### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Joseph Piccinini, Oct. 2023**

> Absolutely amazing! Monique did a terrific job with my whole house renovation job! She has a keen eye for taking a house that lacks luster and turning into a luxury home. She is the perfect person to use for creating bold yet comforting aesthetics in your coastal home. Strongly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Jaime Fahy, July 2023**

> Monique comes with my highest recommendations! She is professional, creative, and lovely to work with. She helped us design a gorgeous coastal kitchen and we have recommended her to friends and family where she has continued to produce beautiful work.  Thanks Monique!

**★★★★★ — Jay Jeannotte, Jan. 2023**

> This was my first time going through the home renovation process. I had no idea where to start, but luckily, I came across Monique very early in my search for help. It was obvious she was the best person for the project even before our initial consultation was over. I was immediately blown away by her expertise and overall vision for the house.
>
> With any home renovation, especially a total home renovation as in my case, you would expect some bumps in the road along the way. That didn't happen. The entire process was seamless due to Monique's professionalism, transparency, and meticulous attention to detail. It made it even easier that every idea she had or selection she made was always perfect.
>
> I am absolutely in love with my new house. The finished product is vastly better than I could have ever imagined. Working with Monique was one of the best decisions I have ever made, and I give her the highest recommendation possible. Thank you, Monique!!

**★★★★★ — Heather and Jeff, Nov. 2022**

> Monique was instrumental to our successful home building project.  She assisted from the early design stage through completion.  She took the time to understand our personal tastes and present us design options that fit our vision.  Even with the countless number of decisions that needed to be made, Monique never lost sight of the big picture and the overall flow of our home. Our home is everything we dreamed it would be and more.  We cannot compliment her enough.
>
> Monique was a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend her services.

**★★★★★ — Nancy, Nov. 2022**

> After a failed attempt to try to put together a full bath and half bath remodel myself, thank goodness I met Monique from Balanced Interiors.  There are no words to express my gratitude for all her help and inspiration.  She has such a great sense of what designs are current but will also stand the test of time while considering the style of your home and budget.  Monique is so attentive to every detail and making sure everything is done perfect.  I absolutely love Monique and have already used her for a bedroom makeover and plan on using her for all my future projects. I honestly can't thank her enough!  I highly recommend Monique for your interior design needs!

**★★★★★ — Flynn ADU, Oct. 2022**

> Monique’s guidance was invaluable.  She is especially gifted with paint matching and kitchen layout.  We could not have completed our ADU without her assistance.

**★★★★★ — Chris Duckworth, Oct. 2022**

> After working with Monique 7 years ago on a complete kitchen remodel we contacted her again for her expertise knowledge as we embarked on construction of a new home! She was instrumental in the design/layout of our kitchen, pantry and bathrooms including selection of all cabinetry, tile and countertops! She also assisted in lighting selections for the entire home (which I love) and all window treatments! During construction she was always quick to respond to questions and was in direct contact with our general contractor so everyone was always on the same page. We have an open kitchen/great room with a tray ceiling in the kitchen and coffered ceiling in the great room which she designed so it looks seamless and adds to the overall beauty of our home! Besides her depth of design knowledge she is a pleasure to work with and is a thoughtful, kind person! Would recommend to anyone in need of an interior designer!

**★★★★★ — lmcdonald411, Jan. 2021**

> We hired Monique at Balanced Interiors to transform a formal living/dining room that was hardly used, into one, large family room.  Starting with the initial meeting, she offered suggestions and developed plans and sketches that considered our individual tastes (sometimes husband and wife differed), personalities, and budget.  Monique is an extremely talented professional and a pleasure to work. I would highly recommend her for future projects. We love our new room and most importantly - we use it daily.

**★★★★★ — jduff411, Dec. 2020**

> Monique has done a wonderful job guiding us through the decorating of our new condo. This is a true feat because we have so many likes and dislikes, and we didn’t know how to make the whole space work together. She has a keen eye and a sense of balance. She patiently yet quickly moved us through the whole process from furniture selection to artwork. I’ve had so many sincere complements on the completed project, and I love just sitting in our newly decorated space. It’s so pleasing. I also like that Monique works using an hourly rate rather than through commission. I never felt pressure to purchase any particular piece from a particular line. She always kept our best interests in mine. Monique is a joy to work with, and the results were outstanding.

**Comment from Balanced Interiors:**

> Hi Jill and Bob,  I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying your new condo!  Thank you for asking me to assist you with transitioning from your home of many years to a new condo and new lifestyle.

**★★★★★ — HU-391384541, Dec. 2019**

> After putting off a major remodel for years, my husband and I were faced with the overwhelming task of upgrading our home to prepare for a future sale.  Monique and I had collaborated on a work project several years ago and I knew she had the professionalism and creativity to guide us through the process. During her first visit she helped us overcome some major structural and design challenges we had thought would severely limit our choices. Monique worked with us each step of the way to develop a design that blended our personalities with a design that would appeal to future buyers. She is resourceful, flexible and her experience inspired a level of trust that made the project go far more smoothly than we thought possible. My husband and I are absolutely thrilled with the results.

**★★★★★ — Diane Sullivan, Dec. 2019**

> We would highly recommend Monique Sabotino for your interior design work. With Monique's experience in her field, design and color sense, you will be very pleased with the outcome of your project.

**★★★★★ — Patti Crandall, Oct. 2018**

> Monique was a great help to me in completing our unfinished basement.  She guided me through the process of selecting materials, lighting,furniture and artwork.  She directed me to the most talented people in their field. A project that could have been overwhelming became fun and exciting.  Monique has a great personality as well as great design taste. I feel that when you are spending so much money and want a timeless,functional space it is best to surround yourself with a talented professional. Monique was the perfect selection and it was a pleasure to work with her.

**Comment from Balanced Interiors:**

> Thank you Patti and Steve, it was a pleasure working with you and creating a beautiful space.  I loved hearing about you talk of having neighborhood gatherings and wanting to create a comfortable yet private space for when your adult children and their families to come to visit.  I wish you all the best and many happy times in your new space!
> Best,
> Monique

  - Description: This ocean front condo had terrific views but it was dated from the 1970's. My clients needed assistance in renovating the entire condo. We began with gutting the kitchen and bathrooms and changing the layouts of both. All mechanicals needed updating. I provided them with a color palette, furniture layouts and furniture shopping, assisting with accessories and providing window treatments. It was a real pleasure working with my clients and the contractor. We still all remain friends and love runn…

## Community Q&A

**Q: what kind of tile?** *(in Photo Questions)*

For backsplash

A: It's a handmade porcelain tile with a hand painted finish.

**Q: granite** *(in Photo Questions)*

Could you tell me what the name of the granite is used here?  Thank you!

A: Good Luck with your project and enjoy the transformative process!

**Q: Cabinets** *(in Photo Questions)*

I was wondering if these are maple cabinets?  I was also wondering what the brand and color were?  Thank you.

A: Hi Nicole,  The wood species is birch which is similar to maple but at the time a little less expensive.  The brand is Bertch.com and the wood stain is called Dawn.  This is one of my favorite kitchens, I'm glad you like it!

**Q: Where was the tile purchased?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: All the tile for this bathroom was purchased from Hill & Harbour Tile Showroom in East Greenwich, RI.  Walls are RO GASU SABBIA 8"x20" and the glass deco tile is TT MOP OC/1020

**Q: What tile mfg. & color did you use on the bathroom floor?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi, I bought the tile from Hill & Harbour in RI. It is Un Un OA 6"x36" with \#25 standard grey grout.

**Q: What tile did you use for the shower mfg. & color? Thank You** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi Chris, I used Precious Gems Pesaro Stone Glass Medley in a .625 x .625 size, color is Spa \#35-100.  The field tile is a 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" Porcelain tile that is now discontinued I'm sorry to say.  I'm sure you could find something very similar though. I used the coordinating 2"x2" on the shower floor.  I'm glad you liked it! Thanks, Monique
