Design Soul-utionS

It has been a pleasure working with Susan of Design Soul-utions for the renovations of my condo. It feels like the work lasted forever but it was only a couple of months and the people she had working with her were all professional and courteous and did their jobs in the most minimum of time and mess. Thank you, Susan, for assisting me and your good attention to detail in decorating.

Susan is the consummate professional. She knows her industry very well, vets contractors very well, and she has excellent design style and taste. She helped me redecorate a home I recently purchased… it looks much fresher and feels like it truly is “mine” now. One of the keys of working with a designer relates to the ability to identify and have access to all the team members who can get a job done on time, on budget. She’s very good at that and has strong industry relationships. I will continue to work with her and to recommend her.

We had a great experience working with Susan. We found her based on reviews and she lived up to the 5 star reviews. We did a decent size renovation and working with her took all the stress away. All of the contractors she works with are great. She listens to what you want and makes suggestions when needed. We have three young kids and she knew exactly what would be practical for us but still look great. She even worked with me to find deals/discounts on certain items. As far as timing, she knew when to order everything so once the demo started there was minimal to no down time waiting on products. Everyone comments on how quick the renovation was! When decorating, we appreciated that she worked with what we already had and wanted to keep. We get so many compliments on our new space. We will definitely work with Susan again in the future (I already have a few ideas)!

Susan is the best designer and project manager I have ever worked with. She listens, communicates quickly, and is direct with both me as a client and with the folks she has to manage. Susan has managed both small and large projects for me- a full kitchen re-build, a smaller bathroom remodel, and a larger multi-room project. All were managed extremely well and when issues came up, she communicated and managed them. The best part is she knows when to just handle things vs. make me aware / engage with me -- saving me time and energy. I continue to work with Susan on projects and can't wait for the next one!

Susan is really the best to work with. She transformed our home in the best way and is always there with great ideas.

I’ve been working with Susan for over ten years on projects both professional and personal. She understands budget but always uses the greatest taste and style in her transforming my spaces into such exciting places! I love her design solutions!

Working with Susan from Design Soul-utionS was a wonderful experience for our family. From our initial meeting with Susan we knew we made the right decision in working with her. As well as being very easy to communicate with, Susan completely understood our vision for our home renovation and made the entire design and completion process very easy. My husband and I were extremely happy with the rooms that we used her expertise for; to renovate our kitchen and dining room, as well as painting the house throughout and re-tiling our ground floor. We plan to use her again, hopefully, in the near future to help with our living room and home office. I highly recommend her to family and friends because I know her goal is to make her clients satisfied and happy. Susan’s extensive design knowledge and attention to detail is an asset to any homeowner looking to transform their space.

My husband and I hired Susan to remodel our home in a modern farmhouse style. We liked her from the start and knew we were in good hands. As with any big project there were some hiccups along the way but Susan was able to use her skills and expertise to ensure everything was done to our satisfaction. She took the guess work off our hands, which was a huge plus for us. Her contractors are dependable and professional. Susan always answered calls and texts promptly and took time to explain things and listen to our thoughts or concerns. We are happy with the overall result and also gained a friend in the process.

UPDATE: Well, the pandemic hit and like many folks, having a beautiful, comfortable, and functional home became more important than ever. Some of our spaces needed a new design to make them more useful and appealing as live/work spaces, and for others we just wanted a fresh updated look so the whole house would feel cohesive and intentional. Being surrounded by beautiful and comfortable things seemed so much more important once we were spending much of our time at home! I called Susan, and we got to work. She listened to what we wanted and coached us through the selection process of décor, furnishings, and materials. She has a gift for finding just the right piece for a give space—not an easy task with all the pandemic-related supply chain issues. She guided us through the unavoidable delays that everyone experienced in the last few years, and in the end everything was delivered and installed before a major family event. Susan handled all the issues with grace and professionalism. Our home turned out better than we imagined and we could not be more pleased. Even now, many months after the project was completed I still feel a deep satisfaction and joy when I step into our oasis. I cannot recommend Susan enough. She was lovely to do business with, artistically gifted and forever a part of our home.

We had the pleasure of working with Susan on our bathroom remodel. She did a great job on customizing to our style and preferences. She has a great eye for colors, textures and maximizing space. I highly recommend her for any of your home projects!

We hired Design Soul-utionS to remodel our master bathroom and couldn't be more pleased. We had very specific requests and needs and Susan fulfilled them all. She and her team were professional, did an excellent job communicating and provided superb workmanship. Design Soul-utionS is the complete package for any remodel or design work. Susan really listens to your thoughts and translates them into reality. We highly recommend Design Soul-utionS. Nelson Villanueva

My husband & I were looking for a hands-on local designer for two projects and Susan fit the bill! She helped us furnish & decorate my husband's nearby office & renovate a bathroom in our home. Both projects needed to be completed by Thanksgiving & Susan delivered on both. We couldn't be more pleased with the end results of both spaces. They are colorful, modern & reflect our aesthetic & style. Thank you Susan!

Susan redesigned my fireplace as well as adding recessed lighting in my living room and office. She brought over tile samples and coordinated all the work with the contractors. She was a pleasure to work with and listened patiently. She responded promptly to all my questions and concerns. I highly recommend her. My job was a small one and it was handled well. I plan on contacting her again for future projects.

As a young couple moving into our first home we were overwhelmed with all the decisions that needed to be made. We hired Susan to help ease the process and she went above and beyond our expectations. From understanding our budget to being there every step of the way, we cannot say enough about her work! She transformed our house into a home and a place we love to be in everyday. Despite going thru this process in a middle of a pandemic, Susan made it stress-free. She is simply the BEST and we cannot wait to work with her again in the near future.

Susan is simply the best designer I've ever worked with. She transformed my main living areas from a worn-out 1990's look to modern, serene, and beautiful. Susan had really creative ideas to update the color scheme, look and feel of my home and we love it! I look forward to working with her again on other parts of my home.

I hired Design Soul-utionS to design my main living areas…living room, family room dining room and kitchen, for a much needed update. Working with Susan was a pleasure. She was easy to talk to, really listened and respected my taste. Something I looked for when selecting my designer was that the person genuinely cared that my home represent me; Susan delivered. I found her to be very talented, knowledgeable and creative, as well as conscientious of my budget. I trusted her ideas and her ability to pull it all together. She did a fantastic job. I highly recommend Susan at Design Soul-utionS for any design projects in your home. You’ll be very glad you did.

This is the second time we have worked with Susan. She first did our home 13 years ago. We were looking to update our home and what an update we did! It turned into a full home re-design. She understands how we like to live in our house and is very receptive to our visions. Susan is very professional, knowledgeable, creative and just fun to be around, especially on the all day home excursions! It's evident that she genuinely cares about our home, because she works tirelessly to ensure that every detail is tailored and customized to fit our taste. Although she has her own vendors she uses, she has no problem working with any that we wanted to use for a particular job. We had some built in pieces that we were able to refinish to have an updated look. She was able to blend existing furnishings with new items and transform the look. Susan has some great connections in the industry, so we always felt that we were getting very fair prices. If you are looking for a designer that will listen and understand your visions and work within your means, we highly recommend Susan at Design Soul-utions!

We have purchased a home in Parkland in April of 2017, and needed to move in by the first of August. We hired Susan in June, to turn our new home into a piece of paradise... and paradise she created (in less than two months)!!! Susan is a workaholic with amazing vision! She worked very close with us, making my wife and I really happy with her creativity and professionalism! We felt safe throughout the duration of the whole project, knowing that she is taking care of business! The teams and vendors that she works with were great, delivering the highest quality product and services possible. Susan was scheduling deliveries, receiving product and overseeing the contractors' work. We highly recommend Susan! Two words: complete package!!!

Susan did a fantastic job creating my vision into a reality in the overwhelming world of design. I could not have obtained the desired look without her guidance and expertise. My home is now the beautiful open space I always dreamed it could be but needed someone to implement their expert design skills to make it come to life. Time lines and budgets were respected and met at every turn. A true professional in every sense of the word!

Susan is a wonderful creative designer. She immediately understood what my style, vision and budget was for my condo and was able to help me think outside of the box. I met her at a chance encounter while shopping and knew immediately that I wanted to work with her. I could not be happier.

Wow!! what an amazing designer. I turned over our ocean front condo project to Susan and within 21 days she had organized all the design layouts, contractors, located are materials for purchase an aranged for the installation and set up of everything. Susan is an amazing designer and a timely provider who produces what she promises The best investment I ever made. Thank you again Susan. Robert L

Susan was a great help in designing and selecting tiles and other finishes for our complete condo makeover. Very professional, personable and full of ideas. Easily incorporated our ideas as well as offering hers! Nice soft sell, no high pressure. She has a good sense of humor and was fun to work with. Highly recommend her!

Susan is the consummate professional. We hired Susan to help create our new home. She understood our budget, our taste and voila we have the home of our dreams. Her patience is unending. When people come into our home, they all ask - who decorated your home!!! Many thanks to Susan. I recommend her highly.

Our company knows Susan for several years and buys her contemporary and oriental rugs from our firm. She is very professional interior designer and her customers are always pleased with her work. Edward Odabashian

I hired Susan at SR Home Design after our first meeting because I was so impressed with her ability to visualize the possibilities of the redesign, all while keeping within the style constraints of my 1970’s home. Even more impressively, she was also able to blend in some of the original furnishings I wanted to keep. When it was complete, I had exactly what I had hoped for. Susan was honest, professional, punctual and stayed within my budget. I couldn’t be more pleased and would recommend her services to anyone.

Working with Susan is such a pleasure from the selection process through the final installation process.. She is a very talented, creative, professional and caring lady to work with. Takes great care in each and every project we have worked on to ensure all her clients are 100% happy. She goes above and beyond each and every time to meet deadlines, stay within her clients budgets and create a work of art; one that anyone would be proud to display. I have worked with Susan on numerous projects for the last fourteen years and highly recommend her to all my clients.

Susan helped me with 3 bathrooms as well as some some work in our living room and a repainting of the entire interior of our home. She has a good vision of what the outcome should be. You can trust her instincts. She works well with the contractors, staying on top of them until all work is complete.

Pro: Efficient, cost effective, keep her word, use only excellent contractors, have a total vision of the finished work, can adapt herself to the budget available. Con: can be to nice and pleasant ;-)

Working with Susan has been one of the best Professional experiences for our business. She is very creative and professional with all of her designs and it is a pleasure working with her. I highly recommend her for any design and remodeling ideas!
