    Lily Z Designs
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in Bethesda
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 8, 2021
    “We have worked with Lily and her team for two homes and are so thankful for her work. Lily is excellent at communicating the process and timelines. She works collaboratively, is responsive and listens to all of my ideas, helping me weed out the not so great ideas. The end product and look of a space is always beautiful, practical and perfectly executed. She’s great at finding ways to utilize space efficiently and selecting beautiful fabrics and lighting. I highly recommend.”

    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 24, 2016
    “I am so thrilled that I had the opportunity to work with Erica! Erica is a consummate professional who guided me through the renovation and redecoration of the main floor of my home. My trust in her is what kept me sane! She has impeccable taste and always managed to find options that fit my budget. My husband and I could not be happier with the result! I would highly recommend Erica for any interior design project. She is a pleasure to work with and is very talented.”
    Haus Interior Design
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in Bethesda
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 22, 2015
    “Haus Interior Design is amazing! Remodeling is a stressful process but Kirsten Kaplan kept us sane! Not only does she have an amazing eye for design detail, but she worked extremely well with our subcontractors making sure our remodel timeline and expectations were met. We did a full kitchen renovation and Kirsten was instrumental in helping us choose everything from the hardwood floors to the cabinet hardware. Not only was she able to find us some amazing grasscloth for a fabulous focal wall, she knew the right people to call for a flawless install. The result is one amazing kitchen!”

    “They did the crown moulding for us. They provided excellent customer services and craftsmanship.. We can't ask for better result than this!!”
    Kim Johnson Designs, LLC
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in Bethesda
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 17, 2014
    “I have worked with Kim on two renovations; a kitchen and a hall bath. In both cases, Kim has been an enormous help. She knows the right people for the job, has great ideas and great imagination, and has the wisdom and tact to gently nudge me into another direction when I come up with some bone-headed idea that cannot possibly work. She's a joy to work with, and I'll probably be calling her again in the future.”
    Homegrown Decor, LLC
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in Bethesda
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 2, 2015
    “I had a wonderful experience working with Liza Holder from Homegrown Decor. We built a house from the ground up, and we couldn't have done it without Liza's help! Her eye for detail yet ability to focus on the big picture - all while remaining calm and super practical - made the whole process fun and sanity-saving. From helping us pick out tile to appliances to paint colors and all our furnishings, she was able to convey our personal tastes so well. The best part? It truly looks like "our" home. She also worked within our budget, helped us repurpose old furniture and rugs, accessorize and even make our home kid- (we have four of them!) and dog-friendly. I highly recommend Liza. It was a pleasure! Friends walk in and the first thing they say is, "I love your house!"”
    Interior Style by Marisa Moore
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in Bethesda
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 21, 2013
    “We have worked with Marisa for over a year on the remodel of our basement. We highly recommend her! We are probably unique clients because we did a lot of the work ourselves. Marisa was patient with us, worked at our pace, and was very responsive to our requests and questions during the remodel process. Our work with Marisa started by hiring her to help us design the space - entry way, living room, kids play area, exercise room, laundry room, guest room - including tearing down and building new walls. She provided a thorough lay out and design recommendations, including two great built-in shelving units and a new tiled gas fireplace. Her color, fabric, carpet, tile choices were spot-on. When furniture items were outside our budget range, she came up with good lower cost alternatives. And she always has recommendations for contractors or stores to meet our needs. Marisa is fabulous - her expertise is well worth the cost!”
    PT Designs Inc. / DDI
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in Bethesda
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 29, 2012
    “Paula is fantastic! The value of her service is immeasurable. She redecorated our previous residence, including our master bedroom, kitchen, basement, and living, dining, and family rooms. When we sold our house (which was a mere 19 days on the market, thanks in large part to Paula), I knew I would rely on her expertise, once again, to assist with the design choices in our newly-built home. Paula listened to our ideas, desires, and concerns, and translated them into interiors that are beautiful, functional, and within the parameters of our budget. She instinctively understood how to incorporated some of our existing pieces to create a stylish, clean, simply gorgeous atmosphere. I can't wait to begin our next project!”

    “We were very pleased with Rose's work on our two bathrooms. She pulled a great look together, helped us visualize options, and was very responsive to our feedback. She helped us complete the project in a cost-effective, pleasing fashion.”
    Erika Jayne Design Build
    Interior Designers & House Decorators in Bethesda
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 25, 2019
    “Erika is truly talented. We hired her to update and remodel the kitchen, living room, bathrooms and foyer in our recently purchased home. We immediately knew that we were in good hands. She took the time to ask the right questions and really listen to my husband and I as we described what what most important to us. Her designs maximized space, minimized unnecessary expense and transformed our house (built in the 1980's) into a fresh and modern home. When it came time to decorate, she selected furniture and accents that fit our design aesthetic and more importantly our lifestyle. I certainly have a taste for the finer things, but with a dog and a baby, we wanted to make sure that we were smart and economical with our purchases. Erika took all of this into consideration while sourcing items for our home, finding us items that we not only loved, but could feel good about buying for our family. My husband and I joke that Erika knows what we really want before we do, but it's not really a joke. She puts great care into her work and it's incredibly important to her that her clients love the finished product - and we most certainly do!”

    The work of a professional can make all the difference. Whether your home has 10 bedrooms, or your apartment is 800 square feet, it can be tricky to create a cohesive look that is representative of your style. That's where a local Bethesda interior designer comes in. A home interior decorator will help distill your tastes and ideas into a design that suits the needs of your space. Whether you need help creating a functional space plan, rearranging existing pieces, designing the inside of a new home, or simply sourcing amazing furniture and decor, seeking the help of professional home interior designers and house decorators in Bethesda, MD is a must.



    What does an Bethesda 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 — 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 Bethesda 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 home professionals to help create the perfect look for your renovation.


    Do your research before meeting with an interior design contractor or home decorator. 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 interior design firms in Bethesda 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 Bethesda 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?

    Find interior designing services on Houzz in Bethesda, MD. Narrow your search in the Professionals section to find interior designers or home decorators near you. You can also look through photos to find a room you like, then contact the design firm who designed it.


    If you search for Interior Designer near me you'll be sure to find a business that knows about the trends and styles for bathroom, kitchen, or whole house remodels.



    Interior Designer License in Bethesda, MD
