Carol e Smith Gerth

Twenty years and three houses ago was introduced to Carol e Smith Interiors. Carol e's ability to listen to her client and her "thinking outside the box" creativity never ceases to amaze me. One example would be my overly large foyer. Carol e didn't suggest the usual round glass top table with a floral arrangement for the middle of the room. Instead she put an outdoor water fountain in an area that didn't interfere with the flow of the room. Thjs allowed me to use the open space to expand my dining room for a 20 guest dinner party and 2 weddings. After putting away the tables and chairs the foyer served as a large play area for our grandchildren. Like I said 20 years and 3 houses ago.. this was house #2. As of the review date I am currently using Carol e Smith Interiors in our new house.

I have worked with Carol for years and in three different homes. She is a lovely, friendly professional who listens to her clients' wishes. When we moved, she was able to re-purpose furniture we had to fit our new space. She respected our budget. She was also willing to do as much or as little of a project as we needed. I highly recommend her! (The Approximate Project Date below is indicative of the latest project. There were many prior to that date.)

Carol helped us build and design space that was perfect for our lifestyle and personalities. She brings an eclectic and visionary sense of style but it is never about her - she is laser focused on designing space that the client will love living in, within the client's budget. Carol has helped us fit furniture and decor we already had into new space in just the right way, she has helped us select new items that were perfect for our home, and she has quarterbacked a complete bathroom remodel for us. Guests in our home constantly compliment what Carol has designed and we continue to love living here! The value of having Carol's expertise guide our updates and purchases far exceeds dollar amounts. She has helped us maximize our home's value and create a haven we love to live in over the past three years.

I have worked with Carol e Smith Interiors on multiple remodel projects over the years. We just completed building a new home and brought Carol in as we were developing the house plans. Having her on the project so early helped us be mindful of how rooms would be laid out. Her knowledge and experience as an interior decorator was extremely valuable throughout this year-long project. Carol was a key member of our building team. She assisted us with selecting our brick and stone options, trim packages, flooring choices, furniture, paint colors, window treatments, and much more. I have found there is no project to large or small for Carol e Smith Interiors. Even though our personal styles may be different, I never felt pressured into something I did not feel comfortable with. I would highly recommend Carol E. Smith Interiors for your next remodel or as a team member for your new house construction.
