Playroom Design Services in Indiana County, PA

“Julie Graf was the designer for a full remodel of the kitchen in an older home we purchased. We are serious about food and cooking, so the kitchen had to be highly functional; in addition, we are serious about preserving the "feel" of our Victorian-era house, so the design had to take that into consideration. Julie understood those needs and created a design that perfectly blended functionality and beauty while remaining true to the overall feel of the house. She spent a good deal of time talking to us to get a deep understanding of what we wanted, consulted with us frequently to make sure we were all on the same page, and oversaw the work to make sure it was done right. Her sense of color and form helped make our kitchen virtually a showplace. People walking into the room for the first time often say things like "I want this kitchen!" The room is oddly shaped, but she created ample storage space, ample counter space, and extensive pantry-space, while maintaining a sense of spaciousness and allowing easy traffic flow. She combines brilliant technical knowledge, the ability to talk to and understand her clients, and a great aesthetic sense--exactly what you would want in a designer.”

“Elise designed a most exquisite bathroom for my husband and me. She was very concerned about accommodating our desires of taste for style and colors and also using the space wisely. We have more storage space, the bathroom design makes it so comfortable to use, and of course, it looks stunning. She found and collected all of the decorative materials for the trim. And she designed a special mirror which turned out to be the most beautiful focal point. She connects daily with the builder to be certain of the progress and everything going to plan. We couldn't be happier with our master bathroom.”

“She remodeled a room for us and did a beautiful job, we were thrilled with the outcome. She made sure all of the furniture and rugs met her high standard. We will definitely plan to have her do more work for us.”

“We did an extensive three-story addition consisting of master bath, great room, and bar/ wine cellar with the guidance of Marcy Wilson. With Marcy's knowledge she provided us with numerous choices and products which resulted in a "magazine picture" result. She was very accommodating throughout the process. We highly recommend her. ~Greg and Sandy”

“I own a 1920's Gardener's cottage that was once part of a country estate, run down and falling apart at the seams, unlived in for many years. After making the structural repairs, I needed someone to come in and take over the project, creating what I hoped would become a magical guest hideaway. I had seen several homes that Kathleen Schippers had renovated and I fell in love with her work. She has a wonderful sense of space and color, creating rooms that invite you in. I wanted someone who could make the space practical and feel lived in, while at the same time creating an excitement and beauty for my family and guests. Kathleen did it all! The project was finished in a timely manner and on budget. My expectations were exceeded and now everyone who walks into the cottage is absolutely wowed. She has blended the old with the new, and though it retains all the charm of the 1920's design, it softly brings in some contemporary elements as well. As soon as you walk in the front door, you feel as though you have entered into this beautiful space, but you totally feel at home. Best of all, Kathleen has a down to earth style that makes you feel so comfortable when you're working together. She listens and incorporates what you are hoping to create into her method of design, and you feel very much a part of all the planning and decisions. Kathleen made doing this project fun, and that in itself is a testimony to her work.”
