Creative Group Interiors

Maureen is a very talented interior designer. I had the opportunity to collaborate with her on a full residential remodel last year. Her ideas are fresh and imaginative. She is very professional and easy to work with.

Our firm is a residential builder and developer of single family and multifamily new homes. We have used Creative Group Interiors as our exclusive interior design firm for over 15 years. They have decorated and merchandised all of our model homes and also assisted us with the selection of interior and exterior materials, colors, and design for many of our projects and homes. I would recomend this firm to anyone looking for an interior decorating or design consultant.

Maureen is amazing. We have worked with her to update and transform our home furnishings, lighting fixtures, soft goods, paint/color schemes, and wall coverings (grass cloth, wallpaper, etc.). We had worked with several other designers before, but none of them had the vision and skills to tie the whole house together. We wanted lots of traditional colors on the walls in the various rooms (barn red, robin's egg blue, sage green, etc.) and Maureen suggested we tie it all together using a dark chocolate brown theme in soft goods, dark wood antiques, and a foyer anchored in a dark brown wall tone set off against heavy white moldings. To keep costs down, Maureen was able to successfully integrate in much of our existing furniture and focused on re-upholstering fabrics and restoring wood finishes where necessary to create the look. She also re-framed most of our artwork and helped on selecting a few additional original artwork pieces to round out the house. We've been working continuously with Maureen for the last 2 years and look forward to continuing to leverage her keen design eye for new projects.

With a clean slate of a new four story unit in the heart of downtown Chicago, Maureen has weaved her magic to create a beautiful home with charm, beauty and class. We are proud to show others her work and receive many compliments. What makes her special is her ability to take an engagement in a new city, get to know the inner workings of design there, and use and develop these contacts all to the benefit of those she is working with. Her style plays off of the wants and needs of the client, and I can tell you first hand that if a client sees a different approach to any part of the project, she accomodates and makes it all come together. Last, she never loses sight of the end goal and drives the project home down to the last detail.
