Lighting Designers in Aston

“Gretchen is wonderful. I had been wanting to re-do my living area but was afraid to hire someone and afraid to do it myself. By extreme fortune, I found Gretchen. She tapped into my inarticulate needs brilliantly and came up with a truly lovely design that made all my previous fears disintegrate. She also made the process of implementing the design pretty painless. She is a gifted artist and real professional - and yet, worked smoothly with a rank amateur. I LOVE everything about my new living room and dining room. Thank you, Gretchen!”

“Courtney and I have worked together on several projects. During our time collaborating, it is clear Courtney has the unique ability to turn concept into reality! Courtney always has her eyes on the client's she works with, I would highly recommend partnering with Courtney on your next project, she is a ROCKSTAR!”

“Working with Stephanie was an outstanding experience. She incorporated our tastes into a coordinated design that was elegant and tasteful. She has knowledge of colors and patterns as well as products so we were able to make decisions quickly and without second guessing. Our new powder room is wonderful - providing both functionality and beauty in a modern way. We are looking forward to working with Collaborative Interiors on more home improvements.”

“I had recently swapped my dining and living room furniture as we never used the living room, and only used the dining room for larger groups and needed lots of space a couple of times a year. Sarah Herman's came recommended to help me with curtains, carpets, light fixtures and artwork, transforming my furnishings into masterpieces. She was exceptional at tuning into what my preferences were and came up with beautiful options in my budget. I could not be happier with the end result. Every single person who comes to my home compliments the decor of these rooms. I love sitting in my sitting room (previously the dining room) as it is warm and inviting. The new dining room is spectacularly outfitted with a classic Tuscan feel that adds a lot to our culinary experiences in that room.”

“She is a pleasure to work with and I loved her suggestions and recommendations. She was able to work with me according to my budget to help redo my formal dining room.”

“This husband and wife team are amazing! They have unbelievable talent and are so personable. Benavides Design House turned our unfinished basement into a beautiful space complete with an art room for the kids, spare bedroom, entertainment room, pool table/game room and a wine cellar wall. They did renderings for us ahead of time so that we could really see what our space would look like. They sat down with us and made sure we were comfortable and got to know our style before they made recommendations. They were flexible enough to put up with our last minute change of heart on a few decisions. They were also very responsive to our calls and emails throughout the process. Plus when we first moved to the South Jersey area, we paid almost double the hourly fee for a designer so we consider BDH to be very competitively priced. You can not go wrong with this talented pair!!”

“Adair staged my living room, all in a matter of 2 hours by simply changing furniture placement and angling each piece of furniture in a way that is so inviting and comfortable. She has a talent to use accessories in a way that is useful, not just decorative. I am so very pleased with the results. I didn't know how to move forward after painting my living room and how to incorporate color and texture. Adair did that. She is knowledgeable, attuned to your needs and loves what she does. She also took me on a shopping spree at Home Goods just to be more confident with how to complete a room. So, the learning went beyond my home. I am so grateful for her help! I know she will be there for my next challenge, as I would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

“Kim is wonderful to work with--very down-to-earth and approachable. She helped me with several rooms in my house, and I'm thrilled with the results. I wanted furniture and decor that wasn't overly fussy but still looked polished, and would work with my three small children. Kim's suggestions were spot-on.”

“I have retained Karen Cronin on three significant projects. The most recent project was the move from my primary residence(4000 ft.² plus home) in South Jersey into my current residence (large two bedroom apartment at the Ritz residences in Philadelphia Pennsylvania). I am a divorced father of two. I own and run my own business. I work long hours and travel extensively. Bottom line-in a move like this I needed a tremendous amount of help, and based on my previous experience with Karen I had every confidence in her abilities. She exceeded my expectations. On the front end of the move Karen took responsibility to vet and retain movers. She supervised and coordinated the packing of my home, and the move. A stone the size of the home and the amount of furnishings very little was used in my new residence, which required that belongings and furnishings be donated or stored. Karen handled all of this. She was on site for the move out of my South Jersey residence, and coordinated with the building Philadelphia to handle the move-in. She had everything planned well in advance and it ran like clockwork. Because I was moving into a totally different style and size residence, Karen needed to completely design, furnish and accessorize my new residence. This required her to spend considerable time in advance designing, measuring and providing the options based upon my taste and pricing parameters. This move encompassed everything from furniture, to art, lighting, kitchen appliances, etc. Karen furnished and designed for the foyer, living room, dining room, family room and bedrooms. Karen coordinated with the vendors and my building to make arrangements for all deliveries and installation. She handled placement and timing of art. She worked with selected and vetted multiple vendors, including the movers, electricians, plumbers and carpenters. She has exemplary communication skills. We communicated multiple times daily. Based on our extensive experience together my trust in her judgment is absolute-yet, she took no steps without authority. I have absolutely no reservations about giving Karen complete access. She is completely trustworthy I have no reservations about recommending Karen Cronin. I can assure you I will be hiring her again. Completely dependable, the ultimate professional. Punctual. And, she has great taste. My place looks awesome. Constantly receive compliments. Can't go wrong with Karen Cronin!!! I would have no problem speaking with anyone considering Karen.”

“Working with Ximena was a pleasure. She is very talented, professional, organized. She is passionate about design and listens well to requests and concerns. We were very pleased with the results of her work and would highly recommend her to others.”
