### Featured Review

**★★★★★ — Nina Verma, May 2023**

> We are so lucky we found Lily. Working with Lily has been overall nothing short of an exceptional experience. We decided to do a large home project- we wanted to redo the deck and our basement. We knew this wasn't going to be easy. Such projects always go over budget and there are always arguments with contractors and vendors. We wanted to extend our deck and make the basement comfortable. We were not expecting this to be miraculous.
> But that is what  Lily delivered. She incorporated a slide on our deck for our children. She designed a gorgeous deck that would allow the walk-out basement to have tons of light. She designed a basement that could comfortably house our entire family. All this and under budget.
> She took the time to understand what we wanted and she exceeded expectation.
> Lily's level of service is excellent. She will text back always and stop by often to check on the work. She will work with you to make sure that you are happy.
> We have enjoyed every step of this project. Her vendors are carefully selected and always competitive. I am amazed by her talent and eye for design.
> We whole heartedly recommend Lily Z Designs.

**★★★★★ — Colleen Brown, May 2026**

> It was an absolute pleasure to work with Lily. She listened well, and totally understood our aesthetic. She is brilliant at harmonizing whimsy and practicality. She provided optionality, mapped out against our budget and let us choose where to prioritize spend and supported us in evaluating trade offs.  She communicated well throughout the process, and her team was great. She made things easy and fun. Our home finally feels personalized.

**★★★★★ — Condominium Lobby Renovation, April 2026**

> Working with Lily on our condo lobby renovation has been an exceptional experience.  As a General Manager overseeing a complex project with many moving parts, it was invaluable to have a designer who not only brings creative vision, but also operates with a high level of professionalism, organization, and reliability.
>
> Lily truly distinguishes herself through her ability to listen.  She took the time to understand our goals, constraints, and the unique character of our property, and translated that into a design that feels both elevated and deeply intentional.  Her artistic perspective is evident in every detail - what she delivers is not just a design, but a thoughtfully curated, custom experience.
>
> One of Lily’s greatest strengths is her network.  She has built trusted relationships with architects, contractors, and vendors, which streamlined coordination and ensured we were working with high-quality professionals at every stage.  This made a significant difference in both efficiency and overall project confidence.
>
> We also greatly appreciated her guidance when navigating budget considerations.  Lily was proactive in presenting thoughtful alternatives that preserved the integrity of the design without compromising on quality or aesthetic.  We found that balance - between creativity and practicality - to be rare and incredibly valuable.
>
> Throughout the process, Lily remained patient, responsive, and solutions-oriented, even when faced with challenges.  She consistently went above and beyond to keep the project moving forward while maintaining a collaborative and positive working relationship.  That's no small feat.
>
> Simply put, Lily is a true partner.  She balances the business side of a project with a genuine passion and eye for beautiful, custom design.  We feel incredibly fortunate to have worked with her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking a designer who delivers both excellence and trust.

**★★★★★ — Jeff Greenwald, May 2023**

> I was looking for a designer for the apartment I had just moved to. I spoke with a few designers, and Lily Z Designs Inc. was the perfect fit. Lily Z Designs Inc. was accommodating, flexible and organized. Lily interviewed and listened to me and learned my style. With the LZD process - sketches, web links, alternatives, painting, and installation - I felt very comfortable with my decisions and purchases. My experience with LZD made the work fun and creative. I now have a home that fits me! Highly recommend.

**★★★★★ — A Aguirre, Feb. 2022**

> Lily has been great to work with. She has a wonderful sense of style, is very pleasant, super responsive and catered to our particular tastes (mid-century modern) while giving us ideas to expand what we would do on our own. I have been so impressed with her business model - a way that a client can choose how much design help one wants. Her Z-box is a great idea - it was so much fun when she came to give us the presentation which included boards complete with inspiration photos, layout, renderings of the design and a shopping list. I greatly appreciated her responsiveness to my questions. It’s been a pleasure to work with her and I would definitely recommend her!

**★★★★★ — rtiomkin45, Sept. 2021**

> I have had the privilege of using Lily Z design to design my house. It was in dire need of interior design work and it felt overwhelming. Lily put it all together and helped me create a beautiful home. She is creative, knowledgeable and the consummate  professional. She understood my needs and is a good listener and I loved her attention to detail.

**★★★★★ — nycoffey, Sept. 2021**

> We have worked with Lily and her team for two homes and are so thankful for her work. Lily is excellent at communicating the process and timelines. She works collaboratively, is responsive and listens to all of my ideas, helping me weed out the not so great ideas. The end product and look of a space is always beautiful, practical and perfectly executed. She’s great at finding ways to utilize space efficiently and selecting beautiful fabrics and lighting. I highly recommend.
