**★★★★★ — Kari S, May 2024**

> The transformation of our bonus room has exceeded our expectations. Francine was amazing to work with and has an exceptional blend of style and functionality.  The space was a mismatched, awkward space that has been changed into a fashionable and usable retreat within our home. Francine was able to incorporate our style preferences into chic furniture pieces that not only serve their purpose but also add flair to the room. The introduction of vibrant accents and stylish décor elements has injected life into the space, making it feel inviting and dynamic. We highly recommend Freshen Design and Francine!

**Comment from Freshen Design:**

> Thank you Kari! It's gratifying to know your new space is loved and will be used often. I look forward to working with you again!

**★★★★★ — HU-721538729, Nov. 2023**

> I recently had the pleasure of consulting with Francine for my apartment's interior design. From our initial meeting, it was evident that she possesses a deep understanding of design and a genuine passion for her work!
>
> Even though I couldn't proceed with a full project due to personal constraints, Francine was incredibly understanding and still offered invaluable design tips tailored to my space and needs. Her recommendations, especially on maximizing space and incorporating organic elements, were really insightful. If you're looking for a designer who is not only talented but also compassionate and understanding, I highly recommend Francine. I'll certainly be reaching out to her for any future design needs.

**Comment from Freshen Design:**

> Thank you Jeffrey! I look forward to working with you again - no matter the scope of work :)

**★★★★★ — Dorcas, Aug. 2020**

> I am so happy that I found Freshen Design. Our apartment was transformed into a home that is now my favorite place to be. Francine found solutions that worked within our budget, timeline, functional needs, and personal taste while also encouraging us to think about some things differently than we would have otherwise. She was a joy to work with, always reliable and responsive to all questions and concerns. Ultimately, the finished product reflected an authentic and slightly more stylish version of ourselves-exactly what we wanted. I would certainly recommend Freshen Design and hope to work with Francine again.

**Comment from Freshen Design:**

> Thank you Dorcas!  It was such a joy to work with you and Nik.

**★★★★★ — mdstolber, Aug. 2020**

> So grateful I found Francine with Freshen Design.  Started with one room and without question, I will continue to use her services and keen design eye with more rooms in my home.  Professional and easy and to work with and never felt pressure.   Her pace is comfortable with my level of anxiety around change.  She offers multiple ideas that are realistic to my lifestyle and budget.   Best connection with a designer that works with her clients each step of the way.  Working with a designer collaboratively feels like I have a designer level home with my own personal style!

**Comment from Freshen Design:**

> Thank you Megan!  It was fun collaborating.  I'm looking forward to working together again!

**★★★★★ — Chung Li, Aug. 2020**

> When we bought a 70's era house, we knew that there would be much work to be done. The kitchen was barely functional, the bathrooms were tiny, and wallpaper was peeling off the walls. We found Freshen Design on Thumbtack, and decided to go with Francine based on what we saw on her web site. From design to execution, she did an amazing job maximizing the overall space and layout. She provided several concepts which we used to collaborate and the final designs literally breathed new life into each room! Her keen eye and attention to detail were crucial in guiding us throughout the project. We are loving our contemporary “new” home.

**Comment from Freshen Design:**

> Thank you Chung! I really enjoyed collaborating on this big project with you.

**★★★★★ — Christina Gislason, July 2020**

> After locally "shopping" around for different interior designers, I decided to go with Freshen Design after reviewing samples of the interior design work they've previously done and based on my positive discussions with the owner, Francine. I found Francine to be attentive to my needs-- she has a very keen eye for design and she tried her best to work with my budget. Whenever I raised any concerns, she took the time to listen and consider my opinion or needs. She was completely transparent when outlining the pros and cons of different design options. There were several instances where she went above and beyond to deliver the results I was looking for. Overall, extremely happy with the results and several friends have already complimented on my home's transformation!

**Comment from Freshen Design:**

> Christina, thank you for the kind words. I had so much fun working on your project!
