Featured Reviews for Green Building Companies in San Francisco

Design Matters
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 29, 2012
“How wonderful to have a decorator who does not provide cookie-cutter designs. She looked at our home, listened to who we are and what we wanted and provided us with choices. From our slate entry to our new floors to the built-ins in the family room to our granite in the kitchen and bathroom, it all ties together to provide a warm, comfortable home. We get so many compliments, I think we may have the design others want to copy.”
Coddington Design
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 10, 2013
“Melanie designed my kitchen remodel. She patiently listened to my concerns and desires. Her first recommendation was to look at many kitchens on Houzz and add the ones I liked to an ideabook. This made it easy for me to see what style I wanted. Her design was wonderful. She opened up the space, and made the most of what we had. Melanie helped me with questions and problems throughout the remodel. Melanie made the process as smooth as possible. We love our new kitchen.”
Christy Collection International
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 19, 2021
“We can't say enough great things about Christy Collection and Shelf-O-Matic products! They are 1/3 to 1/2 the price of any ShelfGenie and the personal attention and care given to our projects was unprecedented! We have used Shelf-O-Matic for projects in several states and the attention to detail and quality of work was fantastic! We are so happy with the communication and quality of work! They have a lifetime warranty and replacement plan with no questions asked...also, the warranty is completely transferable to any future purchasers of the property.”

“I always enjoy working with Lynn! A passionate and talented designer, Lynn brings a fresh perspective to her projects. I appreciate her attention to detail and organization. Her aesthetic is unique and I am truly impressed with her innovative design solutions. She is always quick to answer questions and respond to emails. I look forward to working with Lynn in the future.”
Kirsten Pike Design
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 27, 2019
“I hired Kirsten Pike Design, upon recommendation by the concierge at The Harrison, to completely design and furnish my 30th story apartment overlooking San Francisco as well as San Francisco Bay. Kirsten was involved with every single, minute detail of the design and execution of her incredible vision for my home. She has a perfect balance between being a collaborator and yet be completely in charge…taking all stress away from the property owner. Earlier than mid project, I gave her carte blanche. She knew what I wanted and I trusted her know how 100%: Impeccable taste and finesse...Brilliant even. What a talent! Early in the project, I moved in. I travel a lot and we arranged for her to do the work when I was gone. Everything is now a cohesive whole so the living spaces, kitchen and bathrooms flow together. Amongst so many things, she designed a stunning wall of decorative plaster and a bar that is as lovely as it is practical. My space is a jewel box where nothing is left to coincide. Also every delivery was overseen and the small practicalities that a homeowner doesn't want to deal with before, during and after a remodel. When I wasn't pleased with my high end flower delivery service, Kirsten did it personally and once again blew my away. I am just sad that when I come home from my travels there isn’t a new “surprise” waiting for me, as the apartment is perfect! I think any discerning person with high expectations will be very happy with Kirsten Pike Design.”
Lane McNab Interiors
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 22, 2014
“We have partnered with Lane at Urban Orchard Interiors on numerous projects she has designed for clients. From a custom media cabinet and end tables handcrafted out of reclaimed doug fir, reclaimed teak dressers, to a reclaimed white oak dining room table and bed frame. Lane passionately works with her clients to create beautiful spaces with an emphasis on the use of sustainable materials. Highly recommend!”
TINEKE TRIGGS
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 28, 2011
“Tineke Triggs is innovative, open-minded, creative, and a delight to work with. Tineke is flexible, tireless and full of wonderful ideas. She's always open to a challenge and able to tackle any problems that arise mid-remodel. The things that drive all of us crazy, Tineke just takes in stride. I highly recommend Tineke. She did a complete remodel of our kitchen, moved walls, opened walls, but in really smart ways, that used the space brilliantly -- she thinks like an architect and does her work at a systemic level, never just window-dressing, but really beautiful outcomes that work for your family. ”
Megan Warren Design
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 28, 2019
“Megan is professional, personable and flexible. She gets to know your taste and budget and works within your constraints, all the while coming up with fantastic ideas that you never would have come up with on your own. She is thorough and thoughtful and offers great choices for your consideration. Megan does not force any aesthetic on you, appreciating your style preferences while giving her expert opinion and advice. We were extremely pleased with Megan's working style and the end results and recommend her wholeheartedly!”
Evoke Interior Designs
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 9, 2013
“I have worked with Joey before and he is an amazing designer and very pleasant to work with. He is a true professional- communicates thoroughly, is well organized, timely and flexible in addition. He really understands the full spectrum of design styles- he isn't stuck in a single aesthetic and can really do anything which I think is a rare and highly valuable quality in a designer. Joey is very considerate of the client's wishes while, at the same time, is able to guide them appropriately through the decision making process to achieve their vision.”
Ariel Arts
Green Building Companies in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 10, 2022
“Ariel has such a light hand and does everything with such ease! My partner and I were overwhelmed with trying to quickly furnish our new home and starting with almost nothing. I tend to overthink every decision, so I really needed help bringing together a cohesive design and be confident in our decision making. This was also at the time that everything was out of stock, and Ariel was able to source items that were almost all entirely in stock. Ariel really listened to the exact requirements we had for our unique space and made sure that each piece would fit just right, with an emphasis on quality and longevity. More importantly, she helped us be brave when it came to bold design decisions. A dark and moody dining space is not something we would have ever thought of on our own, let alone been confident enough to execute. It ended up being the most stylish corner in our home, has such a Chicago vibe, and continues to be the source of inspiration for or other design decisions. Ariel really helped us quickly get from zero (literally only a mattress on the floor) to fully furnished in a matter of a couple of months. We are still putting together finishing touches and decorative elements, and Ariel's online design resources are really helpful for that as well.”

Interior Designer or Decorator FAQs
The duration of a green building project can vary widely based on its complexity, size, and specific green technologies employed. On average, a green building project may take slightly longer than a conventional one due to the careful selection of materials and implementation of innovative practices. A small to medium residential project could range from 6 to 18 months, whereas larger or more complex projects might take longer. Clear communication with your chosen company will help set realistic timelines.
Green Building Companies prioritize materials that are sustainable, recycled, or recyclable, have low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions, and are sourced locally when possible. Design trends lean towards maximizing natural light, improving indoor air quality, and incorporating energy-efficient systems. The choice of materials and design elements is influenced by environmental performance criteria, client preferences, and architectural trends focused on sustainability and resilience.
Homeowners should start by defining their goals for sustainability, budget, and design. Researching green building principles and familiarizing oneself with key concepts such as passive solar design, energy efficiency measures, and water conservation can be very helpful. Gathering inspiration and creating a vision board can also aid in communicating your desires to the building company. Lastly, securing financing and understanding any eligible green building incentives or rebates is crucial.
Challenges such as sourcing specific sustainable materials, adhering to green certification requirements, and managing costs are addressed through experienced project management, innovative problem-solving, and robust supplier networks. Companies stay abreast of the latest green technologies and strategies to navigate these challenges effectively, ensuring project goals are met without compromising on sustainability standards.
