Interior Designers & House Decorators Near Marietta-Alderwood

“My husband and I, along with our two large dogs, moved into a condo that needed extensive new cabinetry for storage, and for the kitchen to be gutted and replaced with something that actually worked for us. We contacted Jennifer on the recommendation of someone who had engaged her to assist in the renovation of their Mount Vernon home. Having seen for ourselves what Jennifer had accomplished with this home, and having heard from the homeowners about how wonderful she was to work with, we can say that Jennifer proceeded to surpass every expectation we had. Not once did we experience the negative aspects about working with contractors that one so often hears about. When Jennifer bid the job, she made it clear what it would cost and on what occasion (if we added on, or changed our minds) something might go over the bid, so we were never surprised by an unanticipated expense. Along with her contractor’s skill in the actual building part of work (either on her own, or with her subs), Jennifer has an excellent eye for design. It was great to work with someone who has such a breadth of skills and experience! She advised us on many things we might have overlooked, suggested some smart improvements, and helped us make what seemed like a million decisions. She showed up - every single time - when she said she would, she communicated fully throughout the entire process about everything that was going to happen, and she never left us wondering if we’d hear from her. She warned us about timing, she fully respected our design choices, she used excellent subcontractors (and when one fell a bit short, she negotiated a satisfactory outcome) and she gave us plenty of warning on when things would happen and how long they would take. In retrospect, I had no idea about how many moving pieces there were to a project, how much scheduling of so many people was involved, or how unanticipated adjustments had to be made without disrupting the work flow. Throughout, Jennifer was calm, reassuring, professional, and kind. We are just so very pleased with the work she did and the results we got. The quality is outstanding. Her professionalism is unparalleled. We could not recommend Jennifer more highly and do so utterly without reservation.”

“We worked with SGDI on the interior design of our forever home in Steveston, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. We provided the SGDI team with inspiration images of what we were hoping to achieve, and they did an amazing job of pulling out the elements we loved most while elevating them with a fresh, thoughtful perspective that felt both unique and timeless. Beyond their incredible eye for design, we were consistently impressed by the team’s strong technical knowledge, which made a huge difference throughout the build process. Communication with Stephanie, our primary designer, as well as the rest of the SGDI team, was excellent across the board. We truly appreciated their responsiveness to all of our questions and felt well supported at every stage of the project. Our favourite space in the home is our kitchen/great room. We spend so much time in this space, and we are so grateful for how beautiful and thoughtfully designed it is. Visually, it incorporates everything we wanted without having to sacrifice function. We would highly recommend SGDI to anyone looking to build or renovate. Their knowledge and ability to take an idea and turn it into something beautiful and personal is unmatched. Beyond that, the entire team is simply wonderful to work with, which made the process far more seamless than we ever thought possible.”

“If you want your space to be a masterpiece, then hire Form Collective!! Lauren and her team designed my living room, dining room, and hallway. They will most certainly be hired to design the rest of my house, as I am now fully aware of the value, knowledge, expertise, and creativity that interior designers bring to the table. Being a new homeowner is stressful and overwhelming, I had no idea which way to turn. I had a million ideas of what I wanted to do with the space but none of it made any sense. It was such a relief and comfort to have Form Collective guide the way for me. I was given lots of time to buy each design piece and the space came together after about a year. Lauren and Josephina are friendly, intelligent, talented, and highly professional ladies who have a keen eye for style, form, and function. They will listen to your ideas and come up with a design that will blow your mind. Throughout the design process, it was very clear to me that Lauren and Josephina knew what they were doing. Each piece or form was thought of carefully and placed with precision to maximize function. It almost felt as if they understood the vision in my head of what I wanted the space to look like - glittery, shimmery, gorgeous, modern, sleek, dramatic, and spectacular; however, I did not have the skills to articulate that vision or bring it to life, while Form Collective clearly did!! The final product turned out to be not only beautiful and unique but functional. In the end, I trusted them more than I trusted myself.”
