**★★★★★ — Masai Troutman, July 2025**

> Lorna and team did an excellent job with my commercial office building interior design.  One of my goals was to have a modern, business, successful, tech friendly, and energetic design.  The transformation of the conference room and kitchenette into collaborative, attractive, and functional spaces will benefit my development team and clients.  Its a win having LORNA GROSS Interior Design partner with You on your project!

**★★★★★ — M&B K, Nov. 2017**

> We have had the pleasure of working with Lorna and her team over the past year to design the main floor of our 4000 square foot new construction town home. While we interviewed several designers, we knew from the very first meeting Lorna would be our designer. She exhibited such a high degree of professionalism, warmth and attentiveness that we knew we wouldn't find a better match. As we built our first home together, Lorna and her team took the time to learn what was important to us from a mix of travel/ cultural influence to casual elegance with a bit of flare to space that exudes a calming warmth; reflect that in our design; and help us navigate our own minor 'crises' along the way.  Throughout Lorna was always engaged, easily accessible and responsive. The result is that we now have a beautiful, warm space that is perfect for entertaining and relaxing at home. We absolutely love our space and have yet to encounter a guest that hasn't commented on how amazing everything fits together. We simply couldn't be happier and hold LGID in the highest esteem. In fact, Lorna has become a part of our family. More remarkably, that seems to be as important to her practice as it is to us. We enjoyed working with her so much that we will be starting a follow on project in the coming month!

**★★★★★ — Cheryl Chenault Interiors, Inc., Sept. 2017**

> An intimate gathering of designers in NYC provided more than a fresh perspective on the business of interior design; I found a trusted colleague and friend. Over many years since then, we've shared and sharpened each other's business practices while enjoying educational and design related travel adventures. Lorna is a delight! Her discerning eye, inspiring attitude and genuine concern for detail brings about an elegant reflection of her client's aesthetic. She has the gift of visualization and her expertise lies in her ability to present curated solutions tailored for each project. Rest assured that you're in experienced hands with Lorna. She employs sound business practices, an engaging and creative design process and works only with well-respected vendors and tradespeople. If you have the fortunate opportunity to be one of her clients, you'll be blessed with an interior you love and an experience to remember.

**★★★★★ — alexsharon01, March 2015**

> Lorna brought the magic to several rooms of my new home.  The design definitely delivered a wonderful style.  I was extremely happy with the professionalism and quality of work.

**★★★★★ — hrm3504, July 2014**

> Originally hired Lorna Gross to design our living room .  As it turned out , we decided to build a two story addition and Lorna  patiently worked with us throughout the entire process.  She worked with the architect on the design, including room arrangement and functionality.  During the construction phase she worked patiently  with the builder on placement of  lighting, window functionality and other details I would have never taken into consideration.  Lorna helped with product selection for fixtures, flooring, color,  doors and hardware and furnishings.  We are very pleased with the end product..
>  Lorna is creative in her design, a great listener, and expects only the highest quality from her vendors.   We highly  recommend her.

**★★★★★ — randiereilly, Nov. 2012**

> I first interacted with Savant Interior Design as an executive committee member for a design show house. I was impressed by their level of professionalism and the quality and transformative nature of their design work. Their room was probably the most challenging in the house. The finished product was a totally updated, elegant yet inviting space. Every time I have the pleasure of working with them, I always see a constant commitment to excellence.

  - Description: DC Design House 2012 to benefit Children's National Hospital. This study was originally a dark cramped paneled room. By using color,lighting, and sophisticated fabrics and furnishings we managed to transform a dull foreboding space into a warm inviting environment for working and retreating. This cozy study abounds in texture and is the ideal place to become enthralled in reading a great book, or writing on for that matter.

**Q: what was the couch in the photo?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I like the high back and comfy appearance

A: The couch is Hickory Chair.

**Q: fireplace details** *(in Photo Questions)*

I really like the fire place.  Can you share the information?

A: Hi Marylou, The fireplace was custom built with the home, and it features a black granite surround. We then added the paint and geometric Candice Olsen wallpaper to either side of it. Best, Lorna

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

Where can I find the picture?

A: Hi there, thanks for your question. This is actually an antique tribal necklace that is framed to look like art.  -LG

**Q: I love the lucite table.  What size and mfg. please?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi Judy, thank you for your comment. This great table is the Bernhardt Annelise table. It is unfortunately no longer available, but they do have other lucite tables in their collection.
Best, Lorna

**Q: What is the paint color on the walls?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi Joanmarie,
The knotty pine wood paneling was in dire need of an update as you can see from the "Before" photo!
I used Farrow & Ball's \#226 Joa's White which brightened the room.
Thanks,
Lorna

**Q: manufacturer of the chairs** *(in Photo Questions)*

Just wondering if you might be able to share the manufacturer of the chairs at the end of the bed.

A: Hi Karoline, thanks for your interest. These chairs are by Bernhardt, and have a custom fabric applied, with nailhead detail.
Best, Lorna
