I treat each project, no matter the scope, as a solvable, intriguing puzzle. There's this incredible thing that happens when I walk into a client's space and "see" the potential.   Upon communicating my ideas to my client after carefully listening to their goals, I watch the furrowed brow turn into a smile and a light ignites in their eyes. 

 For seventeen years I was CEO of the specialty baking company I founded, Little Miss Muffin, enhancing the morning coffee at Starbucks and Caribou, the shopping baskets at Trader Joe's, and the First Class United Airlines breakfast flights.  

While I loved the food and beverage industry, design, color and visuals were passions and talents I possessed that made Little Miss Muffin's products interesting and unique.  After I sold my company, I was encouraged to pursue a career in interior design by my friends whose homes I helped style and by guests who visited my many homes throughout my life.  It's often said that you don't find your career, but your career finds you.

The final step to doing this professionally came from a prospective buyer of my treasured cottage in Highland Park, IL.  She bought another home, which she asked me to design.  

I know that decorating--changing or designing the place you will live or raise a family, can be overwhelming.....so many decisions, so many steps, so many ways for costs to get out of control. I help my clients make decisions when the selections can seem overwhelming and daunting while working at a fairly quick pace, always sensitive to my clients' dollar, recommending reliable professional trades and manufacturers, and managing each project as if it were my own home.  

That's where my seventeen years building a company come into play.  In addition to visual design, I also design and execute a plan, collaborating with my clients, asking the important questions and responding appropriately.  What are your time and planning needs?  How do you like to work and make decisions?  Do you like a lot of choices or a few curated options?  

Together we will not only create the environment that will make you happy, we will do it in a way that leaves you smiling throughout and at the end of the process.

**★★★★★ — Jeanie Alhadeff, Jan. 2021**

> t was a pleasure working with Staci Munic on my kitchen and bathroom remodels. Staci brought a package of talents to our first meeting. As a great listener, she took the time to hear my vision.  Her keen eye for design, combined with acute attention to detail created beautiful spaces I will love for a long time.

**★★★★★ — Tom Michael / Jay Clark, July 2020**

> With Staci, you get a fabulous sense of style, an extensive list of superb contractors and design resources, a really good listener and her innate ability to understand and guide her clients in an easy-going and fun way.
> Staci completely redesigned our bedroom and bath suite in our Chicago home.  We are thrilled with the results.  She honored and understood our taste, and then enhanced and spun it into a gorgeous final result. It’s beautiful, exactly what we were hoping for and was the easiest remodeling project we have ever done.
> Five Stars for Staci!

**Comment from Staci Munic Interiors:**

> Thank you so much, Tom and Jay!  What a delight it has been to have the opportunity to not only work with you, but also to get to know you.  5 Stars for Tom and Jay!

**★★★★★ — Kim Crawford, Sept. 2019**

> As a renter I wanted to give my place a cozy and inviting feel without spending too much on items I couldn't take with me. Staci was always open to my opinions, gave me options in a variety of price ranges, and completely understood my goals for the project. And she was fun and engaging through the process. I would absolutely work with her again!

**★★★★★ — Burton Sherman, Nov. 2017**

> Staci is great! My wife and I hired her to figure out which furniture, art pieces, chachkies and wall art should be moved from our home of 49.5 years to our new apartment. Downsizing is difficult but Staci helped in all the design areas...and then some. Her knowledge base in her field, plus her wonderful personal disposition made our move as smooth as it could have been. We are in our 70s and 80s, still working, yet didn't know the first thing about how to create a new place to live--we never could have made our new home, as special as our old home, without Staci. She never left our side until everything was placed and hung. Our new home is perfect thanks to her.

**★★★★★ — Stephanie Engelman, Nov. 2017**

> Staci is FANTASTIC and SO good at her job! She is most knowledgeable, thoughtful and considerate, with design style and expertise that is second to none! Staci always is on-call and available, and works quickly and efficiently with clients (our family) and vendors--never leaving a stone un-turned until project completion. Coordinating furniture placement, all table and wall art placement, new purchases and more...Staci does it all, while keeping her audience in mind at all times. Plus, regarding finances, Staci was on budget for sure! As evidenced here, we have become huge Staci fans and are so grateful she spearheaded our project. We have spread her name around like wildfire and will continue to do so, for others deserve to work with the best...Staci Ilene Design!

**Comment from Staci Munic Interiors:**

> It was so wonderful working with you, and getting to know you and your amazing family, Stephanie!  Thank you so much for the lovely review.  I truly appreciate it.

**★★★★★ — dianewel, June 2017**

> I REALLY enjoyed working with Staci. She helped me design and decorate my office to be comfortable and inviting for my clients. She is  such a beautiful person and so talented. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I LOVE my office.

**★★★★★ — Denise Siegel, May 2017**

> Staci was very easy to work with and succeeded in achieving my design goals. She is very responsive and accessible. I referred Staci to several friends and they are all very happy.  I will definitely work with Staci again on our next home improvement project.

**★★★★★ — Karen Borg, Jan. 2017**

> I reached out to Staci to help us with several design dilemmas in our Lincoln Park townhome.  We were stuck in a rut, because nobody in my family could agree on what direction to take the projects.  Plus, we are all extremely busy working and studying, so shopping for furniture and planning space for our home is not on the top of our list of fun things to do when we have some free time on the weekends.
>
> We were in desperate need of making a guest room/office functional and good looking for my family, yet comfortable when we have out of town guests.  My  teenage daughter outgrew her childhood bedroom décor, and lastly, our master bedroom was in need of some TLC.   We turned to Staci for guidance.
>
> Staci transformed all of the spaces in an organized, timely, and within budget method.  She turned a dreaded task into a fun, collaborative, pleasant experience.  We loved working with Staci, and we are thrilled with the way our home looks and feels!

**★★★★★ — Crimson Design & Construction, Dec. 2016**

> I've worked with Staci on several projects and found her knowledge and skill to be second to none.  She always puts her client's first and foremost.  She has great ideas and extremely easy to work with. As an architect and builder, we trust Staci's expertise to find the right solution to any issue.  I hope to work with her on future projects and highly recommend her to any client who is looking for an interior designer.

**★★★★★ — erin\_salins, Dec. 2016**

> She is wonderful! Very professional and great design ideas. She also takes a client's budget into consideration, which is really helpful when it comes to finding home decor.

**★★★★★ — Deann Zoghlin, Nov. 2016**

> When deciding to do a master bathroom remodel I chose to use Staci Munic of SID.  Staci was recommended to me by a trusted friend whom had recently used Staci for several projects.  Our master bathroom consisted of 4 rather  large areas.  My initial plan was to update the master shower and replace outdated cabinetry.  Staci helped to reimagine the entire master bath with removing some existing wall for better flow and removing an oversized 80’s style tub that had  wall to wall stone decking to a standalone tub that made the tub area turn into a private oasis.  These changes really made this room my favorite in our house.  Staci meet regularly with our contractor to go over  all decisions.  Staci was with me to pick out all fixtures and chose all the perfect colors for paint and accessories in the new master bath.  Staci was always very prompt for meetings and had a very fair hourly rate.  For all of these reasons I have chosen to use SID once again on our newest home project that we are just beginning.

**★★★★★ — Barbara Borden, Nov. 2016**

> I so enjoyed working with Staci.  While the project was small, she understood the direction I wanted to pursue, was efficient and a delight to work with,

  - Description: When this couple bought this vacant, dilapidated lake front home perfectly perched on a ravine, with its private beach, and cantilevered pool deck, they knew they had stumbled on to something special. Truly, they found a diamond in the rough designed by esteemed architect Tony Grunsfeld, famous for his low slung, very simple and tailored, no mess, no fuss modernist homes. This particular design was an experiment for him, a tri-pavilion ranch connected by two hallways, with a walk out lower level…
