Linda Laskin

We just finished a remodel of a family home in North Carolina, so we reached out to Dianne Davant and Associates to help us with the project. We worked with Margaret Handley, who was terrific!! She quickly picked up on our style and taste, made great suggestions and created a design that worked perfectly for our family's lifestyle. We also live out of state, so Margaret had to lead the project remotely. She communicated quickly and efficiently, kept us involved in all of the design decisions, and earned our trust implicitly. From beginning to end the whole process was smooth, professional, and an overall delight. I highly recommend Dianne and her team for anyone seeking a beautiful design from a competent and wonderful design firm.

Pam McKay was a godsend. We renovated a home long-distance and she was wonderful about communicating with me, working within our budget, listening to us, introducing us to reputable subcontractors, and...yes, pushing us a bit out of our comfort zone. We ended up with a GORGEOUS home that's comfortable, much more up-to-date and perfect for us. I feel SO fortunate that Pam was recommended to us and that she took such good care of us and our project.

Margaret Handley is delightful and a real pro. She has helped us from the beginning of our mountain house construction. She listens carefully to get a sense of the client’s style, and uses her skills to create accordingly. Margaret is especially innovative with space design. She helped us create and use space more interestingly, more productively and in ways that enhance the aesthetics. We highly recommend her.

Wow! Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to post a review! We look forward to continuing with your beautiful project!

Anne Findlay Vail

Margaret Handley worked with us on two projects - a mountain house and a city house. Each design was distinctive and lovely. Our big mountain house needed everything: interior and exterior renovation required design support on all levels and Margaret delivered spectacular results. Our 100 year old city house required expert input on furniture and fabrics in several rooms, which Margaret handled beautifully.

I have been working with Margaret Handley on my mountain home remodel. Project has included full remodel, including cabinets, flooring and furniture. Margaret has done a terrific job across all aspects, including floor plan redesign. She's responsive and has worked well with the contractor. She's also well connected in the community to provide additional referrals as needed. I highly recommend working with Margaret and Davant.

We recently purchased a new condo in Boone, NC. As a Christmas gift, my husband told me to hire a decorator. Our primary residence is 2.5 hours away and I can’t run back and forth to decorate. After comparing various decorators in the area, I chose Margaret Handley from Dianne Davant and Associates in Banner Elk, NC. When we had our initial meeting, I described my family, vision for the condo and color preferences. After choosing a few pieces together, Margaret was on her own. Wow! She did not disappoint. My husband was impressed with her attention to detail and our grown sons all said she really gets me. I could not be happier.

Comment from Dianne Davant and Associates:

Purchasing a new property is daunting task on its own let alone the additional stress of trying to properly outfit it. This is where the professionals at Dianne Davant and Associates shine. I had the distinct pleasure of working with Margaret Handley. She is professional, knowledgable, and dedicated to her craft. I will always appreciate the ease in which she made the process of transforming a vision into a reality. She is a pleasure to do business with and I highly recommend her and the company to anyone looking for the best in interior design

Dianne Davant is a long-time friend and colleague of Banner’s Cabinets. We have worked on dozens of projects together over the past 35+ years. She and her crew are inventive, insightful, and creative. The interior spaces that they have designed incorporating our cabinetry have been beautiful, functional, and reflective of the owners’ personalities and personal styles. Dianne and her employees have always been friendly and professional, willing to accommodate project requirements and incorporate every aspect of functionality into the overarching design style. We highly recommend them for your interior design needs!

We enjoyed an exceptional relationship with our talented and compassionate designer, Pam McKay. Pam graciously worked with much of our existing furniture and art work and truly created a home for our family that we adore. Pam was able to create our home in a matter of a couple of months and we thoroughly appreciate every moment of commitment and creativity that she has but into this project. Our family wants to give a huge thank you to Peter Brown and to Gary Fox who have provided a remarkable service to us. Peter and Gary did the pick up, the delivery and much of the placement of our furnishings. Their happy smiles and can do attitudes made our move so much fun. They could not have been more helpful and their energy, expertise and reliability are absolutely worth noting.

We are very happy with the design work at our NC home. Dianne Davant and Pam McKay were our team. They are very talented, very professional, with excellent accounting. We remodeled our NC condo, redesigned bathrooms and the kitchen. We removed walls to open up the space. They coordinated with the builder through out the entire project. We love the new colors and furniture. We feel we hired the very best. Love the results. SM
