**★★★★★ — Sarah Buehler, Dec. 2023**

> Jill has been fantastic in providing me with some great design advice for my kitchen remodel. She has helped with material selection, color choices, and other aspects of the design and layout. Jill has been such a great help, jumping over to the house to help make some last minute decisions with layout with our contractor as well. She has also provided some great advice on future renovation projects to help with current planning. I couldn't be happier with her support.

**★★★★★ — Leslie Lerman, Aug. 2020**

> Jill is fantastic!  We had purchased a new home in Carroll Gardens and needed help decorating both our indoor and outdoor spaces.  Jill helped us pick out furniture, lighting and accessories that fit our style and stayed within our budget. She's very responsive, easy to communicate with, and has a great eye.  Now when I walk in the front door I feel at home.

**★★★★★ — Tracy Dalick Irace, Sept. 2019**

> Jill was great to work with on our bathroom renovation project. The bathroom was stripped down to the studs and just about every pipe and electrical wire was moved.
>
> Throughout the entire process, I felt Jill was on top of everything. Her communication was always swift and clear. She would inform me when to expect deliveries, when designs/drawings were updated, and when any next steps needed to happen. I also appreciate her process in documenting all aspects of the project for me, as well as the contractor.
>
> Additionally her guidance on making calls about the best places to spend our budget during the renovation was invaluable. She candidly would offer her opinion on if a certain change was worth the time and money involved. As someone who has no experience with renovations or extensive home projects, this was invaluable.
>
> The first couple weeks in the new bathroom, I keep thinking how thoughtfully planned even the smallest details were. She was great at channeling me and my family’s needs (height, storage, building factors, etc.) and designing a beautiful bathroom. I really feel we got the the most functional bathroom personalized for us without compromising the design at all. It is absolutely beautiful.
>
> Leading up to the renovation, Jill provided me with just enough options to give me varied choices without overwhelming me. She was flexible in her delivery, which I appreciated - some review sessions were in-person, while other we did via email.
>
> Overall it was a great experience and I would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to friends. I could not be happier with the outcome of her work.

**★★★★★ — D McKenzie, May 2019**

> Jill has an amazing aesthetic. Her work is top-notch and professional in every way. I loved seeing her vision come together and then become a reality. Her resources run deep and she was able to source without problem. Her approach to design is practical as well as beautiful. It was a pleasure to work with Jill and I highly recommend her without hesitation.

**★★★★★ — Stephanie Wolf, May 2019**

> Jill was referred by our friend, and we are so happy she was!  Jill was amazing to work with.  She came in toward the end of a long and challenging move/ renovation when our home was feeling cold and stark - and we were not loving, let alone even liking, our new space.  Now we absolutely love it.  Jill's ideas brought warmth and comfort.  We get compliments every time we have company over on how lovely our home now feels.  Plus she has a great work style - it's clear, easy and fun to go through the process with her - totally no stress and great communication.  We can't recommend Jill enough for any sort of design project in your home. Thank you Jill!!

**★★★★★ — Never Enough Time, May 2019**

> I have recommended Jill to several of my clients and she has always overperformed. Her knowledge of interior design is deep and thoughtful. She really cares about marrying the lifestyle and style of her clients with her aesthetic keeping in mind sustainability and environmental factors. Because she is strong in Project Management, I find that her projects tend to run smoothly without overrun deadlines and budgets. She is extremely personable and communicates well which I feel like is so important when it comes to matters of the home. I highly recommend Jill Shanahan Design!
