**★★★★★ — Sarah McFarland, Dec. 2024**

> I have worked with Rachael several times and I love working with her. Not only is she fun to work with as a person, her design insights are always on point. She has a great network for big projects, as well, helping me find the right quality at the right price. 100/10 recommend.

**★★★★★ — parnunfish, July 2024**

> We really enjoyed working with Rachael and we love our space. I feel that she really helped us find our style and execute a plan.

**★★★★★ — Sonny Christopher, May 2024**

> Rachel was incredible! I was looking to redesign/renovate my place. The floorplan didn't really make sense, there was too much wasted space, and didn't really feel like a home. We sat down together and came up with a plan and could not be happier with how it turned out! The most impressive part was how well Rachael managed the process. I've been part of renovations before and they have all been stressful, over budget and not completed on time. Not this one. She was able to coordinate all the contractors and get everything done in the time frame we set! It was the least stressful project I have ever done!

**Comment from Perennial Design Studio:**

> Thanks so much Sonny! I'm so happy to have helped you through the process!

**★★★★★ — Rick Arnold, May 2024**

> Rachael and I have worked projects together for the past several years. She is the perfect liaison between contractor and her client. Rachael has a rare ability to guide her clients to decisions that are their own. I would and do recommend Rachael to anyone wanting design assistance and know that they will be receiving the most personal service possible.

**Comment from Perennial Design Studio:**

> We have each others backs Rick, we make a great team! See you on the next one!

**★★★★★ — Danyell Henry, May 2024**

> Rachael is absolutely amazing to work with! Extremely talented. I've had the pleasure of working with her on several of my personal homes and I'm always so happy with the end result. Can not recommend enough!

**Comment from Perennial Design Studio:**

> Thanks Danyell! I absolutely love helping repeat clients move and grow! Can't wait to work again together soon.

**★★★★★ — Jeffrey Seeman, Nov. 2020**

> We gave Rachael a tall order to fill - a dream lake house for the family - and the results truly exceeded our expectations. The lakefront property we purchased afforded a wonderful view overlooking Cordell Hull Lake in Tennessee and we asked her to design a 3 bedroom, 3 bath house with substantial loft space for our grandchildren to play and sleep, an open, spacious kitchen/dining area adjacent to a living room we could all gather in - all of which should have ample windows to enjoy the view - a nice stone patio for meals outside, and a covered deck out front to lounge on and enjoy the scenery.  We got all of that plus the extra touches Rachael brought to the project that we had not originally envisioned, like including a high deck roof on tall pillars that allowed us a second story wall of glass for a stunning, shaded lake view from the loft and a great sky view from the deck while still being able to sit out in the rain and stay dry, plus it just looks classy. Rachael proved that bringing a professional designer to your project is one of those decisions that you look back on with a huge sense of relief as you admire and live in the finished result because you are reminded of all the features that weren't there when you first had a design in mind and asked for help. Thanks, Rach!

**Comment from Perennial Design Studio:**

> It was such a pleasure Jeffrey! It was absolutely wonderful to see everything come together! Still one of my favorite projects to date!

**★★★★★ — Danelese, Nov. 2020**

> Rachael did an excellent job guiding me through a bathroom remodel. We went from a majorly water damaged 1950's style to a modern spa like experience. She is a great listener who worked within my budget, gave me plenty of options, and was always available for any questions. Can't wait for my next project with her!

**★★★★★ — Dave Seeman, Nov. 2020**

> Rachael helped me with space planning in our office. We can fit several more employees before and are way more organized - a huge benefit for a small but growing company like ours. Your business will definitely benefit from hiring a professional to design your space.

**Comment from Perennial Design Studio:**

> Thanks Dave! You all were great to work with, hope the space is serving you better now!

**★★★★★ — Melanie Mays, Nov. 2020**

> Perennial Design Studio was awesome at helping me work on my kitchen and select tile for a new backsplash! She took my budget into account and made very educated suggestions. I would 100% recommend her!

**Comment from Perennial Design Studio:**

> Thanks so much Melanie! I'm so glad I got to help you with your kitchen project.
