It just looks fabulous and the attention to detail and level of communication is much appreciated. **★★★★★ — Tamara Sorell, Aug. 2020** > Driftwood completed a major renovation and custom construction. The quality and attention to detail is unparalleled! I also appreciate the responsiveness and communication. A pleasure to work with! **Comment from Driftwood Design & Woodworking:** > It was a pleasure working with you! So glad you love your space. **★★★★★ — Lauren Lopez, March 2020** > I hired Driftwood Design to help me with my dining room chairs. I wanted to change the look of my dining room and the chairs needed to be redone as they were very uncomfortable. Not only were the design recommendations exactly what I envisioned, the craftsmanship was top notch. I look forward to working with them on my next project. **★★★★★ — HU-617320779, March 2020** > I wanted to redesign two girls bedrooms after they “ flew the nest “. Driftwood Design drew up original layouts. I stayed within my budget by Raquel helping me repurpose some items I already owned. Color choices are beautiful! I feel like I’m in a new house with lots of useful rooms. You will love whatever Driftwood does for you. **Comment from Driftwood Design & Woodworking:** > Thank you, Debbie! It was such a treat to work with you on these projects. **★★★★★ — Steph Sheline, Oct. 2019** > We hired Raquel to assist with a kitchen and bathroom design for our 1935 home. We had taken down a wall and were looking to flip flop the kitchen and dining room, as well as add a full bath to the first floor where there was none (no small feat in a 1600 square foot home)! Raquel met with us to learn about what we were hoping to achieve, and worked with us to maximize the use of limited space. She was even able to squeeze in the full bath like we had hoped! > > We felt like she truly understood what we were looking to get out of the project, and she was a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend her services, and have even recommended her via word of mouth to some friends looking to pursue similar types of projects. **Comment from Driftwood Design & Woodworking:** > It was truly a pleasure working with you both! It has been amazing watching your space transform. ## Selected projects - [Allens Trail House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/allens-trail-house-pj-vj~7536357) - Location: Groton, MA - Photos: 12 - [Timber Frame Exterior](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/timber-frame-exterior-pj-vj~6386306) - Location: Brookline, NH - Photos: 3 - [Kings Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kings-bedroom-pj-vj~6224988) - Location: Waltham, MA - Photos: 6 - Description: We designed and built this custom bed that features white oak and clean lines.
