Ackerbloom Vela Interiors

Debra is an incredibly talented designer and person. She had a vision for our first family home after relocating to Tampa and involved us in the entire designing process. Her professionalism and kindness made it for a very easy transition and my family is in love with our home. I would highly recommend her to every individual in the greater Tampa area! I wish I could give her 10 stars, not just 5!

Debra was instrumental in my South Tampa rehab of a 1922 Hyde Park House. Debra was involved in every aspect from complete renovation, to new kitchen, to new bathrooms and just did an amazing job. I definitely plan to use her services on my next project. Highly recommended. 5 Star!

Debra Ackerbloom has to be not only one of the "Best in the Bay Area," she has also done an amazing job in our lakefront Mediterranean style home in Lake County. She is easy to work with and incredibly talented. She has given our home a comfortable updated look and we cannot tell you how many compliments we have received. We highly recommend Debra Ackerbloom Interior Designs.

Amazing describes it all. We hired Debra for a living room/dining room makeover. She exceeded our expectations for both style and professionalism and completed the project by deadline. I would not hesitate to recommend Debra. We enjoyed the experience so much I am trying to find a new project just for the opportunity to work with her again.

Debra is a highly qualified Interior Designer. First, Debra has very strong design skills. She quickly understood our wishes, likes, and needs and developed a vision that exceeded our expectations. She has a strong eye for space planning, size, scale, color, and texture that have enabled her to create spaces that are practical and livable, while also being very beautiful and interesting. The results of her work have been more than we imagined while staying true to who we are and how we like to live. Second, Debra has very strong communication and interpersonal skills. She always conveys her thoughts clearly and listens to ours. She has learned what is important to both my wife and to me, and is able to speak to each of us in a way that recognizes our individual wants and needs. Lastly, Debra has very strong business skills and is always professional. She is always on time, responds to questions quickly and her presentation sheets are very impressive and easy to understand. She has a strong attention to detail and follows the project from start to finish making sure all the loose ends are finished up. She has been clear on our budget, and her recommendations always fit within that. After this project ends, we will continue to consider Debra our partner when it comes to design decisions for our home.

Working with Debra was a fantastic experience. I thought it would be intimidating to work with a "Designer" but she always expressed her design ideas very clearly, so we could visualize the end result. She was very professional and informative throughout the entire process. She really listened to our needs, and met them -- Debra is very good at what she does! She was always very conscious of our budget range. She continuously shopped multiple vendors to get us the best product and price for each area of the project. And always high quality products to choose from. Our space turned out even better than we could have imagined, and I was so happy I just let her run with it. Not a day goes by that we don't say how much we love what she did - the room layout, the furniture design, the details - all of it perfect. Debra Ackerbloom 5-Stars Highly recommended!

Debra Ackerbloom Interiors is strongly recommended! I had never worked with a designer before hiring Debra, and I can't express how pleased I was with the results. She is extremely talented and very easy to work with. She perfectly merged the base structure of my house and the opportunity it presented with my wish list and then upped it 10 fold. The house is stunning. Everybody that comes over compliments the new look. And it's very comfortable when just hanging out with the family. We love the style and the comfort On a previous home, I spent countless hours selecting paint colors at Home Depot, Kitchens at he local Retailer, Flooring from the Discount Flooring Center, and Furniture from various Outlets. So, I assumed with a Designer, it would cost more, but I was willing to save the painful hours of selections. To my surprise, Debra's products were substantially lower than the Retail Outlets, so when it was all said and done, my project cost less than me doing it myself. Big surprise. And everything looked top notch versus my previous house where everything was a color shade or 2 off and nothing quite felt right. I strongly recommend using a designer and definitely Debra Ackerbloom. It cost less. It looks better. It saves time. Debra Ackerbloom Interiors is a Win/Win.

I was looking for guidance in selecting area rugs, window treatments, and other accessories to finish off my new home. A friend referred me to Debra, and she and I hit it off from the beginning. Her vision was consistent with mine, and she provided top-notch service in providing a nicely tuned selection of products from which to choose, professional and friendly interactions, flexibility, and deliverables. I couldn't be happier with the final product.

Why every relationship and home needs Debra Ackerbloom. I purchased the first home my partner and I planned to live together in and we needed help. With two different aesthetics, strong opinions, and a relationship in the balance, Debra was a saving grace. She helped us make smart decisions and the condo is really coming together. Her choices have been flawless and her business partners are professionals! I condo is going to be cool , hype and modern. My budget is still intact also.

I have worked with Debra on 2 different projects, and I found them to be a very pleasurable. experience. She has great ideas, she keeps her jobs well organized and Debra goes above and beyond to make sure her clients needs are met. I would highly recommend her for any project.

We have worked very closely with Debra Ackerbloom on two homes and she's been an invaluable part of the process. We start every project consulting with her on design, color schematic, and space planning. We rely on her to source everything from window treatments to the tiniest accessory. Debra has designed builtins and a custom banquet for us as well. She has been instrumental in finding contractors and sees everything through installation. Debra's creativity and ability to really hear and understand how our family lives and uses the space has been one of the reasons we love working with her. She is incredibly professional and we highly recommend her services.

Debra is right on the money with ideas, concepts and strategies for turning your home into an elegant, yet comfortable space! She is very easy to deal with and directs you in the right direction... Especially for those of us with zero design background. I highly recommend Debra if you are looking to improve the look and feel of your space!
