Caroline came recommended by another building designer in the San Francisco area who remodeled my in-laws' condo there. This person knew Caroline through conferences they had attended together and was familiar with her work. We called her and she drove up from San Diego to our house to meet us. I was immediately struck by her friendliness, artistic vision, and exquisite eye for detail and observation. It didn't take us long to realize we had found our designer. > > I don't know how we would have managed our remodel without her. It was one of the most daunting and arduous tasks we'd ever undertaken and we had no experience with remodels. Caroline guided us through it all. She listened to what we wanted and balanced it out with her own artistic vision and experience. She took measurements of the entire house by hand. She sketched, drew, created digital representation, asked us for input, tangled with the city of Los Angeles, pushed our plans through, took us to meet vendors and select materials, and helped us select the best possible contractor for the job. She visited the site and kept the contractors on their toes. > > We live in a historical area of Los Angeles and in a high-risk fire zone. This makes pulling permits and getting designs approved a bureaucratic nightmare. Caroline got it done. Not only is she an artist but a tough cookie and a professional who knows her business. She stuck with us through the difficult times. I hope she knows how much we appreciate it. > > We adore our forever-home and it could not be more beautiful or serene. Our 3 and 7 year old boys, our family, and our friends could not agree more. **★★★★★ — Angela Sinno, Feb. 2019** > I was very pleased with Ms. Veermans work. She was very professional, prompt, available and friendly. Easy to talk to, open to my suggestions and quite helpful with advice on all my concerns. She had great ideas with practical applications and was also very helpful with choosing colors. I felt very comfortable working with her. The end result was a success! **★★★★★ — Wes Udwin, Feb. 2019** > Caroline is an incredibly talented and professional designer. We couldn't be happier with her creativity and problem solving solutions in the design of our dream home in Encinitas, CA. Our project had several potential challenges with the limitations of remodeling an existing house, but with her vision and experience, we were able to create a beautifully constructed home with attention to detail, open and naturally lit living spaces, all within our modest budget. We recommend Caroline to anyone building or remodeling their homes, and we tell everyone how easy she made the permitting process, and absolutely delivered a work of art in the design of our space. **★★★★★ — Brent Dils, Jan. 2019** > We had plans drawn up for our once in a lifetime major remodel. When I asked my wife if she was excited, she realized that what the architect had designed wasn't really what she wanted, he was very difficult to communicate with, and didn't really listen to her. I had recently worked with Caroline on a couple of her projects as a contractor and was impressed with her detail. We contacted Caroline and after consulting with my wife and seeing our drawings her comment was, "these plans don't include any of the components or style that you are describing on your wish list". Long story short, Caroline "listens". She then helped us end up with an amazing home that reflects what we wanted. Caroline is detailed and patient listener who never talks over you. She does beautiful detailed designs and my wife and I are so happy that we were able to get help from Caroline. **★★★★★ — Maureen O'Hara, Jan. 2019** > I have hired Caroline twice now. Excellent jobs. Caroline met with us and listened to what we wanted, then produced beautiful sketches of what she thought would work. When we approved she produced technical drawings with detailed specs that were excellent for the contractors. When a glitch occurred (a purchased window didn't work) she corrected it immediately. Projects were on time and at budget. I will hire her for our next job. **★★★★★ — Rick Reid, Jan. 2019** > I have known Caroline for many years and can’t think of nother Design Professional that cares as much for her clients as she does. Caroline is not only a superb designer but an amazing water color artist. Her preliminary drawings for her clients bring the project to life and the completed job actually represents what the drawings showed int he beginning. **★★★★★ — Jeff Healey, Jan. 2019** > Caroline Veerman is extremely talented and a pleasure to work with. We have successfully completed several project with her firm. I highly recommend her services. **★★★★★ — Char Geary, Jan. 2019** > Caroline created the design for our remodel project. Her ability to listen to our thoughts and ideas, and then transform them into exactly what we wanted was amazing. Her attention to detail, her creativity and her vision are beyond compare. In addition to creating the design she worked closely (and effectively) with the contractor to ensure that the results were perfect. I wish I could give her more than five stars! **★★★★★ — krystal meier, Jan. 2019** > We used Caroline as our designer and consultant for our Master suite addition, which included adding a bathroom and modifying another existing room (office). Caroline is thoughtful and listens to your needs and input while offering her own expertise. She worked smoothly with our contractor. He loved having her input! > She is detail oriented. Our project came in on budget and on time. Whenever a glitch came up (which always will) she took care of it in a timely manner and followed through with the others involved. > Caroline also has the knowledge of "green" options. She gives you these options and the pros and cons of each. I would never do a construction job without her. She will take your stress away. She worries about the details so you don't have to. **★★★★★ — Christiane Armstrong, Jan. 2019** > We hired Caroline to help us with remodeling design ideas for our home. Caroline is very personable, a good listener, very engaged and came up with innovative ideas. Her plans are very detailed and thorough. Throughout the process Caroline was very communicative and flexible and remained highly enthusiastic. We enjoyed working with Caroline very much and highly recommend her to anyone looking for design input that is unconventional, practical and higly aesthetical. **★★★★★ — Quynh Dao, Jan. 2019** > Caroline helped us with a complete home remodeling to a "Spanish style" home that we always wanted. The project turned out beautiful and we were so happy with it. Caroline paid to all the details and guided the contractor to make sure that the crew did everything perfectly, which we really appreciated. I would highly recommend Caroline for her creativity, listening to her client's needs and her dedication to make sure the project turns out perfect. **★★★★★ — Olga Felan-Dils, Jan. 2019** > Caroline Veerman was absolutely wonderful to work with on our major home remodeling project. First, she asked me what design elements I liked and wanted to have incorporated into my project. And she actually listened to my ideas! Caroline produced the most fabulous designs for us. I am thoroughly pleased with the results of our project, thanks to Caroline's Veeman's designs. ## Selected projects - [Full House Renovation I Light & Bright](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/full-house-renovation-i-light-and-bright-pj-vj~2900824) - Location: Encinitas, CA - Photos: 19 - Description: Transformed the unused Living and Dining Rooms with opening the walls with arches for light & brightness.

It’s such a nice neutral backdrop for everything else you’ve created. Thank you. A: Hello Ellen, I apologize for overlooking your question from March! The like this neutral stucco color as well! I believe the homeowner had a custom color made. With that, I do not know the paint brand or have access to the color name. It does have a light greenish undertone which may not come through on the photo. I'm sorry I cannot be of more help. I hope you found a color that suited you. **Q: Bathroom** *(in Photo Questions)* Really great tile and vanity used here. A: Thank you Design Everest! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
