Priscilla Danielle Designs

We worked with Priscilla on our home addition and she was amazing! Our project would not have had the same successful outcome without her. She worked seamlessly with my builder and the subcontractors, adding invaluable insight and expertise to the team. Her creative design ideas and aesthetic can be seen throughout our project -- from paint color and tile choices to structural design elements. And, Priscilla is collaborative and easy to work with. I can't recommend Priscilla highly enough. I would not hesitate to call on her the next time I need design assistance.

Priscilla works magic!!! For those of us who are indecisive, like myself, she has an incredible eye for style and design and became in tune to my style and what I wanted. She created a beautiful space for our home and I am extremely grateful to her. She comes highly recommended!

As we started our house renovations, we hired an architect to do the design, and all the necessary sub contractors to do the work. What we didn't have was a designer to help my wife (aka homeowner) pick and choose all the finishes for our project. So I gave her a budget, and she looked around and discovered Priscilla Danielle Designs. We sat down together and interviewed her, and looked at her past work that she had done. And we picked her. She teamed up with my wife to get everything selected and ordered. All the resources she had were so helpful to us, and she came along as we were finishing the rough framing, and was able to make corrections to our design in the kitchen that made such a big difference. She worked well with our cabinet maker, our painter, our tile installer and our stone installer. While she has great opinion on how things should look, she allowed us to give our thoughts and worked seamlessly. We were so happy and blessed with the final outcome. And we highly recommend her for any special project that you might have. Tom and Cindy Cline

I had the pleasure of working with Priscilla on my house in Morgan Hill for a full remodel in 2018. Priscilla is an amazing professional that is very creative, industrious, and reliable at the same time. She is not satisfied until the customer loves the design, and she puts forth the necessary effort to achieve that goal 110%. I never felt like "just another client" despite her working on several other projects at the same time. On the contrary, working with Priscilla was a lot of fun because she deeply cares about the project/client, listens, has a great sense of humor, and very positive energy in general. Did I mention she is very talented? She was great at combining an aesthetic look for my house while also taking my "man" preferences into account. Her knowledge of aesthetics, material costs and quality, and dealing with contractors made engaging with Priscilla during the design, material shopping, and construction phases fun and highly satisfying. When the remodel faced difficulties, Priscilla turned into the "clutch" of the remodel. I ran into problems with some permits and scope creep of the project that made me nervous to say the least. Priscilla helped me beyond the scope of her work on several occasions to get my project back on track. The remodel of my house came out beautiful and vastly surpassed my expectations. I highly recommend Priscilla to anybody who is looking for a professional that is engaged and knowledgeable for small and large remodels.

Priscilla helped my husband and I decorate our home we just built she did a Great job! I was so happy with her work I decided to have her help me remodel my 3600 square foot hair salon....she NAILED it!! The salon looks AMAZING!! I highly recommend her services, thank you Priscilla

Priscilla was wonderful to work with. I had an idea of what I wanted to do with my bathroom remodel. Priscilla was able to take my basic idea and pull together all the details so it came out beautiful.

Priscilla is the most talented designer that we have ever worked with. But, most importantly, she takes the time to really understand what her client's goals are, and to appreciate her client's individual taste and style. Priscilla doesn't just stop there, though; she stays on the job from the beginning through the very end--working closely with all the contractors and making sure that your job is done precisely to your specifications. We have bought and sold 7 or 8 times over the years, and we have never had a more beautiful or more perfectly functional kitchen--so much so that when we shared our photos on our Facebook page, our friends asked for Priscilla's number so that they could use her for their remodel.

Priscilla has been outstanding to work with. She has a real talent for design, both creative and technical too. She has been so pleasant to work with and has helped me tremendously with design, materials selections and coordinating with my contractor and some of the sub-contractors and vendors too. I am extremely pleased with the outcome of my major remodel and I could not have done it without Priscilla. My only regret is that I am going to miss working with her now that my project is completed. I think I might have to think of another project to work with her on! :-)

If there were more starts, Priscilla would get them... :-) I started working with Priscilla in October of 2013 and have continued working with her up till now (July/2015) and am continuing until we are done (should be soon). Priscilla helped me furnish and decorate a complete home as well as execute multiple built-in cabinet projects and design of various spaces in the house. She is an awesome interior designer! She is extremely thorough, reliable, always on time, and a real pleasure and delight to work with. She brings an experienced designers perspective to the table and together we did a really great job turning my house into a beautifully furnished and decorated home. I would recommend Priscilla to anyone doing some serious interior design work on their home or commercial area. She is great!

We hired Priscilla to help us with the remodel of our kitchen, family room/dining room and powder room addition. She created a masterful design for all these areas in our home. We could not be happier with our experience with her. She is so creative and has so many wonderful ideas. She is just a pleasure to work with. She created the most awesome kitchen for us, more than I could ever have imagined. She listens to your wants and needs, as far as functionality, and gives you amazing results. My kitchen is just amazing. It’s my favorite part of our remodel. I have created so many wonderful meals for my family in there and I have Priscilla to thank for that. She gave us much needed storage space and a wonderful work area for me with the awesome island she designed. She helped us every step of the way from creating several floor plan options for us to choose from as well as going to all the marble, tile, and paint stores to find the perfect combination of colors and materials to make our house so beautiful and elegant. She also helped us find the right furniture and décor to complete the look we were looking for. She has made our house a home. We are enjoying all aspects of our remodel because of her talents. Everyone that comes over to visit is in awe when they see the transformation of before and after our remodel. Thank you Priscilla for making our dreams come true. I highly recommend Priscilla if you are interested in spectacular service and talent. You will not be disappointed.

Priscilla designed and project managed a complete remodel of our kitchen/family room, master bath and guest bath. We were blown away by her creative design, space planning and attention to detail. With her help we have truly transformed our home and our quality of life significantly. We interviewed several designers before hiring Priscilla and I'm glad we did because it is very important to find the right "fit" in a designer. My husband, daughter and I unanimously agreed we would go with PDD. We started working with Priscilla almost one year ago and honestly we would never have made it through this process without her. She absolutely listened to all of our preferences for finishes and design but she was not afraid to tell me that something I was considering seemed "dated" or not in keeping with the style we were going for. I really appreciated that she didn't push a particular style or have any agenda. And when I turned down one of her suggestions that was fine and we moved on - it's about the customer with Priscilla, not the designer. Sometimes we were overwhelmed by the sheer number of decisions we had to make in remodeling four major rooms of the house....she was patient and helpful every step of the way. And when I just gave up (a few times) and told her to "just decide for me" she did and the result was spectacular. She is also a joy to work with, has a great sense-of-humor and an incredible work ethic. I'm a stickler about people being on time to appointments and I emphasized this in all the designer interviews. Priscilla was on time 95% of the time and on the few occasions she was running late she texted or called to let me know when she would arrive. Amazing! She invoices every two weeks which I also really appreciated. She won't make you feel bad about your project budget either -- she is clear about what is worth spending more money on or less money on but she will respect your budgetary concerns. Since both my husband and I work full time we also used Priscilla as a project manager during the construction phase. This was money very well spent because she caught several small mistakes by the construction crew that could have turned into big mistakes. And no matter how much you plan there will always be unexpected changes required and she was on hand with design changes and creative suggestions to solve dilemmas. I cannot recommend Priscilla Danielle Designs higher. I am actually disappointed that most of the rooms of the house are now remodeled and I won't have many more opportunities to work with Priscilla. Photos of all the remodeled rooms will be posted soon after all the punch list details are complete...we love it all and can't wait to share our new spaces with family and friends. Thanks Priscilla!

Priscilla gave us amazing ideas which came to life in front of our eyes. My husband and I had tried to think of many ways to redo our kitchen. Priscilla gave us drawings of ideas we had never even considered or thought possible. She shopped with me choosing everything from flooring, granite and tile to pillows, lamps and décor. After over 6 months of using my new kitchen I can say that there is nothing I'd change about the design.

I had a file full of tear sheets from Architectural Digest of homes that I loved which I shared with Priscilla in our initial consultation. I wanted design which incorporated clean lines, was elegant with a pop of color/ unexpected element. I had seen Priscilla's portfolio on-line and loved her use of colour so I thought it would be a good match to work with her for my home. Priscilla gets your sense of style! On our first trip to San Francisco Design Centre we picked out all the big pieces. She provided different fabric palettes for me to choose from. I landed up getting furniture, drapes, light fixtures, carpet and accessories. I have to say I truly enjoy my home every day. Each piece reflects and expresses my family and me. I also loved working with Priscilla. She is personable, down to earth and genuine. One thing I have to say is resist the temptation to go over budget! Priscilla shows you so many beautiful things that it is hard to resist.

We purchased a vacation home in La Quinta, CA in September. Priscilla worked remotely from pictures to help us pick couches, tables, dining room table, chairs and more. She used pictures and measurements and did a fantastic job helping us choose the larger pieces. She then met us at our home and helped choose paint colors and bedroom furnishings. It's been a great experience! We recently received most of our new furnishings and everything looks even better than we imagined! We plan to have her come and help us with the finishing touches very soon.

We hired Priscilla Danielle Designs to draw plans, assist in material selection, and oversee contruction for our kitchen remodel in October 2011 and again in October 2012 for our bathroom remodel. Both projects were extensive, requiring the rooms to be demoed down to the studs. We appreciated Priscilla's creative ideas, such as using a walnut slab for the kitchen bar which has become our favorite feature. As first-time home owners and renovation rookies, we were thankful for Priscilla's reputable and professionals contacts (we hired the contractor she recommended and were very happy) and her eye for detail (she caught a few mistakes that were easily corrected during construction process that we otherwise would have missed). Not to mention, Priscilla is friendly and is great at building rapport.

Hiring Priscilla was definitely the best decision I made for my new house. I knew immediately upon meeting her that she would be the right person to help me with my home. In the beginning, I explained a lot about myself and the way in which I live: highly social, entertain a lot; I wanted comfort and function; I like unique things, and I LOVE lots of light and color! Priscilla has an amazing knack for finding exactly the right thing to go in a room that matches my tastes and all within my budget. Several weeks into the project, it was time for me to go on vacation. By this time, I had built enough of a relationship with Priscilla that I trusted her completely, and knew she was well aware of my style. So, I handed her the keys and let her "have at it" in the house while I was away. During this time the entire house was painted, most furniture arrived, and she shopped for accents for the house. We literally came home to a fabulous new house and we loved absolutely everything she did! In addition to the paint colors and designs, shopping (furniture, rugs, lighting fixtures, linens, cabinet hardware, home accessories) and placement of all these items, Priscilla designed custom cabinetry and designed the backsplash in the kitchen. The entertainment center looks so good that multiple neighbors (who have the same home layout) want to do the same thing! Additionally, Priscilla had many fantastic suggestions I would have never thought of that make my house truly unique. I love the inside of my home so much, that Priscilla also designed the outdoor living space! I have a VERY small side yard, and she made it feel like a comfy, cosy, outdoor room where I can actually fit 20+ people in this tiny space!

I was referred to Priscilla Danielle Designs for a kitchen remodel and although I was introduced to other design professionals, I was most impressed with Priscilla upon our very first meeting. Our initial consultation with Priscilla included an in-depth discussion about our goals for our new kitchen, our lifestyle and habits, our desire to entertain and what our future plans were for our home. And of course, with every remodel project, (and most importantly) we talked about the budget. Priscilla explained her contract and billing process to us and outlined the details of her design process so we knew exactly what to expect and the type of work she would deliver. I was also happy to hear Priscilla worked on an hourly basis so we had the flexibility later on in the project to continue to utilize her talents when we needed it most (think tile design, granite templating, etc). Next, Priscilla was also able to provide the names of several general contractors and custom cabinet makers for us to interview for the project. Although we own a small construction company and have many contacts in the area, we chose both a general contractor and cabinet maker she referred to us and we couldn’t be happier with the work. I believe Priscilla also goes the extra mile as part of her overall service to act as a “project manager” by following up with the contractors, giving us updates and making sure she was here for critical times in the installation process. It was nice to know Priscilla was always keenly aware of our project and how things were progressing. I believe one of Priscilla’s best talents is her ability to start with your general ideas and develop designs and details that only a thoughtful and perceptive designer would suggest. As an example, my husband is 6’4” so when designing his “bar” area she designed the cabinets 4” taller than the rest of the cabinetry to accommodate his height. In addition, she recommended slightly larger walkways around the kitchen for his comfort (and mine) as well. These are just two examples of the many features Priscilla addressed simply by accounting for our lifestyle and comfort. In retrospect I have discovered that much of my focus on the project was on the aesthetics of the kitchen such as cabinet color, appliances, granite and floors, etc. If I were to attempt this design on my own, or maybe even with a different designer, I don’t know that my kitchen would be nearly as FUNCTIONAL. We are so thankful for Priscilla’s design talents and her ability to foresee the final product. I can honestly say there isn’t a single detail in my kitchen that I would change or would have done differently in design. We encourage anyone considering new construction and design to contact Priscilla. I can also be contacted directly if you would like a personal reference at 408.568.2931. Happy Cooking! Lisa Choate

Priscilla was a fantastic partner for us as we went about designing the interior of our new home. She worked closely with us to understand our style but was also not shy about encouraging us to take risks and move in different directions. We never felt pressured and in the end our home completely reflects our tastes and preferences but in a way we would not have been able to pull off without Priscilla's keen eye, fashion sense, and encouragement.
