Sustainable Design Professionals in Germantown.

“Haus Interior Design is amazing! Remodeling is a stressful process but Kirsten Kaplan kept us sane! Not only does she have an amazing eye for design detail, but she worked extremely well with our subcontractors making sure our remodel timeline and expectations were met. We did a full kitchen renovation and Kirsten was instrumental in helping us choose everything from the hardwood floors to the cabinet hardware. Not only was she able to find us some amazing grasscloth for a fabulous focal wall, she knew the right people to call for a flawless install. The result is one amazing kitchen!”

“I am so thrilled that I had the opportunity to work with Erica! Erica is a consummate professional who guided me through the renovation and redecoration of the main floor of my home. My trust in her is what kept me sane! She has impeccable taste and always managed to find options that fit my budget. My husband and I could not be happier with the result! I would highly recommend Erica for any interior design project. She is a pleasure to work with and is very talented.”

“During a transition time between full time work and future retirement, Carl assisted me in selecting the perfect fabrics and furniture for two very different styles of living - from Washington, DC to the Arizona desert. We began our work in the winter of 2015 and it will continue through the completion of my home in January 2017 and I am sure beyond. Carl's attention to detail, listening skills, and professionalism have made our work fun and stress free. Thank you, Carl!”

“Where to begin with my comments about Cathleen Curtin, the positive side, or the negative… well, that’s easy! There is no negative, so here are the positives!! Having scaled down a good bit from a larger home, and now residing in my interesting apartment in Old Town, Alexandria, I needed to make improvements and changes that would make this small place my haven. It began with getting bids on a bathroom renovation. Having contacted other architectural services and builders in the area that I knew, I found that the recommendations (and the pricing) were all over the place, and I really couldn’t tell what they were going to do. I also felt that they were not listening to me regarding the need to connect the bedroom space and my master bathroom. From the minute I ran this idea by Cathleen, she “got me” and she listened to me and she responded quickly. Within a couple days of our first meeting, she was back to me with a clear and concise overview and pricing. I was impressed with her level of detail, as well as her efficiency. And, this impression never changed thru out what became a much bigger project. Where the others all were going to expand my bathroom and take away space from my bedroom, Cathleen Curtin was able to give me all that I wanted, AND MORE, in the same footprint – saving money, time and probably a lot of unknown issues in this old building. Her creative use of space and layout resulted in a bathroom that I absolutely love, and others marvel at. Once deciding to work with Ms. Curtin, I realized that I felt safe and comfortable to do more of what really needed to be done to my living space. She gave me that comfort. Having had some experience with such projects in the past, it was knowing that she was not only the Architect, but also the Project Manager, that gave me the confidence to take this on. Always available for questions, and always quick to find solutions to issues as they came along, she drove this project hard and fast, and with a fabulous outcome. The project included not only the master bathroom, but a new laundry room, leveling the floors in my bedroom, insulation where there was none, built in cabinetry that eliminated the need for furniture in the bedroom, re-doing of floors, adding hardwood floors where they did not exist, brilliant storage cabinets, new lighting thru out, a life changing gas fireplace, creative kitchen solutions that make me love cooking again, a very special powder room, and so much more. I am thrilled in my new space – and enjoy it more than I ever dreamed possible. Cathleen was a joy to work with, a consummate professional, a willing ear, a great production manager, and attended to each and every detail of the project. On site every day, often several times, staying ahead of all contractors with selections and materials, and kept me informed with clear and consistent communication. Running a busy enterprise, I needed this style of professional oversight, and feel that not only did she give me a wonderful new home to enjoy, she gave me great service and great value in a time that we often do not get what we expect. With Cathleen, I got more than I ever expected!”

“Susan Feffer a has a special talent with interior decorating. I would recommend her to my family and dearest friends. She has transformed two rooms in my home that I not only love, but find myself wanting to go spend most of my days enjoying! Susan has a clean colorful flare that my whole family has come to love!! I will continue to work with Susan on the other rooms in our home that could benefit her fabulous touch! She is a true authentic stylist that is truly talented and a joy to work with on our home in Kensington, Maryland.”

“Sheryl understands what is needed and how to get it done! She is the ultimate professional who appreciates the importance of detail. I cannot recommend her work enough!”

“Barbara is a spectacular designer with capabilities for many types of property, from classic and historic to modern and contemporary. I use her for all of my product types from the $500,000 price point to north of 3 million”

“Maura is so naturally talented. Her sense of style and flexibility make her one of a kind. Her design expertise is unmatched and the experience is comfortable and easy. She genuinely enjoys the results as much her clients do!”

“We moved into our home and needed to design and paint almost every room. I work full time and my husband has no interest in these decisions. This just added to my already too long "To do" list. Carol was great! She knew I was overwhelmed and sat down with me to understand my tastes and what I wanted to do. She did not rush me but gently kept me moving forward. She transformed my bland home into a home I love. A home with beautiful colors, wonderful furniture and fixtures. One that I love to spend time in and entertain in. She really was my therapist!”

“Turning the kitchen you have in to the kitchen of your dreams requires a tremendous investment of your family's time, money, and resources. It can be filled with headache, heartache, and backaches as the whole process moves along. Thanks to Cindy and the team at Grossmueller's Design, that process was accomplished with ease. We now have the kitchen of our dreams, just as we envisioned it, and it wouldn't have happened without Cindy's steady hand guiding the way. From concept to design, demolition to build out, final paint to final throw pillow, it was a delight working with Grossmueller's. Her creative insights and fresh ideas helped make our concept a much stronger design. She worked great with the whole team, answered our questions honestly, and was accessible and available from start to finish. 6 months after completion, the kitchen isn't just part of our home, it's part of our family. It works with us, and for us, and each morning when I turn on the lights, I still am amazed at how great it looks. It's a pleasure to give Grossmueller's Design our highest recommendation.”
