Sarah did an incredible job putting together my apartment. I was starting from scratch after moving to SF from the east coast, and wanted to get my apartment furnished and decorated quickly. Sarah made a big effort up front to understand my budget and get a sense of my taste and preferences (even when I didn't know what I wanted myself!). She gave me a variety of choices and themes from which to pick from. She went out of her way to shop for different items in person and to see furniture and decor in person. She was able to utilize discounts whenever possible to save me money. She even took the time to receive deliveries for me and help assemble furniture and decorate the apartment with me.
She is personable, sweet and always had a big smile on her face. She went out of her way to make sure that I was happy with every piece, big or small. She is also very professional and she was constantly focused and attentive. She made herself available to me 24/7 despite her busy schedule, it always felt like I was a priority.
My experience with Sarah could not have been better, I would absolutely hire her again and would recommend her for any project, large or small. She has impeccable taste and an ability to truly transform a space into one that feels like home.

Sarah is amazing to work with. Not only did she accommodate my tight budget, but also made me a part of the process. My tiny studio with a flat layout now looks so well sectioned and I've received so many compliments from family and friends for it's amazing design and creativity.

Working with Sarah was a wonderful experience. She worked hard to get to know my needs and personality, guided me through the process of understanding what would work for me in my space, and did an excellent job putting together a place that felt like home. She had excellent taste, many great ideas, was prompt and professional, and also warm and easy to work with. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

Sarah did much of the interior design in my home--from paint colors to tile patterns, from furniture to throw rugs--and my wife and I are extremely happy with her work. The greatest testimonial came from a real estate agent who was appraising our house for sale and said, "You do not need to stage this house for a sale. Keep everything in place."
Sarah has what I would call a classically-inspired modern taste. In modern fashion, she is not afraid of using color or bold patterns but she does it in a restrained way that complements everything else in the home. Classically, he is very keen on accents--pillows, throws, centerpieces--but the rooms never appear cluttered or overdone. Her taste in furniture and lighting is also inspired by the melding of the classic and modern.
Sarah was great to work with. Dogged, but not overbearing. Inspired but open-minded. And importantly, while she has wonderful taste, she appreciates value.

Sarah is amazing! She is patient, thoughtful, and inspired – a true partner in creating the perfect living space. From Sarah's initial visit, it was obvious she had a vision of how she wanted to decorate our home, all the while incorporating our existing aesthetic and style. She carefully inspected every room, wall and random space with a smile – an excitement that was contagious without question, especially for my wife. Living in San Francisco, it’s very important for us to make the most of every available space. Sarah’s knowledge of interior décor and spacial recognition is remarkable. We cannot recommend her enough! Thank you Sarah
