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.

I highly recommend Designs of the Interior. They just completed the installation of our home and patios in Montecito and like many of her clients, it’s the second home Designs of the Interior has done for us. It is so comfortable and beautiful and our friends rave about it! In addition, I always know where I stand with my budget and delivery time lines.

Had a great experience working with the team (Carla, Marcella and Karen). I loved the designs and suggestions for our entire first floor. They were accommodating when certain items didn't work out and did their best in providing alternatives and rectifying issues that ultimately would come up with a large makeover. Highly recommend!!

We had a wonderful experience with Designs of the Interior! Karen, Carla, and the group were professional, courteous, organized, trustworthy, and extremely committed to determining our needs and our tastes in design. We felt their pricing was fair and their attention to detail superb. We would use them again in a heartbeat!!

I fall in love with my home every time I walk in the door. Karen and Carla took my collection of torn out magazine pages and created a design more beautiful than anything I imagined. We did a three stage redo. It took a little over a year to do the entire house. They are so fun and easy to work with.

Designs of the Interior are an amazing team. I first met them thru my membership with Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts. When it came to updating my kitchen and living room they were the ONLY people I called. Why look around when they are truly the best. Genaro was my personal designer and a dream to work with. We had so much fun and the results were stunning. I have had friends tell me that they think they are in a New York Penthouse in Manhattan when in my home. That was the exact feel I was going for. Genaro and the team are now putting plans together to renovate my master bedroom and bath. Can't wait to get started!!!
