I hired Lorie to assist with the remodel, design and furnishing of our home. She listened to what I wanted and presented me with options beyond my imagination. She understood exactly what I was looking for and was very responsive and resourceful. She was able to use some of our existing more traditional furniture in her design and it blended together beautifully with the new & modern fresh look. She is both knowledgeable and talented. > I was very pleased with Lorie and would recommend her to anyone and would definitely hire her again. > Thanks for everything Lorie **Comment from LSDesign:** > Thank you, Wendi, for the kind words. It was a pleasure working with you and the outcome of your project brings me so much joy. I'm looking forward to continuing to work with you on your exterior! ### All 17 reviews **★★★★★ — Business\_Name\_Placeholder, June 2026** > I have partnered with Lorie on a number of projects. She is patient, organized, professional and knowledgeable. She listens to her clients and gently guides them through the design process, making sure that the end result is both functional and beautiful. > It is always a pleasure working with Lorie! **Comment from LSDesign:** > thank you, it's always a true pleasure to have your support ! **★★★★★ — JSB, May 2026** > Lorie struck the right balance between incorporating our preferences and bringing fresh, original perspectives to our whole home renovation in Menlo Park, CA. She has privileged relationships with an array of vendors, and brought those to bear for needs as varied as building four perfect custom upholstered chairs to sourcing our family's dining table (which we enjoy every single day.) The renovation came out better than we could have hoped for, and a large part of that success is due to the exquisite touches that Lorie provided. **Comment from LSDesign:** > I so enjoyed working with your family to further enhance your beautiful home! Thank you for entrusting in me to help customize your renovation, especially the living wall feature upon entering your home....wow, what a statement that turned out to be! **★★★★★ — Business\_Name\_Placeholder, May 2026** > Lorie at LS Design was an absolute pleasure to work with on refreshing my home. From the start, she came prepared with an abundance of creative design ideas and options, which made it easy to explore different directions without feeling overwhelmed. She then helped narrow everything down to a thoughtful set of final selections that truly felt right for my space. > > What really set Lorie apart was her meticulous attention to detail — every measurement was triple-checked, which made for seamless installations and a beautifully cohesive look throughout the living spaces. Nothing felt like an afterthought. > > On top of all that, Lorie has the warmest, most bubbly personality, and she makes the entire process feel effortless and fun. Whether your project is big or small, I would not hesitate to recommend her. She brings both the creativity and the care that every home deserves. **Comment from LSDesign:** > Thank you Lori, I also had such fun working with you to embrace your home with a beautiful refresh, hope you're enjoying the new and cohesive "look" **★★★★★ — Marilú, Sept. 2021** > Lorie of LSDesign provided us with design and project manager oversight for our kitchen remodel including the removal of two walls thus creating a beautiful open concept for us to enjoy. > Lorie was very thoughtful, conscientious and extremely patient during the entire process. She presented design ideas to us and was willing to listen to our feedback and discuss the options. She brought her years of experience and expertise to our project and it showed in the end result. > Her project manager skills were invaluable to us, especially when aspects of the construction went awry-she was right there to set things straight and get the remodel back on the right path. > We greatly appreciate all the time, effort and expertise she gave to our project. **Comment from LSDesign:** > Thank you Marilu and Dan for the thoughtful review. It was a true delight supporting your project...hope you're enjoying your beautiful view from your kitchen sink! **★★★★★ — anniejbarnett, Sept. 2021** > Lorie is great to work with. She is professional and extremely talented and pays attention to detail. She has good energy and a very easy demeanor. I love her style! **Comment from LSDesign:** > Thank you Annie! it's a true pleasure to work with you...the outcome is always amazing! **★★★★★ — karinska, Sept. 2020** > Years ago we were invited to a party at Lorie's house. I was so impressed by the simplicity, functionality and timeless beauty of her home. At that time I didn't know she was helping friends re-do their homes. > Many years later, we decided our home needed a re-fresh. I had remembered Lorie's home and how similar her tastes were to mine. By this time, Lorie had a full-on busy company, so we were excited she could help us! Lorie is very meticulous about work done in your home. Even to the point of arranging the wooden floor planks in our house!! She checks in quite a bit and expects you to get your homework done! She doesn't mess around!! But at the same time, very friendly! > We are very happy with the outcome of our home. The quality is outstanding. It is a modern home without being too sterile. Lorie can work with all different styles and budgets. We went over our budget, which I guess is quite common. Give Lorie a try! You won't be disappointed! **★★★★★ — Lisa Henricks, Aug. 2020** > Lori has an eye for clean, timeless, and simple but elegant style. She listens carefully and gears her design to the clients taste. Lori completely updated our guest cottage and is now working on a larger remodel to our main house. She is fun to work with and has a great attitude and work ethic. I would highly recommend Lori for her design services. **Comment from LSDesign:** > Thank you Lisa! It has been a true delight supporting your family's long-term design goals. Your remodel is going to be exquisite, and your guest house was a fun beginning! Very excited for you all. **★★★★ — Jeff Salazar, May 2020** > Lori took the time to understand our needs, and she also challenged us with bold new ideas. Given the creative process can be a bit nebulous at times, she spent plenty of time with our contractor to ensure our project t was flawlessly executed per our vision. **Comment from LSDesign:** > Jeff, such a thoughtful note! You and your wife truly are such wonderful people. Honored to partner with such an accomplished designer to further create the home of your dreams. > > Really appreciate your recognition in my mindful relationships with clients. Thank you again for trusting me, in taking this design challenge in my hands, to allow you ease and focus on other endeavors in your life during that time. Hope to cross paths again in the future. **★★★★★ — Dawn Moore Wilson, April 2017** > It is with great pleasure that I write this testimonial for Lorie Satzger. Lorie is an exceptional designer who is passionate and extremely knowledgeable about her work. My first experience with Lorie was 10+ years ago and she has exceeded my expectation on every job since. Because I’ve been fortunate to see her in action, I will continue to recommend Lorie to anyone that is looking to design/redesign.

Looking forward to assisting you with your upcoming renovations on your beautiful home. Hugs to the kiddos! **★★★★★ — tony rostron, March 2017** > In this big wide world of ours it is a pity, but it turns out that there are few designers that possess insight, sensitivity and immaculate taste when they go about their business. I believe Lorie lives those principles and therefore can't help but express them in all her endeavors ... she cares. **Comment from LSDesign:** > Your thoughtful compliment means so much, especially coming from such a talented designer as yourself! Thank you Tony! **★★★★★ — Mandy Montoya, March 2017** > Lorie is a consummate professional with a fantastic eye for design. I've worked with her on several projects and seen her work in many others.
