Mary Pat and Melinda were an absolute dream team and we could not have been more pleased with both the design process and final outcome. They took the time to understand our family and our needs and crafted a space that is perfect for us. If you are looking for beauty, professionalism, quality, attention to detail, all within an agreed upon budget and timeline then Traditionally Derby is the place for you. **Comment from Derby Interiors & Design:** > Barbara, > > You are too sweet! Your project was one of our favorites and you were also a pleasure to work with. We hope your family continues to enjoy the pool house - we can't wait to see you again soon! **★★★★★ — Janet Smith, Nov. 2017** > Melinda Heavey my consultant from Traditionally Derby and her team were a delight to work with from beginning to end. Ours was a small project, but important in terms of finishing the seating arrangement in our living room. Although this was a small project, Melinda pursued it with promptness, enthusiasm, true professionalism and a great sense of humor! She was able to find the ideal two chairs and accent pieces for the room from new store inventory and had them quickly delivered to the house. The chairs are comfortable, beautiful and we love them. And, they were very reasonably priced and within our budget. Traditionally Derby has a wide selection of traditional and transitional furniture. The store is a delight to explore and always inspires. I highly recommend Traditionally Derby and would use them for any size project in the future. **Comment from Derby Interiors & Design:** > Thank you so much for the kind words, Janet! You were an absolute pleasure to work with and I greatly enjoyed your project. Let us know if there is anything we can do down the road to help you out! **★★★★ — eileenerb, Nov. 2017** > Traditionally Derby has a great selection of fabrics to choose from. We are happy with the end result. The craftsman they recommended were first rate. **Comment from Derby Interiors & Design:** > Hi Eileen, > > We really enjoyed working with you and our happy you like your new family room! **★★★★★ — carolefreitas, June 2017** > I have worked with Traditionally Derby for many years and have always been happy with the results. The women are creative, enthusiastic, patient, and thorough. I will continue to be a lifelong client! **Comment from Derby Interiors & Design:** > Thank you Carole! We always enjoy working with you and the relationship we have built. **★★★★★ — Teri Chilton Interior Designs, Sept. 2016** > Traditionally Derby has beautiful furniture and accessories and exceptional customer service. There is really no other place to go for anything my home, or the homes of my clients. They work closely with designers and go above and beyond to see a project through to fruition. No request is too much for them to handle. Plus they make it a joy to come in. I hated for my last project to end, and find myself making excuses to just drop in and wander through their gorgeous store. **Comment from Derby Interiors & Design:** > Thank you Teri, You are amazing to work with. You are such a skilled designer and go above and beyond for your clients. We will look forward to growing our relationship with you! **★★★★★ — egcompletedesign, Sept. 2016** > I am a designer and I order about as much as I can through them. They always give me the best price possible and are so easy to work with. I typically have a lot of projects going on at one time and I know whenever I order with derby they will get it done and hold the furniture until I am ready to install. Everyone there is really nice and always on top of things. If I ever call with a question it doesn't matter who it is, they know exactly what I am talking about and get back to me very quickly. They also have a great library so it is very easy to source exactly what I need. Ever since I started working with derby I have stopped going up to the design center in SF. Derby is a one stop shop that has made my job so much more enjoyable. **Comment from Derby Interiors & Design:** > Thank you Emily! You make our job so fun every time we see you. You are such an amazing designer and have a great eye for your clients. We look forward to continuing to work with you. **★★★★★ — Kelley Wolf Interiors, Aug. 2016** > As a designer, I'm always looking for great sources and Derby is one of the best. They have a broad selection of everything -- rugs, wallpaper, art, lighting, furniture, accessories, etc. The items are well made and priced and the shop carries high profile designer lines like Arteriors, Jamie Young, and Bungalow 5. The owner, Eileen Bocci, is a designer herself. She has a very "fresh" look in her shop -- updated without being trendy. She is particularly skilled at selecting upholstery fabrics and adding interesting details like trims and nailheads. There are several room "vignettes" that allow you to explore different styles and colors. The staff is friendly and helpful. All in all, It's a pleasure to do business here! **Comment from Derby Interiors & Design:** > Thank you Kelley! You are an absolute joy to work with. You always have such fun projects going on that we love to collaborate our ideas with you. We look forward to many years of working together. ## Selected projects - [Floor Model Flip - September 2017](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/floor-model-flip-september-2017-pj-vj~2715202) - Location: Menlo Park, CA - Photos: 31 - [Atherton Pool House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/atherton-pool-house-pj-vj~2856874) - Location: Atherton, CA - Photos: 9 - [Downtown Menlo Park Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/downtown-menlo-park-residence-pj-vj~2576106) - Location: Menlo Park, CA - Photos: 4 - [Palo Alto Ronald McDonald House Room 2](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/palo-alto-ronald-mcdonald-house-room-2-pj-vj~1722919) - Location: Palo Alto, CA - Photos: 22 - [Palo Alto Ronald McDonald House Room 3](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/palo-alto-ronald-mcdonald-house-room-3-pj-vj~1723078) - Location: Palo Alto, CA - Photos: 20 - Description: Derby designed 5 bedrooms for the new Ronald McDonald house in Palo Alto, California.
