### Reviews

**★★★★★ — G. Fried Carpet & Design, Feb. 2017**

> The G. Fried Carpet Family has been working together with Michelle for probably almost a decade now, she is the picture of what a TRUE professional is.  Michelle has been such an asset to work for and with.  Michelle is sweet, kind, extremely organized and dedicated.  She has a wealth of knowledge from her many years of experience and it has truly been a pleasure to work with her for all these years and many years to come...

**★★★★★ — RJ Diva, Oct. 2016**

> I cannot express enough gratitude and praise for how Michelle listened to me, and delivered exactly what we wanted in the refresh of our home. We worked well together and she returned to our home as many times as was required to get the job done and to insure we were happy with the outcome of the project. Our refresh entailed no construction, and didn't seem like her largest project, but she treated me like she was designing our entire home. She's a true professional, her vendors are reliable and are also experts in their field. Her taste is superb and she is a very kind and polite person. Do not hesitate to call her. She will make your dream house, whether large or small, come true.

**★★★★★ — hannahasher, June 2016**

> When you start a project, the questions begin: how will I make all these decisions? How will I know what to do or what to pick or when? The answer is: Michelle Winick. My wife and I gutted our dated colonial with the hope and plan of completely updating the structure inside and out. We wanted a transitional look that had a young, modern feel that still remained true to some of our traditional tastes. Working with Michelle Winick was the best decision in our entire process. We interviewed three different decorators and even replaced one we had hired very early in the process. The fact is that calling Michelle a decorator understates her value. She helped review the contract with our builder and recommended several cost-saving (and time saving) ideas. She is a bright, easy to work with and no-none sense true professional. From the moment we broke ground, Michelle helped guide the entire vision and timing of the construction process working closely (and not in confrontation with) our builder. She had a vision for the house and together with my wife's input helped execute on that vision. Michelle is not obstinate and doesn't believe there is only one way to do things. She is all about customer service and has a very keen sense of space, colors, dimension, elegance and craft. From helping redesign elements of the architectural layout midway through construction to helping pick out quality materials from tile, paint and trim (especially!) she is the complete package. She made sure that the look, feel and flow of the house was consistent throughout. One of the other great things about Michelle is that she is economic and knows how to respect a budget. She knows when to spend and (and how) to save an owner money and did that for us many times. Beyond the structural, her taste in furniture, window treatments, carpetry and how to marry materials and texture with all the other elements of the house was once again beyond our expectation!! She worked weekend, nights and was always available to us.

**★★★★★ — Alexandra Kaplan, May 2016**

> Michelle helped us transform our home from a traditional style to transitional style during a major renovation. Her paint colors were absolutely perfect creating a smooth transition from the renovated area to existing area of home. Her choice of window treatments for every area were exactly what we needed and beautiful!! Furniture , accessories and carpeting choices perfect. She not only has a great eye but a pleasure to work with .

**★★★★★ — Palisade Furniture, May 2016**

> I have done many, many projects with Michelle. She is one of the best, most professional and talented designers I know and work with. She is incredibly talented and easy to work with. I highly recommend her.

**★★★★★ — jackief27, March 2016**

> Michelle was awesome to work with! She's thoughtful, detail oriented and very reliable. Not to mention talented. She was responsive and very helpful. Looking forward to another project.

**★★★★★ — Fabric Factory Studio, Dec. 2015**

> As the proprietor of Fabric Factory Outlet I have had the pleasure of working with Michelle in a professional capacity for the past six years.
> She is talented, organized, decisive, resourceful, and detail oriented. Among her many skills she is an accomplished colorist and very proficient in the selection of textile and surface designs.
> In my experience her clients are consistently satisfied throughout the entire design process and delighted with the outcome.

**★★★★★ — heesunminlee, March 2015**

> I worked with Michelle in choosing paint colors for my newly renovated home.
> She previously helped out my parents with paint colors years ago, and they are still in love with every color Michelle picked for them.  So I knew whom I was going to contact when it was time for me to paint my house.  She didn't disappoint me.  Michelle is so in tune with colors.  She picked out paint colors for the entire house ( it is a 4,500 sq feet home with 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms) in no time.  I am a very picky person who takes forever to make any decision, but with Michelle, everything was settled in less than 2 hours!  And I absolutely LOVE all the paint colors throughout the house!  Even though I only hired her for choosing paint colors, she gave me valuable advices on choosing floor stain and moulding/stair rail.  She also gave me useful information on where to get carpet, tile and others.  Michelle is not only talented, but also so pleasant to work with.  I would definitely give her a call for my next house project!

**★★★★★ — North Jersey Home Maintenance Group, Jan. 2015**

> Our company, NJHMG Construction, has worked with Michelle on several projects, and each time has been such a pleasure.  Michelle is very organized and professional to work with.  Every detail is thought out and planned before we begin a project.  She follows up with us on a regular basis to make sure the project is running on time, and is available for us when we have any questions.
>
> Each client has been extremely happy with the final result of the project, from the details of the selection of finishes to the completed product of the design.

**★★★★★ — Andrew Bank, Dec. 2014**

> Working with Michelle on NBC's "George to the Rescue" was an absolute pleasure. She's very passionate about her work and demonstrated her dedication throughout our special Little Falls, NJ project for a very deserving family. The whole GTTR team appreciated her commitment to the project and the everyone was thrilled with the results.

**★★★★★ — ECS Homes, March 2014**

> I've worked with Michelle for the last 5 years as an interior designer on all of my projects and each time she surprises me with her creativity. She is extremely professional in all of her approaches and provides the client with a genuine Service aimed at surpassing their expectations (and each time she does...)

**★★★★★ — Marissa Croughan DePiero, Feb. 2014**

> I am a tile and stone designer and Michelle frequents our showroom Stratta to select materials for all of her projects.  She always knows exactly what is best for each client, and has a way of putting together stunning spaces so effortlessly.  She is super organized and on top of everything, which makes her even more of a delight to work with :) Michelle is the best of the best!
