I met Sandy through my sister who worked with her on a remodel for their new home. I was hesitant to call because I had worked with designers in the past and never felt they were worth the money. There were several things I wanted to change and improve in our home but I didn’t want to spend a ton of money.
Within the first few minutes of talking with Sandy I knew we were a good match. She was suggesting ideas and designs that made sense. Her suggestions were practical and beautiful. What I loved about her right away is that she was really listening to what I was saying and had constructive ways to improve our family space. She recognized that I had three small children and we had to be able to move about in our space and enjoy our home!
Steve and I had been considering moving for about a year before I met Sandy. Her designs were so wonderful that we did not want to leave our beautifully re-done house! However, I knew that I could get the same effect in our new home, so we decided to move to a new space with more land. Sandy worked on our new home with the same amount of passion and love for design that drew me to her in previous projects. I found it difficult to make a decision without her input. That is how much I value her viewpoint. She has a unique ability to really “see” things that I can’t picture.
I love what we have done in our new space. Even though I feel I have graduated a bit in my ability to pick furniture, color, wallpaper, I still call Sandy to run my ideas through her head. I completely trust her judgment and deeply value her insight through the design process.
Best of all, Sandy truly understands me and my family’s needs. She never tried to create a home that was “perfect” or untouchable. She recognizes and values the fact that we really want to live in our home and use it! Her goal was to create a space that is special and unique for us, but usable and practical in our day to day lives. On top of all of that she is such fun to work with. I truly look forward to our next project together!
