The women are beyond excited about their new design and everything was done professionally and on time. I would certainly use her services in the future! I can not say enough about how pleased we are! **★★★★★ — Pamela Yoder, March 2017** > My husband and I worked with Nora on the redesign and updating of our kitchen. Nora did a great job of taking our kitchen into the present day without taking away from or altering the style of our 1860's cottage. Nora was a great help in rethinking the way we use our rooms, suggesting turning the formal parlor into our dinning room which resulted in a fresh more open layout of our home accented by her paint color selections. **★★★★★ — Ed Madden Woodworks, March 2017** > After working with Ed and Nora on several historical projects, I have come to greatly admire their respect for the existing structure as well as respecting their clients' wishes. The attention to detail is unmatched and their designs blend seamlessly between old and new. The results are always happy clients. > -Ed Madden > Ed Madden Woodworks **★★★★★ — Stephanie Myrick, Nov. 2016** > My husband and I worked with Nora on the interior re-design of our home and she was absolutely fantastic.

She was very professional and her expertise saved us countless hours and energy. > > Nora put us at ease and we never felt awkward when we had to re-evaluate an idea and stick within our budget.

Most importantly, she helped us make the most of treasured items we already owned and transformed this house into our home. > > Her ideas, eye for design, and talent make Nora a real joy to work with! **Comment from Edward H. Wikoff Architect AIA, NCARB:** > Thank you for your kind words Stephanie and allowing me to highlight your homes great architectural features and family treasures! **★★★★★ — rrhbradley, July 2016** > My husband and I hired Ed and Nora Wikoff in December 2015, to design our backyard paradise. The completed project has more than exceeded our expectations. It was a joy to work with such knowledgeable, professional, talented individuals. They both kept us informed and on top of every aspect of the project. It made the process as painless as possible. Since then I have worked with both on numerous projects. Nora has been so helpful in the selection of exterior, as well as interior paint colors, fabric, and furniture. They are never too busy to answer a question or return an email or phone call. We are so lucky to have found them, and look forward to working with both on many future projects. **Comment from Edward H.

We are still amazed by the lovely details and harmony of the entire design. The craftsmanship that was surprising to find in this era... > > It's architecture as art. > > Nora, as project manager and interior designer, made sure the architectural harmony was also reflected in the finishing details. Besides that, she was committed to making sure the house was perfect - and it is. Her design eye also extended to the interior - choosing the right furniture and perfect colors. > > What do we love about our house? The wonderful flow that's perfect for entertaining. A kitchen that makes it fun to cook. Private quarters that feel just right. An added second floor guest suite that is sunny and bright. > > The New Orleans Courtyard designed for our backyard makes people gasp when they see it - it's THAT magical with a fountain, iron fire pit and custom table. > > We are grateful for every aspect of the work that went into our lovely, forever home. It would not have been possible without the talent of the Wikoff team! **★★★★★ — karlynthompson, Feb. 2013** > Complete architectural and design services/project management for the renovation of a 1930s mission style home in the New Orleans area. ## Selected projects - [Bay St. Louis Traditional Gulf Coast New Build](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bay-st-louis-traditional-gulf-coast-new-build-pj-vj~633414) - Location: Bay Saint Louis, MS - Photos: 6 - [Back Yard Retreat](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/back-yard-retreat-pj-vj~1822409) - Location: Bay Saint Louis, MS - Photos: 10 - Description: Complete renovation including the removal of four trees before construction could begin.
