He helped design, coordinate, and plan our kitchen, living room, attic and whole house project. He was flexible when it came down to budgets and he was responsive with our design changes. He worked well with our contractor and helped get excellent results. We will definitely use him again for our next project. We are happy with his work and his style. **★★★★★ — Tim Farr, May 2015** > I had never worked with a design firm before engaging Hermogeno Designs to assist in topping off a kitchen and bath remodel with a full-home makeover. Unclear on my goals and without a specific budget, I was gracefully led through an intake process that identified how I lived my life and how I wanted to use my home for the future. The design concepts that were presented as a result captured my aspirations, and the design styles challenged my own aesthetic approaches. Just what you would engage a design professional to do! > > From design details through execution, I found Hermogeno Designs easy to work with and professional in every regard. The final design is a combination of the designer's vision and the client's realization of how they would live in the finished space. It's a conversation. What I now know was that through the conversation two-way learning takes place…the client learns how the design details add up to the complete picture while the designer learns more fully what the client is willing to consider (and even to push the envelope sometimes) and how they live the details of their life. The result is both beautiful and practical. > > The project was completed in a timely manner, and the budget was always known. Everything was completed to my satisfaction. And several years on, the design has met the test of time…still a beautiful set of rooms that I enjoy fully year-round. I would not hesitate to recommend Hermogeno Designs to anyone desiring a beautiful setting to share with family and friends. **★★★★★ — lucyjunior65, March 2015** > Hermogeno Designs assisted us in our remodel of two bathrooms and a master bedroom. Mark was invaluable in connecting us to valuable resources, and gave us his insight on interior design. At the beginning we had no idea what design style, textures or colors we wanted. He was very patient with us and provided many different ideas and samples to review. He even took us to several tile and carpet stores to look at samples, firsthand. The number of possibilities was daunting, but Mark narrowed down our choices to a manageable few. In the end, we feel very comfortable with the choices we made. > > For us, this was a big project. Without the help of Hermogeno Designs we could not have completed this project, nor would we have achieved the outstanding results. We will enjoy our new bathrooms and bedroom for many years!! ## Selected projects - [Ultimate Men's Club Interior](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ultimate-men-s-club-interior-pj-vj~936) - Location: san francisco, CA - Photos: 6 - Description: The owner of this 1908 Edwardian flat in San Francisco, had already lived in the home for 20 years with only updating the necessary electrical and plumbing to comply with modern standards.

A: Hi there. The floor is a waterproof laminate from Switzerland called Dream Home Ultra 2X0 Misty Morning Oak from Lumber Liquidators. It's thick with a slight wood feel texture. The only thing we didn't like were the stairnosing so we had to color match those. Hope this helps. **Q: What is the name of countertop quartz?** *(in Photo Questions)* Love this one too! A: The countertop is Pental Surfaces Pentalquartz Avenza. **Q: What is the name of backsplash?** *(in Photo Questions)* I'm getting Laza and love the backsplash. A: Thank you for the interest. The backsplash is made up of a ceramic pencil trim from Floor & Decor (at bottom on top of countertop), carrara marble and ceramic chair rail by MSI on top. **Q: What material/color are the bath countertops?** *(in Photo Questions)* Thanks! A: Hi there. we used MSI Calacatta Laza quartz for the bathroom countertops, shower curb top and the inner frame and sill of the shower niche. **Q: Outlet covers** *(in Photo Questions)* What is the brand and source of the mirrored outlet covers? A: The mirror and the covers were fabricated by a custom glass company that I found out is now out of business. If you are in the Los Angeles area I can refer you to a company I now use. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-06.*
