Featured Reviews for Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA

Kelly Scanlon Interior Design
Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 February 2013
“Kelly helped us convert the living space of our generic 1950's rancher into a beautiful space that we love to entertain in and is also very comfortable for our family to enjoy. She has the perfect blend of classic and contemporary, but most importantly, she really listens to her clients and builds a design and aesthetic for each individual client. I definitely hope to work with Kelly again in the future.”
Natalia Avalos Interiors LLC
Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 August 2021
“We worked with Natalia on a major home remodel -- full kitchen and 3 bathrooms. I was a blank slate and while I knew what I didn't like, I didn't have an exact vision of what I wanted. Natalia was invaluable and made what was an overwhelming process, easy and painless. After meeting with us and asking many questions, she had a feel for our style. When it came time to choose tiles, paint colors, countertops, fixtures, she "went shopping" first and then brought us 2 or 3 options from which to choose, and they were spot on. She has a fabulous eye and we absolutely love our kitchen and bathrooms. We continue to work with her on other household projects. Natalia is a true professional, and fun to work with. I can't say enough great things about her, except I'd hire her again and again!”
Sky City Design + Color
Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 February 2013
“I hired this firm for a very unique job which turned out above my expectations. Ms. Adkins is an outstanding consultant and provided me with options that I did not know about which is a much more professional approach than some of the more "off-the-shelf" companies that I had dealt with in the past. The color choices, materials, and craftsmanship gave my home a much more rich, attractive, and unique look than I have seen anywhere else. I highly recommend this firm.”
Nari V Interiors LLC
Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 January 2017
“Nari was fantastic to work with -- even over long distance! She made our cookie-cutter suburban home feel like "ours", even embodying our passions for travel and wine in a family-friendly way. The recommendations were spot on our family loves spending time together in these spaces. We still get compliments on even the basic of individual pieces (like our coffee and side tables!). Thank you so very much for helping our house feel like home. It's completely different than what our neighbors have done and that makes it even better!”
Refined Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 August 2020
“I absolutely loved working with Laura during our house renovation - she helped make our house into our dream home! Laura’s expertise, creativity, and sense of style have been invaluable through the entire design and selection process. She carefully listens to her clients and helps with the whole process from design to the finishing touches. Laura has a wonderful eye for detail and color. She pays close attention to the big picture as well as to every little detail. She was instrumental in every step of our remodel - from helping with the layout, creating the CAD drawings for permits, recommending vetted contractors and vendors with whom she has great relationships, to helping with design ideas and choosing the right materials. We couldn’t be happier with the final results! Laura is truly a talented designer and wonderful to work with. I would highly recommend her for any kind of interior decoration, design, or remodel projects.”

“We have partnered with Lane at Urban Orchard Interiors on numerous projects she has designed for clients. From a custom media cabinet and end tables handcrafted out of reclaimed doug fir, reclaimed teak dressers, to a reclaimed white oak dining room table and bed frame. Lane passionately works with her clients to create beautiful spaces with an emphasis on the use of sustainable materials. Highly recommend!”

“Megan is professional, personable and flexible. She gets to know your taste and budget and works within your constraints, all the while coming up with fantastic ideas that you never would have come up with on your own. She is thorough and thoughtful and offers great choices for your consideration. Megan does not force any aesthetic on you, appreciating your style preferences while giving her expert opinion and advice. We were extremely pleased with Megan's working style and the end results and recommend her wholeheartedly!”
Enotive LLC
Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 June 2018
“Enotive helped us transform our 70s kitchen into an open and airy floor plan. We weren't sure what the best layout for our kitchen, dining, family room space and didn't want to just blindly jump into remodeling without being able to see the area planned out ahead of time. We worked with Jennifer on the project, and she listened to what we wanted in the space and kept our budget in mind. The 3D rendering helped us play with the design and see what we were getting before making any changes. We ended up with a beautifully updated kitchen, very open and bright floor plan. Our favorite element was removing the smaller kitchen window and patio slider to create a large slider that can open up the entire wall. I highly recommend getting Enotive to help you with the design and planning element.”
Influent Home
Interior Designers & Decorators in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 June 2015
“My partner and I engaged with Michael a few months ago because we were unhappy with some of our present furniture, carpets and the overall feel of our condo. We had recently worked with a designer and had a less than stellar experience and result. We interviewed a few designers for this relatively small project and we both liked Michael right away. We explained our vision of "warming up" our condo, which had been decorated a bit more modern that we liked; we had not found it to functional or inviting. We emphasized that we wanted to remain in-budget if possible but were open to suggestions that might bring us a bit over if we felt it was worth it. I have worked with three other designers in the past, and I must say that Michael was by far the most budget conscious. We asked to be billed weekly and for regular, easy to understand accounting, and that is just what he provided. Michael was reliable, patient and professional through the entire process; bills for his time were reasonable and appropriate. Michael has a great eye for color and detail, and he came up with some really great ideas. For example, he suggested that we extend an existing surface in the guest bedroom/office to create an inexpensive work space that is both attractive and functional. He also brought in a plumber and painter who were willing to complete some really small but important jobs for us. Michael has been an absolute pleasure to work with. I will definitely contact him for any future projects I might have and I recommend him without hesitation. Oh and by the way, our home looks great - it's warm, comfortable and inviting. . . just what we wanted!”

What does an interior designer or decorator do?
