Two things come to mind when working with Tere. > One, she always solicits input from her trades people as part of the feasibility aspect of a project. And Two, she has a way getting us to extend our expertise to be just a little more creative. I once spent a good portion of an afternoon in the Morristown Library with Tere going through art books looking for just the right tone of a Venetian red for a project. She found the color she wanted and it took three layers of different reds to duplicate it in a wall glaze finish. The end result was stunning! > Tom Burns > Burns Painting & Contracting > Mendham, NJ **Comment from Beret Design Group, Inc.:** > I so appreciate a review from one of my Trades...I have a great deal of respect for the work of Tom Burns. I appreciate; not only, his expertise and knowledge of products and techniques; but also, his endless excitement in the creative process! We have collaborated on some amazing projects and I look forward to continuing that tradition! **★★★★★ — Donald Sebastian, Nov. 2013** > We moved into new construction in 1996. Stepping up from a small townhouse to 3000sf 4BR with about enough furniture to fill the MBR, we knew we needed help. We learned the difference between Interior design & Interior Decorating. Tere's redesign of the builder's lighting plan, critical changes to floorplan and materials selection provided a solid foundation for wall colors, draperies, rugs and furniture that have endured since we moved in. Tere continues to help us as a growing family adds new living requirements. Everything she selected with us has a unique flair and everything has endured over 17 years. We have recommended Beret to friends and continue to do so without hesitation. **Comment from Beret Design Group, Inc.:** > Thank you for taking the time in your busy schedule to review my firm...In this day of social media it is so very important for the professional to have reviews and 'like us" from amazing and supportive clients ....Hi to all and enjoy the Holidays! **★★★★★ — miralevenson, Nov. 2013** > I have known Beret Design Group for several years. Tere has been my designer in numerous homes, in three different states. > She is talented, professional and has excellent taste. > She also has great resources/ workrooms and includes you in the process if you want to be included. > She is also excellent when it comes to lighting. **★★★★★ — nancymischel, April 2013** > Tere Beresin of Beret Design group orchestrated my entire renovation project. Throughout the project Tere was an invaluable professional. Tere designed each room with diligence and creativity despite the fact that we were redesigning a home of 7 bedrooms, multiple enormous living spaces and two kitchens (and even two laundry rooms!). Ms. Beresin created the coloration of each room, lighting, furniture etc.. and the result is my magnificent home! Tere was wonderful to work with and I recommend Beret Design group highly. **★★★★★ — Stephanie Spar, March 2013** > I have had the pleasure of working with Tere for at least 16+ years. Tere has overseen all design aspects of my house. She designed the most wonderful library fabricated in mahagony and everyone is totally amazed and blown away with the details in this special room in our house. Only Tere had the patience to finally design my one of a kind backsplash for my kitchen, which ended up being a head of design in the industry at that time. Everyone who visits comments on the uniqueness of the backsplash. Tere has carefully helped me purchase several antique rugs for the house, sofas, many different lights, and has decorated every room in the house. Her guidance on the hand painting of several rooms shows Tere's expertise in color and finishes. Basically, Tere is great because she listens to her client and tries to work with their idea of "beauty" so your home reflects you and not anyone else. **★★★★★ — shelleysiegel, March 2013** > I have worked with Beret Design Group, Inc., particularly with designer Tere Bresin, on various residential projects for over twenty years. Her artistic ability is beyond question. Ms. Bresin is also able to discover what kinds of styles and objects will please an individual client, and help shape an outcome reflecting the client's taste. > > In addition, she is extremely practical when presenting choices. Although it is very gratifying to have visitors tell me how beautiful my home design is, I also know that the items are of excellent quality for their cost and will last. She also has a wealth of craftsman to draw on if needed for a project. > > The office and assistant design staff is entirely professional and a pleasure to deal with. Telephone calls and emails are answered promptly and efficiently. ## Selected projects - [Foyer- Before and After Photos](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/foyer-before-and-after-photos-pj-vj~4504605) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Mountain Lakes - Kitchen - Before and After](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mountain-lakes-kitchen-before-and-after-pj-vj~4504526) - Location: Mountain Lakes, NJ - Photos: 4 - [Elegant Morris County Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/elegant-morris-county-home-pj-vj~2233843) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 21 - Description: Renovation of 8,000 square foot home in Morris County NJ - [New York City Penthouse 2016](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-york-city-penthouse-2016-pj-vj~1661876) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Ocean County Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ocean-county-project-pj-vj~189441) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [HGTV Designer's Challenge Dining Room Design](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hgtv-designer-s-challenge-dining-room-design-pj-vj~189471) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [New York Penthouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-york-penthouse-pj-vj~189456) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [New York City Apartment](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-york-city-apartment-pj-vj~189454) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Morris County Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/morris-county-home-pj-vj~189450) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Mountain Lakes Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mountain-lakes-home-pj-vj~189446) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Hudson river Apartment](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hudson-river-apartment-pj-vj~189431) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 [See all 11 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/beret-design-group-inc-pfvwus-pf~629445297) ## Ideabooks - [From Design Sketch to Completion- Custom Mirrored Screen](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/80985381/list/from-design-sketch-to-completion-custom-mirrored-screen) — 3 ideas - [From Design Sketch to Completion- Side Board](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/80622151/list/from-design-sketch-to-completion-side-board) — 2 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/beretdesigngroup) ## Community Q&A **Q: Lovely room** *(in Photo Questions)* This room feels so elegant. If you are willing to share I would love to know where this light can be purchased from. Thank you. A: The Chandelier is from Niermann Weeks ... this chandelier was a custom version of the Danieli Collection. **Q: Beautiful Light Fixture!!** *(in Photo Questions)* I would love to have the ceiling light fixture in my guestroom. Can you tell me where I would be able to purchase it? A: West Essex Lighting in West Caldwell NJ **Q: Can I use and upholstered standard sz. headboard on a queen sz. bed?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: There is a 6" difference in size...would not look very good...... **Q: Carpet** *(in Photo Questions)* Love the carpet! Who makes it and where can I purchase it? A: Thanks for your inquiry..It is a custom design that we planned and had made in Katmandu....It is a subtle grey on grey viney, leafy pattern. **Q: Love the rug!** *(in Photo Questions)* Where might I find this or something similar? Please and thank you! A: Many times as a designer we work with items that the client owns and plan a space around those items. This fun black and white rug belonged to the client and I decided to play it with the soft lavender on the wallls and grey linens in this guest bedroom...Contact your favorite quality rug store and see if they can help you with finding such a rug. That is what I would do... I actually found a fun black and white rug from IKEA in the last six months....but it was smaller. **Q: Where are these chairs from?? Or who makes them? They are beautiful! T** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Thank you for your question. They were custom made for our client because they wanted the pieces to have a tight seat, tight back and a swivel tub. We do all we can to meet our client's needs and in this certain instance, custom was the best choice.Thank you for the comment as well. They are quite beautiful! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-05.*
