She is not afraid to ask you to do something outside the box. I appreciate that because she has made our home a show piece. In fact the teal office is in my home. It is the most spectacular room. **★★★★★ — saraglan, Dec. 2014** > Erin has an impeccable eye for detail. Without actual construction she transformed the look and functional size of our living room. She honored our desire to keep certain pieces and created her design to work WITH them, not around them. She provided two different color schemata and we loved them both. We went with the more practical plan and she embraced our decision. We could not be happier. Thank you Erin! **★★★★★ — katyjane5, Oct. 2014** > I have worked with Erin on overall home decorating. From the rugs and furniture to tile for the bathroom. Erin has a sophisticated, polished pallet, yet can also throw in flare, pop and items/colors you would never have figured. From bright blues furniture to a 'furry/fluffy' rugs to a sky colored ceiling. Erin captured 'me', my personality and created a home that truly is mine and surrounds me with colors, textures and a feeling that encompass my life. **★★★★★ — allib212, Oct. 2014** > I worked with Erin several years ago on my Manhattan apartment and had a wonderful experience. Erin came to the job packed with unique and tasteful ideas of how to maximize our space and how to handle decorating on a budget with a mix of high and low product. She even helped design a chair that is still our favorite piece. I highly recommend her! **★★★★★ — smc022278, Oct. 2014** > Erin Iba is a delight to work with! She is professional, funny,and has a wonderful eye. She made our new home beautiful. She's very responsive and took the time to learn much about us and our taste. I highly recommend working with Erin! **★★★★★ — User, Oct. 2014** > I have had the pleasure of working with IBA Design Associates on an extremely challenging project in which they were the Interior Designers. IBA not only provided drawings and specifications that exceeded the clients goals but also went above and beyond by working with the contractor to realize the concept and vision portrayed in the contract documents. I would recommend this team to anyone wanting a competent designer that thinks outside the box and doesn't just do something because it is "trendy". IBA provides the creative vision that leads other designers into a rich and vibrant future! **★★★★★ — Krause Construction Denver Colorado, Oct. 2014** > Speaking as a General Contractor, Erin is exceedingly knowledgeable and dedicated to her craft and her clients. She has provided outstanding interior design services on my projects and has done so professionally, efficiently, and stress-free. Erin has a keen eye for space planning, understands the important details, and is particularly incisive with color selection. I always appreciate her involvement because our clients are happier, and the results are simply better. **★★★★★ — tkr163, Oct. 2014** > Erin, the owner of Iba Design gets 5 stars from me. She is very professional and most important listens to what is important to me as homeowner. I think its great that she can step back and decide where we spend $$$ and where we save and my house is going to look wonderful. IShe has been worth every $ spent. **★★★★★ — kellyroberts123, Oct. 2014** > I have used Iba Design for two different projects. I have used Erin to redecorate one house and then I have also used her to design a closet and bathroom addition to my new house. She has been absolutely wonderful and come up with a brilliant ideas to make life easier and more beautiful for me.
