Leah Bolger Design
Interior Designers & Decorators in Chicago.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 December 2022
“I have worked with Leah for many years and she is always available for my design projects. She is intuitive and able to translate my vague design ideas into lovely, warm and inviting space.s Leah is detail oriented and will follow through fully with any request. I so appreciate that Leah is happy to provide both high end and less expensive choices. She happily mixes what I already own with the items purchased through her. I also dearly love that she is willing to give her opinion and does so very gently. I would definitely use her again.”

“I have worked with Laura since we bought our house 8 years ago. She has done an amazing job at helping us decorate to our tastes -- but at least 10x better than we could have done on our own. She's helped us understand the space, what furniture will fit in it, the colors that will work best, etc. I think she's actually saved us money because every choice is well thought out -- we do not have to later discard items that do not fit or that do not coordinate well. Laura is very efficient and professional. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

His attention to detail, impeccable style, and expectation of quality was a breath of fresh air. He listened to all of our needs and desires and turned our well-loved house, into a perfectly styled and incredible home.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 August 2018
“Dual Concept Design has been a pleasure to work with. We have done number of projects with them and they are very professional team to work with. Our most recent work was with Paulina Cervantes who came to us with a very clear vision as to the design, color and concept she was looking for. Seeing the rugs, they chose, in the completed space was outstanding. Congratulations with your completed design.”
Esslinger Design Company
Interior Designers & Decorators in Chicago.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 January 2013
“Chad was great to work with! After 8 years with a large empty stairwell wall I was so excited to work with Chad to design a picture wall. He really listened to what I was looking for and made it a reality. I truly LOVE my picture wall and so many people love it when they walk in my house. I used to see this type of wall in magazines only and love that one is in my house telling my families story.”
Gemma Parker Design, LLC
Interior Designers & Decorators in Chicago.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 August 2015
“We had the pleasure of working with Gemma to update our family room and kitchen. The results are outstanding! Gemma's incredible eye for design and extremely professional working style made the project a pleasure from start to finish. Gemma has an excellent eye for detail and architecture. She took my many inspiration photos and created new spaces that feel as though they've always been in our home. She thought of every last detail, so the spaces feel truly finished. Gemma is a great communicator and there were no surprises. She was clear about what our budget would permit, and was creative about making it work. She has excellent taste and has clear opinions, which helped me make good decisions. Gemma has outstanding resources in Chicago and long working relationships with those vendors -- it was clear how much they trust and respect her taste. From furniture to artwork to window treatments to accessories, she can make anything happen. We are thrilled with the outcome and would absolutely work with her again. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone.”
Wendy Nobriga, ASID
Interior Designers & Decorators in Chicago.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 January 2016
“I used Wendy to help me pick out colors, tiles, etc. when I did a complete renovation of my condo 2 years ago. She was prompt, professional and we were both on the same page. She came to my house for the initial consultation. Then she came back with the samples and told me exactly the price and where to get everything. After everything was done, she drew out 3 different layouts so that I knew where to put my furniture, since that isn’t my specialty. She measured all of my furniture and mapped it out as well as gave me a couple suggestions to add a couple things. Then as one last thing, I hired Wendy to come help me hang my pictures. Some were by themselves and some were in clusters of up to 15 pictures. Everything came out beautiful. I highly recommend Wendy. She did a great job and i could never had done it by myself. I first found her on Angie’s List.”
Garrett Mitchell Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in Chicago.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 August 2013
“Jacquie is an exceptional designer with a fantastic eye!! She is able to help with a small design project (such as giving a room a "facelift") or she can manage a large construction project from start to finish. Jacquie is great at understanding a person or company's own style, rather than imposing her own style upon them. I have worked with Jacquie on multiple corporate projects as well as personal projects, and have referred her to multiple friends and relatives. I can't say enough great things about Jacquie's work, plus she's a great lady to boot!! Highly recommended!!”
