I am so happy with the process and outcome of my major renovation. Deborah exceeded all of my expectations and did a great job handling every aspect of the new design and remodel. Her attention to detail shined through complimenting her amazing taste. She is so easy to work with that it made working with her an absolute pleasure. Deborah made a stressful situation easy, enjoyable and carefree. I am definitely very very lucky to have found such a kind and professional designer to lead my project. **★★★★★ — elizabeth knowles, March 2017** > After a disastrous experience with contractor on a kitchen renovation, we hired Emery Design Associates to come in and advise us on how we might proceed. It is never easy to enter into the middle of a project and even more difficult when the previous contractor's work is calamitous. I thought perhaps she might be able to help salvage the project from the existing damage. To my delight and surprise she not only rescued the project but she also completely transformed our kitchen pantry space! We are so impressed with Deborah's expertise in redesigning the existing kitchen into a much more stylish and pragmatic configuration as well as the professionalism and responsiveness of her terrific crew. I was a little nervous leaving for 3 weeks while the renovation took place but when we returned we were elated to walk into our beautiful renovated space. It is an immense pleasure to work with Deborah and I cannot recommend her more highly! **★★★★★ — Stefka Nazarkewycz, Jan. 2017** > I think of Deborah as our life saver. When we moved, my husband and I were victims of a terrible, nightmarish renovation and design experience. The best thing we did was to hire Deborah to help us correct all the renovation problems, and finish designing our apartment so that we could love it once again. > What I love about working with Deborah is her sensitivity, patience and sense of style. It's all about you, what works for you, about creating YOUR beautiful home. Deborah takes her cues from you, then enhances the experience by introducing you to new ideas and suggestions so that what you end up with is YOUR vision, but better. On top of that she is efficient, energetic and unfailingly honest, and uses amazing sub-contractors. **★★★★★ — James McQuade, Nov. 2016** > We hired Deborah to manage the complete gut-renovation of our NYC 3-bedroom, 4-bath, duplex Coop apartment, and then to decorate the apartment with new furniture and fixtures. Deborah handled every aspect of the project, including designing the layout of the newly-configured apartment, producing the architectural plans, obtaining Coop Board approval, NYC DOB permits and approval, hiring and supervising the contractors, selecting the materials, fixtures, appliances, central air system, audio-visual, and finishes. > > Deborah was terrific. She made sure she fully understood our tastes, preferences, and budget before beginning the project. She guided us through the selection of a team of contractors who fit our needs and shared Deborah’s approach – careful, responsive, can-do attitude, honest, trustworthy, and committed to quality and relationships with clients. She guided the project to completion on time and on budget. > > Deborah is a pleasure to work with. She is fun to be with, has a sense of humor, and understands what it takes to create a home in the 21st century. She has a careful eye and great sense of style, but was also extremely sensitive to find what reflects our own personal style and needs. We could not have been more pleased with all of the work she did for us, and we recommend her without reservation. She helped us create our home that we are thrilled to share with others. You will be in great hands with Deborah! **★★★★★ — Karen Dukess, Nov. 2016** > Lots of designers have good taste, and Deborah has that in spades, but she also has professionalism, patience and knowledge. Helping us redesign two rooms - a living room and a den - she had inspired ideas and also respected our preferences and budget, helping us to know when to splurge and when it wasn't worth it. She has great contacts and sources in the design field and, most important, handled all the details of two custom-made built-ins that were not easy to create and build but work beautifully and fit seamlessly in our Arts and Crafts home. Deborah is easy to work with and fun. I highly recommend her. **★★★★★ — Napach Design Group, July 2016** > Deborah has impeccable taste and a keen eye for design. Having worked with her on many renovation projects, I am always astounded by her strong and consistent work ethic. She is one of the most thorough and detail-oriented people I’ve worked with. In addition to having a great eye, she is incredibly organized and clearly cares deeply about her clients’ satisfaction. ## Selected projects - [Minimalist Bachelor Pad](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/minimalist-bachelor-pad-pj-vj~6391643) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 6 - [Westside Riverfront](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/westside-riverfront-pj-vj~6061996) - Location: New York, NY - Photos: 14 - [East Side Solace](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/east-side-solace-pj-vj~5501045) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Urban Elegance](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/urban-elegance-pj-vj~5501032) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Westchester Retreat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/westchester-retreat-pj-vj~2207400) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Big Sky Ski House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/big-sky-ski-house-pj-vj~2167872) - Location: Big Sky, MT - Photos: 10 - [Luxe Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/luxe-renovation-pj-vj~1681794) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Upper West Side Townhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/upper-west-side-townhouse-pj-vj~1681194) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Beaux Arts Classic](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/beaux-arts-classic-pj-vj~1681174) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Upper East Side Modern](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/upper-east-side-modern-pj-vj~483217) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Union Square](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/union-square-pj-vj~483216) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Sutton Place Aerie](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sutton-place-aerie-pj-vj~483211) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Park Avenue Duplex](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/park-avenue-duplex-pj-vj~483210) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [East River Luxe](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/east-river-luxe-pj-vj~483204) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 [See all 14 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/emery-design-associates-llc-pfvwus-pf~402724607) ## Community Q&A **Q: gorgeous bed cover** *(in Photo Questions)* Where did I get the bed cover from?
