I would highly recommend Benavides Design for larger scale renovation project planning and interior & exterior design work. > > We enjoy and appreciate our home updates so much, we were very much looking forward to returning home after our summer vacation. ### All 49 reviews **★★★★★ — Jenna V, Oct. 2025** > Working with Kristen and Oscar at Benavides Design House was truly the best decision I made when building my new home. They were the perfect duo, guiding me seamlessly from the very first design phase all the way through the final completion of construction. > > One of the most valuable services they provided was taking my architectural plans and thoughtfully reviewing furniture layouts to ensure every room flowed properly. The tweaks they suggested saved us countless headaches later in the process. For more than two years, they worked side-by-side with us, and their combined knowledge of architecture, design, and décor proved to be unmatched. > > From designing complex custom trim work for my 6,000-square-foot home to fine-tuning even the smallest details, like the selection of kitchen hardware, Kristen and Oscar were meticulous, creative, and always professional. What could have been an overwhelming process was instead an enjoyable and exciting journey, thanks to their expertise and dedication. > > I cannot recommend Benavides Design House highly enough. They turned what could have been a stressful home-building experience into a dream come true. **★★★★★ — Stephanie Wang, Sept. 2025** > Kristen, Oscar, and their team were extremely pleasant and professional to work with. We renovated our entire home and they made the process as stress-free as possible. We received floor plans, they set up meetings with showrooms and contractors, and were always available to answer any questions we had along the way. They truly turned our house into a home and I couldn’t be happier! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Hi Stephanie!! Thank you so much for the kind words and your time to come on here and speak about your experience with our team. We all enjoyed working with you and are so happy with how the new space will change your day to day lives! What a transformation, thank you for trusting us! :) > Gratefully, > Team BDH **★★★★★ — Anthony Capello, Oct. 2024** > We had a great experience with Benavides Design. > > We engaged them to help us plan a complete renovation to our master bedroom and bathroom. Our master bath was tiny and we never used it as a result. We thought that we had limited options on how to expand it and none of them were very great. > > Benavides came in and was very creative in the approach they took to re-laying out the entire suite to maximize space and give us the large master bath that we always wanted but didn’t think was possible! They were also very helpful in assisting us with finish and fixture selections and using their established relationship with local vendors to their clients advantage. We had a great experience with Benavides Design and absolutely love our master suite! **★★★★★ — Stasia Morlino, Sept. 2024** > Working with Kristen, Oscar, and the entire Benavides Design team was a dream come true. They assisted with 3 bathroom renovations as well as an entire basement renovation. From the moment I met them, they were responsive and kind. They helped with everything from picking out tile and cabinetry down to hardware and paint colors. They eliminated any and all stress. They turned my outdated space into something I never could have imagined, all while remaining humble and kind. I can not recommend them enough and look forward to our next project! **★★★★★ — HU-931475370, Sept. 2024** > Transformative Experience with Benavides Design House, LLC > > My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Kristen and Oscar at Benavides Design House on a challenging design and remodeling project and I cannot express enough how thrilled we were with the entire experience! From our very first consultation to the final reveal, their talent and dedication truly shone through. > > Through each step with this dynamic duo, their exceptional talent and creativity are nothing short of extraordinary. They possess an innate ability to understand their clients’ visions while also bringing their own amazing ideas to the table. They listened intently to our needs and preferences, and then seamlessly translated them into a design that exceeded our expectations. Their creativity is boundless, and they have an incredible knack for finding unique and elegant solutions to even the most challenging architectural remodels and decor dilemmas. > > What truly sets Benavides Design House apart is their impeccable customer service. They made us feel valued and heard throughout the entire process. Communication was always prompt and clear, which made the project flow smoothly. It was evident that they genuinely care about their clients' satisfaction, going above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. To top it all off, they made it really fun! They added to the excitement we felt and genuinely enjoyed watching it come together with us like good friends working together. > > One of the standout aspects of working with Kristen and Oscar was their ability to tackle challenges with innovative solutions. Whether it was maximizing space in a small room or selecting the perfect color palette to enhance natural light, they approached each obstacle with enthusiasm and expertise. Their resourcefulness in sourcing unique materials and decor pieces added a personal touch that truly made our space one-of-a-kind. > > If you're looking for an interior design company that combines talent, creativity, and outstanding customer service, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking to transform their home into a beautiful, functional space. Thank you, Oscar and Kristen, for your hard work and dedication—you have made our dream home a reality! **★★★★★ — Lisa Cooney, Sept. 2024** > I started with the Benavides design team in September 2022. We spent the first year together designing a complete renovation of my lake home. The design team came up with three variations and I ultimately choose one. Despite the fact that I had lived in the home for more than 10 years and had strong opinions on what needed to be changed, the design team came up with ideas of which I had never thought. > > Once a final design was in place, I went with the design team to choose all materials -- kitchen appliances, hardwood floors, chandeliers, bathroom fixtures, etc. That way, when general contractors (GC) gave me estimates for the projects, allowances were not permitted in the bid. The design team also helped me choose the GC for the job, which took six months. Taking my budget into account, the design team also helped me choose furniture for my new rooms. > > It is the two year mark, and I'm now living in my dream home. Oscar and Kristen and their team are experts in their field and an absolute pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them. **★★★★★ — Duncan Prime, Sept. 2024** > My wife and I knew our project (total kitchen remodel & addition!) was ambitious and would require the right design consultants. From the moment we had our first consultation with Kristen and Oscar, we knew we had made the right choice. The Benavides team guided us through the entire process - start to finish - serving as a true consultant by not just designing the space, but also helping us choose fixtures, appliances, etc. I cannot overstate how important it was to have them guide us throughout the way. I highly recommend Benavides Design House to anyone, particularly on the larger-scale projects like ours. **★★★★★ — Josh, Sept. 2024** > From start to finish, the Benavides team was excellent! We renovated our whole first floor which included additions and even a new basement. They provided amazing design suggestions as well as a 3D rendering to help us see their vision. They helped pick out all the components and finishes and we couldn't be happier with the final product. We will def be using them again for the rest of the house ;) **★★★★★ — Beth Pfleger, April 2024** > Kristen and her team were a delight to work with. They gave their advice but also listened to my visions. I downsized and gutted my new home It was a little overwhelming to me but with their help it turned out perfect! Thanks so much to Kristen and her entire team. **★★★★★ — staceyk814, Jan. 2024** > Kristen and Oscar from Benavides Design were great to work with and designed our dream kitchen. I didn't even realize what I had wanted until they laid it out, created 3D renderings, and a virtual walk through. Their attention to detail throughout the whole process was invaluable - from the measurements, to all of the finishes and selections, and working hand in hand with our contractor. They were always available and ready to answer any question I had along the way. The design far exceeded my expectations and we absolutely love our kitchen!! We have already referred them to friends and you'd be in great hands having them design your home. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thanks so much Stacey! So glad my brother connected us, you guys were a pleasure to work with! Enjoy that new space!! Cheers to all the memories you are going to make for years to come! :) **★★★★★ — Greg R, Jan. 2024** > Kristin, Oscar and LJ were fantastic! They guided us through the design phase, presented and implemented the plan all along keeping our budget in-line. Highly recommend. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you so much Greg! Cheers to many years of success in your new office space! Hope the clients love it! **★★★★★ — Janet Sullo, Jan. 2024** > Early last year we undertook a project to totally redesign and renovate our master bedroom bath and family room. We engaged Benavides Design House to help us through the entire project and couldn’t be happier with the result. The full-service support of the combined design and architectural expertise that Kristen and Oscar afforded us was second to none. They interpreted the basic ideas of what we wanted to accomplish and transformed them into a final product that far exceeded our expectations. Their assistance in choosing a contractor, selecting material, and acting as a resource to the contractor through various stages of the project was invaluable. What we found tremendously helpful was how they accompanied us as we visited each of the many vendors supplying building material, fixtures, tile, stone etc. They are responsive, creative, customer focused, and we thank them for their exceptional support. We highly recommend them. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Hi Janet, > Oscar and I and very grateful we got to connect with you and help transform your vision into reality! You and Carl have great taste, so it was an absolute pleasure helping you create your spa bathroom! The showerhead coming out of the skylight is my favorite! Thank you for taking the time to share those kind words! > Gratefully, > Kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — amywinner, Jan. 2024** > Kristen and her team are absolutely amazing. I found myself with the opportunity to build a house from scratch and called Kristen in a panic with all the decisions that had to be made. She took the hodgepodge of ideas I had and turned them into the perfect mix of modern, comfortable, and ME. I had this crazy idea that I wanted to have teal kitchen cabinets - left to my own devices, this could have been a tacky disaster. She turned my ideas into a kitchen that's stunning. Every single person who walks in comments on how much they love the teal. Thank you Kristen and team!! You have been so so good at listening to my budget, likes/dislikes, and weird requests and turning it into something that's so much better than I imagined! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Amy!! Congratulations on moving into your new construction home!!! Such an undertaking with many decisions, and we are so grateful that we could be a part of your journey! Love that you take chances with color and now have a home that reflects your personality and is simply beautiful. Wish you many magical memories in your forever home! **★★★★★ — Wendy Pernas, April 2023** > Loved working with the Benavides team for our master bath remodel! It turned out better than we even envisioned! Their plans were very detailed and any questions or concerns were answered promptly! Kristen also helped pick out paint and window treatments for our master bedroom and everything blends beautifully. Love this space! **★★★★★ — Amanda LaSelva, March 2023** > Kristen and Oscar helped transform and modernize our recently purchased and outdated home. Moving into our house felt extremely overwhelming since every room needed some TLC. Both Kristen and Oscar took their time to survey the property and provided us with great options on furniture and room planning. After I sent Kristen some design inspiration she presented us with spot on design choices for our project. She provided us with 3D renderings on 3 of our focused rooms (bar, kitchen, living room). She also completed beautiful stylings for our dining room, 2 half baths, primary bedroom and two sitting rooms . We were uncertain how the updates would come out since we kept the original flooring (red oak). The final look has exceeded our expectations! As as sit here on my new sofa, I am amazed at how that vision came to life. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you SO very much for taking the time to write this review Amanda and mostly for trusting us to help you with your new home!!! Gratefully, kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — Stephen & Amanda Edwards, Oct. 2022** > Kristen and Oscar are a dream team! We bought our house with lots of hope and in need of a ton of help. They completely re-designed our first floor to maximize the space and make it much more functional for our family. They took our bucket list and made it a reality (i.e. Massive island, upstairs laundry room, and outdoor living!). Additionally, they helped with all finishing selections, furniture layout and even paint colors, so everything coordinated perfectly. We are so grateful and happy that Benavides helped make our house a home! **★★★★★ — RP, Oct. 2022** > We are so thankful that we found Kristen and Oscar Benavides to design and decorate our newly purchased house. We wanted a nice, airy, comfortable house and their work far exceeded our expectations. We received so many compliments on their work but, more importantly, we are so happy when we sit back and marvel at the transformation from the house that we moved into to the dream house that we now enjoy with our family. > It was both the big things and the little things. Kristen and Oscar looked past the existing layout and made every room special. Their expertise in so many areas was only surpassed by how easy they were to work with and their engaging personalities. Their design plans guided the contractors and they were hands on throughout the process to ensure that all work was done correctly and to their (and our) satisfaction. > The unique ideas, the layout, the furniture, and the accessories made the process worth it!! We are very satisfied customers of the Benavides Design House and highly recommend them. **★★★★★ — Alicia, Oct. 2022** > There is not enough space to write down what a positive experience it has been working with Benevides Design. Kristen and Oscar truly care about what you need and went above and beyond to make sure our vision was brought to life. They provided their opinions in the appropriate areas, gave their expertise without undermining what we wanted, and our kitchen turned out better than I could have imaged. They gave tips on where to purchase items from, in most cases exact to what is in the design and walked through the entire process of cabinet selection, plumbing, tile, flooring etc. to make sure what we designed on paper was what we ordered. The husband-and-wife duo are friendly, creative and their design styles go beyond just your typical or “in style” looks. They can take a space to modern, farmhouse, transitional, beachy or a combination of all those styles and make it work! I am certainly not the easiest person to work with as I am particular and picky. They beyond delivered and exceeded my expectations. If you need help perfecting a space and not sure where to go, I cannot recommend Benevides Design enough. **★★★★★ — Heidi Tenebruso, Oct. 2022** > We decided on pursuing a huge kitchen reno project. The only thing I knew is that we wanted to knock down a wall and expand our kitchen. After much research on picking a designer, we went with Kristen and Oscar. They worked closely with us, listening to our ideas and suggesting different options. A few weeks following we were presented with a 3D conceptual video that blew us away. They were true professionals from start to finish, and worked hand in hand with everyone required for the job including recommending and working with the contractor, helping us pick out the cabinets, colors, flooring, hardware, appliances....everything! Kristen and Oscar were so easy to talk to and very responsive with any questions we had. We couldn't be happier with how our kitchen turned out! So, if you're in the market for a professional designer for your next project...it's Kristen and Oscar at Benavides Design House for the win! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you so much Heidi! You guys went big with the changes and it paid off in spades! The way you will use your new space this holiday season will be a complete game changer, we are so excited for you and your family! **★★★★★ — Tara Gleeson, Oct. 2022** > Kristen and Oscar are incredible to work with. They are professional, communicative and trustworthy. They were excellent in communicating timelines, delays and updates. Their attention to detail is evident in all aspects of the project. I was particularly happy with their budgeting process which allows you to choose options and plans that fit your comfort level. My favorite design feature is the lighting pieces....they are jewelry for the rooms. > It was truly an outstanding experience. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you Tara! We are so thrilled with how your spaces turned out and can't wait to move on to the next project with you! **★★★★★ — Matthew Pinto, Oct. 2022** > Kristen and Oscar are design magicians. They took an old, ugly, outdated, non-functional master bathroom and master bedroom walk-in-closets into one of the most beautiful spaces in our home. When our friends come over and see it for the first time they have the same reaction we do, they can't believe this is someone's bathroom and not a 5 star hotel bathroom. Their unique blend of both interior design and architecture make them a totally unique company, and they fact they are husband and wife is a bonus. Even my contractor was amazed at how well they designed the bathroom and stayed involved during the construction process. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you so very much for your kind review Matt! Hope you continue to enjoy your in home spa retreat for many many years! It was our pleasure designing it for you and working with you and your contractor! Great team all around equals awesome results! > Gratefully, > Kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — Sharon, July 2022** > Kristen and her husband are a top notch design duo who are easy to work with and their work is exceptional. Would recommend them to anyone looking to renovate their home **★★★★★ — Joe Campbell, May 2022** > Kristen and Oscar are the ultimate professionals and a joy to work with! They completely transformed our first floor beyond our highest expectations! Their experience, attention to detail and exquisite taste made what would have been an overwhelming project for us into a pleasant, exciting and FUN adventure. They listened to our thoughts and ideas and offered us many options for the numerous decisions we had to make, always keeping in mind the budget we had set. Despite COVID and the many associated challenges, Kristen and Oscar were very responsive and accommodating and kept us informed of every detail throughout the project. Kristen and Oscar are truly the “dynamic duo” and just the best team to work with! We absolutely love our new space and loved working with them. > Eileen & Joe **★★★★★ — Dominick Lombardo, Sept. 2021** > Kristen and Oscar were fantastic to work with. They came to our home and spent a generous amount of time with my wife and me and carefully listened to all of our wants and needs. After they gathered all of the necessary information, they put together FIVE different options for us to choose from. It was clear that they put a lot of time and effort into developing variety of choices for us. Once we chose the design that we wanted, they continued to work with us to make some additional changes until we arrived at the perfect layout. Then they put together a 3D video of what our kitchen would look like. That was probably the best part because it gave us a real life feel as what to expect. Our kitchen came out great and we couldn't have done it without Kristen and Oscar. They are truly the best! **★★★★★ — Nicole Skeehan, Aug. 2021** > If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would! We hired Kristen and Oscar to transform the hayloft of our horse barn into a guest suite. It is an oddly shaped space (about 800 sq ft) and we couldn’t quite figure out how to lay it out. We asked for a layout that had a small living area, kitchenette, bathroom and fit a queen bed. > > We could have never imagined how well the space could come out. They actually helped us transform the space into a legitimate living quarters with a full kitchen, spa bathroom, and TWO (!!!) Queen beds. And they sourced all of the furniture from their design houses. So it flows beautifully. > > I refer them to all of my friends. Can’t wait to have them back this fall to reimagine our home for us. > > Before and after pics posted. **★★★★★ — Lena Siddiqi, June 2021** > We've been working with Kristen and Oscar for almost 2 years now on a major renovation and expansion. We are beyond excited with the results. It literally surpassed all expectations that we had. They were such a great team to work with, as they seamlessly worked with our architect and GC. They came up with so many solutions to major and minor problems we had in working on our 100 year old home. They are not just a design team, but so much more. Oscar's expertise on architecture is so unique and innovative. We had many hurdles working on an older home, but you would never know looking at the final product. Oscar had a solution for everything. > The designs that Kristen came up with are amazing. As soon as you walk into our home, you see every detail and it's breathtaking. Everyone who comes into our front door wants to know who designed it, and we've been referring them all to Benavides Design House. **★★★★★ — allison\_reiley, May 2021** > Kristen recently designed my beautiful new laundry room and bathroom and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Kristen has impeccable taste and a wonderful vision. She drew up our plans and then seamlessly worked with the contractor to deliver without a single hiccup. It was truly the best experience and we couldn’t have done it without her! **★★★★★ — Aysha H, Jan. 2021** > Kristen and Oscar shared our vision like none other. This design group is by far the most superior design group I have ever worked with. I have worked with other designers but this company can not only show you the design prior to purchase or completion but they open up your horizons to unique options that make your home stand out more than any other. They also helped correct many architectural errors that only gave our home an even grander appearance. This company is simply amazing. Highly recommended! **★★★★★ — mgdecorating, Dec. 2020** > Benavides Design House (BDH) is very easy to work with—they adapt to your budget, your timeline, and your taste. We knew we wanted to remodel our bathroom, but after spending hours looking at tile ourselves, we knew we needed help. BDH was recommended to us and I loved their photos on social media. They came to see our space and made several layout suggestions. They can even provide a 3D rendering to give you a better feel for the finished space. With the layout decided, they scheduled showroom appointments to choose the materials (tile, fixtures, vanity, etc). All of the selections were amazingly made in one afternoon! Then they will place the orders, or you can. You can use your own construction team, or they will suggest a contractor. Their flexibility and knowledge takes the stress out of renovations! **★★★★★ — Merrik K., Dec. 2020** > We selected Benavides Design House after an extensive review of design firms in the NJ/PA area. Kristen and Oscar are an exceptionally talented duo who deliver great design mixed with the right touch of technology so you can see your soon to be transformed space come to life. Kristen was patient with us, listened to our needs, and our new family room and bathroom turned out better than we imagined! We all already working with BDH on our next project. **★★★★★ — Marilena LaRosa, Nov. 2020** > Kristen and Oscar are brilliant! They are the perfect team for your design needs. They did an amazing job creating the layout and design of our new kitchen. They worked with us on every detail, helped us with item selection and had a plan ready for us to get accurate bits from various contractors. They also oversaw the project while it was happening in case there were design/ lay out issues and were extremely helpful and creative. The entire kitchen project went very smooth. I can’t wait to use them for my next project! **★★★★★ — lorigamble, Oct. 2020** > If you are looking for a dedicated, talented, and professional design team to create the most beautiful space, you have to contact Benavides Design House. Kristen and Oscar are seriously the BEST! They are incredibly talented and a joy to work with. They led us through a challenging exterior and interior home renovation project. Thanks to them our house is everything we wanted and so much more beautiful than we could have imagined. > > Kristen and Oscar are truly amazing! They are creative, responsive, and flexible but most importantly great listeners. They will turn your home into everything you want and more. I cannot recommend them enough! **★★★★★ — Patrick Foulke, May 2020** > Kristen & Oscar are quite possibly the best hire we have ever made. They make the process of design work effortless. They have the capabilities of not only creating stunning spaces to enjoy, but the understanding of actual construction, the knowledge of the costs associated, the ability to follow budgets, the resources to pull it all together and the patience to keep everything and EVERYONE together. I guarantee Kristen & Oscar are on the guest list for the first party you throw to show off your new project. -We hired BDH to design our entire new construction home- **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Pat- you are the sweetest, thank you so much for your review! Oscar and I very much enjoy working with you and are so excited that you have moved into your brand new home to make memories raising your family! It is such a special space and I hope everyone that enters your home (once social distancing is finally over) can feel the love WE ALL put into it! Cheers to you guys!! **★★★★★ — Jacqueline Blackman, May 2020** > What an amazing experience working with Kristen! She was able to bring our dream kitchen into reality. Aside from being so kind and professional, Kristen listened to what we wanted and had great suggestions along the way. I highly recommend Benavides Design House and would certainly use them again! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you so much Jacqui!!! I very much enjoyed working with you and hope to again in the future! **★★★★★ — jagounaris, Oct. 2019** > I am so glad that we enlisted Kristen and Oscar to help us design our kitchen. I didn't even know where to begin and they swooped in and saved the day. They came up with an awesome design and even shopped with me for cabinets and finishes. Kristen checked in with me throughout the project and was always available if I had any questions or "urgent" situations. I highly recommend this duo! **★★★★★ — vetgregg, Sept. 2019** > Kristen and Oscar were wonderful to work with. Their ideas for our kitchen were very creative. They designed the space we asked for but also gave us new ideas to consider (most of which we implemented). Kristen was very helpful i picking fixtures and design elements. They were very responsive and helpful to any questions that we asked. Both of them saw the job through to completion. The vendors they recommended us to were all fantastic as well. We would highly recommend using this company. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you so much for the review Jill!! We really appreciate you! - Kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — Elizabeth Murray, Sept. 2019** > We are so grateful to be working with Benavides Design House! Kristen and Oscar made planning for our kitchen makeover easy. They clearly outlined the steps and plan for us upfront and their communication and response times are excellent. > From the initial meeting and truly understanding our needs to the designs, 3D renderings, and a 'field trip' to make our selections - they are helping us to make our dream kitchen a reality. Benavides Design House's extensive knowledge, attention to detail, and strong relationships with contractors and industry providers has saved us so much time and made the entire process exciting and enjoyable. > We've already met with and received quotes from trusted contractors they recommended. They've given us the confidence to move forward with this project. We are thrilled with their service and professionalism. We highly recommend Benavides Design House! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Liz and Conor, you guys have been a true joy to work with and we are so excited for your family to make such a drastic change to the space!!! Bring on the party house! **★★★★★ — Genevieve Fadayomi, July 2019** > Hiring kristen to help make my new house a home was the best decision for my family. I will say I was a bit skeptical at first because my husband and I had a very different point of view on aesthetics and I wasn’t sure we could create a space that reflected both our styles. In her own words, Kristen is a chameleon. She was able to marry our styles in a way that we could not have done ourselves. From the layout, to the selected pieces, responsiveness to all our questions, and managing the budget, Kristen made the process seamless (actually fun!) She is a true professional and I thank her for bringing our space to life so beautifully. I would recommend Benavides Design House 100%. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you so much Genevieve!! We really appreciate you and thank you for taking the time to give us such a sweet review! So glad you are ALL enjoying your new space! **★★★★★ — Michele Herman, July 2019** > Trust your gut! I decided to go with Benevides Design House for help with my living room & dining room redesign because it "felt" right. I didn't even entertain the thought of meeting or even talking to any additional designers. And thank goodness for that. Kristen took my dark, small-ish space and helped me transform it into the pretty, welcoming, and open space that I've been craving (but had NO idea how to bring to fruition on my own). She listened to me, respected my budget, entertained my emails when I second-guessed myself (note to self: ALWAYS trust Kristen!), and stayed profession & so darn likable through it all! I stare at the transformation daily & just smile, smile, smile. Can't wait to start tackling further home projects with BDH! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Aaaah! Cute pic Michele! Thank you so much for your sweet review! Best part of our job is when our designs change the way someone really lives in their space! So happy you are happy!!! :) Kristen **★★★★★ — Wendy Fenske, June 2019** > We operate a floor refinishing and cleaning business, and are pleased to work together on projects that Kristen and Oscar are involved with. Their creativity and style is refreshing, elegant, simplistic, traditional and modern all in one. A tag team, clients who are lucky enough to work with them get the best of both worlds, meaning architectural design, and style with one call. I think it is wonderful that they offer renderings so clients call see their vision. Also, it is nice that they have proven contractors they work with to assure proper execution and desired results. So in the end they get a whole team of folks from start to finish that will bring their ideas to life for the benefit of the client. Kristen and Oscar are a must! **★★★★★ — Lori Fifis, June 2019** > I cannot say enough great things about Kristen and Oscar! They were Exactly what our home project needed. The professional pair worked so well with our general contractor. The knowledge and expertise they bought forth to help create spaces, move spaces, and design spaces was second to none! Our project included bathrooms, a from scratch laundry room, butler pantry, and over 5 rooms with flooring, lighting, and furnishings. They were very organized with their timelines, accessible, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. Kristen was very conscious of our budget as well. They offer a 3D rendering option, which was key for us to see the spaces with our picks. I highly recommend Kristen and Oscar, they are awesome, genuine people, who have their clients best interest at heart. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Lori, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being such fantastic clients and for such a nice review. It has been our pleasure working with you and so great to see your family start to use and enjoy your home as you are meant to! Here's to making many memories in your new space! Kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — HU-924091622, June 2019** > My husband and I were born and raised in NC and recently relocated to NJ from CA. We wanted to design our bathroom to keep with our southern “farmland” roots but mix that with our CA spa retreats feel. We sought out Benavides Home Design to help us with our vision and they certainly exceeded our expectations. Starting with the 3D rendering Oscar created for us to give a visual of what the finished goal would reveal, to having everything we needed to make our contractor process run seamlessly. They rose to every architectural and design challenge of this high tech, spa like bathroom and have personal attention to detail every step of the way. They have helped us create a home we love coming home to, and one that most certainly will make an easier resell in the future. I cannot recommend Oscar and Kristen enough and will most definitely use them for future projects on our home. **★★★★★ — Christine Chamoun, April 2019** > When my husband and I decided to open a small restaurant in Medford, we sought out Benavides Design House. There is a lot to consider when it comes to restaurant design. Kristen and Oscar listened to our ideas and brought back a design that was in sync with our vision. They proved to be a team of true professionals, super creative and were great people to work with. We are so grateful for their expert advice, for how they went above and beyond from the beginning with their close attention to detail. Their beautiful 3D renderings served as a visual to guide us and will give future customers a sneak peek of our place. We have a high standard and expected nothing less than perfection on this project and Kristen and Oscar delivered big time. We would highly recommend them for your home or commercial project. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Christine, thank you for choosing BDH! We can't wait for the grand opening of the restaurant- Oscar and I will be first in line! Wishing you all the success in your exciting venture and grateful to be a part of it! -Kristen and Oscar **★★★★ — Kurt Hammerstein, Jan. 2019** > If you have the opportunity to work with Benavides Design House you should consider yourself lucky. > Kristen and Oscar are both powerhouses in Interior Design, planning, budgeting and execution. I can’t say enough good things about my experiences with them. Each challenge was overcome efficiently and quickly which kept my project moving forward. I always knew where I was in the process and they kept me up to date in terms of billing and scheduling. When I am ready to tackle the bedrooms I am going back to BDH. **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > We are lucky to have you Kurt! Thank you so much!!! - Kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — taylorl979, Dec. 2018** > It was such a pleasure to work with Oscar and Kristen! We reached out to them in the very early stages of planning for 2 different projects in our home: to re-envision the exterior facade of our home to include an extra window and a portico, and to convert a screened in porch to a sunroom. Kristen was always very fast to respond, polite and kind. Oscar met with us on several occasions to walk through our home to hear our initial wishes and to then walk through the spaces with us and a contractor to fine tune our design options and his plans for the spaces. Oscar was extremely knowledgeable of construction requirements necessary to transform these spaces in our home. We appreciated his patience and flexibility as we sometimes changed our minds during the design process. The visual renderings they provided were beautiful as well as helpful for my husband who often needs to see something to envision the end product. We look forward to moving forward with contractors to develop the budget to make their renderings come to life in our home! Highly recommended! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you so very much for your review, we look forward to seeing the completed build! Glad to be able to help you visualize what your home can do! -Kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — Bob Walters, Dec. 2018** > Such a pleasure to work with. They incorporated many of our ideas with thier outstanding artristy and experience. Would highly recommend them to anyone. **★★★★★ — Jennifer Cawley-Black, Oct. 2018** > Benavides design team helped us design our second story addition and we are so excited to make their vision our realty! We are just about to begin the addition so I will have to add photos when it’s complete, but they worked tirelessly with my ideas and FEMA’s requirements for coastal homes. It was not an easy tightrope walk but they were patient and accommodating and ultimately made my dreams a realization. So very excited to see the final product finished! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Thank you for your nice review Jennifer and for trusting your house to BDH! So excited for your sweet family's new adventure! - Kristen and Oscar **★★★★★ — medevry, Oct. 2018** > This husband and wife team are amazing! They have unbelievable talent and are so personable. Benavides Design House turned our unfinished basement into a beautiful space complete with an art room for the kids, spare bedroom, entertainment room, pool table/game room and a wine cellar wall. They did renderings for us ahead of time so that we could really see what our space would look like. They sat down with us and made sure we were comfortable and got to know our style before they made recommendations. They were flexible enough to put up with our last minute change of heart on a few decisions. They were also very responsive to our calls and emails throughout the process. Plus when we first moved to the South Jersey area, we paid almost double the hourly fee for a designer so we consider BDH to be very competitively priced. You can not go wrong with this talented pair!! **Comment from Benavides Design House:** > Mary, thank you to you and Andrew for being great clients and even better friends. Your continued support of our new business is so appreciated and we are so thriled all your family and friends are loving the new Basement! Including us! :) Kristen and Oscar ## Selected projects - [The Whole House Glow Up](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-whole-house-glow-up-pj-vj~7645604) - Location: Voorhees Township, NJ - Photos: 30 - [Kitchen Design for Life's Best Moments](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-design-for-life-s-best-moments-pj-vj~7645502) - Location: Pilesgrove, NJ - Photos: 11 - [Sleek and Serene](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sleek-and-serene-pj-vj~7645243) - Location: Pilesgrove, NJ - Photos: 14 - [La Cornue Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/la-cornue-kitchen-pj-vj~6774148) - Location: Medford, NJ - Photos: 9 - [High Drama, High Luxury](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/high-drama-high-luxury-pj-vj~7645674) - Location: Shamong, NJ - Photos: 14 - [Home is Where the Hearth is...](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/home-is-where-the-hearth-is-pj-vj~7645478) - Location: Moorestown, NJ - Photos: 6 - [Soak, Relax, Repeat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/soak-relax-repeat-pj-vj~7645469) - Location: Moorestown, NJ - Photos: 8 - [Moorestown Kitchen and Dining Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/moorestown-kitchen-and-dining-renovation-pj-vj~7645463) - Location: Moorestown, NJ - Photos: 12 - Description: black and white kitchen, lacanche range, black lacanche, lacanche fontenay, hickory floor, black and gold hood, metal hood, visual comfort, waterstone faucet, galley sink, oceanside glass mosaic - [The Zen & Zellige Bath Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-zen-and-zellige-bath-project-pj-vj~7645663) - Location: Evesham, NJ - Photos: 13 - [Less is More](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/less-is-more-pj-vj~6612926) - Location: Moorestown, NJ - Photos: 9 - [Work From Home, Work In Style](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/work-from-home-work-in-style-pj-vj~7645495) - Location: Moorestown, NJ - Photos: 3 - [Graceful Gathering Spaces](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/graceful-gathering-spaces-pj-vj~7645658) - Location: Cherry Hill Township, NJ - Photos: 3 - [Where Modern Meets Timeless](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/where-modern-meets-timeless-pj-vj~7645246) - Location: Pilesgrove, NJ - Photos: 10 - [Luxury from the Ground Up](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/luxury-from-the-ground-up-pj-vj~7645512) - Location: Pilesgrove, NJ - Photos: 22 - [The Noir Butterfly Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-noir-butterfly-room-pj-vj~7645669) - Location: Pilesgrove, NJ - Photos: 2 - [The First Impression](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-first-impression-pj-vj~7645702) - Location: Pilesgrove, NJ - Photos: 5 - [Serenity in White](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/serenity-in-white-pj-vj~7645692) - Location: Medford, NJ - Photos: 10 - [Family Friendly](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/family-friendly-pj-vj~6442013) - Location: Haddonfield, NJ - Photos: 10 - [Sit or Tread Home Office](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sit-or-tread-home-office-pj-vj~6774181) - Location: Medford, NJ - Photos: 4 - [Serious Soak](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/serious-soak-pj-vj~6774172) - Location: Medford, NJ - Photos: 6 [See all 60 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/benavides-design-house-pfvwus-pf~129230884) ## Video - [Company video](https://player.vimeo.com/external/1026506849.m3u8?s=608a88cecf86b55eccfe5ff6af9e06173745f531&oauth2_token_id=1384357804) ## Frequently Asked Questions **What types of interior design projects do you specialize in (full-home, single room, remodel support)?** We specialize in a wide range of residential projects, from full-home new constructions and major renovations to reimagining single rooms.
