Mediterranean Bespoke Work Kitchen Designers in Santa Monica, CA

“We had a fantastic experience working with Beth. We used her a few years ago for our kitchen and then a second time this year for a larger project with multiple rooms. Her attention to detail is exceptional — she thoughtfully considered every element of our project to make sure it matched our style and needs perfectly. She guided us through material selections with expertise and patience, helping us make choices that were both beautiful and practical. We also really appreciated how reliable and transparent she was throughout the entire process. She stayed on schedule, communicated clearly, and kept the budget front and center so there were no surprises. We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend Beth Mack to anyone looking for a talented, organized, and trustworthy designer!”

“Cynthia Bennett & Associates was the design/build firm we selected to remodel our home. We did a gut-rehab of the 2nd floor to create a Jack-and-Jill configuration for our kids’ bedrooms, to bring the laundry room upstairs, and to add an additional bathroom (creating a primary bedroom suite). On the first floor, we added onto the back of the house to create a new (substantially larger) kitchen. We were delighted with the work and the result. We’d recommend Cynthia Bennett & Associates (CBA) to anyone looking for a design/build firm. Our house is in a historic area, with strict approval rules by the local historic preservation board. During the design process, CBA was great about flagging (and finding creative workarounds) for issues that might trigger rejections or additional review time from the board. Making these smart design choices during the design phase streamlined our approval and permitting process. During the build phase, they were communicative and thorough. They documented every step of the process with photographs and paperwork. They handled discussions about fixes and changes fairly and promptly. They helped us find the finishing elements (tile, stone, fixtures, etc) that achieved the look we wanted while staying within our budget. It was a long project (nearly 11 months). In the wrong hands, it could have easily turned into a nightmare. But CBA was definitely the right choice. And now we are living in our dream home.

“This review is long overdue. We worked with Pamela Leone from LA Dwelling to remodel our mid-century modern kitchen from a cramped and outdated mess to a gorgeous and well-functioning centerpiece of our home. Pamela was prompt and professional in the height of the pandemic. I had ideas of what I wanted, and she had the know how and the connections to turn my dream into reality. I was happy to work with Pamela and LA dwelling, and they will be my first contact for any further renovation projects.”
