**★★★★★ — Nell O'Donnell, June 2023**

> Inga does a great job of translating vision to actual plans. She is very focused on specifics and details and will provide feedback on color, texture, materials, etc. She has an excellent working relationship with contractors -- she works well with (and manages)  contractors and other providers to ensure work quality.

**★★★★★ — Tiina, May 2023**

> Inga designed our bathroom renovation for 3 full and one half bathrooms. She listened very well our needs and what we wanted to have for the bathroom and the outcome is everything we hoped for! Inga is nice to work with, she always answers all the questions in timely manner and finds solutions for any design problem you might have.

**★★★★★ — HU-413840042, March 2022**

> We went to Inga looking to update the look of our kitchen but to also find creative ways to add more storage into the existing space. We loved the suggestions Inga made and are very happy today with our kitchen. She proposed a large tile style that we never would have thought of for the floor that we are getting so many compliments on! And she’s happily answered our questions along the way since we did the remodel in stages. We recommend SurroundYou Design and would work with them in the future!

**★★★★★ — Pia Tukkinen, Feb. 2020**

> We wanted to update all our bathrooms to Scandinavian style and hired SurroundYou Design. We actually got more than we were expecting, since the first proposition was exactly what we asked for and the second one was something we would have never come up with, but liked more than the one we originally had in mind! We also did a backyard design with SurroundYou Design. Again, the ideas were more creative than what we would have thought of. Tweaks to the plan have been possible along the way and communication works well. We especially loved the detailed product list, that comes with the design.

**★★★★★ — Ann Escobar, Sept. 2018**

> Inga has a great eye and did a wonderful job with our living room space. We had been unhappy with the layout for years, but were never able to figure out a resolution on our own. She came up with a plan to rearrange some of our existing furnishings while incorporating some new pieces. The renderings she provided helped us visualize the end result. Rearranging the existing furniture made a huge difference, but with the addition of just a couple of new items it feels like a whole new room. We rarely used that area of the house before, but now enjoy relaxing & entertaining there regularly.
> Inga was very professional, accommodating with our schedule and listened to our ideas for our space. She made the process very simple for us. I highly recommend her services.

**★★★★★ — Sea Change Photography & Visual Consultation, March 2018**

> Inga put together an absolutely SPECTACULAR design for our backyard and pool renovation. My favorite part about it was that she broke it down so I could do some parts of the renovation immediately, and others later, as my budget permitted, all with an eye towards that final (and honestly, completely perfect) design. The pics here are her 3-d designs; I'll post pics of the renovation once it's completed!

**★★★★★ — Nadine McCabe, May 2017**

> Excellent design service. Very flexible and professional. We currently worked together on our master bathroom and it turned out to be beautiful.

**★★★★★ — christieuribe, April 2017**

> Inga completely redesigned our elementary school library. The end result is absolutely amazing!  Not only did she listen to all of our needs, but she was able to incorporate very functional aspects that still meet our "modern cyber cafe" goal. We are thrilled!  This was a huge project that has surpassed all of our expectations. I highly recommend Inga!

**★★★★★ — Amy Ward, March 2016**

> Inga was always on time and very professional. She worked around my crazy schedule and was very understanding when I needed to reschedule. She really got to the root of what I wanted our playroom/craft room to be. She made sure that not only my ideas, but also my husband's were heard. Inga worked in my budget and even detailed ways I could upgrade the space in the future. With her 3D renderings I really already know the room is going to be a home run!

**★★★★★ — Ted Wilson, March 2015**

> Inga has a gift for listening to a client's needs and transforming those needs into specific design principles and subsequent layout and furniture recommendations. Her attention to detail is unparalleled, and the computer rendering and design of my space along with my selected furnishings was mind blowing!
>
> Her ability to be flexible and tweak designs to incorporate additional concepts while preserving the overall design principle especially impressed me.
>
> Finally, her nearly real-time communication and detailed, tailored, thoughtful assistance and guidance through then furniture and decor procurement process was phenomenal and separates her above any beyond from any other service related relationship I have engaged in. 5 stars!

**★★★★★ — Lisa Paz-Furtado, May 2013**

> Inga is very professional and listens to your wants and needs and gives great suggestions.  Her overall attention to detail and creativity is impressive.
