Lily Z Designs
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Washington D.C.
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.”

Haus Interior Design
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Washington D.C.
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!”
Camille Saum Interior Design
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Washington D.C.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 9, 2014
“Ms. Saum provided us with ideas that were creative and innovative. Her plans included things that we never would have considered. Her selections (countertops, fixtures, appliances and floor coverings) included a range of price points from which to choose. The results were stunning! With Ms. Saum's help, I am confident that she saved us from making costly mistakes. Her workmen (electricians, plumbers, painters, tile and carpet installers) were all professional and did an excellent job as well.”
Kelly Marino Designs
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Washington D.C.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 27, 2015
“Working in Real Estate for almost 20 years allows most agents to build a trusted vendor list. A list that rarely adds new talent to the network. Kelly Marino Designs was no where near my radar when my listing in Alexandria came to be, but I will say this without a doubt... it was her level of expertise, professionalism, and tireless work ethic that got this home into the beautiful show piece it is today....and under contract within 3 days!! If you haven't heard of Kelly, don't worry, you will. If you haven't used her before, I urge you not to waste any more time and HIRE HER IMMEDIATELY...The results are there and proven! She is now a friend and trusted advisor. I am supremely confident that you'll feel the same way.”

“Barbara S. Design helped with the interior design of my Yoga Studio. Because of Barbi's vision, experience, talent, understanding of my vision, dedication and involvement, my yoga studio is beautiful, functional and exactly what I wanted. I can't express enough how pleased I was with this company. Using this company was one of the best decisions I made for my business. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a professional, talented, experienced and dedicated designer.”
Interior Style by Marisa Moore
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Washington D.C.
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!”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 3, 2013
“As a custom furniture maker, I work with many interior designers. I really feel lucky to have the opportunity to work with Melissa Broffman Interior Design. She is a consummate professional and an advocate for her clients. She cares about the details and is a great communicator: all the qualities one looks for in the best Interior designers. I would not hesitate to recommend her services!”
Kim Johnson Designs, LLC
Interior Designers & House Decorators in Washington D.C.
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.”

The work of a professional can make all the difference.

That's where a local Washington D.C. 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.

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 Washington D.C., DC — 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 Washington D.C., DC 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 Washington D.C., DC. 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 Washington D.C. 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 Washington D.C. 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?
