### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Helen M. Rodriguez, Aug. 2026**

> I highly recommend Sharon Miyano to provide design services for home remodeling. Sharon is very honest, intelligent, skilled, experienced, imaginative, and gem of a person to work with. Sharon appropriately charges her customers to the scope of the project. I did an extensive and complete interior and exterior remodel of my home. By having an excellent collaboration with Sharon and my contractor, everything came out beautifully. Sharon is detailed, flexible, and responsible, as she helped me with materials, as well as providing more than one design perspective on specific areas of the house. I had a large project at my house. Sharon and my contractor literally transformed my 72 year old compartmentalized  house to an open, functional, comfortable, attractive home. Sharon is a true professional, fun to work with, and minimizes the stress that is inherent in home remodeling. I would hire Sharon again, if I had another home remodeling project to do. Sharon is excellent in her field of home design and remodeling. I highly recommend her.

**★★★★★ — Michelle Saykally and James Hinkley, July 2026**

> In my whole life, I've only ever worked with one other designer besides Sharon — and there's simply no comparison. She is wonderfully intelligent and sensitive, with a rare gift for listening and engaging you in the process, so you feel cared for and brought along on the journey every step of the way.
>
> Our home is a lovely 1909 Historic Craftsman, and we dreamed of a quiet, peaceful space filled with beautiful colors, tiles, wood, and glass. Sharon didn't just bring that vision to life — she uncovered even more beauty in our home than we knew was there.
>
> If you're tentative about trusting someone with your home and your vision, I understand — but seriously consider Sharon. You'll be embarking on a wonderful and artful journey, guided by someone who truly has your best interests at heart.

**★★★★★ — Anne Falk, May 2026**

> Working with SMID Studio on our out-of-state home remodel and furnishing project was a seamless and highly productive collaboration. We divided responsibilities in a way that worked beautifully: I handled all project management — coordinating with the contractor, responding to job site questions, and managing material ordering — while she focused on what she does best: design.
>
> Her material selections were thoughtful and well-suited to the mid-century modern aesthetic we were after, and she was always available to answer design questions as they arose during construction. That clarity of role made the virtual arrangement not just workable, but genuinely efficient.
>
> Where she truly distinguished herself was in furniture sourcing and selection. Rather than defaulting to an all-new approach, she curated a mix of vintage and thrifted pieces alongside new purchases — a strategy that added authenticity and character to the finished space while also delivering real value. The result feels collected and intentional rather than catalog-fresh, which is exactly the spirit of good mid-century modern design.
>
> For anyone considering a remote design engagement, her process is well-suited to it. She is focused, responsive, and brings a discerning eye that elevated every room. We would work with her again without hesitation.

**★★★★★ — Ann M., April 2026**

> Sharon was very sensitive to our design preferences, cost-conscious, flexible, and easy to work with. She is warm, responsive, diplomatic, and enthusiastic, as well as a creative problem-solver. We are extremely happy with the beautiful work she did on our two bathrooms, kitchen, dining room, and courtyard patio in our 1920s Spanish-style house, which maintained a period feel while providing much-needed updates. We would highly recommend Sharon to anyone considering working with her!

**★★★★★ — Robert Mendelsohn, April 2026**

> Working with Sharon was a fantastic experience.  Super helpful, timely and knowledgeable.  We would engage her again without hesitation.  Highest recommendation!

> Sharon Miyano - SMID
>
> I worked recently with Sharon Miyano on a 1927 Spanish Bungalow single family rental property. Having a very clear vision and being very detail oriented myself, it was important for me to find a designer that understood this vision and was meticulously detail oriented. Being a historic property, it was additionally important to keep the integrity and character of the home while making necessary updates. Sharon was excellent. She was extremely professional, timely in producing drawings, cost conscious and patient with the constant back and forth and revisions. She has a keen eye and works well on both historic properties as well as more modern. She made the endless decisions manageable and the final result is wonderful. I would highly recommend Sharon for any remodel project.

**★★★★★ — Cecilia Nakajima, Jan. 2025**

> In the process of deciding what to do with my late parents' house, I reached out to Sharon to see what life she could bring to the space. She created a STUNNING floor plan that incorporated the elements I was hoping for (open kitchen, modern bed/baths, taking down a wall to open up a family room) while also adding professional touches that made it really come together beautifully.
>
> Throughout the discussion and design process Sharon was highly detail-orientated and communicative. I appreciate that she double checked what I was asking for by showing me samples and mock-ups, and making lots of suggestions based on her expertise. She thoughtfully blended her own style perfectly with my vision for the house, and I could not wait to see the final results. I have already recommend Sharon to my friends and family!

**★★★★★ — HU-785003984, Jan. 2025**

> Sharon is a super star!  As new homeowners of a flip, we had a clean slate and two bathrooms we could live with, but, we didn't love them. We strived to make them each more functional and suitable for our family. We sought out SMID as we knew her keen eye for detail and aesthetic would meet our need and budget. Sharon not only proved to be meticulous in her design process but also thoughtful in her search to find the right product at the right cost.   So happy we brought her in to assist with our home project. highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Tricia Chow, June 2017**

> I always thought I had a pretty good eye for design after watching so many HGTV shows and searching on Pinterest.  But when I was selling my house in South Pasadena, I wanted to make sure that I got the best price possible.  I decided to hire Sharon Miyano to help stage my house.  Sharon has a great sense of style and has knowledge of all types of design.  She was able to incorporate the design of our historic house with a slightly modern flare to match more of our style.  She was also cognizant of our budget.  She was able to utilize pieces that we had and added additional design elements.  We were able to sell our house quickly for our target price.  I'm sad to say good bye to a beautifully decorated home.  I have been convinced that it's worth hiring a professional.  I will use Sharon to help design and decorate our new home!  I highly recommend her services.

**★★★★★ — mitsuye16, Sept. 2015**

> Sharon was the ultimate professional--she had all the resources I needed and gave me advice and good direction without being overbearing.  She understood my needs and guided me to make outstanding choices.  I love the kitchen she helped me design, remodel and install.  I used many of her recommendations and she encouraged me to explore on my own.    I visited many shops on my own and in her company.  She has wonderful taste due to years of experience and has the unique ability to zero in on my sense of style.  I am ever so pleased with our collaboration!  I would use her  again in a heartbeat--she is ever so kind, knowledgeable, interested and resourceful.

**★★★★★ — durkinhome, Sept. 2015**

> In a virtual world where people can appear to be qualified, yet fail to impress and ultimately deliver, Sharon shatters this image. After 17 years in our house, it was time to remodel the kitchen. We knew this would be no small task as we knew it needed to be "gutted." In our initial meeting with Sharon she provided great insight after listening to our thoughts and ideas for our dream kitchen. In the following week (not weeks) she provided floor plans, elevations and loose 3D images to provide perspective. To say she hit the proverbial nail on the head, is an understatement. Sharon was also able to bring our ideas to a beautiful reality with regards to color and texture. She took our rough ideas and fine tuned them beyond what we thought was possible. When you have tired of the un returned calls and emails, contact Sharon. Quite simply, Sharon is the top 1% in her field and an extremely nice and thoughtful person who you want to have in your home.

**★★★★★ — ckge49, Aug. 2015**

> Sharon Myano has worked with us on remodeling 3 bathrooms and a master bedroom. Her work is very creative and meticulously done. Her attention to detail insures that the job is properly done the first time and we have never had a complaint about any of her work. She makes herself available on short notice which is great when questions come up. Her personality is charming and delightful and I wouldn't think of doing any future remodeling without her expert input. The following review is for all of the projects that we have completed with Sharon. The date is the most recent project. The total time has been 2 years.

Can you recall the dimensions of this bathroom?

A: Hi tenandtwo!  In including tub space, I'd say about 7'x7'.  I hope that helps!
