“Upon purchasing a home built in the era of the 1960’s, we consulted with and hired Laura Intscher from Secret Based Design to reconfigure the space of the home which was very dated & closed off with all of the rooms separated by walls. The space needed special attention in light of the prior construction with load bearing walls which needed to be opened up for our floor plan desires. Laura was able to understand our desires and offer us a design that allowed for the rooms to be opened up, giving us a room to room flow with a more spacious desired floor plan which is exactly what we were looking for. With Laura, it was easy to communicate our wishes. Her knowledge and understanding of modern design layout and the challenges we were facing with building construction in general, allowed her to design and offer a concept that perfectly fit our wants and needs. In addition, Laura’s past experience and professional relationship with the surrounding Township’s building code department’s requirements, notwithstanding Laura’s knowledge of the processes involved was extremely helpful in obtaining permits and occupancy certificates. We consulted with Laura from start to finish on our project, including colors, furniture placement and fixtures. We would hire Laura again and have highly recommend her to our friends and family.”

“Johnny has a unique eye for designing dream homes that not only meet your expectations but also allows the building to settle into the landscape like it belongs there. He is knowledgeable and professional, and he can even help one begin the build process locally in the Ithaca area. I recommend setting up a consultation with him if you have land and a dream.”
