I am a busy professional and Adair took all the planning and communicating with contractors off my plate. She involved me in the fun, easy parts and took on the rest herself. I really appreciated that. She also pushed me in a good way. She had a vision of what my dining room could be when I couldn’t see it yet. I’m so glad I trusted her because my dining room went from being unused and a catch-all for random things, to a beautiful space for family dinners and conversation. She communicated with me throughout the process, was just super fun to work with, and got the job done in a very reasonable timeframe. I would 100% recommend Adair, especially if you want a renovation done and don’t have the time to manage it. Adair is the person for you! **Comment from Ambiance By Adair:** > Allison, Thank you for the kind review! It was an absolute pleasure working with you! **★★★★★ — Benjamin Bagozzi, June 2025** > Ambiance by Adair recently helped me to redesign and remodel my den into a sophisticated "bourbon lounge". The renovation entailed a new ceiling; all new painting, carpeting, lighting, & wallpaper; the addition of custom cabinets, bar, and counters; new furniture; and new decor--among other items. > > I truly couldn't be happier with the outcome and experience from top to bottom. From the very start, Adair's meticulous attention to detail and project planning ensured that I had a crystal clear vision of the entire renovation and all associated expenses. Her remodeling choices not only grasped my needs & tastes but also identified a host of innovative approaches to transforming what was originally a narrow and uninviting room into what has easily become my favorite room in the house. Every time I walk into my new bourbon lounge I feel like I'm stepping into a boutique hotel bar, and my friends and family are consistently blown away by the space. > > When it comes to remaking and styling home spaces, Adair's creativity, attention to detail, and impeccable tastes are bar none. Every element in my new lounge--from the recessed and ambient pendant lighting, to the rich color palette, to the custom shelving and curated decor--was thoughtfully chosen and perfectly executed. I have extensively renovated virtually every room in my 1920s farmhouse at this point and I can honestly say that Adair's work is the highest quality in the area. > > In addition to Adair's exceptional design work and planning, she was also an absolute delight to work with. She was professional, personable, responsive, and incredibly organized. She managed the project seamlessly, coordinating contractors, sourcing unique pieces, and keeping everything on schedule and within budget. And she repeatedly anticipated and addressed issues (that I would have never even had thought of!) well before they arose. > > If you're looking for a designer who combines unparalleled creative vision with top-notch project management and client care, I highly recommend Ambiance by Adair. In fact, I'm already working with her on the next space in my house to transform! **★★★★★ — HU-362678348, Dec. 2024** > Adair was super helpful during the entire design process. We had never used a designer before, she clearly explained the different levels of support she could provide us and worked within our budget. She was responsive anytime we needed her. Overall we loved the space planning, colors, and designs she provided us. We would definitely use her again on future projects! **★★★★★ — sl8rs3, Sept. 2024** > After having our kitchen cabinets refaced by Revelare, we found ourselves overwhelmed with so many options for flooring, lighting, countertops, backsplash, paint, etc. I was afraid of making a costly mistake, I so reached out to Adair for help. Her expertise helped us achieve the warm, cozy look we wanted in our white kitchen. She connected us with contractors who were willing to work within our time frame and guided us every step of the way. We couldn’t be happier with the final result! **Comment from Ambiance By Adair:** > Thank you Dara, It was such a pleasure helping you bring your kitchen to life! **★★★★★ — Julie B Wise, Sept. 2024** > We couldn’t be more pleased with the impact Adair had on selling our home. Her exceptional talent in curating furniture and accessories transformed each room, creating an inviting atmosphere that undoubtedly contributed to the quick sale. From the initial consultation through to delivery and pickup, Adair provided outstanding service and attention to detail. We highly recommend Ambiance by Adair for anyone seeking top-notch staging and decorating expertise. **Comment from Ambiance By Adair:** > Thank you Julie! It was a pleasure working with you and Fred and helping you > get a quick sale. **★★★★★ — Benjamin Bagozzi, May 2024** > Ambiance by Adair completely re-did my front porch from top to bottom this May. This included new design, furniture, decor, plantings, floor covering, candles, and many other accents. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. After little-to-no use for 5+ years, the porch is now used daily and is the talk of the neighborhood. > > I was so impressed with how much thought, care, and communication went into the process. Adair left no detail overlooked, found me amazing deals on a number of items, and always reached out to incorporate my input. I was truly blown away by the company's professionalism and expertise and will be a repeat customer for many years to come. **Comment from Ambiance By Adair:** > Ben, it has been such a pleasure working with you. Your decisiveness made this process smooth sailing so we were able to get a lot done in short period of time and well within budget! Thanks for being great to work with. **★★★★★ — living and family room decor, April 2024** > Adair is a wonderful person with whom to work. She is very talented, with great ideas and suggestions, all while taking the client's needs and wants into consideration. I would highly recommend her! **★★★★★ — mollywood1429, Jan. 2024** > I have worked with Ambiance By Adair for two large projects. The first project was in 2019, which was a large kitchen/living room remodel. The design that Adair recommended/completed for this project was amazing and increased the value of our home significantly! In 2023, we decided to downsize and purchased a home that need a total renovation inside and out. We contacted Adair immediately and she began working her magic! She recommended that we create an opening from the living room to the kitchen that I would never have thought of, and it created a flow to the home that makes sense and opened the space. Her ability to look at my inspiration pictures, add her design magic, and create my dream house is amazing! > > If you are considering using a designer for your renovation (which I highly recommend), Adair is the Designer for you!! **★★★★★ — Linda D. Lewis, Jan. 2024** > Knowing my decoration limitations and difficulty choosing paint colors, I needed help. Adair came to my rescue. After our first meeting, I knew she was the perfect fit to help us transform our home. We wanted to create a welcoming and cozy atmosphere for us and our guests. Adair provided her colorization expertise for all areas of our home, enhancing each room with light fixtures, rugs, artwork, plants, and other accessories to create a natural inviting flow throughout each space. She also provided space planning for our living room and helped us to purchase two new chairs. I love Adair’s natural inclinations, confidence, and flexibility, all without judgement. Utilizing Ambiance by Adair services was certainly the best answer for our decorating needs. **★★★★★ — HU-817344488, Dec. 2023** > Adair has been so instrumental helping me figure out the function and form of my big open room in our new house. > We essentially started as a blank slate and from there were able to find the purpose for different areas which included paint colors, molding, area rugs and furniture placement > Adairs vision along with my input has transformed my first floor to a dream vision and has such a cosy vibe that everyone who comes into the space are wowed by the final project. > She is , in my opinion, one of the greatest designers I have ever used and I am in love with my design! > She just gets it and fully captures the vision of what you want! **★★★★★ — Lisa Shirk, Dec. 2023** > Adair is great to work with!! She is passionate about her work and that is evident in her approach to design and attention to detail! We are thrilled with our project from beginning to end!! **★★★★★ — framer\_07, Feb. 2023** > Had great ideas and was very helpful in making the space to our liking and even gave us ideas we hadn't thought of. ## Selected projects - [Kitchen Addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-addition-pj-vj~7418652) - Location: Lancaster, PA - Photos: 16 - [TIMBER ROAD RENOVATION](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/timber-road-renovation-pj-vj~7417082) - Location: Mount Gretna, PA - Photos: 12 - [Home Bar](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/home-bar-pj-vj~6779751) - Location: Lancaster, PA - Photos: 13 - [Home Staging for Kitchen / Family Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/home-staging-for-kitchen-family-room-pj-vj~6933415) - Location: Lancaster, PA - Photos: 15 - [Denver Home Interior Design of Kitchen, Dining Room & Home Office](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/denver-home-interior-design-of-kitchen-dining-room-and-home-office-pj-vj~6032661) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 30 - Description: My client was renovating their kitchen.
