Kitchen Design Services in Gales Ferry, CT

“We were referred to Jennifer Michael Design by our builder, knowing she came highly recommended. In the throes of construction, my husband and I could not have had more different tastes or hopes for our new home. Hands down, working with Jennifer was the one of the best decisions we ever made. She was able to listen attentively to both of us and translate the ideas into gorgeous and thoughtful designs. Her assistance with visual imagery, sourcing of options, and guidance throughout the design process was more than we could have hoped for. The result of her help is a home that we are proud to call ours. She combined the aesthetic that we were looking for with the function that a family needs for everyday life, working closely not only with us, but with our builder to insure even the smallest details were perfect. She has been and continues to be a patient and knowledgeable resource for any and all questions that come up even now as we settle into our home. We have happily referred Jennifer to friends considering home renovations, and would recommend her talents and expertise to anyone looking to beautify their home.”

“Working with Jessica was an amazing experience. She has incredible taste level and was able to incorporate her vision and my sense of style together. I never felt pushed into anything. The results are gorgeous! Everyone who walks into my home says 'wow this place is so pretty!'”

“Christie is knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to work with. She helped me choose paint colors, fabrics, sofas, coffee tables, lamps and more for my mid-century modern home. I wanted to keep it simple, but warm and colorful. Christie struck just the right chord. She also introduced me to sources for furnishings that I would not have known about on my own and saved me from costly mistakes and do-overs. If you can find the right designer, your home will come together more easily. I feel so lucky to have found Christie.”

“Our experience with Caryn Paradis was excellent from start to finish. We had an unfinished basement that we wanted to finish and didn't know where to begin. Caryn talked with us in detail about how we wanted to use our basement and then came up with plans that included all of our needs as well as ideas that we hadn't even considered but should have. She was able to design a space that incorporated areas for everyone in our family, including our young son--even a stage that could be pulled apart for use as couches when he becomes a teenager! Because we live in separate states, Caryn was able to do much of the work remotely with minimal visits to our home to take measurements, etc. She had finish samples sent directly to us quickly and walked us through the decision making process. She designed specific requests, such as a fireplace for my husband and a guest room/office area. Caryn paid attention not only to the aesthetics of the job, but also the practicalities, such as outlet placement and HVAC. She also included amenities such as a well-placed dorm fridge which will come in handy when our son is old enough to use the space as a hang-out with friends. All in all, the job was smooth, well-designed and surprisingly painless. Caryn listened to our needs and then exceeded them. We would recommend her without reservation.”

“Highly recommend the services of Watch Hill Designs. Sherry Pierce, the owner, took the time to understand my vision and designed a space that far exceeded my expectations. I appreciated that she was always mindful of my budget and would offer money saving alternatives. Sherry is an energetic, enthusiastic and talented designer, who made the process of decorating stress free and enjoyable.”

“Marie of Rie & Co. was such a great help to us! She helped us make a range of color and design decisions as we updated our back deck and front entryway. She was super responsive, collaborative, and quick to share back ideas and photos to help us visualize our options.”

“Over the past 22 years Kim and I have worked together on many projects. Besides being very talented, she is professional, commited and loyal to her clients and brings a sense of ease that makes her clients feel relaxed. As her fabrication workroom I can say that her attention to detail and knowledge of color and pattern makes her projects stand out. Kim is a designer that I choose to pass on to my clients again and again.”

“I've worked with Kristen on several design projects in my home and she consistently over-delivers on offering great advice and creative solutions. Kristen always listens to ensure she understands what I'm trying to achieve, then provides the right balance of guidance and direction to find the right solution for each individual challenge. She is extremely responsive, accurate and we always have a good time. Kristen delivers great customer service as well. Even if I don't have an "active" project in the works, she will share ideas and inspiration on a regular basis. I always love seeing her emails pop up in my inbox! I highly recommend Kristen!!”

“Kimberly of Brick and Beam Studio was wonderful to work with! She really listens and does a great deal of background work to understand your vision, your budget, and what you need for your lifestyle. She's flexible and willing to work with you the whole way through. I really believe she went above and beyond for us (we were rather indecisive!) I'll never work with any other designer and we plan to hire Kimberly again when it's time to update our second floor. I highly recommend Brick and Beam Studio - you won't be disappointed!”

“I have had the delightful pleasure of working with Cindy Kramer on the interior design of our cottage in Weekapaug, RI. Cindy was inspired by our location! Her choice of colors - and overall design was very sophisticated while keeping the connection to our coastal environment. Given the realities of a large family enjoying the summertime beach lifestyle, Cindy was always respectful of our needs. We blended vintage finds and estate sale antiques with a mix of blues, whites and sandy tones throughout. Cindy updated our old and tired kitchen, replaced old tile with hardwood floors, chose fabulous sofas and rugs, created custom designs for our pillows, diningroom window panels and livingroom shades. The result is a perfect blend of beauty, coast and care-free! I love spending time in this cottage. Every time I walk in the door, I breathe in calm. I have Cindy to thank for all of this, and highly recommend her for your interior design project. Enjoy!” — Dorothy Reiser, Weekapaug, RI / Mystic, CT”
