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.

Leonard is very personable, creative and a visionary in his field. He makes himself available and communicates well. I would highly recommend Leonard and feel his work is a work of art in itself.

I've used Leonard on two homes thus far. I have found him to be very creative and he has excellent taste. He also has a network of very good craftsmen and other sources for furniture and finishes. He manages the process well and stands by his commitments. Overall, I recommend him highly.

Leonard Temes Design was engaged to upgrade a condominium I purchased. This included upgrading bathroom flooring, home lighting, resurfacing wood flooring, patchwork and painting, installation of central air conditioning and heating. Temes Design provided material boards for color selection as well. They were responsive, very creative, and provided very high quality of services.

Leonard Temes has the Midas Touch and excellent training in architecture, interior design and furniture design. I have known him for 15+ years and had the pleasure of following a few of his various transformations and furniture designs when I lived in Los Angeles. Leonard has been a perfect fit in designing a truly unique rustic barn style timber frame home in Woodstock, NY. Many of the craftsmen who helped build it have said they have never seen such fine detail. Stunning work and great collaborator for 3 years. Photos of his work have been posted at barnonthepond.com/info and flickr.com/upstatebeauty. Thank you Leonard and team for a job very well done.

Leonard's work is just great. His work on my Santa Monica condo resulted in substantial capital appreciation and a sale on the day the unit went on the market.

Leonard is a very gifted designer. He has done numerous projects for me over the years, large and small. One condo he did for me was published in Elle Decor. He also is great at custom furniture. I have seen the work he has done for others. He has the ability to work with different styles. I will continue to engage him and recommend him without reservation.
