“For our first venture into working with an interior designer, Talena exceeded all expectations in remodeling our kitchen. Her professionalism, prompt responses, and unique artistic vision perfectly matched what my wife and I were looking for. Talena expertly guided us through every phase, providing clear explanations and unveiling cost-saving opportunities to maximize our budget without sacrificing quality. The transformation from a traditional to a modern kitchen was seamless, showcasing her meticulous attention to detail and efficiency. I wholeheartedly endorse Talena and her team for their exceptional interior design services, particularly for those new to kitchen renovations. Eagerly anticipating our next project, I recommend her without hesitation.”

“Do ever you wonder what a truly talented, professional interior designer could do with your living space? Invite Talena over and get your project kicked off. Design is a team project and includes 3D renderings for review. Great one stop shop – design, most purchasing, labor, and an assigned Project Manager. We are thrilled with how the kitchen, living room, dining room, and sitting room turned out. Plan on doing the back of the house in a few months.”

“We have worked with Talena on multiple projects, and the results are always stunning. We first did a kitchen renovation a few years ago, and while it was not a full makeover, it felt like a complete transformation. Talena picked out tile and lighting that I would not have been brave enough to choose on my own. It worked beautifully, and we regularly get compliments on it. We just finished a master bath and powder room remodel with her. This project involved moving a shower and creating a wet room, something I would never have thought of on my own, but that I absolutely love! Again, I am in awe of what she is able to create. And I love that there is always a “wow” factor to her work!”

“Talena and her team are outstanding. They saved my family an immense amount of time and money. They were able to get items faster and at a better cost. I felt they listened to what I wanted and delivered. I love walking into the rooms Talena designed. She’s amazing!”

“Our project was a complete replacement of flooring, removing a high bar and island in the kitchen (along with a load bearing wall) and replacing it with a large counter height island. We also painted the entire house and replaced all furniture in the kitchen / living room.
Talena was great to work with and very responsive to our needs. The materials she suggested made us step out of our comfort zone, but turned out amazing.
The design exceeded our expectations and has made our entire downstairs much more functional and useful for our entertaining lifestyle. Definitely recommend!!”

“I contacted Talena a few years ago to help design my family room using a painting and two sofas that I previously purchased. She did a great job with the layout and selecting coordinating pieces to create a beautiful room. I was so pleased with her work that I contacted her again last year to do the same with my living room. Once again, she did an excellent job designing a beautiful space. She is easy to work with and I would not hesitate to contact her again for future projects”

“Ironically, this review is about a service that I initially believed was an unnecessary expense and ended up realizing I could not do without Talena’s services and I strongly believe saved us money in the long run. My husband and I moved into a house we loved but it needed updating. We started by hiring workers for this and that, but was not achieving a cohesive feel or the “look” we were dreaming of. Finally, I called to see what a decorator could offer our master bedroom/bathroom renovation. Once we met with Talena, we decided to hire her but I was still skeptical. Could she really talk to us for an hour or so and capture our essence and create an unique space that was perfect for us? The answer is a resounding YES!
She listened closely to our dreams and tastes and created an amazing design. It was exceptional because she didn’t force us to accept her vision – she worked closely with us to capture OUR vision. She gave us ideas and design elements we would have never thought of and fabrics and options that we would have never known about without her. Her design was impeccable and her professional touch created a space for us we envisioned but could not produce on our own…..
(continued) “….We asked her to create a room that would be our retreat and she exceeded our wildest expectations – it’s a place we enter and never want to leave.
Once we settled on the design, we asked her to lead the construction and could not be happier. Any major renovation is going to have unexpected challenges, delays and costs but Talena and her team were exceptional in taking ownership of finding the issues and finding solutions while minimizing our stress. We recognized that she was our advocate through every situation – her connections, knowledge of the industry and commitment to us as her client was exceptional. And the work her people do is truly that of a craftsman. Nothing was done halfway.
With Talena, you get a talent beyond your expectations, a partner that understands what you want and a pro that is worth every penny. It wasn’t an investment in her – it was an investment in us and we are satisfied beyond belief.”

“Talena helped me remodel my entire home in 2018. She recommended interior finishes for kitchen, living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. and exterior finishes, paint, shingles, etc. She did a wonderful job and I love my “NEW” home. She was very easy to work with and just a call, text or email away whenever I needed help or information.
With her help, I had the contractors remove walls, doors, windows, etc. to rearrange the flow through my home. The most dramatic affect was removing the wall from between my living room and kitchen. She also helped with the project management and contractors which again were done very well.”

“I loved working with Talena. I did an entire home remodel. She made picking flooring, tiles, countertops, cabinets, etc so easy. She was able to tie in our traditional artwork and furniture into the space, and still keep the transitional design. She also added functionality to the design, in spaces that seemed useless before. The contractor and crew were the best I’ve ever had for a home project. I definitely will, (and already did), call her again!”

“Talena did an amazing job transforming my home into a place that is cozy, tranquil and where I can’t wait to be at the end of the day. She gave attention to every little detail to make my vision come to life. I can honestly say this is the first home I have lived in that truly expresses my taste. I always knew what I liked, but had trouble putting it all together.
I was truly amazed how quickly she caught on to my likes and dislikes which made things go very smoothly which ultimately saved time and money. I highly recommend Talena for any design project no matter how big or small. She is absolutely a pleasure to work with.”

“It was a pleasure working with Talena. Even though our kitchen renovation was a small project for her, she gave us her full attention. She monitored every aspect closely, always asking if we were satisfied. Thanks, Talena!”
