Carmit Oron Interior Design

We really enjoyed working with Carmit and love what she had done with all of our bathrooms (2.5) as well as our den (built in library shelves). She is really good at generating ideas and building upon them; she listens well to understand taste and priorities. Carmit can really see the potential in every space and her designs are especially fresh and modern without being complicated. She’s also efficient at narrowing down options, creating designs, and executing the project and that was worth every cent. I have a few other projects in mind and will definitely hire Carmit to do them even if I have to wait a few months.

My partner and I are about to move home after 9 months of transforming a 1000 square ft. 60's ranch into a modern 2100 square ft. beauty. From the first meeting with Carmit, we knew we had found a talented and dedicated professional. She has been absolutely invaluable in a major project. She is organized, honest, efficient, diplomatic, patient, and creative. Carmit has taken our ideas and refined them into a stunning home, completely within our original budget and time frame. I can not imagine this project nor would I embark on another one without her.

Carmit did a great job designing our family room. She also helped us to choose flooring, curtains, rug, sofa...Carmit is hard-working, very responsive, always replies in a timely manner even on the weekends and late nights. It was a pleasure working with Carmit. We highly recommend her and are grateful for the amazing design she designed for us.

We moved into a new house with very little furniture. Carmit helped us completely furnish and decorate our living & dining room, as well as create and install a custom storage/TV wall unit. She is a very good listener. We struggled to imagine how pieces would look together, so she created not only vision boards but also 3D renderings. We wanted to buy from stores we could see the items in person. Carmit gave us recommendations for items within our style and helped us think through trade-offs of budget/quality from a variety of stores like RH, West Elm, Serena & Lily. She also passed on her designer discount where possible to us. She connected us with contractors who were competitive in their pricing. She also brought in finishing touches like plants and vases for final staging for a photo shoot, and we kept/paid for items we liked. We had strong opinions about how things should look, but we trust Carmit to not only bring in her own perspective but also listen to our feedback. The only area of improvement: including her subcontractors into our discussions earlier so we could avoid miscommunications about what is and isn't possible. We spent some cycles and had to fix some issues due to contractors telling carmit something, but us not being in the loop.

Carmit is super talented and has a great eye and understanding of space, style and budget and can think outside of the box. Our living room and dining area had transformed in a way we couldn't have imagined and we love the new look. Thank you.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Carmit and the result was stunning. We highly recommend her, not only for her amazing taste but for her incredible ability to accommodate the clients needs and preferences. She is thorough and hard working and we can’t praise her enough. She managed the renovation of our old house and the interior design of our new house. Both in Los Altos.

When we approached our project we knew we must find a designer that can design the house to our taste and needs but more importantly can lead the project from start to finish. From the first moment and until the very end of the project, Carmit was simply awesome and a delight to work with. Everything in the project went exactly as we hoped it will. Carmit was there to lead the project, solve the problems, make adjustments as needed, come up with great ideas on the fly and somehow always with a smile on her face. We were lucky to work with Carmit and would do everything all over again without hesitation!

As part of a huge home remodel, we worked with Carmit to design a completely new kitchen as well as new fireplace/shelving for our family room. We could not be happier with the results. We didn't really know what we wanted and Carmit effortlessly guided us to designs that suited us perfectly. She was very, very responsive, a key factor for us. She even followed up with the (less responsive) general contractor when we expressed frustration with them, even though that was not her responsibility. She really helped to get the entire project moving. We've been enjoying our remodel for nearly 2 years now and I still absolutely adore everything. I'm never moving from this house. Thanks, Carmit!!

My husband and are just finishing a huge top-to-bottom home renovation with Carmit as our designer. It was a big project from the very beginning but it got bigger and bigger as we added more areas of the house we wanted to update. My husband and I have very different tastes but Carmit was instrumental in helping us find a happy medium and give us a final look we were both extremely satisfied with. We knew we wanted to get rid of walls on the main level and change the configuration of our master bathroom. Even though Carmit is not a general contractor from the first meeting she had an eye for accurately figuring out what was possible in term of structural changes. She was always easy to reach and a pleasure to work with.

Carmit did a great job designing our house remodel. Remodeling can be hard since there are existing house limitations we have to work with. Carmit had amazing ideas on how to turn limitations into a beautiful and stylish design. Carmit - thank you so much for your talent! I know that I was not easy to work with, thank you for your patience all this time! We wake up every morning enjoying each and every detail: the mustard doors, the black hinges, the dark accent shelves, the chalk doors, the huge skylight, the oriental tile, the books organized by color (!), the grey and dusty blush colors scheme, the beautiful Carrera tile in the kitchen, the concrete like countertop and many many more! We LOVE and appreciate every single detail! The only thing I'm sorry about is that I haven't listened to all your recommendations :-) Thank you again!

Carmit was our designer and managed our house remodeling project for over 5 months. Carmit is amazingly creative, and has a lot of great ideas. She helped us choose everything from wall colors to door handles! She is always available, and tried to help us save money throughout the duration of the project. We highly recommend Carmit and are super grateful for the amazing house she designed for us! Itay

Carmit was the best part of my kitchen remodel! She has a great sense of design and really has an eye for what looks good together. On top of that, she is so sweet and patient! I was so overwhelmed by all the choices out there. Carmit took me shopping many times. Each time, I would find an inspiration piece and she would pull together coordinating pieces that all looked amazing. I had a hard time deciding which way I wanted to go with my kitchen and Carmit was so patient with me. She also had to make sure to incorporate my husband's taste which wasn't easy. She also saw to all the details of the installation like which direction the tiles would flow and how the seam between different flooring types should be done. At the time, I had no idea how important these little details were. thank goodness we had Carmit looking out for us. I came to really depend on and trust Carmit. If she said something would look good together, I believed her. I LOVE my kitchen and Carmit was a key player in making it all happen!

I worked with Carmit for a few months on our new office project. From the first moment, Carmit came with great ideas and of the box thinking, which eventually made our office to be unique and most importantly a great workspace for our employees.from budget perspective , Carmit presented us a few options. Together we built the most suitable plan. Carmit is 100% dedicated to the project , she is fun to work with , always available and the best part - she has never ending ideas which will make you go WOW!!

Carmit was fantastic to work with and helped make the entire process extremely simple. Carmit helped with everything from choosing the right tile, grout and layout to helping design our bathroom layouts. She also added this special touch by designing a built-in linen cabinets for our children's bathroom so that all their towels were easily accessible. Lastly, she worked closely with the contractor and subs to ensure that her designs were being implemented correctly. I absolutely recommend Carmit and would love to work with her again for our next project.

Carmit has been amazing. We chose her do design our house as we decided to renovate after the purchase and she did a wonderful job. She is talented, responsive, attentive to ones needs and has a unique attention to details. Renovating a house is not a simple task but Carmit made it a much easier experience for us. I highly recommend her.

I recently completed a ~$350,000 project working with Carmit that comprised the renovation of my kitchen, three bathrooms, and the construction of a kitchenette to service my patio. My house is a 1920s era Mediterranean style house in the Forest Hill neighborhood of San Francisco. I had not undertaken a project of this scale before (really, any residential renovations) and I count myself luck to have found her. We spent a good deal of time talking through the concept in addition to an in-person walk through. I wanted to retain the original, characteristic elements of the house while giving it a tasteful update. Carmit had some diagrams of the spaces that were done by the engineer and she subsequently corrected them as she found errors. We talked though the initial design concept multiple times and she provided me with well thought through choices. Carmit came on to my project late in the game and worked incredibly hard to get us up to speed with all the requisite decisions. I did not know the first thing about choosing plumbing fittings/fixtures, where to place light switches, or any of the technical choices I would otherwise have been left choosing for myself. Beyond that, she gave me some remarkable (*daydreaming* of magazine covers) design ideas. Once we started making some choices and she got a sense for my aesthetic – we were totally in sync. I feel like I was lucky. If you have to explain what you’re going for after conversations and initial choices – you’re in trouble. While this may sound contrived, I came to really look forward to my appointments and conversations with Carmit. If you are considering a project, I welcome you reaching out to me personally. I’m happy to speak in detail about the scope of my project, budget expectations, and my experience working with her. I am someone who gets blinded by the choices of showrooms, and Carmit, highlighted the areas of my project where we could economize while still keeping a cohesive design scheme without prompting. Without her guidance, I would have found myself way over budget and at a loss for where to make sensible cuts. She is highly budget conscious and will deliver based on your requirements. Where you will find the most benefit from Carmit’s expertise is actually in the execution of the design. I asked her to work hand-in-hand with my contractor. She was present for each of the critical meetings and was willing to trade e-mails or have conversations based on my schedule. With her precise eye and understanding of our objectives she managed the job. I spent… I would say 25% of the time and effort I might otherwise have expended. Never underestimate the value of a translator if you’re not intimately familiar with renovation/construction work. I suspect this is her least favorite part of the engagement ---which is probably why it will be the most valuable to you. If I can offer no other advise it’s this: find a designer who understands you, but hire them to see the work through in partnership with your contractor. It will save you time, aggravation, and mistakes…a lot of the hell people normally complain about. It is an investment. Also, while I believe Carmit is the best, meet with several designers and see for yourself before you get underway.

Carmit is a very professional designer, her ideas are both creative and beautiful and at the same time practical. In addition, it was important for Carmit to understand our personal taste and our needs. She is very kind and it was a joy to work with her!

As a boutique style construction company we have the privilege to work with some really good people in our industry, we recently found out that Carmit Oron is one of those skillful professionals. Hiring Carmit Oron as the designer for the first house our company built from ground up was absolutely worth it. Carmit did an outstanding job not only in the design but also in assisting us with the project management and coordination. As a designer she completely understood our vision, she's got a good eye for colors and managed to create a design that is both tasteful, elegant and cost efficient to us as her client. We appreciate what Carmit did for us and are looking forward to the next project we will work on together.

Carmit has been absolutely perfect for us and our taste. Couldn't ask for more and I'll keep coming back to her! We bought our house - it was in good condition but somewhat dark/old fashion taste. Both my husband and I were afraid of someone too imposing with their taste and we knew we like a lot of light, space, modern look and calm feeling in the house. But we didn't know much beyond that and we are both pretty weak with design of any sort. Carmit saw the potential right away and knew exactly what needs to be done. Her attention to details is unsurpassed. She had great recommendations but also a lot of respect to our taste and what we like. She has the perfect balance which made her extremely fun to work with and the house turned out AMAZING! Can't thank you enough and we'll be back for furniture and more changes soon!

If you need an Interior Designer do not look any further than Carmit Oron. We had such a great time designing our kitchen with Carmit and there is not one thing I would change, we love our kitchen so much! Carmit guided us right from the start, she spent a lot of time with us looking at designs and understanding what we like and then helped us think a little more out of the box. We would never have chosen a blue island and had a chalkboard wall but it is stunning! We had a tight budget and Carmit made sure that we kept to that. I was most grateful to her for narrowing down all the overwhelming options for materials. We went on an initial shopping trip with her so she could work out what we liked and explain materials and costs to us, which was so helpful and really helped us own our project. She then continued to send us links to things we might like and was relentless until we all agreed. She was incredibly patient, available, knowledgeable and hardworking, we had complete confidence in her. She was as passionate about creating our new kitchen as we were and her enthusiasm kept us going as we microwaved our frozen meals. I can’t wait to get her back to do our other projects, she has real vision and talent and knows how to design something that is both functional and beautiful! I want to throw open the doors and show our kitchen off to the world!

Carmit is a talented professional with a gifted eye, and a pleasure to work with. She picked up on our individual taste and translated it to beautiful design and made it happen by working with the contractors. We love our home!

Carmit designed our kitchen and did an amazing job! Carmit is very professional and passionate about her work. She is very creative and has great ideas on how to make the most out of a space. She was very attentive to our needs and dreams of how we want the kitchen to look like and made it a reality. The result is not only beautiful but also very functional. We loved her sense of style and her attention to details. We enjoyed working with Carmit as she has a lot of patience and a positive personality which makes it fun and easy to work with. Carmit, thanks again for the wonderful job! We LOVE our kitchen!

We really enjoyed working with Carmit, she helped us a lot through our home remodeling process, she is very creative and quickly visualized our ideas into plans, we loved her taste and recommendations and very happy with her work and our “finish product”. she is a terrific designer and I highly recommend.....

Carmit is super talented and super nice person to work with. She had help us with a large remodel of our house, including kitchen, bathrooms and internal design of some of the rooms, and the public spaces.. Carmit was always there for us when we needed her advice / input, and was avilable to response in very timely manner. She has designed our entire kitchen, in very low budget, and we love the way it turned out. She was professional and has brought to out attention things that the architect fail to notice, like problematic access to the refrigerator in the kitchen. She was always very attentive to what we want, and has been very supportive throughout this long process. I highly recommend Carmit to anyone who want a great interior designer who is professional, reliable and would be fun to work with.

we worked with Carmit on 2 projects and were very satisfied! Carmit's ideas and suggested solutions addressed our needs, preferences, budget and timelines. She always followed up on us (as we sometimes didn't meet our own timelines...), making sure we stay on top of everything in order to complete the project in the best possible way. we LOVE our house and get a lot of complements from many friends (and even neighbors!) on its design.

As a stone contractor I love to work with talented people that works as a team. Carmit it a team player, great person to work with. Very professional. Works along with her clients, Listing to their dreams and make them come true. She really cares for her customers and always do the extra mile for them. I've done a several jobs with her and I would defiantly recommend her to my clients.
