Calm & Collected

Contacting Jennifer was a great decision! She came to look at the areas I needed help with and listened to my ideas. Space planning stumped me and was our major issue. I found her ideas to be fresh and imaginative. I would have no hesitation in using her again. She gets two thumbs up!

Jennifer did a wonderful job for us helping us design a new office space that we were acquiring. We had a very tight deadline and she got everything back to us in a very timely manner - even quicker than we anticipated! She was very professional and we will definitely use her services again if are in need in the future!

I recommend Jennifer highly; she provided a comprehensive and creative solution to a room that was struggling to find its purpose. Through a collaborative e-mail process, she provided a thoughtful design plan that worked with our schedule and budget. The detailed product source list and shopping guide were particularly helpful, allowing us to implement her design recommendations at a pace that fit our needs.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Jennifer Terry on my Living Room; so much so I hired her to help me with my office/guest room and master bedroom. If/when I have more rooms to make over, I will definitely use Jennifer Terry of Calm & Collected. Jennifer took the time to really understand want I wanted, my style, my personality, interests and budget by asking questions, gathering images of various rooms and pieces that grabbed my attention. She even found the chair for which I'd been searching to buy; and couldn't for under $1200. Jennifer found it for $600. It was so much fun going back and forth with ideas while she compiled the final visions from paint colors, to pictures and wall art, to lamps and layout of the furniture. We had quite a few laughs along the way. I absolutely love, love, love all my rooms. Each room depicts a different aspect of me - sophisticated; accomplished; glam. Instead of sitting in these rooms unsatisfied, they are now my sanctuaries. I am so happy and proud. I highly recommend working with Jennifer. It doesn't matter how big or small the project, Jennifer attacks the project with the same passion.

I have had the opportunity to work with Jennifer virtually on four projects (rooms) over the past 3-4 months. We have actually spoken to each other only once. Surprisingly, working virtually is doable. If you are looking for a partner rather than a control freak I encourage you to work with Jennifer. She is that person you can bounce things off of as you narrow in on what feels right to you. The collaborative process is rewarding. Because your voice is heard throughout, in the end, you are left with what works for you.

We have been working with Jennifer, via e-design, to furnish out new home in Cape Cod. To say that her work has been amazing, is a gross understatement. She truly listens to her clients, and then tirelessly goes and finds things to match your vision. Our house came together in a matter of a few months. We could never have done this so quickly without her. Simply extraordinary.

What a wonderful experience to work with this lady. Not only did she listen to my desires and thoughts, she incorporated them into the designs she presented me. What fun to work with her and we are so pleased with our finished room. We have had so many compliments on it. Wish I had used her earlier.

We are a larger family living in a very small space. We hired Jennifer to help us use our main living space (kitchen/dining and living room) more efficiently. She came for an extremely comprehensive and personal first visit. She measured, asked questions and generally assessed our design likes and dislikes. Within a very short time frame, she came back with two plans for each of the rooms-- one re-using existing furniture (a "best for now" plan) and one to guide us as we make changes and purchases over time (an ideal space use plan). We are not people who could afford a big-budget make-over or redesign and what Jennifer provided was affordable and helped us tremendously. After she left, we simply moved our furniture around and the difference has been amazing! We plan to use her in the future when we refinish our basement and re-do our main bathroom. Her input is invaluable!

I hired Calm & Collected to help me organize/overhaul my craft room. In short order, Jennifer established a system in which I could work and feel comfortable. She helped me purge the unnecessary items and clean out the chaos; all the while anticipating my needs and eliminating my anxieties. I was not sure that my space was workable. It was, after all, small and oddly shaped. Now, I have a functional space. While at the house, I asked for some design advice. Jennifer suggested a few, inexpensive enhancements which turned out to work perfectly. All three rooms in which she recommended changes look great now that I've implemented them. I would recommend Calm and Collected for anyone who needs organizational assistance. She will make you feel so accomplished and empowered!

Jennifer was able to create a design plan for my hone office. It has been and still is a goal of mine to create a beautiful work space that encourages creativity and calm. I am very happy with the design that Jennifer provided and the timelines of her work. Although the project was put on the back burner to complete other remodeling in our home, I look forward to picking back up with it and would most definitely use Jennifer again!

We recently bought a vacation home at the beach, and Jennifer did a wonderful job with helping us furnish and decorate it. She offered great suggestions and really helped us carry out our vision for the home. Jennifer was truly a pleasure to work with!

Jennifer was extremely professional and respectful. She walked through every room in my house and was helpful in providing advice for updates and keeping things I had that did not need to be changed. I asked her help in a huge remodel and she was invaluable. She came to my house several times and provided great ideas, insight and follow through. I could not have gotten through this without her help. Between paint colors, furniture, lamps , rugs and pillows we worked through things together and she worked within my taste and budget. It turned out amazing.
