Modifica Interiors is versatile in that they complete projects varying from traditional, to transitional or classical, and focus on transforming spaces to the clients' desires and needs. They take a hands on, detailed approach, working with clients from concept to completion. When Sal first meets with a client, he takes into consideration what the clients truly want—not just a definition of a style, but what exactly does the style mean to them? He listens to the clients to discover the true reality of how they want to style their homes. Do they want to design their home based on who they are or how they see themselves? Design is a nonverbal, visual language that not many understand. Sal Modifica has the natural ability to ‘have a conversation with space’. The options provided by Modifica Interiors are limitless—Sal will present all options based on what he finds appropriate. He looks for things that inspire him by movement and that create emotion. He presents completely customizable and optimum options, followed by discussions based on availability and cost. Modifica Interiors is fortunate to have many new and returning clients, some of whom have returned for 10+ years to design and re-design their homes. Sal is most humbled by the trust that is given to him, and takes pride that his clients have complete confidence in his work. ### Services Provided - Bathroom Design - Color Consulting - Custom Bathroom Vanities - Custom Bookcases - Custom Built-ins - Custom Cabinets - Custom Entertainment Centers - Custom Fireplace Mantels - Custom Furniture - Custom Home Bars - Custom Kitchen Cabinets - Custom Pantries - Custom Rugs - Custom Shelving - Downsizing - Floor Plans - Holiday Decorating - Kids Bedroom Design - Kitchen Design - Kitchen Remodeling - Nursery Design ### Areas Served - Hartford - New Britain - Bristol - Manchester - East Hartford - Enfield - Glastonbury - Newington - Windsor - Wethersfield - South Windsor - Farmington - Simsbury - Bloomfield - Rocky Hill - Avon - Plainville - Suffield - East Windsor - Granby - Burlington - Marlborough - West Simsbury - South Glastonbury ### Typical Job Cost $25,000 - 500,000 Depending on the scope of work, my clients may spend around $50,000-100,000 per room.

He is a great listener who understands our taste, and does not force his own style, but rather offers multiple options for us to consider that are consistent with our interest. The appearance of our home, with a special care on presentation of our artwork, is a source of great pride. He is patient, dependable and unflappable. His trades people, who he supervises, are of the highest quality. If Sal shows us something that we feel is not consistent with our budget, there is no protest. He goes back and searches for something less costly, with a similar feel. An easy personality to work with, he has come to feel as much a friend as a vendor. And he is scrupulously honest in every positive sense of that word. **Comment from Modifica Interiors LLC:** > Ron & Judy > The foundation for any great partnership in my view are respect and trust: > I have had the good fortune to have these virtues in our partnership. > The collaboration of exchanged ideas and common interest as fostered some of my greatest interior accomplishments with the added bonus of your friendship. > A road well-traveled is worth the journey to its destination. > Sal **★★★★ — Andrea Saxon, June 2017** > Fun guy to work with. Very professional. Will bring you two to three items to choose from. Staying in budget is hard, but he has good people to work with him, who are just as professional. **★★★★★ — Gerard Lupacchino, June 2017** > The team of professional craftsman that Sal engages to execute his designs are some of the best artisans on the planet. Whether it's the wallpaper hanger or the drapery workroom, the team is patient, thoughtful, creative and delightful to work with. To engage someone as talented as Sal, with his depth of design expertise and breadth of supplier connections in the market place, one can only hope his team is equally good. They are, and Modifica Interiors never fails to delight us with outstanding work. **★★★★★ — robrugg, Oct. 2016** > Modifica Interiors is fantastic, and Sal Modifica (the owner and interior designer) is extraordinary. I couldn't be more in love with the results. The quality of the work, the level of taste, the guidance and flexibility made my experience behind wonderful. My relationship with the organization is on-going and supportive. Sal was able to collaborate me in uncovering the design direction and take me to places I didn't even anticipate I would go. He was a great listener, but also strong enough to know better than I did what I was really asking for. I continue to receive many compliments on the result and continually recommend him to friends and colleagues. You COULD NOT DO BETTER. **★★★★★ — rbenson34, Feb. 2016** > As a professional photographer I've worked with Sal for more than twenty years. In that time I've found him to be one of most creative and innovative interior designers I've worked with. He can be bold, traditional, or contemporary, all with skill and understanding of the client's needs. He is also very easy to work with. **★★★★★ — stitchwitch1959, Feb. 2016** > For the past twenty years I have had the pleasure working in association with Sal Modifica of Modifica Interiors. As owner of a custom drapery workroom, it has been critically important for me to work with a talented professional who has knowledge on all aspects of design and fabrication. > > Sal really understands his clients and is able to execute their vision. He is an excellent collaborator and his attention to detail makes all of his projects exceptional. I would highly recommend Sal for your next project! **★★★★★ — Judy Zinn, Feb. 2016** > John and I have happily utilized Modifica Interiors numerous times and have always been delighted with the results.

We enjoy all the Sal genius touches in our kitchen, family room, powder room and master bedroom and bath and consider Sal to be the best! > Our last project was December, 2013. **Comment from Modifica Interiors LLC:** > Judy & John, > Thank you for your kind words and your unwavering support though our long history together. > Your trust and encouragement have provided me with comfort and friendship. > Sal **★★★★★ — Joe Limiero, Feb. 2016** > I have had the opportunity to work with Sal on many projects along with his clients. What makes Sal stand out from the rest is the way in which he marries different materials together to make a space come alive. He truly thinks of the project and client to make sure that it will turn out to be everything they dreamed about and more. He is careful and methodical about what the space will become in the end. If you are looking for Design expert that will transform any room into a spectacular space for years to come, then Sal is truly the designer for you. **★★★★★ — wab64, Feb. 2016** > Sal Modifica designed the complete remodel of my lake house during 2011-12. The inside of the lake house was cleared to a shell and Sal envisioned and planned out a space tailored to my comfort and taste. The project included every detail of the reconstruction from window and wall placement and color, flooring and wood ceiling procurement and installation, and entire kitchen design including cabinet, countertops (cement), isle and custom light fixtures. His vision was clearly and professionally communicated to me with ease, with him always being sensitive to my needs, budget and time table. I fully recommend Sal and Modifica Interiors for any project where you need the assistance of a seasoned professional who understands the client comes first, and is able to execute your dream design to exciting results. **★★★★★ — Karen Byrne, Feb. 2016** > I have known Mr. Modifica for over 20 years. > As a design consultant, he is without peer.

Each undertaking in our long history together has been a road well-traveled and filled with rewards beyond any visual esthetics. You have gifted me with your generosity and your friendship in which I am truly grateful. > Sal **★★★★★ — Michael Remillard, Feb. 2016** > I am the owner of an upholstery shop in the Greater Hartford area. Our shop has had the pleasure of working with Sal for over ten years. We have worked on projects together from a single piece of furniture to a complete home. We have never worked with a designer as quality focused and his impeccable attention to detail. Sal's design technique and unique fashion is one of a kind. He uses only the finest fabrics and trims available in the market. He is attentive and caters to all of his clients needs. It is a pleasure to work with Sal and to have the satisfaction of being able to witness the outcome of his designs and everyone's hard work. **★★★★★ — Elizabeth Evanick, Feb. 2016** > As picture framers, we have been working with Modifica Interiors for years. Sal is one of the most creative people we have known. His attention to detail is amazing. He will not settle on a design until he knows that the artwork will not only look its best but also look wonderful in the room. He is a pleasure to work with! **Comment from Modifica Interiors LLC:** > Liz and George Evanick of the Artful Framers have consistently had a clear vision and understanding of the directional esthetic and composition I’m looking for on each project devolvement. > The knowledge and enthusiasm they infuse makes each visit a rewarding experience. ## Selected projects - [Classical Hartford Show House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classical-hartford-show-house-pj-vj~2025793) - Location: Hartford, CT - Photos: 4 - [Transitional Bloomfield Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-bloomfield-home-pj-vj~2025778) - Location: Bloomfield, CT - Photos: 5 - [Classical Farmington Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classical-farmington-home-pj-vj~1067916) - Location: Farmington, CT - Photos: 14 - [Transitional Master Bedroom & Guest Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-master-bedroom-and-guest-bathroom-pj-vj~2025788) - Location: Glastonbury, CT - Photos: 8 - [Bloomfield Traditional Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bloomfield-traditional-home-pj-vj~2025745) - Location: Bloomfield, CT - Photos: 4 - [Transitional Glastonbury Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-glastonbury-home-pj-vj~1067893) - Location: Glastonbury, CT - Photos: 4 - [Traditional Simsbury Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-simsbury-home-pj-vj~2025740) - Location: Simsbury, CT - Photos: 8 - [Transitional Avon Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-avon-home-pj-vj~2025781) - Location: Avon, CT - Photos: 3 - [Traditional Bloomfield Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-bloomfield-home-pj-vj~2025752) - Location: Bloomfield, CT - Photos: 2 - [Traditional Avon Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-avon-home-pj-vj~1067912) - Location: Avon, CT - Photos: 4 - [Traditional West Hartford Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-west-hartford-home-pj-vj~2025749) - Location: West Hartford, CT - Photos: 2 - [Traditional Essex Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-essex-home-pj-vj~2025744) - Location: Essex, CT - Photos: 3 - [Traditional Hartford Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-hartford-living-room-pj-vj~2025751) - Location: Hartford, CT - Photos: 1 - [Transitional West Hartford Show House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-west-hartford-show-house-pj-vj~2025784) - Location: West Hartford, CT - Photos: 4 - [Traditional West Hartford Show House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-west-hartford-show-house-pj-vj~2025755) - Location: West Hartford, CT - Photos: 2 - [Farmington Show House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/farmington-show-house-pj-vj~2025746) - Location: Farmington, CT - Photos: 3 - [Traditional Farmington Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-farmington-bedroom-pj-vj~2025761) - Location: Farmington, CT - Photos: 1 - [Traditional West Hartford Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/traditional-west-hartford-bedroom-pj-vj~2025759) - Location: West Hartford, CT - Photos: 1 - [Glamorous Beachy Cabinetry Finish](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/glamorous-beachy-cabinetry-finish-pj-vj~1738113) - Location: Glastonbury, CT - Photos: 2 [See all 19 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/modifica-interiors-llc-pfvwus-pf~311616714) ## Ideabooks - [Beacon Hill Loft](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/88151133/list/beacon-hill-loft) — 2 ideas - [Masterbath Idea's](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/65986053/list/masterbath-idea-s) — 2 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/modifica) ## Community Q&A **Q: Do you know the artist’s name who painted the picture over the sofa?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Sheryl Daane Chesnut: Her work is available through Julesplace.com **Q: Beautiful mirror** *(in Photo Questions)* This is a gorgeous room!
