Helly has great contacts in the home remodel world, including a general contractor, flooring people, kitchen appliances people, countertops options- everyone you need, Helly can find them. Helly and Jessie were able to find items that we needed and kept the process manageable. When the inevitable problems occurred, Helly and her team, worked tirelessly to find solutions that kept the remodel moving forward and us, happy. > > Both my husband and I found Helly and Jessie to be easy to talk to. They are very professional, highly organized, and honest. They are great people to work with during any "refresh" of a home. We would be happy to work with them for any other remodeling needs. **★★★★★ — SED, Nov. 2025** > Great experience working with Helly and Jessie at Design Matters Home on the total remodel of our home! Our formerly dated and tired space is now both stylish and functional, with a gorgeous new kitchen, three beautiful bathrooms and many more special touches throughout. It feels like “us” and we absolutely love it! **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Thank you Susan for the review!

All in all our experience was terrific. We will work with her again! **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Thanks Wendy! It was so much fun working with you, and your house looks gorgeous! Love that Nova Blue and everything else we worked on!! **★★★★★ — aloewus, Oct. 2024** > Design Matters Home - is incredible to work with. Helly and her team helped me design the perfect kitchen for my family. She has great attention to detail, excellent local connections and a great contractor network. She helped with multiple quotes for various options, saving me money where I didn’t know I could. I will use Design Matters Home again for my next project. **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Thanks Amy! I am so excited that your kitchen remodel is done, and you can enjoy your new space! You were such a joy to work with, and so generous supplying me with eggs from your ladies every visit. **★★★★★ — Lindsay Luth, Jan. 2024** > We are thrilled with how our home renovations turned out. Helly did a fantastic job guiding us through a (near) full house project which we had never done before. Our main bathroom is our favorite and all the details throughout ( window treatments, wall paper, fixtures) complete our space. **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Thanks Lindsay! It was awesome working with you and John, and I love that your bathroom was featured in Colorado Homes & Lifestyles! **★★★★★ — mdwdds, Dec. 2023** > Certainly! I'm glad to hear about your positive experience with Design Matters and Helly. Here's a review: > > I had the pleasure of working with Design Matters and specifically Helly for my house remodel, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. Helly's attention to detail and design expertise truly transformed my space. Every aspect of the project was handled with professionalism, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Design Matters for anyone seeking outstanding results and a seamless remodeling experience. **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Melissa- I enjoyed working with you on your remodel. It was fun and such a pleasure working with you, and I am so happy you love your new space. > I am super excited to get professional photos done! **★★★★★ — Alison Long, Nov. 2023** > Helly was a pleasure to work with! She helped us redesign a bathroom, kitchen, and refurnish two other rooms.

We highly recommend her! **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Thank you Alison for the kind review! I enjoyed working with you and Brooks very much!! **★★★★★ — ydlainez, Aug. 2023** > My husband and I hired Design Home Matters to help us with a remodel of our home’s kitchen, bathroom and to choose paint colors. Helly is the main person from Design Home Matters with whom we worked. From the first time we met Helly, we felt really comfortable with her as she is very friendly and easy to speak with. Helly works with a great group of people, her own internal folks as well as cabinet designer/architect, general contractor, countertop, etc. > > I believe she made the design process easy as it could have been overwhelming. She asked and listened to what we wanted. My husband and I usually gravitate towards two different styles, and I think she was able to listen and combine our styles to create our vision for the kitchen and bath. I usually have lots of questions and Helly answered them in a way that I could understand and was nice about it. > > Helly provided us with a proposal, and she was mindful of the hours she charged and came in within the budget. > > As with any home remodel, there is only so much budget to go around and Helly was able to accommodate our remodel budget so that she chose higher finishes where needed and more budget friendly alternatives where it made sense. > > Helly is professional, honest, a good listener, trustworthy and just overall a great person to work with. We would happily work with Helly and her team again. **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Thank you Yesenia! It was a joy to work with you and Brett, and I hope you are enjoying your new space! I appreciate the time you have taken to write such a thoughtful review. Call me anytime with any design questions! **★★★★★ — Brent, Dec. 2022** > Helly did a great job designing a fantastic new master bathroom for us after a leak caused our old shower to be unusable. She is a great listener, very creative, and was very responsive to our questions throughout the renovation. **Comment from Design Matters Home:** > Thanks Brent! It was lovely working with you and Stephanie :). I am glad you are enjoying your new bathroom :). **★★★★★ — Kristine Schin, Sept. 2022** > Our builder gave us Helly's name and we're so glad he did. I needed help reviewing our design plan with a professional. Within 75min Helly suggested a different orientation of our kitchen plan, using tile instead of luxury vinyl for our bathroom floor, and helped with color choices. We're making all of Helly's recommended changes. Helly gave us confidence and peace of mind. We would recommend Helly for your remodel, decorating needs. **★★★★ — Anita Dolliver, Dec. 2021** > Helly was awesome at helping us navigate our differences in opinion, which made the process of remodeling our bathrooms so much easier. She was also great at providing resources and tips so that we could do some of the work ourselves to save some money. I highly recommend Helly! **★★★★★ — cblaycock123, Oct. 2021** > Helly is an excellent designer. She not only has a broad knowledge base about the design process, but she is a kind and trustworthy person. We had a vision for our remodel and Helly helped us achieve beautiful spaces throughout our home that exceeded our expectations. She was readily available for questions and was constantly ordering us material samples that reflected her beautiful taste and streamlined our material selection process. We would highly recommend Helly and her team at Design Matters Home. ## Selected projects - [Fairways - Featured in Colorado Homes & Lifestyles Sept/Oct 2023](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fairways-featured-in-colorado-homes-and-lifestyles-sept-oct-2023-pj-vj~6795072) - Location: Longmont, CO - Photos: 12 - [Garfield Ave](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/garfield-ave-pj-vj~7464414) - Location: Louisville, CO - Photos: 3 - [Bitterroot](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bitterroot-pj-vj~6031750) - Location: Lafayette, CO - Photos: 15 - [Modern Mountain](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-mountain-pj-vj~819010) - Location: Louisville, CO - Photos: 8 - Description: A spacious modern mountain kitchen, dining, wet bar, family space, and guest bathroom, with radiant heat cement flooring and exposed wood beams. - [Manorwood - Featured in Colorado Homes & Lifstyles Jan/Feb 2024](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/manorwood-featured-in-colorado-homes-and-lifstyles-jan-feb-2024-pj-vj~7088796) - Location: Louisville, CO - Photos: 6 - [Snowmass](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/snowmass-pj-vj~6518772) - Location: Boulder, CO - Photos: 6 - [Falcon Court](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/falcon-court-pj-vj~6470442) - Location: Louisville, CO - Photos: 3 - [Colorado Awards for Remodeling Excellence Winner of Best Standard Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/colorado-awards-for-remodeling-excellence-winner-of-best-standard-kitchen-pj-vj~2243541) - Location: Broomfield, CO - Photos: 4 - Description: Stikwood wall with clear jar light fixtures - [Akron Place](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/akron-place-pj-vj~5834449) - Location: Superior, CO - Photos: 7 - [Saint Andrew's Lane](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/saint-andrew-s-lane-pj-vj~5416327) - Location: Louisville, CO - Photos: 5 - [12th St.](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/12th-st-pj-vj~728913) - Location: Boulder, CO - Photos: 6 - [Highland Park](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/highland-park-pj-vj~1972808) - Location: Broomfield, CO - Photos: 7 - Description: Award Winning Kitchen Rustic Modern Cottage - [Classic Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classic-bathroom-pj-vj~5827950) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Colorado Award for Remodeling Excellence Gold Winner Raintree](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/colorado-award-for-remodeling-excellence-gold-winner-raintree-pj-vj~2484278) - Location: Louisville, CO - Photos: 6 - [Colorado Award for Remodeling Excellence Silver Winner Sweetwater](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/colorado-award-for-remodeling-excellence-silver-winner-sweetwater-pj-vj~2496692) - Location: Boulder, CO - Photos: 6 - [9th St.](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/9th-st-pj-vj~1096982) - Location: Boulder, CO - Photos: 4 - Description: Modern Kitchen - [Alpine Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/alpine-bathroom-pj-vj~1052400) - Location: Boulder, CO - Photos: 13 - [Fairfield](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fairfield-pj-vj~5822958) - Location: Louisville, CO - Photos: 6 - [Lexington Tuscan Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lexington-tuscan-kitchen-pj-vj~1435366) - Location: Lafayette, CO - Photos: 10 - [Classic Modern Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classic-modern-home-pj-vj~844059) - Location: Longmont, CO - Photos: 7 [See all 30 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/design-matters-home-pfvwus-pf~629240449) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/151734850/list/wish-list) — 2 ideas - [Fehr Kraemer Bar Thoughts](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/135173040/list/fehr-kraemer-bar-thoughts) — 6 ideas - [Foreman Ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/112706434/list/foreman-ideabook) — 8 ideas - [Kitchen Remodel Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/72105656/list/kitchen-remodel-ideas) — 2 ideas - [12th St. TV Room](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/2208581/list/12th-st-tv-room) — 4 ideas - [Office inspiration](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/52669/list/office-inspiration) — 1 idea [See all 6 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/helly) ## Community Q&A **Q: what kind of countertops are the grey ones** *(in Photo Questions)* Color and stone type?
