### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Arcs & Sparks, inc., March 2019**

> We worked with Maria Elena and her team on the installation of several high end chandeliers for a client of hers recently.  Throughout the process they were very thorough and professional.  Maria Elena was very clear with her instructions and expectations for the installation.  We appreciated working with a team who puts service first as we do with our own company!

**★★★★★ — Maria dlT, April 2016**

> Maria Elena Holguin, licensed Interior Designer, is very easy to work with.  She is always available and eager to help.  Maria Elena took the necessary steps to thoroughly understand my needs and taste of how I wanted my kitchen and two bathrooms to be, and she centered her design to meet them better than I dreamed of.  Her renditions are very impressive.  The first reaction of everyone who enters my home now is, " Wow! " I highly recommend Holguin Interiors / Maria Elena Holguin.

**★★★★★ — slcampa, July 2014**

> We hired Holguin Interiors to remodel our kitchen and family room.  They were professional, on time and on budget.  We were very happy with the the results.  They provided 3 different design options and the one we picked was perfect.  The kitchen is beautiful, modern and clean.  The subcontractors that they worked with were friendly and kept the construction area clean.  I highly recommend.

The calm blues she selected give me serenity, and the pops of color add a touch of happiness. to the space. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to surround themselves with beauty.

**★★★★★ — gladysdiaz, Feb. 2014**

> Maria Elena designed the set for a 3-day event we held for women. Her design completely captured the sofisticated, feminine, and at-home feel we wanted. In addition, Maria went above and beyond to secure the furniture and the delivery and pick-up, which would have cost us thousands of dollars for almost nothing!

**★★★★★ — carole4277, Nov. 2013**

> I have recently had the pleasure of working alongside Maria Elena Holguin on a very extensive remodeling project in Coral Gables.  Besides being invaluable to the owner, she staged the home prior to it be listed by me for sale.  She had the home photographed and we planned a very extensive event to introduce the property to the community.  It was a huge success.  Thanks to Ms. Holguin's fine work, we received 2 offers within one week, sold the home for almost full price and closed within 30 days.  Everyone was ecstatic.  Ms. Holguin was extremely professional.  I have subsequently referred her to other clients and we are working on another project together.  I highly recommend her.

**★★★★★ — Commune Design for Living, Aug. 2013**

> Maria Elena is highly organized and professional.  Her talents shine through her designs.  I have collaborated with her with clients and vendors and she shows patience with clients while listening closely to their needs.  I highly recommend her for any design projects.
