My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Kendall Lighting Center has been working with Jennifer Butler Interior Design for many years. They are always very thorough in their lighting specifications for each and every project and the final outcome is always spectacular! In our opinion, that stands out most of all!

Being the type of person that likes to do things on my own, I was always hesitant to have a designer help me out in furnishing/designing my home. Not that I thought my ideas were the best but I always felt hiring a designer was like a forced friendship. Jennifer not only knew how to spend time observing and offering advice, but has been truly helpful in giving direction. Working with Jennifer 4 years ago and again this year has been very helpful for me. She has helped me design the layout and ordering of custom-made rugs, furniture and recently has helped me with a major exterior renovation for our 5,500 sq ft home that included painting, doors, lighting, soffits and pavers. She can explain very well the ideas that a non-designer couldn't put into words. She's very professional, seeks to understand one's thought process and very organized. Jennifer, thank you again for all your help. You are the best!

I had an excellent experience with Jennifer Butler and her team! They made the daunting task of renovating an entire home seem logical and easy. They were on budget with our project, responded to emails and other communication in a timely manner, and put together a lovely home for me. And they are fun to work with! I am looking forward to working with Jennifer Butler Interior Design again on my next project.

Jennifer has a very clean, sophisticated style and was able to help us save time and zero in on what we wanted for interior design. She planned elements that were unique yet very tailored to the space that we were working with.

I've been lucky enough to have worked with Jennifer on a number of projects. Her attention to detail has made our jobs together run extremely well for both our contractors and her clients. Her CAD drawings are a tile contractors dream, eliminating much of the guess work and making what can be complicated but beautiful designs easy to execute. I've seen her interaction with clients and know that not only do they value her as the extremely talented designer that she is, but also as a friend, as I do. From contemporary to traditional design she can do it all beautifully.

We hired Jennifer Butler Interior Design to design our new kitchen remodel and addition. We couldn't have been happier with the way our extensive project turned out. Our home is a gracious 75+ year old house that had a very small kitchen, breakfast room, powder room, maid's area and attached tiny mud room. Jennifer and her team designed an open kitchen with top quality appliances, efficiently laid out floor plan, and a new attached mud room with a nice sized powder room. She worked effectively with our contractor, assembled drawings that guided the contractor and his team to build a fabulous space with gorgeous lines, surfaces, colors and layout that easily held 45+ women at a holiday party. We went for a Christopher Peacock look and more than achieved the goal. The project took nearly eight months from design start to construction finish but the result was well worth the wait. We are thrilled with our new kitchen. Our extended family and guests just rave!

Jennifer has a great sense of perspective as an interior architect, pulling together and unifying spaces. She's an effective communicator who does not conform to any particular style but is able to pull out the needs and wants of her clients and do what suits and reflects the client best. Her approach is fresh, current and colorful without being trendy. She is personable and it is a pleasure to work with her!

Jennifer has been instrumental in the design of my new home. She keeps an eye on the overall costs while making sure that the building plans conforms to her clients' tastes. She is warm and personable, communicating her ideas in a thoughtful way. She works well as part of a team and represents and advocates for the wishes of her clients. She is careful to hear her clients preferences and is able to design a wide range of styles, from the more contemporary to the early farmhouse style. Jennifer is a great asset to any building project. I have been thrilled to have her as a member of the team that is designing my next home.

The project was a nearly total kitchen re-do that I'd been considering for a couple of years and thanks to Jennifer's creativity, energy and can-do spirit it finally got planned, started and now nearly finished. Being in a position of selling this home within about 4-5 years, the kitchen needed to be something I'd love, but not so individualistic for me that it might interfere with selling later. Right at the start her very practical suggestion was a realtor's assessment to evaluate a price range on the remodel that made sense within the context of the value of the home. I wanted to keep my teak parquet floor ( also kept sink, faucet and the dishwasher) and she worked wonders around that starting point. Having ideas on the sense of how I wanted the kitchen to feel and work, but not really where to start, Jennifer brought her knowledge of the many options available, resources to use, and excellent trades people to bring it all together into an integrated whole that works so well with the rest of my home, too. And there were things I just wouldn't have even thought about (till it was too late!): for instance, right off the bat she said the lighting was inadequate and I realized it had been a problem all along, but yet I wouldn't have thought to change the ceiling cans, which, by the way, was easy and has made a huge difference! My kitchen is contemporary with a nice, light, clean feel to it exactly as I wanted. Her optimism and positive, helpful attitude has been critical when the unavoidable delays and problems have popped up. Finally, Jennifer has been just plain fun to work with and that is no small potatoes when remodeling a kitchen!
