This is the first time she has done a total remodel of the kitchen in our home and she knocked it out of the park!! She had a vision for our kitchen as soon as she came into our home. The attention she shows to detail is second to none. Eva has a passion for her work and it shows. > I have gotten so many compliments on how great our new kitchen looks and I owe it all to Eva. > Thank you Eva!! ### All 36 reviews **★★★★★ — Susan Cotton, Dec. 2025** > Eva and her team transformed my condo into a modern, gracious and comfortable environment that really reflects my life. Eva really understands how to get more from all of the space you have - my kitchen, bathrooms and living areas are the same square feet but they all give me so much more than I had. Especially in the kitchen where my counter and cabinet space doubled. But it was a lot more than that - updating of the doors, removing crown molding, redoing the hardwood floors, adding light - this just made my place open up and feel 'right' for the city. And of course the quality and well designed furniture which she is known for made it all just beautiful. Eva's attention to detail and years of experience made the project easy for me. And the building said the workers were great and respectful to work with (and you know how important that is!). I am really thrilled by my new home :) **★★★★★ — AJ Frank, Dec. 2024** > Eva and her team (especially Elaine) are simply the best. They took on my project and were able to work with me to design something beyond my expectations, help me find the perfect pieces - including some really rare/hard to find art, and even find good deals/value! For example, there was a rug I fell in love with that was quite pricey and Eva was able to find a way to get the rug made for a much lower cost. Eva and Elaine were available whenever I needed them and were always supportive when I wanted to shift directions. > > I couldn't recommend Eva more highly - 10/10! **★★★★★ — First Last, Feb. 2024** > Eva has a fantastic eye. She designed a timeless kitchen layout for my 100 year old house. Years later, I still love it and regularly get compliments from guests. The perfect colors, the functional layout and cabinet design all work together to make the kitchen the center of my home. It's a testament to her considerable skill and experience. **Comment from Eva Quateman Interiors:** > Thank you so much for your beautiful words! It is so gratifying to hear. Much love- Eva **★★★★★ — Dani Houchin, Jan. 2023** > It was great working with Eva decorating my condo from scratch. She is so talented and also reasonable - she knows how to take value and cost into consideration, as well as beauty. I appreciated her ability to advocate for great design while accommodating my tastes and preferences. And, she's funny and fun. Love the team as well. **★★★★★ — HU-281182361, Jan. 2023** > Eva Quateman is simply brilliant. She comes up with designs that I could never even imagine and am constantly impressed by her ideas. I love that she listens and is willing to work with you to make your dream home come true. Truly, she made my home look fabulous and I’m grateful every day I walk into it. > > Her team is also great—very communicative, detail-oriented, kind and patient. We spent many months working on my home and they were always positive and helpful and made Eva’s vision come to life. > > I can’t recommend Eva Quateman Interiors enough!! **★★★★★ — Shelley, Dec. 2022** > I've worked with Eva on home design and update projects for 25 years. She brings a variety of design ideas to each project, helps us create the perfect overall design plan based on our interests/preferences and ensures the job is completed in the highest quality fashion. She has a real eye for the details that pull a room together and make it all work, speaks her mind if she thinks we are off base in terms of a particular design element or if the cost of something really isn't worth it. She also works with a great group of customer furniture and window treatment designers. I love every room she has ever worked with us on. **★★★★★ — Eleni Aravanis, Dec. 2022** > Gary and Eva are the most wonderful people and the most professional of their kind! > I worked with both of them for the renovation of my apartment and even though it wasn’t the easiest of jobs, I always felt confident that Gary would handle any situation that came up. The project was on a strict budget and Gary was instrumental in keeping within the budget requirements and always reminding me of it. > Eva’s solutions and ideas were amazing to say the least. > I would happily work with them again should the occasion arise! They are truly one of the best in Chicago!! **★★★★★ — bpenager, Dec. 2021** > Eva Quateman Interiors was referred to my wife and I as a designer option when seeking expertise to do a major home renovation project. After purchasing our dream home in need of significant updating, remodeling and furnishing; we sought out a designer that had the exceptional skillset to both counsel AND listen to our desires. In our vetting process, we met with several designers in which they either went the direction of whatever we asked them to do (to gain our business) or dictated the way they saw the project as needing to be based on their "expertise" regardless our wishes/budget. Eva is that rare person that has unparalleled excellence in interior design, the experience behind her to support her mastery, and the keen ability to hear your aspirations, combine it with her extraordinary vision and work together with her clients to come up with 'something better' than you may have otherwise imagined. > > In addition to her work ethic, character, no nonsense demeanor, and personality that lights up a room; Eva has an innate ability to see the whole broken down into its parts from the start. This 'begin with the end in mind' thought process impacts everything to the benefit of her clients. In our case, her vision not only enhanced our design and furnishing elements but our renovation project as a whole. From determining wall placement/closure, window removal/addition, complimentary style elements, color, and best material (wood, tile, stone, etc.) usage/options; she is able to provide guidance in manifesting your dream home from ideation to reality in far more ways than only interior design. > > In ending, Eva and her exceptional team take into consideration all that you'd like to accomplish, backs into it with realistic financial projections based on your budget and timeline, does it at a more than a fair cost, works tirelessly to bring it all to fruition and is fun as heck to work with. If you want the best of the best, honor integrity, work ethic, genius and excellence proven over decades; then Eva Quateman and her team are the best choice you could ever make. My wife and I are happy to provide our experience of her and her work firsthand if requested. You will not be disappointed! **★★★★★ — HU-618996263, Dec. 2021** > Eva is a joy to work with and fun to collaborate with. She is straight forward and keeps a project moving as expeditiously as possible. Also, she focuses on your vision and always is sensitive to your goals, whether that is style or budget or both. I highly recommend her talents and her team. **Comment from Eva Quateman Interiors:** > What a wonderful review! There's no name so we can't thank you directly, but thank you mystery client! **★★★★★ — James M, Dec. 2020** > Eva is wonderful to work with! > > As soon to be first time parents, we wanted to create a space that is baby friendly, while still maintaining some feeling of adult sophistication for our new condo. Eva was able to show us how to do this in a customized way and make the most out of the space we have. All the rooms were better than we hoped, but the baby’s room was much more than we planned. She designed it in a way that is fitting for a nursery, but in a unique way that still flows with the total design of the home. > > Two of the great perks of working with Eva are: > > 1\) She is along for the journey. She continues to work with building your design as you and your family grow or go through changes. > > 2\) Eva’s husband has a contracting business for your renovations, and they work together to ensure your design is functional as well as aesthetic. **★★★★★ — Gary Weintraub, Dec. 2020** > Highly recommend Eva! Our townhome project included significant design and renovation work with full master bathroom renovation, custom furniture, and much more. Eva was referred by my wife's parents who have worked with her for many years. My wife and I are absolutely thrilled with the work Eva did for us. It was super helpful to have Eva as our interior designer and her husband Gary as our General Contractor since they worked very closely on the design and renovation work. Like most creative experts, Eva has a strong point of view and she was absolutely right about every single thing she recommended. Eva and her team are fabulous. It has been a pleasure working with Eva Quateman Interiors and we will definitely work with them for our next project! **★★★★★ — Travis M., Dec. 2020** > Eva helped us with our rehab of an american four square originally built in 1904. She helped us balance classic building elements with modern design in a seamless manner. Eva’s eye for quality and creativity ensured we got the most out of our modest budget. Extremely happy with our house and we owe it all to Eva!! **★★★★★ — HU-470645075, Jan. 2020** > They take care of everything. You don’t have to do anything other than decide what you want done. All the work is done and they are there to manage every aspect of the job and supervise any installation and receipt of the furniture. **★★★★★ — HU-470645075, March 2019** > They take care of everything. You don’t have to do anything other than decide what you want done. All the work is done and they are there to manage every aspect of the job and supervise any installation and receipt of the furniture. **★★★★★ — Jean Dennis, Sept. 2017** > Eva Quateman is a consummate professional. She has a keen eye for design, proportion and style. I have worked with Eva on two projects and find her an absolute delight. I am convinced my home sold in 2017 as quickly as it did and commanded the price we wanted because of Eva's many contributions. She is a direct but easy going person with a consistently positive nature, budget aware and value-oriented where necessary. She really listens to her clients and is more than fair when it comes to billing matters. The first project was the entire remodel of a 20-year-old Larry Booth home which included new floors, 3.5 baths, the kitchen and more. It was absolutely stunning--with great "bones." I am seriously grateful for her help. I recently re-engaged Eva to help me finish a new apartment. She did an amazing job with my art and re-purposing select pieces from my former home. My new home has a more relaxed yet elegant vibe, and Eva quickly adapted to my wishes for a new look. Her contributions have been priceless. **★★★★★ — Andrew Nastoff, Sept. 2017** > We discovered Eva Quateman when we hired her Husband (Gary Quateman-Q Construction) to rebuild the interior of our home after a pipe burst on our top floor and substantially destroyed the interior of our home. As we went through this emotional six month ordeal, we met Eva when we sought her opinions on selecting paint colors, wallpaper and new furniture/rugs to replace what had been destroyed. Eva was able to interpret our own ideas and incorporate them into a far superior finished product. Eva is, by far, the best designer with whom I have ever worked. Her eye for color, detail and space is unreal. She was able to take existing furniture that we owned and incorporate it into an overall concept that was supplemented and enhanced by her own furniture and fabric selections. In the end, we knew that we could never have made our home as beautiful as it looked once Eva was done. Shortly after Eva completed her work, we learned we had to relocate to the east coast due to a change in employment. Our house sold in fifteen days, largely due to the dramatic effect of Eva's design. Once we purchased our new house, we continued our relationship with Eva through email, phone and FaceTime contact. She is currently helping us make the new furniture we bought for our Chicago home look just as fabulous in our new home. She spent several hours on a FaceTime call with us just yesterday, getting a feel for the flow and structure of our house, recommending placement of our existing furniture and recommended new pieces to enhance them in our new space. We are also planning to renovate our basement into an in-law suite for our parents and Eva assisted us in visualizing a beautiful floor plan and will assist us going forward in seeing this additional project to its conclusion. We anticipate Eva Quateman being an important part of every future decision we make with regard to our home decorating and design. We have absolute confidence in her and no hesitation in giving her our highest recommendation. **★★★★★ — jillgordon111, Sept. 2016** > I just finished a big renovation of mY vintage apartment and Eva and her team did amazing work to get it done on time and looking fabulous. She has strong opinions but wonderful taste. And she really knows what she is doing. Working with her makes you feel like you are in the hands of a real professional. Her aesthetic is expensive but tasteful so be prepared to spend big bucks. But it's worth it. She's great. **★★★★★ — Diana Hall, Sept. 2016** > I loved working with Eva; She has a fantastic sense of design and proportion. Eva immediately understood that I wanted something classic with a twist and helped me to achieve a look that did not resemble everyone else's. She explained the pricing to me during the project, educating me throughout the entire design process on our different options. I would highly recommend Eva and her fantastic team! **★★★★★ — kcrane30, Sept. 2016** > This is the fourth project I have worked on with Eva Quateman Interiors and Q Construction to include: a large midwestern home, a condo in Mexico, a Chicago city apartment build out and a Florida cottage remodel. Each project has been thought out expertly, Eva has a wonderful eye for details. She will never stop until the job is done correctly and I have been greatly satisfied with each end result. Two thumbs up! **★★★★★ — Peggy White, Sept. 2016** > Eva is a true professional. She is creative, talented and reliable. Her sense of style and determination to “get every room just right” is a winning combination. She exceeded our expectations. **★★★★★ — Artmill Group, Dec. 2015** > I work with Eva Quateman Interiors quite often. We have a great professional relationship, where we just understand each other. Eva is very pleasant to work with and to the point. She is truly looking out for her clients artwork to ensure that it is presented with the same level of detail as the balance of her residential design. **★★★★★ — deborahhogan, Dec. 2015** > We started working with Eva over 10 years. She helped us decorate our entire house at that time. For the past year we have been working on a large, remodeling/construction project and Eva has helped us with essentially every selection for the house including all exterior finishes and colors as well as all interiors, including review of blueprints and ongoing input during the entire construction process. Eva has great taste but is also great at understanding our taste and how we want to live. She is also incredibly professional and responsive and we can always count on her advice. **★★★★★ — alpern, Nov. 2015** > Eva Quateman is absolutely amazing. She has helped us renovate/decorate our kitchen, powder room, master bedroom and master bath. We are working our way through the entire house renovation with her. She has amazing vision for each room and brings the whole thing to fruition. Our kitchen and family room area are outstanding - every person who enters the house comments on the beauty of the space and, even more importantly, it looks gorgeous while completely working for our family. **★★★★★ — towwow, May 2015** > I've used Eva for four homes, in Chicago and Los Angeles. The compliments from visitors never stops! She is so talented, ethical and a joy to work with. We are big art collectors and she works with all the art beautifully. Plus, our style leans more modern and eclectic and that presents no problem for her. She can do anything. Importantly, she is very decisive, which I appreciate from a timing stand point. She work with any budget and is especially good at redeploying existing items in a completely new way. Every home she has done for us has been selected for a magazine...even the place in LA that was mostly reusing a lot of things from Chicago with a few Eva perfect additions! **★★★★★ — minnygirl, Nov. 2014** > Eva has great taste. Everything she did for me turned out beautifully. If I was on the fence about something and Eva said it would be great, she was always right. It was great. Eva is also a pleasure to work with. The project becomes a really fun adventure. > Eva did a complete apartment for me and now she is doing a second one. e **★★★★★ — susanb2206, May 2014** > Midway through our major rehab project, we have been very favorably impressed with Eva Quateman Interiors, both in the capacity of coordinating with Q Construction in the layout of our apartment and of interior design. > > We have been fortunate in having Eva and her husband, Gary (Q Construction), working together on our project. They are a powerful team, each contributing a different vantage point and working synergistically with a shared sense of pride to achieve excellent results. Inspecting the construction progress regularly, Eva is attentive to every detail in design, showing an obvious sense of personal ownership for the end product. Since we are downsizing to a considerably smaller space, we highly appreciate Eva’s ability to conceptualize and maximize space so effectively. > > Concurrently, we have been working with Eva on the interior design, in which she has consistently demonstrated a creative flair for tasteful design choices, using only the highest-quality materials. She constantly exudes a contagious, positive energy that helps make the project truly enjoyable. While we are still a month or two away from project completion, we are excited at the beautiful choices in fabrics, furniture, etc., and have every confidence that we will love the end result. **★★★★★ — ssalins, Feb. 2014** > My wife and I hired Eva for interior design on our fabulous major rennovation, preservation and addition to one of the oldest homes in Highland Park, IL--from the 1860s--Victorian Italiante design. She was the third of fourth designer that we hired but we had no luck with the prior individuals. Eva was absolutely amazing--creative, great sources for everything, including antiques, her knowledge of appropriate furnishings, colors, design, etc was astounding, and we were totally in sync as to what we were envisioning. The project exceeded all expectations and we would recommend Eva and her company for any project, any type of interior, and any type of home. She also was a pleasure to work with and we try to stay in touch with her periodically. **★★★★★ — tcdillon950, Feb. 2014** > We have hired Eva Quateman and Q construction for projects in 3 separate homes. As a repeat client, clearly we are extremely happy with the work that has been performed on our behalf. More importantly, we find the principals, Eva and Gary, to always conduct themselves with the highest level of professionalism and integrity. The quality of the advice and the finished product is always first rate. We have recommended them to our friends and colleagues as well and we have never been disappointed. **★★★★★ — mpdipietro, Feb. 2014** > I hired Eva 6 years ago to help me design and decorate a remodel I was doing. Every inch of the house was touched and Eva helped me throughout the entire process. She has great ideas when it comes to floor plans and utilizing space. I showed her my plans from the architect and she had great ideas of how to tweak them to improve on the layout. > > Eva decorated my entire home and I still use her today. We have been adding beautiful things over the years. I love when she takes her east coast shopping trips and finds me cool things that are interesting and unusual. Eva has designed and had built many great pieces of furniture that look amazing in our home. > > Eva is great at what she does. **★★★★★ — rodin470, Feb. 2014** > Eva Quateman Interiors decorated and helped renovate my 2500 sq ft apartment in Evanston, Illinois. > Eva is creative with impeccable taste. She was very respectful of my budget. Gary Quateman of Q Construction had the experience and knowledge to facilitate the remodeling of my apartment. > All work was estimated accurately and completed in the projected time frame. > Eva and Gary Quateman are consummate professionals. **★★★★★ — cgfriedman1, Dec. 2013** > Eva Quateman was involved in every aspect of new home construction of about 10,000 square feet including design, space planning, furniture layout, furniture, furnishings and all finishes. Her taste, understanding of lifestyle and space, combined with her unusual gift of vision helped make a perfect design. In addition, her dedication and heart made for more than a job, but a personal endeavor where she aimed to please. Nothing was a problem; there was always a creative solution. Her staff was professional and always available which gave me full access whenever I had the need. Overall, it was an excellent experience with superior results. **★★★★★ — LAURA SMITH, Dec. 2013** > Eva Quateman is an enthusiastic and extremely competent professional who goes the distance to satisfy her clients with stunning interiors that are also livable. She is very creative and has a exquisite sense of design. > I hired Eva to redo two condos over the past two decades and the results were elegant, tasteful, unique and appropriate to each space and my lifestyle. If you want someone with a creative flair and a commitment to excellence, contact EQI for all your interior designs. You can expect professionalism, quality and magnificent results! **★★★★★ — gries9, Aug. 2013** > Eva listened carefully to what we envisioned for our apartment. We wanted a black and white color scheme with pops of color. She quickly sees how to plan and use space and is able to communicate her ideas with selections of pictures and fabrics. She and her team are very detail oriented down to the smallest accessory like a small button on the back of a chair. I really liked two fabrics - one very expensive and one more reasonable for the master bedroom. She used the expensive fabric on a little desk chair and the other on a sofa. She has very definite ideas and opinions but ultimately worked very hard to make certain both my husband and I were pleased and happy with selections in terms of style as well as comfort. She is easy to talk to and has a good sense of humor. From the start the team understood our timeline for completing the project and kept us on track to make decisions in order meet it. **★★★★★ — janoneill55, July 2013** > Eva Quateman Interiors is a fantastic company to work with. Eva's style is elegant and yet wonderfully livable! She has an uncanny gift of space planning which gives her the ability to make the most of every square inch she's working with. Eva truly listens and remembers her clients wants and concerns, and offers brilliant solutions to design issues. She is also personally a joy to work with. The added bonus of working with Eva and her staff is that her husband, Gary, is not only the business manager, but the owner of Q construction. Q construction has a core crew of tradesmen who are professional, fast, clean and can meet Eva and Gary's exacting standards. They are very aware of getting all of the work done, be it construction or design, completed as quickly as possible. I can't recommend Eva Quateman Interiors and Q Construction more. You won't be disappointed! **★★★★★ — cindyb54, April 2013** > In 2008 we made the decision to sell our home and move into a new-construction condo in the city. The actual move happened in 2012, so we had the pleasure of working with Eva Quateman and her team over the course of a few years. Eva did a fabulous job of helping us select which pieces from our home to update and take with us and also finding different uses for some of our favorite pieces. For instance, she suggested we use our antique secretary in the master bedroom as a TV cabinet. Because we bought new construction, Eva helped us finalize our floor plans and finishings with the developer. She suggested some changes, such as adding a wall between our kitchen and great room resulting in more kitchen cabinet space and a formal dining area vs. a counter area. Eva recognized our traditional decor preferences, and she selected fabrics, furniture and finishings that coordinated well with our antiques to create a beautiful and comfortable new home. Eva and her team were professional, friendly and attentive. It was an enjoyable experience working with the Eva Quateman team, and I would highly recommend Eva Quateman Interiors! ## Selected projects - [Coral Gables, Florida Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/coral-gables-florida-home-pj-vj~399659) - Location: Coral Gables, FL - Photos: 30 - Description: Beautiful whole-house redo in the Miami area.
