**★★★★★ — Kwan Design Architects, Dec. 2025**

> I am an architect who has the pleasure of collaborating with Heather Hilliard Design (HHD) on several projects.  HHD was able to integrate interior design with architectural elements & their creative solutions helped elevate the design beyond initial expectations.  I recommend HHD to any architects or homeowners seeking a talented interior designer & elevates the quality of their projects.

**★★★★★ — Lindenbaum Art Advisory Inc, March 2016**

> Heather Hilliard and her team are wonderful to work with. They have an impressive rapport with their clients and it has been a pleasure to collaborate with them on art for their projects. Heather is able to describe her clients and their preferences and provide insight as we move through the art selection process. Heather's training in the arts lends a sophisticated eye to her clients. The final selections are always just right for the space. I highly recommend working with Heather.

**★★★★★ — janetkunze, Sept. 2015**

> Heather Hilliard Design (HHD) completely performed beyond our expectations and wildest dreams! Our first project with them was our recent one (August 2015) to decorate and design our interim home,  while another is being built.  Her team proved that they are completely customer focused by listening to what we wanted and needed for our lifestyle and busy family.  We were presented with exceptional but affordable pieces and layouts for each room that totally worked for our family and came together so beautifully.  HHD is so knowledgeable with materials and furnishings.  When our home came together, we walked into the final production and there was a collective "Wow!" from our family.  I never felt so excited about moving into a new place!  Our children immediately fell in love with their comfortable bedrooms and vibrant play area and family room.  We just loved everything about our new home.

> HHD has exceptional taste, stays within budget, truly listens to their clients' needs and executed with a personal, professional touch.  I loved working with them!  In fact, we are looking forward to collaborating with HHD on the new home we're building.  They've earned our trust and respect in this intimate endeavor of creating a home and we are so excited to work with them again!  We highly recommend HHD - they won't disappoint and you'll be as impressed as we are if you hire them.

**★★★★★ — dj\_keller88, Aug. 2015**

> Heather Hilliard Design provided us with remarkable service and fantastic results designing and furnishing our home in San Francisco. Every aspect of the project to fully furnish our new home in Presidio Heights was done expertly and professionally while providing an experience that was personal, friendly and fun. Heather and her staff treated us with the utmost respect and care utilizing our ideas and focusing on our needs, allowing us to repurpose where possible and explore new possibilities where desired.

**★★★★★ — Kyle Rosenthal, July 2015**

> Heather and her team produced results way beyond our expectations. Our new San Francisco home feels more like a home than any of our other properties. Our only regret is that we didn't find her sooner. We look forward to working with her again.

**★★★★★ — Antique & Art Exchange, Dec. 2014**

> Heather has worked with us for years and has been one of our favorite San Francisco designers. Heather has a great ability to use antique pieces in contemporary settings without having the old clash with the new. We worked with Heather for a California Homes magazine feature, "Antiques in Modern Design" and we loved the way Heather thought about color in her vignettes. This eye for color and ability to blend eras is continuously impressive and we are happy to work with Heather time and time again.
