows in the quality of her work and in her professionalism. She can help with any project, big or small, as well as any style of decor. I cannot say enough good things about working with her!”
Kelly Brasch Interiors
Interior Designers in Gurnee, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 November 2012
“"Love the light fixtures." "Who is the artist of that painting?" "It's perfect on that wall and makes the bathroom." "This is just a sampling of the many compliments we received after Kelly gave an updated look to our kitchen and powder room. After seeing her work her magic at our daughter's home, we knew we wanted her to do the same for us. She is a highly talented individual with excellent taste. Kelly pulled everything together with her eye for color and accessorizing. We would recommend her without hesitation. She recently completed her latest masterpiece: our family room. Her photos on Facebook show our family room looking like something you would see in a magazine. It is incredible. Dennis S. and Danielle B. – Lake Zurich, IL”

Interior Designer FAQs
Interior design services in Gurnee may be offered in different ways, including hourly rates, fixed fees, or a percentage of the project’s total cost, which will vary depending on the project itself. Interior design costs can range from £50 to £200 per hour, or a fixed fee between 5% and 20% of the total project cost. The key thing is to be very clear about your budget and your scope from the start, to ensure your designer can advise you on what is achievable. And remember, their contacts will probably save you money. A contingency fund of 10-15% is also recommended, especially if open-ended structural work is involved.
When considering hiring an interior designer, you can ask the following:
  • Experience: Ask about the designer’s background, education, experience, and previous similar projects.
  • Design Process: Gain insights into the designer’s project approach, design philosophy, preferred style, and how they incorporate client preferences. Review their Houzz portfolio to evaluate their design style and compatibility with your tastes.

What’s the difference between interior designers and interior decorators?


These two closely related professions are often mistaken for the same thing, however, there are some significant differences to be aware of before deciding which to hire. An interior designer, sometimes known as an interior architect, can run full renovation and structural design projects, and will use specialised knowledge of interior architecture, construction systems and components, building regulations, materials and furnishings to arrive at your dream home design. Interior design companies are able to plan spaces and room functions down to the last detail, and can help design and renovate interiors, from initial planning phases to placing the last decorative accessory. A decorator on the other hand will typically be involved only in the aesthetic layer, the “look and feel” of a space, and won’t be able to assist in renovations that require structural work. Interior decorators normally come on board after all structural work is complete. So choose your Gurnee, IL interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Gurnee, IL?


They say life is what happens while you’re busy making plans. Some of us are just too preoccupied with a career and/or family to think about colour schemes, wallpaper, flooring and lighting. A professional interior designer in Gurnee, IL can save you bags of time, stress and months, if not years, of living in a half-finished home. It’s their job to stay on top of the latest trends and to have contacts and visual references coming out of their ears. Interior designers can also save you money, by sourcing products via trade contacts or offering affordable alternatives to blowout iconic designs.

How do I choose the right Gurnee, IL interior designer for my home?


Good design and visual inspiration are all around us. Start by searching for interior architects and interior designers in Gurnee, IL on Houzz. Keep a lookout for images of rooms and features that you really like and save them to your Ideabooks to begin to develop an understanding of your own style and taste. If you notice that photos from the same interior design companies are popping up regularly then that is a good hint that they could be your perfect design match. You can feel most confident if you hire an interior designer or interior design company in Gurnee, IL that has completed work similar to the look and feel that you desire, whether that is a mix-and-match lounge oozing mid-century modern style, a pale and interesting minimalist bedroom with shots of colour, or a beautiful space inspired by Scandinavian design.

You may want to check if your designer is a member of the Society of British and International Design (SBID) or The British Institute of Interior Design (BIID). Both are a benchmark of quality and reliability. And check if your interior designers can offer you the right type of service – some companies are design only, while others can oversee the whole project. If it is the latter that you seek, make sure any sub-contractors used are fully accredited and it is clear who they are supposed to report to. If late alterations are made to the plan, the contractor should receive a change order, thus minimising the risk of a dispute about what was and wasn’t agreed to after the start date.
