So Chic Home Design & Staging, llc

Hope did an amazing job with our renovation and redesign project. We wanted to update and improve without completely refurnishing, and we were thrilled with the results. I didn't want a design that looked like it came straight from a catalogue. Hope was able to blend modern touches into our historic home and the result is the beautiful, eclectic, colorful look we were hoping for. She has a great eye and great ideas I would never have come up with on my own or from just looking at websites. I found Hope through her own social media searching for a designer in Indianapolis and working with her surpassed my expectations. She is focused, detailed, and provided information for decisions as we went along, and she stepped in to assist as little or as much as I needed. I would highly recommend her for projects ranging from a single room to a full home redesign, and would absolute recommend her to stage any home for sale.

I found Hope on Houzz after reading reviews and looking at photos of her prior work. We had just purchased a new home and wanted make it our own so we decided we would buy all new furniture for the common areas. We also painted the entire house and remodeled the master bathroom, and added onto the basement bar. I am a very indecisive person so trying to remodel, furnish, and decorate an entire house would have taken me forever! In fact, I don’t know if I would have even gotten it done! I spoke with Hope about what I was looking for and told her what my style was.. With that she was able to help me make decisions on paint colors, furniture selections, and decor. She kept me focused and didn’t overload me with too many options, while also taking into consideration any feedback I gave to make any adjustments where necessary. Hope was very professional yet down to earth, she was very quick to respond when I contacted her, and she went above and beyond to make sure that I was satisfied with the outcome. I have recommended Hope to others that I know and I have even worked with her a second time. I would definitely hire her again for any future remodeling or decorating needs.

Faith, Hope and Love...and the greatest of these is HOPE! Hope did a PHENOMENAL job with our living room. Both my wife and I were blown away with the finished product. You could tell that she truly understood US, and it was evidently clear we could not have done this without her! She was able to stay within our budget, and she created a beautiful space for our family to spend time together. We will definitely be recommending her to our friends, and we look so forward to our next project with Hope! THANK YOU!!!!

Hope was wonderful to work with. My organization hired Hope to assist with color schemes and home staging for a newly renovated home we were listing for sale. Hope did an amazing job of selecting the furnishings and working with us on what best fit the home as well as our budget. Hope handled every bit of the staging and we had an offer within days of listing! I would definitely recommend Hope to others and can't wait to engage her for future projects!!

Hope is amazing! My husband and I moved into our Fishers home when I was 6 months pregnant and we never really had time to decorate. Our house is kind of dark and I wanted to lighten it up and have a more modern & chic design. Hope came in and worked her magic. She gave our living room, eating kitchen area, dining room and my home office a huge facelift! She checked in with us often to make sure we were happy and took the time to get to know my husband and I, in order to decorate according to our taste, but also to challenge us to take some risks! I would highly recommend her!

I hired Hope to help with decorating my new home. She worked on my bedrooms, living and dining areas. I had been through a divorce and moved from a much larger traditional home. I wanted a space that was more transitional, warm, cozy and inviting. I was drawn to her after reading the reviews. She also had said something on her website about not having to follow strict rules when decorating. We did this over several months because of her schedule and mine. I was uncertain what to expect when we scheduled our decorating/install day. I was thrilled with the final result. I really feel my home reflects me. I love it. I will hire her again when I do my sunroom and loft.

Hope is fantastic to work with and extremely flexible. She helped us to reimagine our dining room and family room. She utilized many of our existing favorite items, as well introduced companion pieces that brought the rooms together flawlessly. At the conclusion of each project, I was stopped at the door and asked to close my eyes before entering the house. I am not a person given to platitudes or false praise. I was absolutely STUNNED by the amazing transformation of our home. Hope is amazing and we are grateful to her for being able to "read" us, select a color palette, style and furnishings that reflect who we are. Hope, YOU ARE AWESOME!!!

I hired So Chic Home Design and Staging for Interior decorating and personal home decor shopping. Hope did an AMAZING job transforming my living room, family room, and dining room! She helped me figure out my design style and matched it perfectly! She was very patient with me(I’m very indecisive) and she was always available to answer any questions. I plan to hire So Chic for future interior design projects.

My spouse and I hired Hope Pace of So Chic Design and Staging, as we were looking for an interior designer to help us furnish three main living areas in a home we had just purchased. Our budget was modest (somewhere around $6K). Notwithstanding, she was able to transform these living spaces for us. In obtaining her services, we believe that we saved ourselves money in the long run by avoiding furnishings and decor that we’d later come to regret. We especially loved how she incorporated some of our existing furnishings and artwork into the design while also finding one of a kind pieces for us in secondhand and consignment shops. Hope is delightful to work with. She is accessible by email and text, and will involve you in bigger design decisions (in our case, such purchases as the dining room chairs and table). We would hire her again in a heartbeat. This experience has been worth every penny.

Where to begin? Our goal was to use some of our family antiques, but to add new pieces to modernize 3 rooms- 2 living areas and the dining room. Hope really listened and we worked closely together to find just the right pieces. She pulled art and family photos together to create truly personal gallery walls. Everyone in the family is in awe. We can’t think of anything we’d change. LOVE it. I highly recommend working with Hope!!

I hired Hope to help me select exterior paint colors. My roof is an orangey-brown color and I was really struggling to figure out what would look best. Hope came over to assess the exterior and also took a look at my interior decorating style to get a sense of what I like. A week or so later, she presented me with multiple color schemes to choose from - all of which fit with my style and vision. Absolutely a great value for the cost!

Hope did such an amazing job with our home we asked her to come on board with our new office build out. She knocked it out of the park! Saw our vision and helped keep us on track and over delivered within budget. When we brought items up that wouldn't have perfectly matched she let us know and had recommendations. She saw our vision for the metal/mesh backdrop for our front desk and commissioned someone to bring it to life -> PERFECT execution of a loose idea. Hope helped coordinate custom build work with the on sight manager and made certain things were delivered on time. When furniture arrived she helped unpack and place everything. For the final staging she came in on a Saturday/Sunday and did a big reveal for us Sunday evening. Blew our mind!
