**★★★★★ — Melissa Martin, Feb. 2017**

> Susan has a fantastic eye for design and I loved all her ideas for my daughter's room. Looking forward for her to help with the rest of our home.

**★★★★★ — Andrew Bales, March 2016**

> Susan is a pleasure to work with. She is professional, timely, and delivers tasteful design. We sold the property within a few days of her staging it for us. We will defiantly use her again.

**★★★★★ — rodgersmarilyn, Jan. 2016**

> While we wanted a second home, we did not want to put forth the effort to make it ours and we didn't have to as Susan Albright did it for us.  The first and only time we looked at our villa Susan spotted a wall that could be removed to open up what is now a beautiful room. We gave her a budget, which she did not go over. We closed in June and moved in in mid-December with everything completed. Her team of people from painters to electricians and plumbers is top notch. She managed to incorporate some of our furniture into her design.  Her color sense is wonderful and further more she is fun to work with. She loves what she does and it shows. and she truly gets excited about what she's doing.   We highly recommend her as an experienced and competent professional.

**Comment from Susan Albright Design:**

> Thanks, Marilyn.  It was such a pleasure working with you.  I love seeing how well you fit in your new space!

**★★★★★ — jgarveymd, Jan. 2016**

> Susan was wonderful. She furnished our house beautifully based on our desires which she got from us via her very thorough questionnaire. She kept to our budget with beautiful pieces. We could not be more happy with her work. I give her my highest recommendation without reservation. You won't be disappointed!

**Comment from Susan Albright Design:**

> I am so happy that you love your new house.  Hope you have many great times together there!

**★★★★★ — tbillings54, Dec. 2015**

> Great vision, turns your old out of date interior into a showcase ready to live and enjoy for years to come.

**★★★★ — ddbasil, May 2015**

> The process of designing our home with Susan Albright was a pleasure and a success. Susan is helpful, patient and knowledgeable in all areas of interior design. Her insight into making a house a home included thoughtful and personal touches in every room - furniture, accessories, bedding and more. Susan has a special designers touch and used that to make the most of color, space and light in our home. We highly recommend Susan Albright interior design services.

**★★★★★ — Charlie Buxton, April 2015**

> Susan redesigned and furnished our condo to be more attractive to buyers, after we had it on the real estate market for a year with no offers.  Within 2 weeks, we had 2 offers above its list price before Susan took on the project.  She gave it a light, airy, coastal look.  In addition, she took control of the project, worked quickly, and went above what is normally expected, which we needed as we live out of the area.

**★★★★ — jmersey1, April 2015**

> Photos, furniture and new paint look very good. No sale yet so can't say if this makes a difference but the house looks brighter and roomier.

**★★★★★ — Cecilia Morin, April 2015**

> Susan did a terrific job staging my parents home in Murrells Inlet, SC.  It had been on the market for over a year and we needed to get it sold.  The realtor we  were using didn't support staging and recommended we decrease the price, but instead we hired Susan.  She promptly evaluated, selected new wall colors and arranged for painting,  new carpeting, and furniture to modernize the property.    The house was totally transformed and within two weeks we had an offer!  Susan is a true professional - she took care of everything,  and did a beautiful job transforming a vacant house into a home.  I would definitely recommend Susan to anyone looking for a professional to help with staging or designing of a home.

Where are they from ???   Do you have any pretty solutions for a standard slider, flanked by a traditional double hung window on each side /
I can not figure out how the handle this ?   160" from side to side.   Windows are very close to the slider so you have to treat it as one window, I guess ??
