I have worked directly with Lisa and her team for years. Over that time, we have done a beautiful master bedroom makeover, transformed our children's former playroom to a peaceful functional space and have updated our wall coverings and color, window treatments, furnishings, rugs and décor. Lisa is a talented designer with a great eye and unique sense of style that is easy and comfortable. Her creativity and design sense result in a timeless and comfortable space, mixing modern style with old world charm. Lisa will meet with you to understand your own ideas about desired designs and styles and make recommendations based on your lifestyle and budgets. Lisa and her team are very transparent on timelines and delivery. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Savoir Faire Home on many of my design needs! I highly recommend Savoir Faire Home! **★★★★★ — Joanne and Lou Luciano, Feb. 2018** > We contracted Savoir Faire for interior design work on new construction of a beach house and they were fantastic, providing services from beginning to end. Lisa, Grace and Kathy were very knowledgeable, extremely organized and very easy to work with. The end result was fantastic and we would highly recommend them for any project large or small. As a matter of fact we’ve recently hired them again for work on our main residence :) **★★★★★ — Kathie Eldridge, Feb. 2018** > Lisa and her team are truly talented professionals who are a pleasure to work with. After having completed two different design projects with them, I can't imagine using anyone else. > Lisa's style fit right in with mine, and her willingness to please is unmatched. > Can't wait to work with them again!! **★★ — Anna, Jan. 2018** > Hired Lisa it’s a furnished my condo not happy I gave her 150,000 to work with and we had many problems I asked for firm i’m on my couches and none of them work she will not take them back .She send the couch to be reupholstered not happy one of the couches when you sit on if your full of lint definitely did not use the same quality that she would use in our home which I was promised. **★★★★★ — User, April 2017** > Savoir Faire Home is a hidden gem in Andover that I love visiting! Lisa and her team are so wonderful to work with and do beautiful work, they can transform any interior. Lisa is great at sourcing new and interesting pieces for the home in her travels and using them to create comfortable, calming, peaceful interiors that you just can’t wait to step into. She is great at mixing elements of texture and print in ways you would never think to do and truly has a great eye for interior design. I highly recommend checking out their shop in Andover where they have things you can’t find anywhere else! They are truly great professionals and do beautiful work. **Comment from Savoir Faire Home:** > Thank You Lea for your thoughtful comments! We truly enjoy working with you and value the long term relationship we have shared. Your eye for detail and artistic flare make every photoshoot outstanding and result in beautiful photos that we are proud to post and share. Thank you for helping us showcase our work on HOUZZ, our website, and in printed publications. The Savoir Faire Home Team **★★★★★ — Gray Construction, Aug. 2016** > I am a custom home builder on the Seacoast of New Hampshire. My company works with a number of local designers in the area, and I can attest that Savoir Faire is exceptional beyond any of the rest. My client hired Savoir Faire after construction had begun last winter. They were able to make what was an otherwise stressful process for the owners fun and rewarding. Also they were able to work with me to keep the project on schedule and on budget. I am happy to refer Savoir Faire to anyone, friend or client. Thanks to all of you on a very successful project! **Comment from Savoir Faire Home:** > Thank You Brian for taking the time and thought to write the review. The success of this project was truly a cooperative effort. Your flexibility and creativity made our job easier and fun and resulted in a wonderful home for our client. Look forward to working together again. > The Savoir Faire Home Team **★★★★★ — romoboston, July 2016** > I work for Romo, a fabric and wallcovering company based out of the UK. It has always been impressive to see how Savoir Faire has included our products into so many of their beautiful projects. The staff is always warm, friendly, and professional and their creative design instincts are top notch in the industry. They have been an absolute pleasure to work with over the years, and I look forward to continuing our relationship on many projects in the future. > > Joseph > Territory Manager > Romo Fabrics & Wallcovering **Comment from Savoir Faire Home:** > Dear Joseph: Thank you for the thoughtful and wonderful review. We love using Romo fabrics and wall coverings. They have transformed many of our projects and designs. Your customer service and expertise truly stand out and make it a pleasure to work with you and all the Romo folks. **★★★★★ — mchin40, April 2016** > I was very pleased with Savoir Faire Home. I hired Lisa to decorate my family room, bedroom, and to help choose paint colors throughout my home. I love Lisa's sense of style. I had not previously hired a decorator and I was somewhat nervous. I did not want my home to look matchy-matchy. Lisa helped me achieve a casual flow that is often complimented by my guests. I could not be happier with the end result! Lisa was also very easy to work with. She accommodated my schedule and always had alternative suggestions to meet my budget. I have recommended Savoir Faire home to many people and will continue to do so. **Comment from Savoir Faire Home:** > Thank You for your review. I loved working on your projects and more importantly, I love hearing that you are happy with the results. **★★★★★ — jopow3, April 2016** > "I discovered Lisa about 10 years ago through our mutual love of antiques. As I got to know her, her style and design savvy, I knew I had found the person to help me design and furnish my new home. I would best describe Lisa’s interior designs as peaceful, serene spaces, combining both modern and traditional designs. The end result is a warm, timeless appearance with a wonderful mix of the old, the new and the new made to look old. She has amazing resources from around the world which she compiles on a regular basis. This allows her to keep her designs both fresh and cutting edge but never trendy. Her use of texture and luxury materials is an example of this. Most importantly, Lisa is a great listener who wants you to love the end product. As a person who relished being involved in the design process, I would not want to work with anyone else." > -Joanne, Andover, MA and Kennebunkport, ME **★★★★★ — dcoulombe, April 2016** > I've worked with Lisa on several rooms in my home. She was able to accommodate my schedule and work within a budget that we established at the outset of the project. Her style and creativity helped to transform cookie cutter spaces into coastal themed living areas that are beautiful and comfortable. I look forward to furnishing and transforming the rest of our house with Lisa's touch. **★★★★★ — Rick Benson, April 2015** > Lisa is a uniquely talented designer. Her designs are instantly recognizable as she is able to combine function with style, modern with classic. Whatever the design challenge, her results speak for themselves. Her projects are trans-formative and result in interiors that are both modern and timeless while elegantly engaging the environment in which they are located. I personally worked with Lisa on this project. This was a oceanfront home. Lisa did an amazing job of designing, which transformed it into something special. The house is an amazing place to spend time with panoramic ocean views. ## Selected projects - [New England Beach Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-england-beach-home-pj-vj~2160345) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - Description: This beach front home is designed for entertaining and summer living. Furnishings evoke a casual elegance. The soft color palette blends and complements the great beach views and sand dunes which are right outside the home. Several lighting fixtures are adorned with oyster shells and the art work speaks to a subtle beach theme and finishes the look. - [Massachusetts North Shore Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/massachusetts-north-shore-home-pj-vj~1214172) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 21 - Description: This sophisticated home sits on the water and the decor reflects coastal colors and subtle elements from the sea. Soft colors which reflect nature allowed us to tie rooms and spaces together on the open concept first floor. Each room was designed to have a pop of something unexpected. - [Sophisticated Andover Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sophisticated-andover-home-pj-vj~1052548) - Location: Andover, MA - Photos: 12 - Description: This client requested an updated sophisticated yet relaxed look for their family room. We mixed textures and fabrics to create interest. The sun room used to be child's playroom and the update created a lovely space for a cup of coffee while also providing a space for teenagers to do homework. The master bedroom was designed to be peaceful with a soft palette. - [Maine Oceanfront House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/maine-oceanfront-house-pj-vj~1050378) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: This stunning waterfront Maine home was a wonderful setting for a soft neutral palette of colors and also allowed us to pop coastal elements in to the mix. Our goal was a clean, relaxed and peaceful design that complimented the stunning water views and natural color schemes out the windows. - [Andover Garrison Colonial Rehab](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/andover-garrison-colonial-rehab-pj-vj~1301377) - Location: Andover, MA - Photos: 9 - Description: This project was a total house rehab of a 1950's Garrison Colonial. This house had good bones but needed some updating. I opened up the kitchen/dining room/family room space and added an island in the kitchen with an eating counter. I kept the color palette neutral and soothing throughout - the perfect canvas for making furnishings pop. - [Swedish Kitchen and Dining Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swedish-kitchen-and-dining-room-pj-vj~1052600) - Location: Andover, MA - Photos: 7 - Description: This home is a wonderful mix of new fabrics and furniture and fine antique pieces sourced by Savoir Faire Home and the client's own collection. Always a beautiful and interesting look. - [Vermont Retreat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vermont-retreat-pj-vj~1214114) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - Description: This Vermont home is close to ski areas but is far from the traditional ski decor. The art and furnishings play off of the Vermont location in a different and interesting way. - [Sandy Dune Beach House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sandy-dune-beach-house-pj-vj~6627902) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [Transitional Shingle Style Waterfront](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-shingle-style-waterfront-pj-vj~3125260) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [Salisbury Home by the Sea](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/salisbury-home-by-the-sea-pj-vj~5816358) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - [Maine Water Front Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/maine-water-front-home-pj-vj~3282597) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 [See all 11 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/savoir-faire-home-pfvwus-pf~218202793) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/85539812/list/wish-list) — 1 idea - [savoirfairehome's Favorites](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/1349999/list/savoirfairehome-s-favorites) — 4 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/savoirfairehome) ## Community Q&A **Q: Love the chair!** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you tell me where you purchased this guest chair?
