Michelle's Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in River Forest.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 April 2013
“We hired Michelle to help us redesign our master bath and are absolutely thrilled with the outcome. We wanted to create a spa like setting complete with a larger shower, luxury whirlpool and other creature comforts that women enjoy. Michelle came up with a stunning design that involved some changes of moving a wall, adding pocket doors and relocating some of the plumbing. Her plan included all the materials to be considered for the project and paint colors. We love the whirlpool that is large enough for two and has these fancy lights that change colors as the pool is on. Her design incorporated the existing master bedroom and she helped us with some ideas there also. Michelle is very creative, full of energy and an absolute joy to work with. There are many great designers in Chicago and she is definitely in that elite group of designers.”

“Highly recommend. We have used Julie's color design consulting regularly over the past several years. In each case she has successfully assisted in determining the right color scheme based on multiple variables. Julie's expertise covers allrange of situationss from just moving in to updating the overall look to preparing a home for sale. Each for these requires someone who understands the goal and can convert that knowledge into the perfect rselections leading to the desired esult. Julie is outstanding at each aspect in the process.”
Queen Bee Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in River Forest.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 March 2014
“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.”
Michelle Glennon Interior Design, Inc
Interior Designers & Decorators in River Forest.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 October 2014
“Michelle was fantastic from the very beginning all the way through the final touches. I recently bought my first condo and had no idea where to start and I had no time to figure it out. After a short initial meeting where Michelle got to know me and my tastes, she took everything and ran with it. I loved every idea she had, every piece she picked out and when it was all said and done, I couldn't be happier. Everyone that comes over now immediately comments on the design of the place and I couldn't be more proud. I owe it all to Michelle!”

“I can't speak highly enough about Phillip Harrison's services! Mark helped us with a home redesign that was more than we could have ever imagined!! His attention to detail, impeccable style, and expectation of quality was a breath of fresh air.

“Leslie helped me from the beginning with paint and carpet selection. She then helped me with the selection and design of window treatments for our kitchen and family room. She is also assisting with accessorizing. I am very happy with her and our project is on going.”
Laura Design Company
Interior Designers & Decorators in River Forest.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 September 2016
“I have hired this company now on two occasions. They continue to exceed my expectations! I highly recommend them on the basis of their follow through, creativity and being under budget both times. That's almost unheard of!”
Dual Concept Design
Interior Designers & Decorators in River Forest.
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.”
Turn Key Designs
Interior Designers & Decorators in River Forest.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 May 2022
“Turn Key was excellent to work with from start to finish! Was in need of a new closet design/build and the big box stores like Lowes and Home Depot didn’t offer nearly anything close to what Turn Key provided me. Both Courtney and Andrew were great from start to finish. They kept me in the loop during every step, whether it was with an email or a personal phone call. They both make you feel like family, and that trust goes a long way in business. I could not be more pleased with how everything turned out! Turn Key knows it’s stuff and they know it well!”
