Featured Reviews for Interior Designers in Montara, CA

Peruri Design Company
Interior Designers in Montara, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 August 2015
“It has been an absolute pleasure working with Sindhu. Not only does she have impeccable taste, she is able to find the happy medium between my husband and me (we have very different views on what we want). She understands clients' needs including style and price points. She has been so accommodating with our schedule - she is more than happy to meet with us late in the evenings or the weekends given our hectic work schedules. I would highly recommend Sindhu to anyone who wants a simple room remodel or a huge house construction/re-decoration.”

Design Loft Company
Interior Designers in Montara, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 December 2012
“We hired Hellen Hsieh, the owner of Design Loft Company, to design our 725 sq ft great room addition. We are so incredibly thrilled with the completed project, it is exactly what we had envisioned. Our existing house was a 1200 sq ft 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. The kitchen and living area was very modest. With two teenagers at home, we needed to expand and wanted more room to entertain. When we started the project we were uncertain if we should knock down walls and remodel the current floor plan and add a small addition or keep the footprint of the existing house exactly the same and add on one large great room. We decided to do the later, however, to get to this point, we went through several different renderings. Hellen provided us with many great options and helped us decide what would be the most economical and feasible plan. She was flexible, patient and was great about pointing out the pros and cons of each option. Her interactions with our architect , contractor and cabinet supplier went very smoothly which helped us to meet specific deadlines. Hellen was maticulous when it came to the kitchen cabinets and made sure everything was ordered properly and our custom stain came out exactly how we wanted. As a designer, she is very creative and knowledgeable. She understood the style and feel we were after. More importantly she was very conscious and respectful of our monetary constraints which helped us complete our entire project within budget. What impressed us most was her understanding of the build process: from the contractors needs, the city requirements, realistic costs and time estimates, appliance installation prerequisites and inspection requirements. We couldn't be more pleased with Design Loft and Hellen's professionalism.”

MAS Design
Interior Designers in Montara, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 September 2012
“We recently finished a remodel of our mid-century kitchen and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results. Tony and Dawn are amazing and their eye for design is impeccable...what I was most impressed with was how detailed they were and that they listened to our needs. We wanted a kitchen that looked great but was also functional, and they delivered! My wife and I both work, so it was important to us to know that they were there to handle all the small details and be on site to work with contractors, handymen, etc. No doubt, remodeling a kitchen is stressful but Tony and Dawn were so accommodating and made the project much easier than it would have been otherwise. The final photo shoot was bittersweet -- everything looked amazing but we were a little sad the project was over since working with Tony and Dawn was such a pleasure. I can't recommend them highly enough. Check out the photos of the Chevron marble back splash in the Yelp photo album toward the end and also on their website.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 April 2013
“Diedre was a pleasure to work with on the remodel of our new home. We listened to each other's ideas, gathered information regarding colors, style and comfort and completed each room with great satisfaction. We discussed the layering process and found it to be a great learning experience for me. We both showed our artistic side and the collaboration went very smoothly. If there was a problem she met the challenge and we are so happy with the final product. Diedre stayed within our budget and we have recommended her to other friends.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 March 2015
“I have collaborated with Ben on various projects over the years and highly recommend his services. In his spaces, one is instantly transported into a magical world filled with grace, beauty, simplicity, and taste. It is no wonder he is a highly published and sought after designer! Layers, colors, textures, patterns, and details meld together in his work, into one glorious ensemble which will delight and soothe your senses for years to come. It is rare to find a designer who can so expertly combine seemingly disparate elements into one unified form. He weaves together classicism with modernity, playfulness with serenity, clarity with comfort, and luxury with restraint in a way that is so effortless these individually opposing elements seem made for each other in the end result. In addition, he knows how to manage client expectations very well, is highly responsive, and attentive. To top it off, working with him is a true joy! There is no pretense with Ben. Warmth, accessibility, and charm, humor, wit, and levity are his defining characteristics, making the process fun. You will not only enjoy your home when it is all said and done, you will enjoy the process of creating it as well!”

She has a keen eye for details and provided me with invaluable guidance, while remaining solution focused towards my needs. She was always looking out for my best interest and would go the extra mile to make sure I was content. Her strong business sense and smooth negotiation skills was impressive and made me feel I was in good hands. I highly recommend Lorie Satzger as a friendly, competent and thorough professional.”

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 Montara, CA interior designer according to the type of work you need.

Why should I hire an interior designer in Montara, CA?


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 Montara, CA 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 Montara, CA interior designer for my home?


Good design and visual inspiration are all around us. Start by searching for interior architects and interior designers in Montara, CA 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 Montara, CA 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.
