Introduction: We really listen to our client's ideas for their space. We thrive on the fact that we can see their vision and immediately begin creating ideas to get the design started. Often times, our customers start off with an idea from a magazine, TV show or a space theyve seen before. By the time we are done its a space unlike any other, and much more than they ever expected. Working with people. I know that sounds cliche but we are about working with people. We enjoy helping them make their dreams and visions become a reality. Yes we are always looking for those moments of gratitude where our client is shocked and overwhelmingly appreciative of the final project. We dont expect tears of joy like they show on TV... but we often get them :). Our goal is to make this experience as comfortable and stress free as possible.

I discovered Thomas, four months ago, after three years of online searching for a local interior designer. Something about his website spoke to me. We made contact and haven't looked back!! In the past four months he has designed three bedrooms, my kitchen and courtyard. He also provided onsite help for the installation of a garden area, plumbing and electrical repairs. We have become fast friends and I don't know what I ever did before him! Thomas is not only a talented designer but he is a wonderful person. If you are looking for help with your home, look no further!! THIS is your man!!

I highly recommend Thomas' service. He is timely with responses, very creative and diligent. We consulted with Thomas about our recent family room makeover. He gave us excellent room design advice, taking into consideration our preferences. Furthermore, he has access to a network of highly skilled craftsmen. We are really pleased with the final outcome; a family room with beautiful design, reflecting our style. We look forward to working with him on further projects!

Hired on Thumbtack

I started looking for designer for a bathroom remodel that I had already in progress. I got a quote from Thumbtack for Thomas and started working with him the day after I got the quote. I was in a rush for a design and Thomas was on it! Because my demo was going to start the day after I meet with him, he was quick to come up with a design and I was super happy with what he came up with. He took what I had in mind and made some very needed changes to get the best look I can for my bathroom (things I would have never thought of). I have a design and I cant wait to see the outcome of my bathroom once it is complete. Next Thomas and I will be working on my kitchen and I cant wait to see what Thomas is going to come up with for the design. feeling super excited!!

Hired on Thumbtack

Tom did an amazing job! I hired him to help with window treatments & accessories. My husband & I just moved into a new home & things weren't coming along the way we'd hoped. I didn't have the confidence or vision of how to put things together. Shopping with Tom was great! He supported my decisions & listened to what I liked. Working with Tom taught me how to put a room together with confidence & style. My husband & I left for vacation & Tom managed to put everything together. When we arrived home, we were amazed! Our house looked better than we had hoped. It definitely looks professionally decorated but it's still "us." Tom added so many personal touches. He was also able to keeps things functional. We have a 2 yo son & Tom was mindful of keeping things kid friendly. Most importantly, he kept within our budget & was able to work with most of the pieces that we already had. We'd definitely hire him again! There wasn't one thing we'd change!

How did you get started doing this type of work?
As an artist, I found interior design a great way to express my vision and perspective. Yes, I am one of those individuals who watched HGTV all the time and was truly inspired to see how designers were able to change people's lives with their art and skill. I had to be a part of that and show the world and myself what I can do!
