“I knew I wanted my home to finally look good after such a long time sitting with bare walls and furniture that wasn’t “me.” I found Michelle and although I never saw myself as someone who could afford a designer, I instantly felt at ease with her and knew that I made a decision I only wish I had made long ago!! Michelle is super professional and uber talented. Within a few short meetings and quick screen shares, she blew me away with how much she KNEW my styles and preferences. I was able to then sit back and watch my space transform into a dream house. I am so excited to have people over now, whereas before I’d feel self conscious. My house is now an extension of me and my style. She took pieces I already had and loved in my home and elevated them to a new level, while bringing in a mix of new and old that gave me one of those “Pinterest worthy” homes. Highly highly recommended. Can’t wait for my best project with her!!”

“Katy has quite simply changed my life for the better. I was amazed at how quickly she was able to come in and assess exactly what was need to turn my home into a comfortable, useable and stored space that I love coming home to. Before she even left I implemented some of her suggestions and found that everyday tasks like doing the laundry were so much easier. She really listened to what I was looking for and in a short amount of time created a custom design that we fell in love with. She provided us instant accessibility to colors and furnishing that fit our budget and style. My only regret is that I didn't hire her years ago. I could have spent all those years loving my space.”

“We asked for a few design suggestions for our dining room: We were contacted by a courteous & pleasant woman who gave us the following ideas. 1. Create a warmer atmosphere 2. Soften the echo 3. Overall finish of the diningroom The suggestions were all considered as they were out of the box ideas, reasonably priced changes & easy to complete. We would definitely use this company again.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 15, 2022
“We have worked with Vanessa for several years, room by room (living room, family room, kitchen nook, guest room and master bedroom) redesigning and upgrading our home. Vanessa is a wonderful designer - she was able to get a bead very quickly on what I wanted, our style and the need to accommodate a rough and tumble household full of boys. She brought fresh ideas, translated our ideas and coalesced everything into coordinated design choices . . . but not too many which can be overwhelming. Vanessa is also an excellent communicator, kept us apprised of status, followed up when she needed information, always with a smile on her face. We couldn't be more pleased with Vanessa's partnership and we would definitely work with her again and again.”

She also knows what life is really like with kids and makes a home livable AND stunning. That mix is very hard to find. Can't recommend her enough!”

What does an interior designer do?


A good home design professional will hone your style down to its very essence and be able to choose a functional layout that feels natural to you. Interior design companies can be involved as much or as little as the client desires. Many clients who hire a house interior decorator in Carlsbad, CA — particularly those who are remodeling — have a good sense of how the room should look and what products they should use. Often clients will insist that interior design contractors use the products already present in the house. Other times a designer will need to start from scratch — especially if this is a newly purchased or just-built home. An interior design firm will need to figure out exactly what the client needs, which includes organizing rooms, picking flooring and wall colors, and finding furniture to complement it all. Sometimes that means he or she will have to recruit help from other Carlsbad, CA home professionals to help create the perfect look for your renovation.

Do your research before meeting with an interior design contractor or home decorator in Carlsbad, CA. Ask yourself what you want your space to become and what it will be used for. Figure out the extent of what you need help with, what your must-haves are and what your budget is. Interior design services can add up fast, so be up front with a potential design firm or individual from the beginning. Also, pick an interior decorator that fits your style. Browse through the portfolios of different Carlsbad interior design firms and decide if you would live in those houses. Just because you like something doesn’t mean you could live in it. There's a big difference!

Questions to ask when you meet with local Carlsbad interior designers:


  • Can you give me a referral? (It makes a big difference to talk with a client who's worked with the designer before.)
  • Can I see your design portfolio?
  • When will the home renovation be done?
  • Do you charge an hourly rate or a flat rate, or use the cost-plus method or a mixed method?
