**★★★★★ — Iza Rutkowska, May 2016**

> Iza helped us to repaint our house and replace some furniture to make the interior more interesting and stylish. Following her advice we also rearranged some of our paintings, rugs, etc. The costs of the project were very moderate while results fantastic, we have now a whole new home and we like it. What distinguishes Iza from other interior designers I interacted with is that she understands her clients’ needs and rather upgrades their taste/style than try to force hers on them. Exceptional tact and talent. Thank you Iza!

**★★★★★ — pzuk, March 2013**

> Iza helped me with office design at my law firm, and a bathroom renovation at home.  She is extremely professional.  I liked the way she was able to integrate some of the things I already had at the office into the final design.  But I also appreciated her firmness when "that thing has to go."  I would recommend her without reservation.

> The bathroom design went great too.  She found really nice ceramic tiles and added a switch to heat the floor. The bathroom is small, so she recommended a sliding glass door for the shower, which looks nice and saved a lot of space.

**★★★★ — zoeriley, March 2013**

> Iza really helped pull together my house in a very creative and reasonable process.  I really enjoyed working with her, she is very collaborative and intuitive which really made the process fun and satisfying.  And I receive many compliments on her work.

> Ms. Eisemann is very reliable, knowledgeable/creative, and reasonably priced. It has been so much fun transforming my living/dining room with her input and guidance! I would highly recommend her to others. -P. Hoffmann

## Community Q&A

**Q: Need help with bedroom furniture arrangement** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Attached is the diagram of my secondary bedroom. I would like to know in general where would you put the bed? When we build this house, the floor plan called for the closet where the nook is, I requested to remove the closet, enlarge the window for the little view. I plan to build a wardrobe in the left corner . The first picture is the entrance door, to the left is a small closet, then door to the bathroom 
Measurement of the room from A-B =13.4 feet, BC = 11.4, CD=3.8, DE=6.4.
Thank in advance
Susan

A: I think you made a great decision opting for a large window instead if a closet. The room needed more light. As this is a secondary bedroom (guest bedroom?) you may want to put a nice large desk in the nook. I would put the bed on the wall in the second photo and maybe a hutch in between the small windows. The arc over the nook makes me think of dark brown Spanish style furniture. Great space with a lot of potential!

**Q: Need window dressing suggestions...help!** *(in Design Dilemma)*

We need something for privacy and to diffuse the summer afternoon sun...blinds, shutters or sheers? And then also some kind of fabric, valance, drape?  It is such an awkward window to dress.  Any suggestions much appreciated.

A: I would replace your current window treatment with a nice thin metal rod extended beyond the width of the window so that the curtain panels stay on the wall (take down the existing scones/metal ornaments). I would choose a large floral pattern perhaps corresponding to the color of your leather chair (dark red/wine) for the curtains. Some color and bold pattern will add a character to the room.

**Q: Light grey fabric + brown leather sofa** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Hello everyone,

I am trying to complement my light grey fabric sofa with another mid-to-dark brown leather one. Do you think it will look to good to match fabric and leather? What about the colours?

I have attached a picture of my light grey fabric couch + a picture of the leather couch that I want to add + a picture of the fabric compared to the light brown leather + a picture of the fabric compared to the dark brown leather.

I am completely lost, what do you guys think? Any opinion would be helpful!

Thanks

A: A darker brown leather fabric will create too much of a contrast. I think your gray fabric and the lighter brown leather will work great. Go with your gut feeling.

**Q: Accent wall - half bath** *(in Design Dilemma)*

I'm remodeling my half bath, navy walls tile floor. I decided to hand paint a gold accent wall. Should I do the adjacent wall or would that be to much?

A: Love the accent wall!

**Q: Need help on rug size** *(in Design Dilemma)*

I have a 6' round table and 6 chairs in my dining area. I want to use a round rug underneath because I am scratching my wood floor. What is the general rule on size rug for this size table. I see some 7'9" and others 9' or so. Thank you in advance!

A: You can consider using carpet tiles from Flor.com to create a custom size area rug that fits your room.

**Q: High ceiling - too big room** *(in Design Dilemma)*

We bought the house because we loved the high ceilings...and open floor plan but (as you can see!) I've never been able to figure out how to make the space work.  There is an open loft looking down on the mess.  Any and all suggestions welcomed!

A: Painting the walls in darker color would make a big difference right away. There is not enough contrast between the walls and the ceiling now which makes the room appear very high. You need to develop a color scheme for the room first. You can pick a warm neutral gray to create a nice background for other color accents. Looks like gray would work with your current area rug (lime green?) There are many other colors options as well. Can you post more photos that could inspire a new color scheme? How does the fourth wall look like?
