Sāo Design Studio LLC
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Northbrook

“I have worked with Laura since we bought our house 8 years ago. She has done an amazing job at helping us decorate to our tastes -- but at least 10x better than we could have done on our own. She's helped us understand the space, what furniture will fit in it, the colors that will work best, etc. I think she's actually saved us money because every choice is well thought out -- we do not have to later discard items that do not fit or that do not coordinate well. Laura is very efficient and professional. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
Gemma Parker Design, LLC
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Northbrook
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 27, 2015
“We had the pleasure of working with Gemma to update our family room and kitchen. The results are outstanding! Gemma's incredible eye for design and extremely professional working style made the project a pleasure from start to finish. Gemma has an excellent eye for detail and architecture. She took my many inspiration photos and created new spaces that feel as though they've always been in our home. She thought of every last detail, so the spaces feel truly finished. Gemma is a great communicator and there were no surprises. She was clear about what our budget would permit, and was creative about making it work. She has excellent taste and has clear opinions, which helped me make good decisions. Gemma has outstanding resources in Chicago and long working relationships with those vendors -- it was clear how much they trust and respect her taste. From furniture to artwork to window treatments to accessories, she can make anything happen. We are thrilled with the outcome and would absolutely work with her again. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone.”

“AKD provided my wife and I with design and consultation services related to our kitchen and family room. AKD was also our resource for the general contractor we engaged, as well as the architect and cabinet maker. We could not have expected anything better. AKD exceeded our extremely high expectations. We highly recommend AKD to our friends.”
Esslinger Design Company

“Chad was great to work with! After 8 years with a large empty stairwell wall I was so excited to work with Chad to design a picture wall. He really listened to what I was looking for and made it a reality. I truly LOVE my picture wall and so many people love it when they walk in my house. I used to see this type of wall in magazines only and love that one is in my house telling my families story.”

“Emily and Maggie were great. Very organized and detailed oriented. They made sure I was 100% happy with the end product and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a one-stop designer/coordinator.”
Impeccable by Meredith Park
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Northbrook
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 18, 2015
“Meredith is an amazing designer. It is apparent she loves her job. She understood my style, my needs and my budget. When I wanted an item that did not fit into my budget, she found a way to make it fit or explained to me why this would put the project over budget and found alternatives when necessary. She designed our rental condo unit in the city, which was a clean slate and our new offices for my market research company. I always felt comfortable expressing my opinion and she was always quick to change out an item if I expressed doubt about it. I believe using Meredith actually saved me money while still achieving my goals and meeting my deadlines. I can't wait to work with Meredith on my next project-a basement design.”

“I've had the pleasure of working with Jill for a few years now. Her style and taste in decor is impeccable. Since I photograph the work she has completed for her clients, it's always a treat to see the finished images. Beyond being an extremely talented interior designer, her styling and propping talents are beyond reproach!”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 8, 2012
“I had an excellent experience with LMR Designs. I trusted Linda completely with her design and color recommendations and everything came out better than I could have imagined. I was so pleased with the first project that Linda did for me that she subsequently picked out paint colors for every room in my house and re-designed my living room. I highly recommend Linda. She's professional in every sense of the word.”

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 Northbrook, IL — 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 Northbrook, IL 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 Northbrook, IL. 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 Northbrook 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 Northbrook 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?
