Playroom Designers in South Portland Gardens

“We have worked with Penelope Daborn Ltd. on several occasions. We are always pleased with the results. Penny has helped in choosing colors, fabrics and drapes. We recently built a new porch and we had seen a sofa we liked in a magazine. Penny helped to design the piece to be built. In addition she helped with the spatial arrangement of the room, the selection of fabric and window coverings and additional furnishings. We originally worked with Penelope Daborn Ltd. 7 years ago when we moved to a new house. We always come back for her expert eye, wealth of knowledge and the top notch coordination in making the arrangements for acquiring what we need.”

“Emily is the best of the best! She has a great eye and a fun personality to match. Always professional and prompt, she is extremely efficient and thorough with her work. Her passion for design is obvious and she loves bringing her client's vision to life! She is always respectful of the client's needs whether there is a strict budget or the sky is the limit. I would highly recommend working with e4!”

“Vanessa really *gets* us, and to the extent our house is warm, inviting, and comfortable, it is largely her doing. It is what we wanted without knowing we wanted it. We still find ourselves using her, even at long distance. She's just that good.”

“Theresa did an incredible job to help me redesign my living room. Her sense of style and design have made my home feel warm and inviting. I have had numerous comments from family and friends on the beauty of the space. Theresa made the process easy and affordable.”

“I went from a house full of blah, builder’s white walls to fabulous, spirited surroundings in a complementary palette of warm reds, yellows and greens. Sharon helped me to determine the right colors, coaching me every step of the way. And, she considered my budget and family's needs as we decorated.”

“Christina helped us decorate most all of our new home. She is smart, talented and an absolute joy to work with! She helped us co-ordinate our Ethan Allen furniture with window treatments and rugs, all in one fabulous store. A very professional woman, I would recommend Christi's expertise to anyone that needs advice with their decorating!”

“Marcye Philbrook did interior design work for us over a period of about a year. She is not only a great designer, but a delightful person to interact with in every way. Marcye is a good listener — she quickly understood what we were looking for and adapted her proposals to suit our tastes and sensibilities, while also introducing us to a lot of creative, new ideas. She even expertly negotiated differences between me and my husband, searching for products and regenerating designs until she could please us both. Her design concepts for the rooms in our home were natural, practical, designs-to-live-in. She has a wonderful sense for color and texture — I particularly enjoyed working with her to choose fabrics for pillow sets for our den and living room. The results were quite different for the two rooms, but each set is like a little artwork in itself, with a few fun, specially constructed patchworks that she put together thinking about both design and efficient use of the fabric. She also has great contacts for painters, wallpaperers, rug dealers, seamstresses, cabinet makers, etc., and was able to subcontract directly or guide us to businesses that were honest and reliable and who provided excellent quality products and services. When we realized we had a very tight spot for a bathroom sink, she custom designed a cabinet herself to maximize the use of the space and even made the trip to the marble company warehouse to personally choose the cut of stone to use for the top. I love Marcye and I’d hire her again in a heartbeat.”

“Jan Robinson helped us tremendously with our recent home interior redesign from meeting with us to understand our needs and lifestyle, selecting paint colors, recommending the painter, creating floor plans, recommending window treatments and furniture, lighting, carpet. Every step of the way we felt were in good hands. She is professional, warm, very knowledgable and most of all had our best interests at heart every step of the way.”

“Jordan's design and execution exceeded my expectations. She was very easy to communicate with and really listened to us about our ideas and any concerns we had. We love the room that Jordan created for us; not only does it look great, but it also has added a lot of functionality for the whole family. The design is just to our tastes, and it has made the space so much more inviting! We were super impressed with how seamlessly it all seemed to cover together. Thank you so much!”

“Melissa is by far the best thing that ever happened to me as someone in sales at a building company. She is able to guide and help customers to turn their idea's in their head and on paper into reality. Not only is it important in design to know what looks pretty, you have to know product and she does! She will keep the job rolling by having selections made and ready to order. I highly recommend working with Melissa!”
