Her redesign of my apartment fit my style, my needs, and my budget. She made me love my apartment again by turning it into a little oasis in the city. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you, Ellen. **Comment from Apartment Rehab NYC:** > Thank you, Meghan! I'm so happy you love your new city oasis! :) **★★★★★ — James Nanqiao Xu, Oct. 2025** > Ellen helped with our kitchen reno design, and we are so happy with the results. She is very creative, full of great ideas (from bigger picture to handling quirky spots given our pre-war home), and very responsive and patient with all the back and forth and changes. It used to be a dark alley kitchen, and now our open kitchen really brought all the energy flow of the entire living space together. **Comment from Apartment Rehab NYC:** > Thank you so much, James! It was really fun working with you and I am so happy you love how it turned out! :) -Ellen **★★★★★ — Lyn San Pedro, July 2025** > I hired Ellen to design my apartment last fall, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Her online portal made everything organized and easy to follow, which took a lot of the stress out of the process. > > Ellen is not only highly professional—she’s a genuinely kind person and a great listener. She never judged my ideas, or my budget, and she worked closely with me to bring my vision to life. She was always on time for Zoom meetings and site visits, and if any problems came up during construction, she solved them quickly and calmly. > > Now, I absolutely love my living space. I finally feel excited to host friends and family—just so I can show off how beautiful my home looks! Working with Ellen was truly a positive and worthwhile experience. She’s creative, dependable, and has amazing taste. > > If you’re thinking about upgrading your space, I highly recommend Ellen.

I'm so happy you love the space, and working with you was a joy! :) **★★★★★ — drjimkochalka, June 2025** > Ellen is not only fun to work with, she is very talented. From the initial meeting she was friendly, professional, and genuinely interested in understanding the modest changes I wanted for my 2 bedroom Manhattan apartment. > > You know how in life there are people who just "get it?" Ellen is one of those rare individuals! She listened very carefully and brought my thoughts to life with paint, lighting, and furniture. > > Ellen brought a very creative approach to both improve the look and functionality of each room, all while staying in budget. > > In a world where poor communication and lack of followthrough are common, Ellen stands above. I would text her an idea. She would respond in a few minutes with an "On it" response and soon after provide possible solutions to review. > > When a few items faced unexpected delays, Ellen kept me informed every step of the way, ensuring there were no surprises. Her ability to think on her feet and improvise with alternate products was impressive and made the experience seamless. > > As a bonus, Ellen has a network of trusted colleagues - from painters and lighting installers to furniture storage and delivery who were all top notch. Everything was handled with care and expertise. > > A real privilege to work with Ellen. I recommend her wholeheartedly for fantastic work at a very fair price. **Comment from Apartment Rehab NYC:** > Thank you so much, J! You are very kind and a joy to work with! I look forward to helping you with more projects down the road ;) -Ellen **★★★★★ — Bennett Lau, June 2025** > I had the pleasure of working with Ellen on a recent project in Queens, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience and her knowledge.

I look forward to our next kitchen project together! :) **★★★★★ — Irene Koutsidis, May 2025** > Ellen made the whole process feel effortless. I sent her a bunch of quick photos from my phone to get started, and she came back with spot-on ideas that totally matched my vision. I needed a space that could double as a calm therapy office and a baby-friendly living area—no easy task in a NYC apartment—but she understood exactly what I needed. She was super communicative, had a fast turnaround, and made the most of every inch. Highly recommend if you want someone who gets it and makes it happen. **Comment from Apartment Rehab NYC:** > Thank you for the kind words, Irene! It was such a fun project! :) **★★★★★ — Jason W, Feb. 2025** > Working with Ellen from Apartment Rehab NYC is fantastic.

She’s highly skilled at paying attention to the little details that make a huge difference. She has the vision, expertise, and skills to design any space and manage the entire project from start to finish. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! **★★★★★ — Connie Pastorius, April 2023** > I contacted Ellen to help redesign the basement at my lake house to become an office and full functioning personal training gym where I can record videos. > > Ellen listened to my half-baked crazy ideas with curiosity and excitement, and made the entire process extremely easy for me. > > What I ended up with was a beautiful functional space that was more awesome than I could have imagined on my own. **Comment from Apartment Rehab NYC:** > Thank you so much Connie, and I can't wait to see your next video! **★★★★★ — HU-232628015, Dec. 2022** > We needed to renovate our co-op apartment kitchen; Ellen worked with us on design :) very pleased with designs! Ellen listened to what out our needs were and helped optimize space (u-shape wrap counter in galley kitchen). We really love the cabinet fixtures, and stone (floor tiles, wall tiles) Ellen picked - vibed with us. Ellen was great throughout the project, would recommend for design projects! ## Selected projects - [Columbus Circle Manhattan Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/columbus-circle-manhattan-kitchen-pj-vj~7876644) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [Columbus Circle Manhattan Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/columbus-circle-manhattan-bathroom-pj-vj~7876600) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 19 - [Park Slope Kitchen Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/park-slope-kitchen-renovation-pj-vj~7745861) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Queens Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/queens-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~7710806) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 32 - Description: Residential Queens New York kitchen design by Ellen Z.
