Bobbi Alderfer/Lifestyle Design

Lifestyle Design helped me make so many decisions on my kitchen addition. We already had our design so Bobbi helped with our colors, faucets, lighting, countertops and MANY other coordinating decisions. It all turned out fabulous, thank you Bobbi!

We hired Lifestyle Design for a full remodel of our main floor, including the kitchen, family room, and living room. Bobbi, the owner, and her team did an incredible job turning our outdated layout into a modern, functional space. One of the standout features was transforming our unused formal dining room into a laundry room and butler's pantry. This not only gave us much-needed storage but also moved the washer and dryer out of the kitchen, making the space far more efficient. The entire project took around nine months in a phased approach as we were still living in the home, and although there were a few quality concerns along the way, Bobbi was always quick to address them and ensure everything met our expectations. The new cabinetry, in particular, turned out beautifully, and the final result was exactly what we hoped for. Communication was a strong point throughout the project. Bobbi was always available when we needed her, and the entire team was professional and respectful. The pricing was competitive compared to other designers we consulted, and we felt that it was fair given the quality of the work. Overall, I would highly recommend Lifestyle Design for anyone looking to renovate their home. They truly transformed our space and made it more functional and beautiful.

Bobbi, Kate and the rest of the team have been phenomenal helping us with 2 remodel projects over the past 3 years. We first used Lifestyle Design to remodel a basement bath and upstairs hall bath, and were so pleased 2 years later we had them update our kitchen. We have been very impressed with how they are able to take our design ideas and add suggestions so that the space truly reflects our vision. Bobbi is great at responding if we have a question and keeping us informed of the ongoing schedule. We plan to use Lifestyle Design again next year to remodel our master bath!

We used Lifestyle Design for some major paint/decor/bathroom updating in our home. They helped us with prioritizing and budgeting as to make the most of our updates while staying within a reasonable budget. They helped us pick out fabrics, paint colors, fixtures and everything we needed. They coordinated all aspects of the project from start to finish, and followed up with all contractors on a timely basis. We updated paint/wallpaper, trim, doors, cabinets, light fixtures, window treatments, fireplace brick finish, floor tile, new bathroom fixtures, countertops, sinks, shower, etc. We love how everything turned out and would definitely recommend Lifestyle Design. Big thanks to Kelly and Bobbi for making this project run so smoothly.

We reached out to Lifestyle Design to rethink our primary bath. Kelly helped us reimagine the space by removing a wall that was blocking additional natural light. In coordination with Royal Builders, they presented us with a variety of options and cost-saving ideas, including reusing a vanity from a local showroom. The tile design was one-of-a-kind and included all of the unique ideas we discussed. Our new bathroom is so bright and cheerful that even our dogs love spending time in it!

Lifestyle Design is outstanding! They do everything, and in the most professional, tasteful, complete and high quality manner. They move from working with the client on design through sourcing products, through any remodeling undertaken, through set-up, and through completion of every last detail of a project. Owner Bobbi Alderfer and her amazing team have a wonderful sense of design, and apply it in a way that is responsive to and respectful of the client’s lifestyle, desires, taste and budget. They listen, and they truly understand that the finished work product must be what the client wants and will love. Lifestyle Design has done two projects for us, both of which involved renovations. Lifestyle not only planned the decor and renovations with us, but then contracted out and oversaw every aspect of the work, using the retinue of very high quality tradespeople with whom they have worked for years. Lifestyle promised us the work would be done within very specific and tight windows, and they pulled out all stops to make this happen and with beautiful results. On top of everything else, Bobbi and Karla and each of the Lifestyle Design team are a pleasure to work with, from all standpoints.

We contacted Lifestyle Design when we decided to remodel our master bathroom. Bobbi took our vision and made it a reality. From demolition to the final touches, Bobbi coordinated every aspect of the project. When the pandemic made it challenging to obtain some of the tile we selected, Bobbi and her team worked their magic and the result was even better than expected. We’re very pleased with our beautiful new bathroom.

I initially contacted Bobbi after buying a home that was on a wonderful wooded lot and had interesting angles and an overall flow that I was looking for. However, the main style of the house--including some interior architectural features--was not aligned at all with my aesthetic. Bobbi and her team at Lifestyle Design had to not only reimagine the main areas of the house, but had to find solutions to be able to remove unwanted features and work around those angles I loved. Bobbi never gave up--she was relentless at finding a solution for every challenge. Even when faced with a disaster I created on my own, Bobbi stepped in and fixed everything. I also appreciated that she would push me in directions that I may not have had the confidence to go in on my own. Everything has turned out beautifully. I continue to work with Bobbi on additional areas of the house and I consider her not only a renovation partner but a friend.

Bobbi and her team at Lifestyle Design have been incredibly helpful with our major kitchen/family room remodel project! The project included removing several walls and adding a new entryway and walk-in pantry in our 1884 farmhouse. Their assistance and insight helped us achieve our vision and keep us in budget. From choosing cabinet styles, flooring, back splash tiles, counter tops, light fixtures, paint colors, and furnishings, their expertise allowed us to create our dream kitchen and family room! We highly recommend Bobbi and her crew when looking to remodel any part of your home! They make the many difficult choices so easy and your house a place to call home!

We worked with Bobbi for design services in updating our kitchen (we had already selected A & M Kitchen and Bath for the execution). I am not a person who can visualize what the finished product would look like. Bobbi was instrumental in creating a a kitchen that we love. She also created a solution when we wanted to replace an old bar behind a folding door in our family room. She brought lighting solutions to both the kitchen and family rooms. Bobbi did have us enlarge the door openings to the kitchen which has made a large difference in the feel of opening up the areas. She recommended wood floors in the foyer and kitchen. Although hesitant I listened to her and am so very glad I did. I love having the wood floors. Bobbi is very easy to work with and was always available. I would work with her and her team again with confidence that the finished product would be beautifully done.

We worked with lifestyle design when purchasing a new (to us) home. We ended up doing a ton of work--flooring, painting, completely reworking the master bedroom/closet and the living room. They were professional and responsive. The BEST part is that they didn't push their design aesthetic on us. They worked with our vision and tastes to turn our home into a true oasis, which we really appreciated during the COVID lock down.

Bobbi and Kelly came to my rescue when I was drowning in kitchen remodeling decisions. They had a very calming effect and gave me money saving ideas. What they presented as possibilities were things I would never have thought of on my own but absolutely love. They were a delight to work with and will be who I call for any design needs in the future.

I found Bobbi on house and we worked so well together I not only found a wonderful designer but a friend. She also has a great team working for her. Had lighting, furnishing, painting, and designing done.

We are so happy with how our project turned out! We wanted to update our home from traditional to transitional, which included refinishing flooring, updating the stairway, painting trim, updating a powder room, new window treatments and new lighting. We mainly worked with Lori and Kelly. They did a wonderful job picking out the right pieces, fabrics and colors to match our style which made decision making so easy. This was the first step into making our house feel more like our home. We look forward to our next project and will definitely use Lifestyle Design again!

Look no further—Lifestyle Designs creates magic using color, texture, and their special touch. Bobbi and her assistants, interns, and staff utilize their boundless creative energy, versatility, and unpretentious attitudes to bring new life our furnishings and interiors…………. We sought a local designer who would factor in our lifestyle and space to refresh our home interior using local artisans. Bobbi and her team at Lifestyle Design listened and implemented our suggestions and to create timeless, livable rooms suited to our tastes. The depth and quality of her vendor contacts and local artisans is impressive. Everyone is polite, professional, and perform exquisite work. The artisan that built our new library and entertainment center used local alder wood and touches only a true craftsman could accomplish. If Bobbi isn’t happy with any of the work she or Lori will have it corrected until everyone is completely satisfied. We are delighted with all of the updates to our first floor. Lifestyle Design went above and beyond to make the work complete and acceptable for us. Bobbi and her team have no compunction about shopping at local stores for rugs and accessories that reflects her budget conscious philosophy. She has the ability to find solutions for difficult problems. We put our complete trust in Bobbi’s vision and judgment. For that reason, we have petitioned Lifesytle Design to begin the redesign our upstairs spaces to include the master bedroom, bath and closet, updating our staircase, installing wood floors, and painting. We can’t wait to see what they conjure up!

Awesome! She really transformed our home and we love all of it. She is very easy to work with and professional.

I would highly recommend Lifestyle Design! We wanted to update our main living area of the house and with so many rooms that would be impacted for a cohesive look, we did not quite know where to start. Bobbi asked great questions about our goals for the space, our style likes/dislikes, and very quickly set up a design concept that she brought to life over a few months. This included new wood flooring, refinished cabinets, new lighting, painting, furniture and window treatments. We are amazed at how well it all turned out and it is exactly what we hoped for. Bobbi did a wonderful job on our renovation and was a joy to work with!

I have used Lifestyle Design for a few projects. I had designer Lori come in late to a kitchen remodel. She helped put the finishing touches on backsplash/countertop/paint selection. Her suggestions and creative ideas were what took this kitchen redo to the beautiful design I had hoped for...and could not get there on my own. She also helped me with our family room update. Her ideas made this room cozy, updated, and very pretty!

After going through an extensive one year project with Lifestyle Design there are many positives that can be said about their steady, skilled guidance and professionalism. As we mentally retrace the projects of electrical, carpentry, plumbing, flooring etc., we note that it was impossible for us to personally stay on top of each and every aspect of what was happening around us. We soon realized that our team @ Lifestyle Design would insure that we would be satisfied and each and every concern would be immediately and patiently explained and addressed. We felt with confidence throughout the project that our best interests were foremost. Thank you, Lifestyle Design

I would highly recommend Lifestyle Design. I worked with Lori and Kelly on my interior design project. They were extremely professional, organized, punctual, and outstanding to work with on all fronts. They really took the time to get to know me and my likes, dislikes, and sense of design. From day one, they could articulate a clear vision of what needed to be done to create a cohesive look throughout my first floor that was reflective of my eclectic style and love for ethnographic art. They have an incredible eye for design, color, and balance. The project involved painting, new lighting, rearrangement of furniture and an art installation. The results were outstanding! I love my “new” home.

We worked with Bobbi on an inside/outside update of our home. Our update included raising a ceiling, removing walls and a closet, adding new flooring, updating the outside front entrance of our home and of course the fun part… selecting new furniture and accessories. All contractors used in our project were very professional and skillful. Bobbi was able to realize what we wanted to do to our home and to make it happen! We felt that our happiness and satisfaction was always a main concern. Working with Lifestyle Designs has been a wonderful experience for us.

We completely renovated a small ranch to “right-size” our needs. Lifestyle Design made this big project progress smoothly and as quickly as possible. They oversaw demolition of walls, kitchen and fireplace design and installation, shopping for tile, lighting, floor covering and window treatments with expertise that helped us keep our calm throughout the project. The subs the used were excellent. We were completely satisfied with the outcome and are enjoying our new home.

We love the new space in our living room and dining room! Bobbi had a vision and the result is wonderful. We appreciated Bobbi's professionalism ,and her ability to listen to and work with our ideas.

I have been consistently impressed with Bobbi's thorough and creative reimagining of both my master bath and kitchen spaces. Both she and Lori listen to the customer and represent my concepts and theirs into a happy and refreshed scenario. Their honesty and integrity is without question both through pricing and delivery of the room concept. They are painstakingly patient through many iterations to make sure a budget is being respected as well as the delivery of a very creative design. I could not recommend Bobbi and Lori more enthusiastically!

I now have a beautiful bathroom retreat, thanks to Bobbi and Lori. It is just what I was dreaming of.

Bobbi and Lori are simply the best! They are professional, knowledgeable, work above and beyond what is expected and watch your budget better than the client! I miss their visits to my home.

Great eye for design and detail! The fabric and design of my drapes absolutely transformed my room. And the service is absolutely wonderful. I was able to complete several projects without ever leaving the house. Installation was a breeze, and they stand by their work.

Bobbi and Lori are the best this industry has to offer. They are so knowledgeable and truly understand a customers needs. I would recommend them to anyone interested in hiring a designer for thier home.

I have worked with Bobbi for 8 years – on projects ranging from space planning when we moved from a much larger home to a smaller one to the overall kitchen design for our historic arts and crafts home. She is able to interpret/decipher what I am looking for – design, color, fabric, framing, window treatments and everything in between – which makes the decision-making process effortless. She is also sensitive to budgetary concerns which is something not all designers respect. Most importantly, she is a delight to work with making the design process even more rewarding.

Bobbi is terrific! She took our ideas and thoughts and came up with ideas that we loved! From granite selections, to window treatments, to furniture, to flooring, she made the process easy and enjoyable. Bobbi considered our style and budget. She was up on the latest and greatest in home design. We love our "new" house thanks to Bobbi!

I have known Bobbi for years and she is a consummate professional. I have complete confidence in her to the point that I have engaged her to design and oversee two projects in my home while I have been on vacation. She is currently designing and overseeing the installation of my new kitchen while I plan to be out of town. Bobbi is conscientious about appointments, remaining within budget and insuring that each project stage takes place on time. I am hopeful that she will assist in designing the master bathroom next!!!

Bobbi is a true professional at her craft. She focuses on the clients desires/needs on many levels from basic color preferences, whole house concepts and themes to budgetary considerations. I always felt that she connected with my tastes and understood my vision, which was oftentimes blurry. Bobbi has a tremendous capacity to help a home owner narrow their focus to hit the mark...and is not only patient, but she is a polite, and caring person. I have had her assist me with several projects ranging from flooring to a banquette in my kitchen...she is fabulous!
