I have a BA degree in Interior Design from Wayne State University, and a MS degree in Human Resources from Central Michigan University. My business model is formed around making interior design more approachable. People don't live in museums and they should not put velvet ropes around their rooms. Comfort is key to really living in a space. Design is all about your lifestyle; how you want to live. I offer one-day interior design, using the furniture, art and accessories you already own. I do consultations (general, color, space planning, art/accessories) that take a few hours and I do larger projects, like kitchen remodels. All my clients receive a written design plan that they can either follow on their own, or work with me to shop, bring in contractors and manage the project for them. I have a good eye for seeing how a space can work for a client and we design it together to ensure that the space reflects their tastes, their wishes and their lifestyle. I don't have a store-front business. My office is in my home, and I work with clients onsite. I have a list of preferred vendors and contractors who I trust to handle any project, large or small. I specialize in residential design, but have experience in designing professional offices. ### Services Provided - Interior Design - Kitchen Design - Bathroom Design - Space Planning - Color Consulting - Kids Bedroom Design - Custom Cabinets - Lighting Design - Custom Built-ins - Floor Plans - Playroom Design - Nursery Design - Custom Bathroom Vanities - Custom Blinds & Shades - Closet Design - Universal Design - Custom Bookcases - Custom Walk-in Closets - Sunroom Design & Construction - Custom Entertainment Centers - Sustainable Design - Custom Shelving - Custom Pantries - Drafting - Green Building - Energy-Efficient Homes - Decluttering - Interior Design Photography - Kitchen Remodeling ### Areas Served - Sterling Heights - Troy - Pontiac - Royal Oak - Auburn Hills - Birmingham - Berkley - Fraser - Clawson - Utica - Franklin - Bingham Farms - Clinton Township - Oakland Township - Shelby Township ### Typical Job Cost Based on service, not hourly. ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Your Space Refined, LLC | | Address | P.O.

I hired Lauren on multiple occasions to do the following: > 1\) help me reorganize/refresh a family room that was a complete disaster (she did it one day with items I already had in my home!) > 2\) to then organize and refresh my living and dining room - again all done in one day with items I already owned. The place looked like a showplace when she was done. > 3\) To provide a design plan for my new condo and help me decide which kind of couch and furnishing to buy. > 4\) To provide a design plan for the great room of my new home. This was challenging because the room was very long and narrow with a fireplace smack in the middle. > > In a nutshell, Lauren is a consummate professional who works with your taste (not hers) and does one day design as well as traditional full service interior design. > I would recommend her to anyone. **★★★★★ — Laurie Katz, Nov. 2012** > Lauren helped us decorate the bedrooms of two of our children. We could not have been more happy with the results. The kids love their new rooms, and we were also extremely pleased with the results. Lauren is very cost conscious, and was very good about keeping us on budget. She was a pleasure to work with, and we would highly recommend her to anyone **★★★★★ — jemcustominteriors, Feb. 2012** > Lauren has been a friend and client for many years. When she decided to get back into the design business after many years in another field, she hit the ground running. She's a creative force who knows what she likes and what to do to get it done. She has real patience and knows how to guide her clients as well. ## Selected projects - [Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-pj-vj~33611) - Location: Rochester, MI - Photos: 4 - Description: This kitchen renovation was part of a larger project including the guest bathroom, laundry room and butler's pantry. It was completed in 3 months as part of a 2,900 square-foot home in Rochester, Michigan. The home belongs to Dwight and Lauren Smith. Lauren is an interior designer and owns the firm Your Space Refined. The inspiration for the kitchen design came from the Mission-style furnishings in the home. The project was completed with no major issues in large part due to the design-team appr… - [Bedrooms for Suite Dreams Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bedrooms-for-suite-dreams-project-pj-vj~33613) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 [See all 2 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/your-space-refined-llc-pfvwus-pf~1199651348) ## Ideabooks - [lauren52's ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/34308497/list/lauren52-s-ideas) — 1 idea [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/lauren52) ## Community Q&A **Q: What are the counters & backsplash? Really nice** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The counters are a premium granite in gold. You can't see it in the photo very well, but there are splashes of quartz and tangerine-colored marbling throughout the granite. The back splash is actually a tile that comes in sheets. We hung it in a brick pattern. The tile is also made from stone and came from Virginia Tile. There are so many colors in the tiles, from gold to green and even a grey-blue. The colors complement the granite counters and the cabinetry perfectly. Cabinets were custom built by Cole Wagner Cabinetry, Rochester, MI. Thanks for the nice comment and for your interest. Lauren Smith, Designer Your Space Refined **Q: Need help to choose exterior color!** *(in Design Dilemma)* We can't stand the blue on the outside of our house. We are a young couple and we want a more modern look, while keeping the style of our century-old house! I tried a chocolate-brown color with photoshop, this is the result. Any suggestions we might not have thought of? Thanks a lot!! A: Try sage green on the house and garage. Then, do something different with the shutters. For example, paint them the same color as the house, but on the horizontal pieces of wood on the shutters, paint those an ivory or cream tone. This will allow for some contrast and will make the home look more contemporary. **Q: Dimensions** *(in Photo Questions)* What are the dimensions of this kitchen? A: This kitchen is 19' long x 13' wide with standard 8' ceilings. Thank you for your inquiry. Lauren Smith, Designer Your Space Refined **Q: Where can I find these window treatments?** *(in Photo Questions)* Where can I find these window treatments? A: It is almost impossible to tell from a photo, exactly what the fabric is. Most likely, this is a custom made roman shade, which can be made using the fabric of your choice. Linen wrinkles easily. I would probably make this shade using a cotton-polyester blend, with some texture, that resembles silk or linen, but is much more durable. Also, much less expensive.
