It has been a great pleasure to work with David Kaplan on several projects in our NYC apartment, where the challenges included creating a floor plan that maximizes multiple functions in the living space, design of customized furniture and locating other furniture and fabrics that beautifully blended in with our personal tastes and lifestyle. David is currently helping us with the conversion of a home office to a guest bedroom, and a remodel of the master bath. He's a great source of design ideas and resources and David is always attentive to every detail of a project. Just a real pleasure to work with! .

David Kaplan is as superior a human being as he is a designer. David worked with my daughter / business partner on multiple residences and we've recommended David with confidence to our real estate customers. David grasps space quickly and he managed to turn her two bedroom into a three bedroom plus a children's playroom. AMAZING! I could not more highly recommend David for small, medium or large jobs. He is also a pleasure to work with. You won't be disappointed. Elaine Clayman Brown Harris Stevens Residential RE

I have known David as a colleague for many years. He facilitates a meeting of a group of peers once a month and is someone we have all come to count and rely on tremendously. David is not only an amazing designer but also a reliable individual who goes out of his way to volunteer in his community and contribute. He is a true gentleman.

I worked with David Kaplan first on my apartment in Manhattan and loved the result so much I imported him to Atlanta to design my town house there. The Atlanta job included total remodel of the kitchen, master bathroom and the guest bathroom as well as furnishing the town house. I love my house and loved working with David. For both my apartment and townhouse David was able to create the feel and look that i wanted. David also was very respectful that i was working on a budget and was great about staying on budget. I wholeheartedly recommend David. Not only is he very creative, he is very enjoyable to work with and very responsive.

My husband and I asked David Kaplan to help us finish decorating our recently-remodeled apartment, including the selection of a love seat and other seating, end tables, and area rugs. He has worked patiently and efficiently, taking us to showrooms to see samples, as well as bringing us many fabric samples to view at home. He also has willingly worked within our budget. As my husband and I do not usually agree on decor, David has done amazingly well finding furnishings we both like. While we are not yet done with the project, David has helped us move it along, and peace has reigned!

My husband & I used David's talant & expertise for our Fort Lauderdale Florida condo renovation & are currently working with him on our Manhattan coop renovation. We originally contracted with him after seeing some of his completed projects & comparing his quote with several other designers. We liked his design ideas for our architectural changes, kitchen/bath design, and furniture/ art purchases, but the reason we hired him for our second renovation is his ability to listen to our requests & incorporate our ideas into his designs. We are also impressed that he can design each project in different styles. Our Florida apartment being very modern while our NYC apartment will be more traditional/transitional. One very important point which should be addressed when choosing a designer is how responsive he is. David has always answered our concerns & has interacted with our contractor & outside vendors effectively & in a timely manner. how responsive the person is. David has always responded to our. questions & dealt with outside vendors & our contractor in a timely & effective manner.

I have been using the design services of David Kaplan in New York since 2000. In addition to his calm and pleasing personality, David has a very keen eye for putting elements together in a way that reflects the cluent's needs. What is particularly impressive and important for me is his seamless management of a project from beginning through end, including the finer details and touches. I have lived in three apartments and each one was beautifully designed by David.
