Francine is renovating the kitchen and two bathrooms in my NYC apartment and has been wonderful from the start. I am totally clueless and she is always there from following up with ny contractor to helping me pick out the best designs since I am overwhelmed. I will post photos when all is done. I would use her again and again and recommend her to anyone thinking about doing a renovation. She makes a difficult job easy because of her years of experience and knowledge and elegant aesthetic eye!

Francine was a delight to work with. She took the time to understand our needs and incorporate them into her design. When revisions were needed she was gracious and took our questions seriously. We highly recommend her to anyone needing design services!

Francine was such a joy to work with! She helped me with every aspect for new shades in 3 rooms-and a chair cushion. Francine did a great job and the workmanship was superb!

We knew we needed to renovate our Master Bath but had no idea where to start. Francine came by and within a week she had ideas for changing the layout to fit our needs. She was collaborative with her design and helped us pick out finishes and begin our search for contractors. She was also very budget conscious and we didn't feel any kind of up-selling took place -- she focused on what we needed and wanted. All-in-all she was extremely professional and warm, helping us complete a daunting project when we had almost no experience. Highly recommended!
