“I enjoy working with clients to discover what their true needs are and creating a better quality of life for them through beautiful and functional interior design.”

> Sue Sanders possesses an uncanny eye for color and space.  This, along with her philosophy of persistence and patience, resulted in completed projects that far exceeded my expectations.  She did such an outstanding job with my kitchen, powder room, and living area, I knew that I had to bring her back to design my master bath.  All of these areas are now very modern and comfortable.

**★★★★★ — margaretperham, Jan. 2013**

> Sue was very helpful in redecorating the house. She took our ideas and budget and designed the house around them. She was very knowledgeable on where to shop for the best fabrics, materials and fixtures and it was a pleasure working with her.

**Comment from OC Interior Designs:**

> I so enjoyed working with you and your husband!  It was a collaborative effort.  We make a great team!  Thank you for the review!

**★★★★★ — jlnn, Sept. 2011**

> Sue did a great job in helping us remodel our large home after 17 years of raising our family.  After discussing our taste in colors and furniture, Sue helped us select just the right color scheme to paint the entire inside of our home along with the perfect carpet color as well.  We get rave reviews from our family and friends on both!
> Sue also helped us select timeless new furniture for our living room, dining room, and master bedroom.  These new furniture pieces along with our new shutters has truly transformed our home.  We love it thanks to Sue and her and assistance every step along the way.

## Community Q&A

**Q: Fridge** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me the brand of the refrigerator?

A: It is  Kitchen Aid counter depth fridge.  The microwave/oven combo was chosen because it had one control panel which enabled me to have a warming drawer below.  I like that you can convect in the microwave adding additional cooking options.  The hood is Zephyr and I love it!

**Q: Kitchen Tile** *(in Design Dilemma)*

My husband and I are redoing our kitchen floors. We found a tile that we really like, but its 12X12.  It has gray and tanish tones in it so I think it would fit in with the living room and kitchen. I personally think 13X13 tile makes a room look larger and more elegant, but I can’t really find what I am looking for in that size. Am I being crazy? Does anyone have any experience with what tile size looks best? I have attached a picture of the space. We recently got our floors refinished in the living room, up the steps and upstairs which is why we have to get rid of the pergo in the kitchen (because the living room is open to the kitchen). Also, what design do you think would look best? I am not a fan of tiles in a row so I was thinking either the diamond shape or the staggered look. Thoughts?

A: Or consider extending the hardwood into the kitchen.

**Q: Need help with this hanging soffit** *(in Design Dilemma)*

What can I do to hide this soffit that goes nowhere and has no cabinet attached to it.  ugh! I hate it but I do not hate the cabinets.

A: I would cut the soffit off at the end of the cabinets and replace the lights with pendants or recessed LED can lights.

**Q: Need help with what to put above the TV** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Our electronics are all housed in the cabinet above the fireplace.  So the Tv is above the buffet.  The area above the TV is huge and seems to need something, but I have been advised not to hang anything above a TV for safety, but also because it draws the eye up.  Any ideas?

A: I would hang the TV on the wall placing the wires in the wall to hide them.  I agree with Marie that hanging it over the fireplace will cramp your neck  Who started that trend!  I would get rid of the cabinet over the fireplace as well as the round thingy and replace it with a nice piece of art.
