### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Redhill Painting, Feb. 2019**

> We worked with Lisa on a full interior redesign project. She did a wonderful job on coordinating all design and execution aspects of the project. We not only undertook all the painting but we also acted as General Contractors on this project, overseeing floor refinishing, tilers, plumbers, counter top installers etc. Lisa's knowledge, flexibility and upbeat nature made this one of the smoothest projects we've ever worked on and the finished product looks incredible!

**★★★★★ — Andrew Holdsworth, Nov. 2018**

> Lisa helped me re-decorate my entire home.  After considerable consultation and figuring out how much I could get done within my budget the house was transformed with cool colors, rugs and furniture which is the envy of all guests !
>
> Big Thanks

**★★★★★ — Vicky Xiong, Oct. 2018**

> I asked Liza to help me design my kitchen.  This was a difficult problem to solve because my floor plan is irregular and there was a fireplace in the middle of the kitchen.  I didn't have any solid ideas on what I wanted, I only knew it had to be practical and also look good!
>
> Liza was very patient.  She listened first--to all my concerns and my guesses.  She studied the kitchen and asked further questions about how I use my kitchen.  She presented a few ideas that I never thought of, which allowed me to have even more storage space yet maintain an open floor plan look.  We are very happy with Liza's service; she is very organized, has a keen eye for great style, and most importantly she can solve problems.  I highly recommend Liza and her team.

**★★★★★ — Marianne Pallotti, April 2018**

> I hired Liza to help me with phase one of a renovation project before selling my condo and moving to a retirement community. She did a fabulous job--well-organized, listened to my needs and made very helpful suggestions.  Her team was excellent, too.  I hope to ask her to help with the move to the retirement community as well.

**★★★★★ — Kristine Chin, Dec. 2017**

> Love our great room! Liza created a functional, yet sharp, space for my busy family -- the asks included dining, homework, and entertainment areas. She's a good listener, creative, pragmatic and efficient. I receive compliments on the unique (but secretly kidproof!) pieces...the best of all worlds. Highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — Bennett Chung, Dec. 2017**

> Liza and her team worked with me on interior design for my new condo.  I found her to be very thorough and detail oriented.  She is extremely patient and helped me think through various alternatives before making final decisions.  The timetables outlined were accurate. She’s supported by a very good team.  Overall I’ve been very pleased and am happy to recommend her.

**★★★★★ — Sheri Kelly, Dec. 2017**

> Working with Liza is a pleasure.   Most importantly, she listens to her clients to understand their aesthetic and taste.  In my husband’s and my case, she quickly distilled our many ideas for our office, living room, and bedroom into several concrete, workable solutions.  Moreover, she presented several unique design options that we love, and that we would have never thought of by ourselves.  For us, that is the true value of hiring a professional as talented as Liza.  Finally, Liza’s attention to detail is outstanding, she is fun, and she is efficient.  We loved working with her.  We highly recommend Riguerra Design.

**★★★★★ — Frances Tomacruz, Nov. 2017**

> Liza and her associates did an excellent job in getting us organized when we were just starting our project, as we were all over the place with many different ideas but no focus. They helped eliminate ones that weren't practical for our space and ultimately proposed a design that we love. It was a pleasure working with all of them.

**★★★★★ — Sue So, Dec. 2016**

> I found Liza to be talented, organized and fun to work with. She listened to what I wanted, took my lifestyle (busy legal career and beloved dog) into account, and created a design that was low-maintenance and dog-friendly. My home is beautiful and my bedroom feels like a sanctuary. It's fabulous. I highly recommend Riguerra Design.

**★★★★★ — Ravi Rajagopalan, Dec. 2016**

> We wanted to do a complete remodel of the two downstairs bathrooms in our new house.  Liza was our principal designer and the bathrooms are just stunning!  We had a lot of strong opinions (but nebulous requirements) about the way the bathrooms should look and feel.   Liza listened to everything we had to say and was able to present us with different layouts that met our needs.  We ended up picking designs that we would not have considered on our own, but that are perfect for the style of our house.  What's really incredible is the way she explained the process that goes into creating a design.  This is what separates mere mortals from great designers.   Every detail from material to color (even grout color!) was selected very deliberately to work together.  The end result was just fantastic.
>
> We also really appreciated the way the team ran the project.  This is something that I find lacking in almost every craftsman/designer/artist that I have ever worked with.  They might be great with their craft, but they are really lousy with managing a process and any kind of business detail.  We had no such problems with Liza and her team.  All of their communications were timely and accurate, and they took care of everything to make sure that the bathrooms came out great.  We can't wait to hire Riguerra Design for our next project!

**★★★★★ — Amy Kelman, Dec. 2016**

> Liza was able to translate my design aesthetic from vague concept to reality.  I have always loved interiors and interior design.  But on my own, I really struggled to create the sophisticated home environment I wanted (despite spending time and money).
>
> So I selected Liza to do a comprehensive interior design/remodel of my home.  Liza has refined skills and a design process that enables her to ascertain the most subtle of characteristics that will define your space.
>
> Working with Liza is fun and productive,  My schedule is busy and Liza has always made the most of our meeting times and does so much behind the scenes to make that possible.  Liza's targeted visits to the design center and galleries were so uplifting to me.  She knows how to navigate her clients through the overwhelming maze of selections to a very thoughtfully selected set of possibilities.
>
> Liza created a home I love to live in and entertain in.  I cannot recommend her enough.

**★★★★★ — Mary JS, Dec. 2016**

> I hired Riguerra Design to furnish our living room, family room, and dining room. I’ve never worked with an interior designer before and there were so many decisions to be made. But Liza has been so helpful to have “my” colors, fabrics, finishes and everything I need right at my fingertips when we meet. Liza and her team are a joy to work with. They listened to my ideas and delivered a superb design. I absolutely LOVE my home. I highly recommend Riguerra Design.
