Introduction

Good design tells a story. I enjoy working with clients to develop a look that they will love and enjoy for years to come. Whether it is finding the perfect accent chair or developing the most divine new living room. Sometimes it's hard to visualize on your own and that's where I come in to help. It is my job to use my creativity and vision to create a unique look while staying within your budget. .................................................................................................................................................

I have worked with Ariana on two projects and she exceeded expectations both times. She really took time to understand my aesthetic and budget, and made sure my options aligned with my vision. Ariana also helped with execution. She recommended fantastic general contractor and wallpaper installer - and regularly communicated with them about the project. I look forward to working with her again.

Ariana was absolutely amazing and so fun to work with. In just two hours, she transformed my home. She has her own handy man that can come with her that made the process seamless and quick and my home ready for visitors coming that weekend! The best part was she did it all with things I already had! Her follow through and support even off the clock was amazing, giving me advice via text while shopping for final pieces and even following up a month later to make sure I was satisfied. Truly a brilliant designer!

Details: Design of 1 - 2 rooms • Living room • 500 - 1,000 sq ft • Accessories / art selection • Craftsman / Farmhouse • My home, venue, etc.

Wow… Ariana’s services are thorough and detailed. She takes the times to understand your vision, allows you to review a few visual designs / concept boards and will execute when you absolutely love the design. We hired Ariana in the midst of the pandemic and stores were just beginning to open and delivery dates were pushed back by 4-7 months. Yet, Ariana found ways to keep us engaged through the projects. When entering into design services, Ariana charged per hour and if you’d like more of her time, you can purchase that for a reasonable charge. Ariana shared her designer discount with major stores such as West Elm, Crate & Barrel, and CB2 (and families). Very happy with her services.

We had some struggles being on the same page in regards to the design, along with some communication issues which ultimately ended with me canceling the project. That being said even though she may not be the designer for me. She seems to have great reviews from others & her passion for her job does shine through.

We strive to make sure every client has the best experience possible. It is my goal to make sure the design process is fun and easy while bringing your ideas & inspirations to life. Upon starting the process in our initial meeting, you conveyed you wanted a bohemian feel with a balance of feminine and masculine. Then, upon our review meeting, you decided to move in a different direction and pull in a dark and moody color palette. We worked with you to make these revisions, as this is part of the process. Upon showing you the dark and moody color palette, making additional revisions, working with you, and even investing additional meetings to make sure we were curating the vision you were looking to accomplish. You then decided the dark and moody is too dark, and now you want to gravitate towards classic neutrals. We then sat down and made another round of revisions because ultimately, my goal is to make sure you are happy and love the finished result. You then decided to gravitate toward urban abstract and wanted to pull in accents that reflected this. I enjoy working above and beyond to make sure my clients love their finished spaces. That's what brings me joy, and is part of the process, but unfortunately, we just couldn't get there and meet your ever-changing vision. By the 5th round of revisions, it just seems like you didn't know what you wanted and would always find something wrong with the design. Thank you for allowing me the pleasure of working with you, but I also agree that we may not have been the best fit. Unfortunately, no matter how much work we put into this project, there was just no meeting your expectations.
