Space Planning Services in Cherry Hill Mall, NJ

“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.”

“Within minutes of entering our new home for our initial consultation, Amy was able to navigate through our pile of collected treasures, gain a clear understanding of our style, and find a color scheme that we absolutely love. We hired her to design our living room and it is now our most favorite place to spend time in our home. She is quick to respond to any questions or concerns and has been a pleasure to work with. We will be hiring her again to help us with our master bathroom renovation.”

“Nicole first helped us select paint colors...she pulled a color out of a set of chairs for our family room walls...and all we get are compliments! Then she did the most fabulous window treatments for all our rooms....master bedroom, guest room (a truly unique concept for a circular window), family room, and more. She is the best in the business! Creative, innovative and responsive. She listens and will work with your budget.”

“This husband and wife team are amazing! They have unbelievable talent and are so personable. Benavides Design House turned our unfinished basement into a beautiful space complete with an art room for the kids, spare bedroom, entertainment room, pool table/game room and a wine cellar wall. They did renderings for us ahead of time so that we could really see what our space would look like. They sat down with us and made sure we were comfortable and got to know our style before they made recommendations. They were flexible enough to put up with our last minute change of heart on a few decisions. They were also very responsive to our calls and emails throughout the process. Plus when we first moved to the South Jersey area, we paid almost double the hourly fee for a designer so we consider BDH to be very competitively priced. You can not go wrong with this talented pair!!”

“We were thinking of making some changes to the exterior of our home, but were struggling with trying to visualize different elements, such as brick versus siding versus stone. We really needed someone who could create sample digital designs. A contractor recommended Emily to us. She was so easy to work with, budgeted her time accurately, and helped guide our thought process considering flow and function of the space. She was very organized, and we appreciated how clear and complete her communications were. Her knowledge was also of value as she was able to act as a liaison between us and the contractor, saving us quite a bit of time and effort. We would certainly consider working with Emily in the future.”

“Cathy is an excellent designer and listens to her clients’ needs. I love her ability to share options and views based on her experience. She has a great sense of style and looking at her completed projects, you can see her ability to create beautiful and interesting spaces. She has advised us on our new home build including design options as well as furnishings. We love our new home and decisions that Cathy helped us make, including some fun unexpected furniture choices!”

“Marissa has an eye for style and vibrant fun updates! We were struggling to remodel our basement and stuck in the same rut. She helped us think outside the box and make more bold choices. She also keeps an eye on budget and cost savings. I am so excited to show off our new space. I highly recommend Marissa for all your decorating/design projects. She's a pleasure to work with!”

“I have seen hollys work and met her personally. She is very professional And loves what she does. Her passion shows through her work!”

“Audra Fine at Deconstructed Living helped us furnish and decorate our home in Margate NJ. It was new and had nothing. She was respectful of our tastes and budget. She took our input but didn't let us make mistakes. A few years later we moved our primary home in PA. She worked with all of our furnishings that we wanted to keep while bringing in new items to update our home. Audra is the best. She is a delight to work with.”

“Anderson Design has been helping us with our house for over 13 years. Bonnie understands our style and preferences, and works with us to bring our personalities into the design. She’s done our family room, kitchen, children’s bedrooms, dining room, basement, etc. We don’t do anything without her! We get tons of compliments. Bonnie is a delight to work with.”
