“Amanda Friend's designs transform! Everything she touches turns to beautiful! She took our drab 1950's bathroom to a spa-like retreat complete with walk-in shower, beautiful window covering, the perfect statement-piece mirror and a lovely tile and marble combination that looks modern and in keeping with our home's age all at the same time! Ms. Friend can work with your contractors or provide them, is expert at design and can provide everything from a consultation to a complete renovation. We highly recommend hiring Amanda Friend Design for home design changes that you will love for many years to come.”

“Nicole is absolutely amazing. I can't say enough good things about her and the interior decorating services that she provided for us. Nicole originally helped us in a historic home in Jacksonville. She was incredible at learning what we wanted, matching the neighborhood feel, and making the house feel just right. We then unexpectedly moved to the beach!! Nicole worked with us to repurpose our old furniture, adapt it to our new house style and make the PERFECT house sitting. We love, love, love the work that Nicole did for us. We're so grateful.”

“We found Nile by searching the ASID.org website seeking a well-regarded interior designer. We were attracted to many of Nile’s designs on his website, and hired him after interviewing several other designers. He stood out from other designers in the ideas he could offer in only our first meeting. We had very little time to devote to designing our home yet had high expectations, and entrusted Nile to help bring out our taste. The job involved designing and furnishing our main floor rooms including family room, living room, dining room, and foyer in a large open concept house. Nile did a fantastic job, offering us choices that reflected our style, and providing his expertise on how to bring our eclectic preferences to life. He struck the right balance in advising us when our ideas may or may not work out, providing lessons learned from his experience and those of his peers, and effectively communicating with us throughout the process, from start to finish. He is a consummate professional who repeatedly demonstrated why he earned our complete trust through his skill and ability to produce incredible results while effectively managing our interactions. Nile helped change our re-sale house into a beautiful home that reflects us and makes us both proud and happy to come home to every night.”

“We hired McGrath Designs to redesign our living room. The room was very difficult to decorate because of numerous doors and windows, additionally the furnishings we had were outdated and bland. Krista brought back a plan that made the room work by moving 2 existing windows and adding a third thus giving the room a symmetry it didn't have before. Krista worked with us throughout the selections of rugs, chairs, sofa, tables and window treatments. For us, we know what we like but have trouble with the vision of pulling it all together and having it work! Krista has a very good eye for what works and listened to what we wanted and brought back a good selection of options in every category. We love how our room came out and highly recommend McGrath designs to anyone in need of an interior designer.”

“Kat has always given us written estimates that were accurate when job was completed. Her ideas are up to date and different. Good eye for symetry and patterns. Have not been disappointed yet. Our work is still in progress because we always find another project.”

“I have retained Karen Cronin on three significant projects. The most recent project was the move from my primary residence(4000 ft.² plus home) in South Jersey into my current residence (large two bedroom apartment at the Ritz residences in Philadelphia Pennsylvania). I am a divorced father of two. I own and run my own business. I work long hours and travel extensively. Bottom line-in a move like this I needed a tremendous amount of help, and based on my previous experience with Karen I had every confidence in her abilities. She exceeded my expectations. On the front end of the move Karen took responsibility to vet and retain movers. She supervised and coordinated the packing of my home, and the move. A stone the size of the home and the amount of furnishings very little was used in my new residence, which required that belongings and furnishings be donated or stored. Karen handled all of this. She was on site for the move out of my South Jersey residence, and coordinated with the building Philadelphia to handle the move-in. She had everything planned well in advance and it ran like clockwork. Because I was moving into a totally different style and size residence, Karen needed to completely design, furnish and accessorize my new residence. This required her to spend considerable time in advance designing, measuring and providing the options based upon my taste and pricing parameters. This move encompassed everything from furniture, to art, lighting, kitchen appliances, etc. Karen furnished and designed for the foyer, living room, dining room, family room and bedrooms. Karen coordinated with the vendors and my building to make arrangements for all deliveries and installation. She handled placement and timing of art. She worked with selected and vetted multiple vendors, including the movers, electricians, plumbers and carpenters. She has exemplary communication skills. We communicated multiple times daily. Based on our extensive experience together my trust in her judgment is absolute-yet, she took no steps without authority. I have absolutely no reservations about giving Karen complete access. She is completely trustworthy I have no reservations about recommending Karen Cronin. I can assure you I will be hiring her again. Completely dependable, the ultimate professional. Punctual. And, she has great taste. My place looks awesome. Constantly receive compliments. Can't go wrong with Karen Cronin!!! I would have no problem speaking with anyone considering Karen.”

“Emily was really great. She helped us identify issues that we had not considered. She was able to give great advice without pushing us to accept design changes that other designers suggested. If you have ever worked with a designer in the past and felt intimidated then you need to talk to Emily. She has great ideas without taking over the project.”

“Alisha is top notch. Very personable and I always felt she was listening to me and what I wanted for my home. She took my ideas and turned them into reality. I had a beach feel going but wanted modern as well. She took all my crazy ideas and somehow made the perfect plan. I have 3 little boys as well who all wanted different themes for their rooms and she nailed it. It was perfect. Thank you for making our new house into a home that I can enjoy for years to come. Thank you”
