Sofia is always up to date with new collections and innovative finishes, to offer her clients only the best products available worldwide; her talent and passion, combined with rigourous research, transforms every home in a dream made of style and elegance. We have been working together on several projects and coordination has laways been impeccable from the initial concept to installation. Working with her is a true delight and we would definitely recommend her.

**★★★★★ — Richard Drummond Davis Architects, March 2016**

> We were fortunate to work with Sofia and her SoJo design team recently on a home we designed in Dallas, Texas and the penthouse of the Ritz Carlton which she designed in downtown Dallas. She artfully blended her clean line contemporary style with our traditional detailing in the home. She was incredibly professional, efficient and so very pleasant to work with. We look forward to another opportunity to collaborate with Sophia in the future.

**★★★★★ — amysueharwood, Dec. 2015**

> SoJo decorated my Hamptons home and did a wonderful job.  They started from scratch and met their deadline so I could enjoy my home by the start of the summer.  Everything was done with the utmost professionalism and care.  I would recommend Sofia and her team in a second.  In fact, she will be hired to renovate my other homes when the time comes!!!

**★★★★★ — HU-984819, Dec. 2015**

> Sofia  has designed   two residences   for us.  She has delivered  on both projects: on  time , on budget , and with  great  artistic  success.   She  does  a wonderful job of  listening  to our general  desires and  then flawless translates our vision into all the details   that  deliver   a   beautiful  ambiance for  us to enjoy for years .

**★★★★★ — rhleff, Dec. 2015**

> We did a complete gutting of two condos, had them architected, constructed and furnished. Further we are in a building in Miami Beach that has a strict policy of work only being allowed from April-November and there are also restrictions on when heavy noise producing work is permitted.
> We hired SoJo Design to carry out all phases of the work. They hired the architect firm, the GC and a number of the trades and oversaw the work.
> We are not in Miami during the summer so we primarily relied on phone conferences and photos to keep us up to date on the progress of the project.
> Despite hearing many horror stories of poor workmanship and missed deadlines of companies doing this type of work in Miami to our delight we NEVER experienced any problems in the execution of the project. And the project came in on budget!!
> The only small hiccup we had was when Miami Licenses and Inspections contradicted themselves in where we had to put electric panels. This in no way reflected on SoJo or their subs.
> The final result exceeded our already high expectations. The SoJo staff was completely professional and friendly and we have gone out of our way to recommend them to friends and colleagues considering design and build projects.

**★★★★★ — jhleff, Dec. 2015**

> There is not one thing negative that I could say about the whole experience with SoJo Design. They were professional,met deadlines,extremely knowledgeable, and had very good insight into what we wanted.
> We are extremely happy with the results and have been getting unbelievable compliments on our condo.
> We couldn't be happier. We would highly recommend them to everyone.

**★★★★★ — Cassoni Furniture & Accessories, Nov. 2015**

> Working with Sofia and the Team from SoJo Design is awesome. So much talent and professionalism it makes us want to keep working with them as we've been doing since 2008 and still today. Very recommended.

**★★★★★ — Anna Sherrill, June 2013**

> I hired Sojo Design to do a large renovation on a single family home  and a small interior design on a beachfront rental.  Their expertise and knowledge not only saved me money, but also time.  They gave me recommendations, but always listened to my wants and needs.  On both projects they helped me through the entire process.  I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to do a complete renovation or just wants to freshen up an old space.  Their professionalism and customer service is excellent.
