Mary Rubino Interiors, Inc.

Working with Mary was a pleasure and a huge success. Mary is extremely creative with space, color and design and that makes magic happen in the rooms she decorates. I was very happy with the attention to detail and appreciative of her ability to listen to my needs. Our first project started with a simple living room that was an odd shape, Mary was able to help with choosing furniture that was better suited for the space and gave us ample seating. I highly recommend working with Mary for all decorating needs and budgets, when I moved to NYC I had Mary assist in placing the previous bought furniture in the new space, it worked out perfectly. Meanwhile, she also helped with decorating a condo for my college son. Mary helped with the decorating of my bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen areas in my new home in NYC and then again when I moved back to the Chicago area and remodeled a new home. Mary helped me visualize the new space before it was built and together we were able to furnish it from fixtures, to paint, to furniture, to lights. With every move we were able to use the previous purchases and make the spaces work without having to replace it with all new furniture. Colors from paints and repositioning designed by Mary made every project seemed to new and special.

She did an absolute perfect job at making my office feel relaxing, inviting and comfortable both for my staff as well as my clients. She did the project 4 years ago and my clients still are complementing me on the colors, furniture and unique "feel" of the space. Mary was absolutely easy to work with, understood my budget issues as well as my clients' needs. She was spot on deadline and followed up on every detail from delivery, assembly to punch list reconciliation. I really appreciated her sense of style, psychological attunement to how a space should "feel" and her absolute practicality--hard to find these days.

I love working with Mary. She has the ability to mold my personal style into something that looks elegant and sophisticated, but still me. She has helped me design both my house in the city and redo one in the suburbs--which sold in record time especially considering the state of the market. She is great at communicating and keeping me apprised of the status of the project, and has always worked tirelessly (as I sent her back time and again for fabric selections) to find the perfect look. I would (and do) use her again and again.
