Look no further. Judy and Jacquie are keenly focused on bringing their client's vision to life from a wide variety of vendors and sources. We have partnered with Garrett Mitchell in Chicago and in the DC area to design a loft space, a townhome and a suburban home. In addition to their design aesthetic, they network and work brilliantly with vendors, which results in quality work and met deadlines. Garrett Mitchell Interiors will make your house a home! **Comment from Garrett Mitchell Interiors:** > Chris, you KNOW how much we loved working with you and Brett to create your lovely first home. Let's do your vacation home together in 2018! You two are the best! > Judy & Jacquie ### All 31 reviews **★★★★★ — Theresa Allen, Jan. 2021** > Jacquie and Judy are amazing! They are experienced, helpful and thoughtful. Especially this year, where we connected via Zoom, it would have been more difficult for them to understand what we wanted, but they got it! We are enjoying our new home and all of the loving touches. **Comment from Garrett Mitchell Interiors:** > Thanks so much, Theresa! How perfect that we were able to work together to create your new Chicago home! Great city views and delightful to work with you and Dan! **★★★★★ — A Khan, Dec. 2020** > We bought our dream house; it was BIG with a separate room and bathroom for all 3 kids plus enough room for plenty of guests and a separate level for business office. It’s about 6500 sq ft of living space. BUT the interior design was 20 years old. We interviewed several interior design teams but settled on Judy and Jacquie and we are thrilled that we did. We redid 1 kids bathroom and a very large master bathroom completely. The main family room had to be redone and they came up with a brilliant strategy for using the very large space and met our need for a mud room by creating a beautiful partition (with bench) using an ethnic design which we liked. This is an area which is heavily used by all and we still love it like the first time we first saw it.Their help with the soft touches like paint, fabric and wall paper choices helped refine and enhance our vision. > > The world of interior design can be a little intimidating because of range of options and wide range of prices, but J & J made us feel very comfortable and worked with our price restrictions. The project had to stop for a few months in the middle and they worked around our constraints with great ease. We would have no hesitation recommending them for anyone. We look forward to working with them again ourselves. **Comment from Garrett Mitchell Interiors:** > Ansul, what a great collection of ideas we shared to make this wonderful house YOUR home. We look forward to continuing to work together! Best to your beautiful family! **★★★★★ — Erin Cibula, Jan. 2019** > Jacquie and Judy have been instrumental in helping my husband and me build our house. They took standard building plans and filled in the gaps - furniture layouts, electrical/lighting plans and selections, architectural finishes, kitchen layout, plumbing and tile selections. They made a large project manageable. In addition, they have professionally and flexibly worked with our budget and ever changing schedule. **★★★★★ — Anne Huston, Dec. 2018** > Jacquie and Judy were exceptionally helpful in our recent downsizing. They helped with the furniture layout in our new smaller space, and advised us on paint colors, area rugs, and window treatments. And, the frosting on the cake, they helped hang our pictures after we were settled. Everything was handled in a very timely manner. **★★★★★ — Tina Haubert, Dec. 2018** > Judy and Jacqueline are a pleasure to work with because they can so easily bridge the gap between their deep design expertise and the specific needs of each client. They brought a range of great ideas to our project and helped us bring it all together with the contractors. **★★★★★ — Lauren & Chris O'Neill, Nov. 2017** > We had a GREAT experience with Garrett Mitchell Interiors!! My husband and I purchased a new house in August 2015. It was larger than our old home and I really struggled decorating it. After many costly mistakes on my part, I decided to hire someone that could help my make my house look more like a home. After consulting with several Interior designers I found Garrett Mitchell and I immediately knew I was in good hands. They found creative and fun ways to work within my budget (which was somewhat tight). From refinishing some of our old furniture to look totally new and hip, to bringing in some great new one of a kind items. They completely transformed my empty "house" into a beautiful, warm and peaceful "home". I can't say enough about how excellent these 2 are to work with. It was an absolute pleasure and I would highly recommend working with them. > > Note- I did not post photos as we just had them taken today. Once we get them back I will post **★★★★★ — Chika Sekiguchi, Nov. 2017** > Jacquie and Judy have helped us make great strides in creating a welcoming home. After 10 years of accomplishing minimal home improvements on our own, we needed help. > > They were very patient and helped my husband and I at every stage of the process: they listened to our needs and dreams, helped us work through decision blocks (even providing a real estate analysis of our neighborhood to inform our budgeting) and delighted us with creative big picture ideas all the way down to beautiful finishing touches. > > We have worked on several different renovations of various scales starting in 2013: 1) complete kitchen and bathroom remodel, 2) dining/living and bedroom "reset" (rearrange and purge furnishing, finishes and accessories to make the most of what we had), 3) guest room planning and finishes, 4) future renovation of our front entry exterior and 5) finishing out our attic space. (the project cost listed below is a total of all 5) > > They are talented, focused and effective design professionals: and a complete delight to work with. (more photos to come) **★★★★★ — Lucy Trimarco, Nov. 2017** > \- Judy & Jacquie are genuine well verse talented Interior Designers whom have many years of design experience at firms and working independently on projects. Their design sense and understanding is amazing to listen too and their design process through sketching and drawing makes everyone get inspired and feel excited for the new. > \- They are great business partners because they balance one another beautifully. > \- They are very easy to talk too because they are great listeners especially concerning design challenges you may be facing in your home or business. > -Their discipline in solving the design challenges brought their way with options is inspiring. > \- Personally, I have enjoyed many years working with them, learning and growing from them. > If you are looking for interiors help, you owe it to yourself to set up a meeting with these two great professionals. **★★★★★ — Donald Moats, Nov. 2017** > “I cannot say enough about these lovely and very talented ladies. I hired them, in June 2017 for a large and complex project. One of the things that I loved about them is that they had skills that were both common and distinct from each other and I find that these types of qualities produce the best results. The common skills and ideas enforce what the trends are that would appeal to a buyer. The distinct skills and ideas allowed for a healthy discussion which led to some of the best results. > > Another detail that I loved was that they go out of their way to ensure the work and quality of the contractors to bring their vision to life. They would swing by to check on the work in progress and provide directions to the contractors to make their design intent a reality. > > Yet another quality was their ability to collaborate with me, educate me and to listen to me and my ideas. > > I was so impressed with what they had done with the virtual staging, WOW, it was remarkable. Also, they came up with the color and pattern for my finished basement and helped determine the type of finish for the epoxy. Please take a look at the photos, the space is completely void of furniture and accents but you would NOT believe it by the photos. > > You could NOT find anyone else better to bring your place to life. They are smart, thoughtful, professional, knowledgeable, very friendly, hardworking and extremely talented. It would be a mistake NOT to hire this firm to do all your design work.” **★★★★★ — Shari Wolf, Nov. 2017** > We have worked with Jacquie Garrett for a good 15 years on projects that range from room refreshes to a major design project 11 years ago when we combined two condos in to one unit. Our most recent project this spring was for a refresh in our dining and living space, and we are about to embark on another project for the bedrooms. Jacquie and Judi and delights to work with. What we love most is their ability to work with their clients design taste(s) as opposed to forcing their own personal styles. They are also fabulous at working around "special" pieces that we have wanted to keep ... insuring they are included in the project. AND they have a wonderful voice at assisting with decision making when we are on the fence. We most recently (April/May '17) had a refresh in our living / dining space ... and we LOVE LOVE LOVE it! The Spring '17 project was the first we worked with Judi as well ... and she is every bit as professional and fabulous as Jacquie! Judi's attention to detail and follow through is second to none!!! The two of them together are a fabulous team. They also show great concern at insuring customer satisfaction with decisions / products. Both went over and above beyond what we would have expected when we had a concern on a couple of our choices and whether we were comfortable with the look. BOTH Jacquie and Judi came to our home to meet with us and review our concerns and other options. The time, and effort, they spent in doing so was such that we ended up very comfortable with our choice (which happens to have been the original choice ... we just needed some hand holding in getting used to some of the visual changes). We've recommended Jacquie to friends over the years (prior to Jacquie and Judi having teamed up), and every one of them has been pleased and had similar experiences. Judi has brought even more to the party with her managerial experience (especially project management) - along with sharing Jacquie's fabulous ability to work with the client within the clients lifestyle choices. We highly recommend Garrett Mitchell Interiors!!! **★★★★★ — Yvette Fevurly, Sept. 2017** > I have had the pleasure of working with Judy & Jacquie on a lobby renovation for our condo building in Evanston. They listened to the owners and presented a design that was true to the architectural style of the building and answered all of the design challenges brought before them. Highly recommend this dynamic duo! **Comment from Garrett Mitchell Interiors:** > Thanks so very much, Yvette. You and your group have been fantastic to work with as well. Very compatible decision makers so far - let's keep going on this process! **★★★★★ — Donna Teti, Aug. 2017** > I thoroughly enjoyed working with Judy and Jacquie to decorate my living room. I found that they were very knowledgeable about sources and listened to my ideas and integrated them into their design. In particular, I found their choice of fabrics to be beautiful, varied and right on the mark. I was really stuck before I started to work with this pleasant and good-humored duo. **★★★★★ — Corrados' Inc, Aug. 2016** > It was a pleasure working with Garrett Mitchell Interiors this past spring on an out of town project in the Washington, DC area. They were seeking a local workroom to fabricate window treatments throughout the home. Both Jacquie and Judy were responsive and accessible throughout the entire project. Their designs and selection of top quality fabrics not only transformed the space, but allowed for clean and beautiful fabrication. We hope to collaborate with Jacquie and Judy on other projects in the DC area in the near future. **Comment from Garrett Mitchell Interiors:** > Thanks, Robert and Mickey! We thoroughly enjoyed working with you and REALLY appreciated the advice you gave us along the way on installation and fabrication details. You are the best and, we agree, more projects together in the DC area! **★★★★★ — C.G. Coe & Son, July 2016** > Jacquie and Judy were unbelievable to work with. We collaborated with them for an out of town client of theirs, which can prove difficult. It was anything but difficult. With their clear vision and attention to detail, everything came together seamlessly. They were able to actualize their clients vision and create truly beautiful spaces. Hope we get to work together again! **★★★★★ — sstans33, July 2016** > My husband and I recently bought a new condo and hired Garrett Mitchell Interiors to help us plan the space. They not only helped us downsize but also choose some new pieces to make our new place feel both homey and fabulous. Judy and Jacquie have great taste, connections with very interesting local retailers, and exhibit a welcome sensitivity to their clients' tastes and possible anxiety about change. They also work very well together. For example, they designed a built-in for one of our walls from a photo I had torn out of a magazine. They even found a wonderful craftsman to build it for us. We are delighted with their work and grateful for their patience, understanding, and discipline in staying on budget. **★★★★★ — Nick Gantes, July 2016** > Garrett & Mitchell Interiors is an outstanding firm, staffed by creative, ethical, and insightful professionals who exceeded my expectations at every turn. Jacquie Garrett and Judy Mitchell are expert listeners and unusually able to translate sometimes vague desires into a finished product that is nothing less than a symphony of materials, colors, textures, and placement. They have my complete loyalty as an enchanted customer. **★★★★★ — Main Street Rugs, July 2016** > Our experience working with Garrett Mitchell Interiors was excellent. Both Jacquie and Judy were professional, prepared, and knowledgeable about what their clients were looking for, making the interaction run very smoothly - in the end, everyone was happy. > > We hope to work with Garrett Mitchell Interiors again in the future! **★★★★★ — jhetherington87, April 2016** > My long and very happy experience with Jacquie Garrett includes her design of three different office suites for my law firm and two renovation projects in my home. I have only good things to say about her. She has wonderful, unerring taste, a great ability to visualize how the finished product will look before work on it has even begun, and a total commitment to making sure that the finished product is functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. Moreover, she is a joy to work with because she is unfailingly good-humored and enthusiastic. And, last but not least, she is very reasonable in her charges; in fact, if there is a problem with her billing, it is that she sometimes cheats herself by not charging for all of the time she spends on a project. I can say I was completely satisfied by her work on my projects. **★★★★★ — candace\_bennett62, March 2016** > Jacquie Garrett has amazing instincts and it's fascinating to see how she cultivates the look I’m going for. Last night she sent me an image of a colorful burlap sack that just happens to contain the color palette we’re working with for our north side Chicago condominium. We are waiting until the painting is done and new furniture arrives, then Jacquie will artfully compose the look, pulling everything together. I'm really looking forward to it, because I know what a keen eye she has. > > Not long ago, Jacquie staged our loft for sale. She did it with such simplicity and flair, we didn't want to leave! It was all done without any unnecessary costs, and it looked so lovely that sell we did, by the first weekend! Jacquie mainly re-positioned our existing furniture to its best advantage and devised a new palette to refresh the paint. She integrated the overall space throughout. A simple turning of a table here, accent brighter colors there, and it was practically a new home. > > As a visual artist, I'm extremely sensitive to color, complimentary colors, tone, and value, but I possess none of the skills of an interior designer. That’s why I’m in my element when working with a gifted designer like Jacquie, who intuitively grasps the look I’m going for. She turned our loft into a more sophisticated, but comfortable home. I’m so looking forward to seeing what she does with our new home, once she puts on the final touches! **★★★★★ — celestejohnson16, Feb. 2016** > My kitchen re-design is my second project with Jacquie, which is the best indicator of the contributions and service that she provides. She first listens to her clients 'concept' and works these into her design while bringing fresh, cool ideas too. She is mindful of the project budget and provides alternatives if the wish list is too much $. I like that she is direct, but at the same time respectful of others. I love both my kitchen and my bathroom and this is also attributable to the GC that she found for me. We worked with Judy too to get her ideas and bring her expertise in on another project related to windows. They are a great team and if and when i have a project \#3, i will be hiring them. **★★★★★ — Walter Pophin, Feb. 2016** > Jacquie and Judy helped us look at a couple of different projects. We had added a nice back yard deck to our house and we needed to "warm" it up some. They purchased pillows, drapes, furniture and furniture accessories along with installing some twinkling lights to make a fun ambience for the deck. It turned out great. > > Inside the house, we talked of new countertops, backsplashes, etc. in the kitchen but put that project on hold due to costs. > > They came up with a new plan to re-arrange our family room to make it feel like a more intimate space, use the space better and coordinate the look of the room. It looks great, we added some furniture, a new rug and it turned out really well. **★★★★★ — mark3072, Feb. 2016** > I have worked with Garrett Mitchell for many years as a fabricator and refurbisher of furniture. There work is always presented to me in a very precise and professional manner. With their guidance we have yet to disappoint any of their clients. I would highly recommend Garrett Mitchell for any interior projects. > > Mark Roe **★★★★★ — sandhamilton, Oct. 2015** > Jacquie Garrett helped me redesign our family living space with imagination and flair. She recommended colors and patterns that I would not have considered. She also brought me on an interior design shopping expedition which varied between out of the way upholsterers on Chicago's south side, to top end stores where we found gems, designs, patterns all of which blended to make our living area comfortable, unique and with maximum use of space. I would highly recommend working with Jacquie. It was affordable (we worked within a budget) and we are extremely satisfied with the result. **★★★★★ — skaull, March 2015** > Jacquie worked with me on a complete gut and remodel of a condo on the near north side of Chicago. She worked as my General Contractor, as I live in Boston. Not only did she design the IKEA kitchen, but she ensured that the contractor installed it with great attention to detail. Jacquie worked closely with me to configure and furnish the place; she sent me fabric swatches and tile samples to review, and emailed me numerous pictures of furniture, lighting and rugs. She got me great deals whenever possible, and introduced me to shops and online merchants that I never would have known about. Jacquie is super easy to work with and is a timely and effective communicator. Her billing statements were prompt and detailed. She can do all phases of a project, and I will use her again and refer her to friends. **★★★★★ — 93racer, March 2015** > Jacquie has reimagined every house we've ever lived in - and we would not consider moving into another house without her excellent help. She is a skilled project manager, has exquisite taste, and is incredibly resourceful in stretching dollars to their limit. > > In the last project Jacquie did for us, we moved from a condominium to a much larger house in another state. Jacquie remotely managed the whole design of the new house and the contractors, including a total repainting of the house interior, cabinet removal, new carpeting, curtains, new furniture, and updated bathrooms. We had 10 days between when the house became vacant and we needed to move in, so an incredibly tight schedule to do all the work. She was at our house when the moving truck arrived, and she supervised the unpacking. Our home was ready on time, and on budget. > > Her intuitive understanding of our taste means that our house is designed and decorated exactly to what we like - only better. Jacquie worked with our existing furniture and decor, and then put in special touches and great design elements that make our home feel incredibly warm and inviting. Almost every day, we marvel that our house is so beautiful - and all due to Jacquie's design. > > In summary, I can't recommend Jacquie highly enough and would be delighted to answer any questions potential clients might have. **★★★★★ — User, Sept. 2013** > JG Design provided the design and installation of a number of items for a small (4 person) office including creation of an elegant reception area and completing furnishings of several attorneys' offices. > > Jacquie listened carefully to what we wanted and offered options within what we wanted, and pointed out some things we had not considered that made the design much better. She was creative in using the small space we had available to best advantage. > > The work was quick and painless, the cost within budget, with cost being reviewed specifically at each stage so there were no surprises. Excellent effort with small adjustments after major work was complete and real attention to detail throughout. It could not have been done better, and the cost was modest. **★★★★★ — enidwinters, Sept. 2013** > Jacquie Garrett has been my go to person for staging single family and condominium listings in Chicago for several years. > She has a true talent for making the clients' furniture and possessions > work in unexpected and elegant ways, a fabulous eye for color, and she knows just what to add to pull a space together. > I highly recommend Jacquie for allmof her Interior Design and Staging Services. **★★★★★ — John Vriner, Aug. 2013** > As a general contractor, I have worked on numerous projects with JG Design over the last 7-8 years. > > I have found them easy to work with, timely with decisions and very professional in their execution of contract documents that accurately define the scope of work. > > They are flexible and willing to work with my firm with problem solving techniques to achieve the best possible outcomes for our clients. > > Jacquie Garrett, the owner of JG Design Chicago, is very good with color and material selections as well as lighting, furniture and accessory selections. > > She is certainly the client's advocate in terms of budget and schedule constraints and is always available to assist the client through the time consuming and numerous decisions that make up a high-end remodeling project. **Comment from Garrett Mitchell Interiors:** > Very nice review except that John goes back in forth between she, they and them. Can we change it to "I have found HER easy...in HER execution... SHE is flexible... > > Thanks! **★★★★★ — steffidamato, Aug. 2013** > Jacquie provided her services for a total renovation, new floors, new walls, installation of fireplace and cabinetry, bathroom and kitchen tile and flooring. > > The apartment is absolutely beautiful, some have said "spectacular". > No one I know works harder and has such an extraordinary attention to detail as Jacquie. > > I would highly recommend Jacquie Garrett. **★★★★★ — Sandy LeBeau, Aug. 2013** > Jacquie is an exceptional designer with a fantastic eye!! She is able to help with a small design project (such as giving a room a "facelift") or she can manage a large construction project from start to finish. Jacquie is great at understanding a person or company's own style, rather than imposing her own style upon them. I have worked with Jacquie on multiple corporate projects as well as personal projects, and have referred her to multiple friends and relatives. I can't say enough great things about Jacquie's work, plus she's a great lady to boot!!
