She has taken my style into thoughtful consideration and has come up with excellent , creative concepts. In addition, she is patient and a true professional. She has helped me tremendously in decorating my first home and I highly recommend her! **★★★★★ — gyemfig, July 2015** > Danielle of Gray Livin' is awesome! I could not be happier with the investment I made with retaining her services. She has a keen sense of style and worked tirelessly to ensure my personal style and aesthetic were captured. I absolutely love my condo. Everyone who walks through my doors is always struck by the beauty of the space. I have a very petite condo but the decor makes it feel open and functional. Danielle is responsive, flexible, honest and always helpful. I would/will definitely recommend her services to anyone looking to hire a interior designer. She's well worth it and you will not be disappointed. **★★★★★ — agwilson, Feb. 2013** > I worked with Danielle to develop a space plan for my condo. She listened to what I needed and provided a great plan on time and on budget. It would be fun to work with her again! **★★★★★ — saints1974, Feb. 2013** > We needed a new color to brightened up our family room. The new color would have to complement the fabrics and upholstery in the room as well as the wall color of the adjacent kitchen. We contacted Gray Livin' and consulted with Danielle Gray. Danielle recommended a Behr paint called Sandstone Cliff. The newly painted walls are beautiful and the perfect color. Sandstone Cliff brightend the room and gave it a very modern feel. Thanks to Danielle for suggesting this new color - it's a color we would have never considered on our own. **★★★★ — nboden123, Feb. 2013** > I have worked with Gray Livin' for months now and it has been a joy. My project was a major revamp of my condo. Danielle advised me on hardwood floor samples, countertops, a new glass shower, shower tile and floor tile. Danielle listened to my vision and pulled samples that she thought I would like but also made suggestions of what she thought would work. Danielle came to every meeting prepared and had constant communication with me on updates. I was under a pretty strict budget and she mixed inexpensive pieces with more expensive pieces. Overall I had a positive experience with Gray Livin' and would highly recommend! **★★★★★ — ravel2012, June 2012** > Style, flair, enthusiasm, creativity, and most of all personal attention that’s what you get with Greylivin. I contacted the company late last year because I wanted to personalize my space. I’m a single guy and after living in a new condo in the city for about five years, I had done little; the light switches still lacked covers. I wanted to make it a space that was nice to come home to – especially after travelling – and to entertain friends – the result is so far beyond what I expected that it’s hard to describe – now I’d rather stay in than go out and when on the road, I look forward to getting back. > > Danielle came over and we discussed what I was looking for; she asked probing questions trying to tease out interests, limits, budget and lifestyle. After a two hour conversation she went off and produced a couple of cover boards that translated my vague vision into something concrete; she did a fantastic job. I loved her color scheme and the fact that she produced something that reflected my desire to include a Cuban theme. She also encouraged me to consider options that would never have occurred to me such as a sitting area with two cowhide ottomans – fantastic. > > I also appreciated Danielle’s keeping my shopping trips to a minimum by sending furniture and other options linked to websites by email or buying pictures, candles, potpourri (what the heck is that) and other stuff I would never have thought of directly – although truth be told – the couple of shopping trips we made were not as painful as I had feared. > > One of the things I especially like about the result is how the color scheme and furniture placement accentuates the best features of the condo including a large picture window in the front room and a spacious open kitchen. I could never have achieved this outcome without Danielle’s help. > > I highly recommend her to all especially any single guys who need a nudge and a little help in creating a stylish, inviting, space that reflects your lifestyle and personality. ## Selected projects - [Logan Circle](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/logan-circle-pj-vj~56014) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: Little Havana inspired them for the Cuban bachelor who loves to entertain.

We repurposed several pieces in this space including the accent chairs, foyer table, coffee table and base of her dining table. A bold pop of orange as the accent wall added some vibrancy to the space. See the full reveal and more photos on my blog: http://www.livelaughdecorate.com/2013/03/vintage-glam-part-deux.html A: This looks great! I love the orange and the artwork about the sofa. **Q: Accent wall** *(in Photo Questions)* What color paint was used for this accent wall? Thanks!
