Colorworks Studio

I have known Barbi and her Colorworks Studio for a long time. Every experience has been wonderful. I just had Barbi do a major renovation of the main floor of my condo. I am extremely happy with the outcome. The professionals she uses are on time and do excellent work. Her office staff is very pleasant to work with. With Barbi coordinating, there is very little gap time as the different vendors come to complete their assignments. I replaced all my kitchen cabinets and appliances. We created some new spaces and redid the lighting in the various rooms. All new furniture and window treatments were chosen. All aspects came together perfectly to my complete satisfaction. I am so happy that I have decided that to bring the upstairs up to date in 2021.

Experienced, talented, creative, resourceful, current, collaborative, calm, professional, warm and personable. These are just some of the many wonderful qualities to describe Barbi and the team at Colorworks Studio. Whether you are working with them on new construction plans, interior design and decorating, or just a single room, their genuine goal is that you will love the results. I've had the privilege of working with Barbi on four different home projects and would whole heartedly recommend her for yours. Her proven experience and attention to detail will take the vision you have for your project and make it a reality. If you need help in shaping that vision, Barbi is the perfect person to guide you in that process. Working with Barbi will give you the confidence to complete the details of your project to your highest satisfaction.

Barbi and her team at Colorworks has been fantastic to work with throughout our renovation process! We presented a general vision to Barbi, and she worked with us to fine tune it. She understood what we wanted, even before we had a clear picture ourselves. Accordingly, Barbi was able to lead us to finishes that are exactly what we wanted, even though we couldn't describe them initially. And, importantly, Barbi is very respectful and conscious of budget. She'll tell you were to splurge and where you can cut back to get the quality and the look you're going for. Barbi's attention to detail...whether it be inspecting the work of the trades people, or finding the perfect accessories...is unsurpassed. She so clearly takes pleasure in making your home beautiful, livable and a reflection of your style/taste. Barbi's team is also super attentive and responsive. Their follow up and follow through is tremendous! They do a great job coordinating the trades and keeping on the vendors to get products on site as needed. Despite some hiccups throughout our job, Barbi and her team smiled and assured us that nothing was a big deal and that they would get "it" taken care of. And, they have kept their word. I unequivocally and enthusiastically recommend Barbi Krass/Colorworks Studio, whether you're building a new home or sprucing up your current home!

Barbi Krass provides comprehensive, creative, problem solving design services in both my Michigan and Florida homes. Her communication skills are an important part of her work. Her dedication to seeing a project to completion to the satisfaction of her client is commendable.

Barbi from Colorworks did an unbelievable job redoing many of the rooms in our home. She has a great eye for color, was able to execute exactly what i envisioned and had unique ideas to make our home gorgeous. I would highly recommend her and her staff. Extremely professional and responsive.

I only gave 4 stars bc I feel that no one is perfect. But Colorworks is close to it. I have worked w Colorworks for a bunch of different projects. Whether it be just decorating or a total gut job, Colorworks has been amazing to work with. Not only is Barbi the best, but the staff, her recommended builders, tradesmen, and other companies just so good to work with. Even when there is a hiccup, Colorworks come to the rescue. Barbi and I have a great working relationship. We have similar taste. And our personalities just jive. There r s few other interior design firms that have been recommended. But I would never switch

I am a general contractor that has worked with Colorworks for the past 7 years. Colorworks is always coming up with new designs that are unique to each client. The clients needs and functionality always come first when coming up with the designs. The Colorworks team always pay special attention to small details which is a must in the construction industry.

Barbi was very easy to work with along with the Colorworks staff. She was very cognizant of our budget and was able to blend my style with my husband's to create a comfortable and functional space. Her attention to detail made our remodel go smoothly and was actually an enjoyable experience.

We always enjoy working with Barbi! She comes to the gallery regularly for the artwork and custom framing needs of her clients, and it is always a joy to help her with her projects. She runs her design business with integrity and honesty, and is one of the most talented designers we have worked with in the area. She has the well-deserved reputation of being highly respected in the Michigan interior design community, and we will always recommend her to others needing her expertise.

We have been a client of Barbi Krass and her Colorworks Studio for over thirty five years. With our first home we had a restrictive budget and could only do it room by room over several years. Barbi worked with us and it was a very positive experience. Our next home Barbi was with us from the beginning. From the time we worked with the design and construction untill we actually moved in Barbi was on top of everything. Barbi and her team create a home that reflects the people who live within its walls not something that is a "just look don"t touch."

Our latest project was a complete "redo" of our upstairs guest bathroom. from the design of cabinets,picking wallpaper and paint, choosing hardware fixtures and mirrors- including the smallest details of hardware placement,a slotted heat vent as part of the lower cabinet and towels and rugs- Barbi was amazing to work with- we knew every measurement would be accurate, every choice would complement each other while creating an original interesting look. the cost was kept within the range we had expected.This was only the latest of many projects we have done with Barbi at Coloworks. we continue to choose Barbi because her work is always fresh and unique- feeding off her client's tastes- always professional and detail oriented. if a problem developes , Barbi is immediately at the job site ready and willing to solve the problem to her clients satisfaction. There are no 'mistakes' with Barbi. She has an engaging confident personality making design projects stress free.

I have done four projects with Colorworks and am in the midsts of a fifth. I appreciate the professional nature of the company and the strong eye towards detail. Barbi and her staff provide us with level and room designs that flow throughout our home. I am very pleased with the work. Colorworks has great ideas and designs that fit within our budget and tastes.
