Working with the Trend Interior Design Group was seamless, easy, and fun. Carolyn had great ideas and suggestions to fit our space and budget. We have a small space, but she listened to what we wanted and created a plan that was better than we could have imagined. The Trend Interior Design Group is professional, knowledgeable, and delivers high quality work. We would definitely recommend Carolyn to anyone looking to improve an interior space!

My wife and I hired Carolyn to redesign our kitchen and living room space. She also supported us with entirely new furnishings and accessories as well as construction management. We are extremely happy with the results! We had a challenging / awkward layout to work with and I'm confident Carolyn's design was best for the space. She was collaborative throughout to make sure our requirements were met.

Carolyn's creativity is very impressive. She helped us with two overlapping projects and blew us away with the selections she came up with for each of them. Seeing our house in the rendering she designed was so far from anything we'd have ever come up with on our own. She was always professional in meetings and quick to respond to any questions we had. We knew she was the right choice as soon as she got involved and started sharing her thoughts. She was very quick and thorough in picking up on styles and colors that we liked and applied that to her own vision coming up with a very impressive design. We're so happy with everything she did and look forward to working with her again. Thank you!

Carolyn helped me fine tune my selections for my new office. She sorted through my many finds and consolidated them into a mood board that I’m really excited about. She understood what I was looking for and met me where I was at budget-wise. She’s provided exactly the kind of help I needed!
