This talented team listened carefully, designed thoughtfully, secured experts in each trade, managed the entire project, and did it all within budget! I suspect our incredible outcome is also grounded in the honesty, attentiveness, and excellence each member of Victoria’s team displayed each step of the way. **★★★★★ — Kim Senn, June 2020** > If you are looking for a designer with versatility, creativity, attention to detail, and all-around great taste, PRS is exactly who you should hire. Victoria and her team designed a dreamy master suite for our home and we love retreating to it at the end of every day. We also appreciate the contractor recommendations and involvement through the entire remodeling process. It's such a treat to have this space in our home! **★★★★★ — Paul Farris, June 2020** > Prospect Refuge Studio did a fantastic job on our home interior update!. Truly professional and great communication throughout the design and install process. I could not recommend more highly! **★★★★★ — Susan Lieberman, Jan. 2020** > Working with Victoria and her team was amazing. > They bring incredible knowledge, expertise and creativity to the design process while making it fun! > They are also excellent project managers. > I am very pleased the results and recommend working with Prospect Refuge Studio. **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Thank you so much Susan! It was such a treat to get to know you and your home so well and help you tackle your to-do list. The highlight was helping you to commission artwork thorugh one of our faborite local artistls. Looking forward to working with you again! **★★★★★ — Arielle McH, Dec. 2019** > What a dream to work with Victoria and her team! Among the many wonderful things about working with PRS + Victoria: her eye for detail. Her inclination to push you - in a good way! Her support for local makers. Her follow-up. How to mesh new spaces with the rest of your home. > > Victoria did a beautiful overhaul of our three-season porch, making it a usable, versatile space - while keeping two large heirloom wicker chairs. It's a warm, inviting cocoon that I want to be in always. She also helped us choose updated lighting and fixtures in the dining room and kitchen then make them feel like ours - and like brand new spaces. > > I so appreciate that she was willing to work on the budget to make it workable for us. You feel entirely looked after, and I know you'll be pleased with her work. **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Arielle, thank you for the kind words. We had so much fun dreaming up your unique porch space, as well as refreshing your kitchen. Working with homeowners like you makes our job feel so rewarding. Thanks again! **★★★★★ — Angela Spiteri, Aug. 2019** > The team at Prospect Refuge Studio helped make our office dream a reality! After moving into a new space, they helped us take a blank canvas and turn it into something we're proud to work from and host clients in every day. They took time to listen to what we wanted and made it work within the budget parameters we set. And not just that, they delivered an end result that is full of personality. From start to finish they were top professionals, keeping the lines of communication open and working with us as the needs of the project changed along the way. I couldn't be a bigger champion for what this team can do and would highly recommend them to anyone out there, whether it's a home or office project, big or small. We couldn't be happier with the results they provided! **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Angela, > > We are so happy that you enjoy your space. It was such a treat to spend time getting to know you and your family businesses needs. We hope it expands and grows with you throughout the years ahead. > > Cheers, > Victoria **★★★★ — timnierengarten, May 2019** > PRS was great to work with from project ideation to completion. The team helped take our project theme "both mid-century modern and bohemian" and presented options that aligned with our comfort but also expanded our mental bandwidth. The process was multi-step and evolved into a better than expected finished product. The fluidity of the budget was consistently updated to our approval and managed appropriately. In addition, they have partnered with exceptional contractors and designers that brought all the concepts to reality. **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Tim, > > The feeling is mutual— It was a great project to work on. We really enjoyed how the space came alive and can't wait to hear how cozy your new fireplace feels this winter when you are spending time with your family. > > Cheers, > Victoria **★★★★★ — June Cheng, April 2019** > Victoria and her team completely transformed our 100+ year-old craftsman home. We had a vague idea of what we wanted but did not know how to make it happen. Victoria took our idea and made it so much better. Her design brought life and some fun into our house while respecting its original characters. It is beautiful, but also practical. She pushed the boundaries, but also respected our preferences. It was a great experience working with her and her team, and we love how the house turned out. **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Hi June, > > Thank you so much for taking time to share your story and your experience with PRS. I loved working with your family and your home. Watching your older home fill with life and feature your stories was truly satisfying. Stay in touch! > > Victoria **★★★★★ — HU-678254269, Jan. 2019** > Victoria and Carrie were really lovely to work with and I couldn't recommend them enough. I didn't have a strong idea of what I wanted, so they really helped to shape the apartment, with my input. I was very happy with the pieces we chose - I felt like they were unique and high quality without being pretentious. Victoria and Carrie were also extremely responsive, worked to make sure everything was right and in the end, felt like home. **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Thanks so much for the compliment. We love to hear that you feel like you are 'at home' in your space. We really think the tonal textures you choose made your space feel special to you and look forward to hearing how you settle in over the years. > > Cheers, > Victoria **★★★★★ — Kate Panke, Dec. 2018** > I am SO happy we chose to use Prospect Refuge Studio for our full kitchen remodel! I had a specific vision in my mind of what I wanted, but wasn't sure how to pull it together. They made my vision come to life- I am still in LOVE with walking into my kitchen everyday. We changed our minds more than once on what we wanted to get it perfect, and PRS was totally fine with it and rolled with the punches. We were so happy with the kitchen, we decided to get some design work for our living room as well--I wanted a cohesive look throughout the main living area. Both Victoria and Carrie were a joy to work with, I would HIGHLY recommend them! **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Kate, > > We are SO happy you choose us for your kitchen remodel too. We think the space turned out great and really reflects you and your family's lifestyle. We wish you many years of great meals and time in the kitchen together. > > Cheers, > Victoria **★★★★★ — HU-362098159, Dec. 2018** > We recently purchased a house that needed a complete cosmetic re-do, and a totally gutted kitchen. In addition to the kitchen, project included 3 new exterior doors, repainting every inch of the house, refinishing all the floors, and all new light fixtures and hardware. While we had a very general idea of where we wanted to go, Victoria was an immense help in making all the decisions that needed to happen. She found light fixtures we absolutely love that I know we would have never found on our own, and she was able to stay within our budget. She had excellent and well priced options for contractors and saved us a lot of time with her knowledge. Totally worth it and would absolutely recommend. **★★★★★ — Jerry McMahan, Dec. 2018** > We used Victoria and Carrie to update our formerly very formal Music Room--think big ebony Grand Piano with beautiful but uncomfortable seating. The end result is still a formal room but it is so comfortable and cozy now, thanks in a large part to the fabrics they chose which are just the right mix between formal and casual and yet they are luxurious to the touch. They also picked out new lamps and wall sconces and a few accent tables but worked with our existing Persian rugs and treasured family heirlooms. We are so pleased with the final product and now find ourselves spending more and more time in this beautiful space relaxing by the fire. Thanks Victoria and Carrie **Comment from Prospect Refuge Studio:** > Jerry, > > It was such a pleasure to work with you and your home. Those tiger chairs that you let us push the envelope with really support the show to your gorgeous formal 'informal' Music Room. Hope you are having a great summer. > > Best, > Victoria --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-03.*
