Daphne is amazing. We moved into a new house that we bought directly from a developer so everything was very white box/bland. She helped us add color and life. We had a bunch of constraints: I wanted to buy vintage furniture where possible, I wanted to use natural and sustainable materials, I wanted things to look beautiful but still be kid-proof. She was very patient and flexible, always brought us multiple options to choose from, brought in different specialists to help with custom projects, found great brands and artists who I never would have found on my own. She was also extremely patient when I changed my mind. We love the end result, our house is very comfortable and livable, and also very vibrant and beautiful. Can't recommend enough.

Daphne is a true gem. We recently relocated from London to San Francisco and needed all new furniture. We sought help from Daphne for the design of our living room. We wanted a lot from the space and had no idea where to start. Nor did we have any idea what our style was! Daphne was incredibly flexible with our timeframe, meticulously organized and just a true delight to work with. We couldn't be happier with the way it turned out and she made the process so incredibly fun and easy. Not to mention I've learned so much about design and my personal style from her. We highly recommend Daphne's design services and hope to collaborate again with her.

Daphne provided more than I thought any designer could perform. From painting, to furniture, to electronics - she turned my blank canvas of an apartment into a masterpiece. I give her my higest recommendation.

It was a delight working with Daphne. She is organized and professional and is quick to respond to questions. She is also very flexible -- she was available to meet in the evenings and weekends as needed and could do a lot of work virtually as well. We did not always have a clear vision for what we wanted in our space, but Daphne patiently worked to help us develop an aesthetic that felt like us. She has a good eye for design and can work at many different price points. Thanks, Daphne!

My entire experience working with Daphne was great from start to finish. Daphne opened my eyes to a whole other world of interior design. Her recommendations she found were unbeilable, out of this world amazing. She even found and worked with an independent carpenter to design a custom bar for us! My new space could not look more perfect than it does after working with Daphne! It's draw dropping gorgeous. Truly a dream come true. I can hardly believe my eyes each time I come home! Daphne worked a miracle. She was super easy to work with, had a great personality and gave our project her full attention. She really cared. I've recommended Daphne to about 7 friends and co-workers already. In fact, I just raved about her to my neighbor in my building while heading up in the elevator! She is soooo talented and an incredible designer. Attached are a before and after photos. The after photo was taken about 1 month ago. Today's version is even more amazing now that everything is in. A big thank you to Daphne. Hiring her was the best decision I've ever made for my home!!!

I loved working with Daphne. Her sense of style is amazing. I never would have picked out the things she selected and yet they are absolutely perfect She always brings you things that are a little unexpected but ensures that your taste and style are reflected. She was never forceful with her opinion and was ever- patient when I wanted more and more options. I can't recommend her enough!

Daphne was amazing to work with, helping us to decorate the the living space of our new apartment in Pac Heights, San Francisco. She immediately translated my requests and style into a storyboard of ideas. The use of bright white, color, and little bit of quirky came together in an inspiring way. She even helped to stage the room after the orders arrived. I get compliments on our space from any who visit and all thanks goes to Daphne :) I continually recommend her service to colleagues and friends.

Daphne was a pleasure to work with. We worked on floorplan and decorating for several rooms in my house. Looking back on the project I realize that so much of what I really enjoy about being in my house I owe to the changes Daphne made. She's creative, flexible and a good listener. I highly recommend her.

We are a construction company who began working with Daphne through a client. Working with Daphne is a pleasure. She is organized, conscientious, punctual and has excellent communication skills. She has a relaxed style in her design client relationship and the style she presents. Listening to the client and respecting the direction they want for their home is an important trait of a good designer. We may not always agree with the client, but in respecting them, they will also be responsive to hearing the advice we have to give. Daphne is exceptionally respectful in this regard. She’s also cooperative and considerate to the schedule by promptly repling to questions with answers or immeidate follow up. This is essential for the crew and the client. Thank you.

Daphne was fabulous to work with and helped me make our apartment stylish and comfortable. We moved into a beautiful new space and I was totally overwhelmed with how to set up and decorate our living room and entryway. Daphne to the rescue! She came over to get a feel for the space and listened to my thoughts and ideas. From there, she provided suggestions and furniture options and really helped me create and overall cohesive look and feel for both spaces. In addition, she had some great ideas for additional spaces in the apartment I could easily incorporate on my own. I loved working with Daphne because she really got a sense of what I was looking for and wasn't afraid to provide her honest opinion. Last but not least she was great at putting up with my sense of urgency and excitement in the whole project. I'd definitely work with her again when it's time for a refresh.

Daphne has an incredible design vision, but what impressed me the most was her ability to solve my storage, space, and structural concerns with style, cohesiveness, and finesse. She is prompt, punctual, professional, and very source-savvy. Her efforts resulted in an awesome living room, that is everything I could want, and could not have verbalized, or executed without her help.

I was married to an interior designer so I can be kind of critical when it comes to design. The thought of hiring someone to help me set up my SF apartment was a daunting one. I ended up rejecting a lot of the people I met with. Daphne was different. From the moment we met, I knew we would get along. She really understands space planning which was key because my apartment has a slightly strange layout. Her concepts are also well thought out, there is a story she is telling with her designs and she makes sure that every detail complements it. Maybe the thing I enjoyed the most about working with Daphne is that she is relentless. If I rejected an idea, I knew I would have six more waiting for me in no time. She is a truly talented designer who is incredibly motivated to help you create an awesome space. I also want to mention that Daphne is just a great person, the working relationship was one that never stressed me out probably because she is so organized, creative and inspired. I'm a huge fan and I couldn't recommend her more.
