Gail and her staff at StudioG Home were wonderful to work with. Gail was involved in the building of our home from start to finish. She knew exactly when we needed to meet in order to meet each and every deadline along the way. She not only is an extraordinary designer, she is also very good at the details such as all of the lighting, electrical details and placement. Her design ideas and attention to the smallest details is remarkable. She chose the colors, furniture, and accessories based on our likes and dislikes Our home is absolutely beautiful because of StudioG home.

I was lucky enough to work with Studio G Home - Gail Carlson and her talented team. What an amazing experience. My husband and I built an oceanfront home in Anna Maria, Florida. The house is of substantial size and includes a guest house. Gail masterfully helped navigate the entire design process and here are a few things that make her so special: She listens. Given the substantial nature of the home we built, it would be easy for a designer to assume she was working with an unlimited budget. Both my husband and I come from humble beginnings and we are still very mindful of how we spend money. Gail heard me and worked with the perimeters that I outlined in a kind, thoughtful and creative manner. Additionally, she listened to my desires and helped create an elegant home that still maintains its beach vibe; She interprets. I know what I like and don’t like but it’s not always easy for me to explain it in terms that are easily translated to the end product. Gail masterfully interpreted what I wanted to accomplish and took my vision beyond my dreams; She is kind. She is a fundamentally good person. She treats people with respect whether it was me as the home owner or any of the contractors and subcontractors on the job. It’s very important to me that the professionals that worked on my home enjoyed working on it and took pride in their performance. Gail brings out the best in people and often challenges them with fresh new concepts which can be difficult for some people who are used to doing things a certain way. Gail has such a knack of helping everyone be better. It starts with her kindness and respectfulness towards everyone; She is fiercely talented. Gail is an artist in every sense of the word but she also has incredible organizational skills — rare to find someone who has both. Anyone who comes into my home is truly awestruck by what she helped create. I have built many homes and worked with many designers. Gail and her team are the real deal. I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to work with her and I will remain forever grateful. She helped create a true masterpiece. For anyone who is interested in the project I am discussing, the house is featured in the October issue of Home and Design Magazine as the featured house — Sandcastle.

Knowing her outstanding reputation, I reached out to Gail Carlson of Studio G Home in early 2018 to assist me in decorating and furnishing a new condominium in Sarasota. In the ensuing months, I worked closely with Gail, Robert and the entire Studio G team as they got to know me, my tastes and budget. Gail was then able to provide practical and creative advice that ultimately resulted in a beautiful and comfortable apartment that I enjoy living in and showing to others. On a personal level, Gail and Studio G could not have been more gracious and responsive throughout the entire process. I have no hesitation in recommending Studio G highly to anyone seeking top quality professional decorating advice.

Shopped in retail store on State
Before we renovate the condo I was interested in customer service provided by the decorator. We wanted to purchase an item at the retail store in March. We told that it would be ordered due to scratches on the floor model. We followed up July 5 and were told “Robert the manager thought you should have taken the floor model”. We never received a call and thought we were patiently waiting. The response was “sorry... is there anything else we could help you with?...I was pushing for you” Very poor customer service and we will not move to the next step of engaging them in our project. Little thing will demonstrate the behavior of an organization.

Comment from Studio G Home:
Dear Mr. Saunders, As the manager of the Studio G Home showroom, I regret that we never got to meet in person or speak directly to each other. We do strive to engage with each and every person that visits our showroom with a warm greeting and friendly service. I apologize that you were not directed to me the minute you became dissatisfied on your return visit. I do believe there was some unintentional miscommunication about the tray in question and what you state you were told. Please call and ask directly for me so that I can assist you to resolve any issues with the tray you were interested in. I’m sure we can find a solution. I hope that other readers here will understand by our positive reviews and attempts like this to resolve issues that do arise, that the true measure of a company is if we all remain reasonable, we can work together to find a positive outcome. Kind regards, Robert

I am so happy to review Gail Carlson and Studio G Home as working with them has been such a pleasure. Gail is a uniquely talented designer, and she and her team have created our dream home in our new condo at the Vue. Every morning we wake up and marvel at our fortune to have found Gail as we see beauty all around us. It makes us feel that we don’t want to vacation as much as we have found our little slice of paradise right here in our own home.
Gail is wonderful to work with and exceeded all of our expectations. We are perfectionists and that is not an easy task!
Our sincere thanks,
Ellyn and Glenn Salkind

Studio G in Sarasota is the absolute best at what they do. They did an outstanding job coordinating all of the elements in our home including furniture and accessories. Gail and her team made what would have been a stressful, time-consuming job, had we done it ourselves, into a fun and exciting project. They narrowed decorating choices down for us to several really good ones and provided pictures so we didn’t have to spend our time and energy going all over the place and questioning if what we were selecting would give us the look we were going for. Gail and her team were patient and asked questions that helped pinpoint the exact look we wanted. Then they created an action plan with different options and varying budgets. Every time we look at what has come to fruition in our new home, we get excited all over again.

My husband and I had the honor and the pleasure to work with Gail Carlson Brundage to design our Florida dream home! Our vision was to create a home that was timeless, classic and with a feeling of serenity the moment you walked through the door. We utilized Gail's services from the beginning and she was instrumental in every aspect of the design process. She created the electrical layout, the kitchen design, ceiling details, tile selections, wall colors, fireplace design, flooring selections and furnishings for the entire house And, the result was a masterpiece of artistic design! This home and it's furnishings are one of a kind and we are most grateful for the opportunity to have worked with Gail and her team at Studio G. Gail's attention to detail, expertise and professionalism is beyond compare. We are reminded each day, as we enter our home what a gift is was to work with Gail and Studio G!

We interviewed 5 professionals when we were planning to build our vacation home in Florida, and none were as impressive or helpful as Gail was in the 1st meeting. Her interior design portfolio is very impressive, but it doesn't convey the enormous value that her experience & knowledge of the building process brings. She has been so valuable and appreciated! We feel we have a partner in the job - From reviewing & helping edit the floor plans, to colors, furnishings, site visits & help with EVERY detail (Plus "talking me off the ledge" when selections seem completely overwhelming!), Gail & her crew are simple the best and truly have made building our vacation home a great experience.

Comment from Studio G Home:
Kathy, It's a pleasure working for you on your beautiful new home! it's been a great partnership with you, the cabinet company and your general contractor. It's always remarkable to see the finished project with the furnishings in place when we have the opportunity to work from 'the ground up'. Thank you for the review and the opportunity to create your new home with you!

I worked with Robert Rider from Studio G. I found him to be not only talented and creative, but patient and willing, always, to go the extra mile! His grasp of color coordination/choice is a rare gift. I would highly recommend Robert Rider.

We worked with Christianna Walker at Studio G Home and were very impressed with her taste level, knowledge and creativity. We could not have asked for a more responsive, astute and talented designer. She made the process of pulling all aspects of the project (total condo villa reno) possible and managed details that I would never have even have imagined.

Jenny, thank you for your kind and thoughtful review. It has been a pleasure working with you on your condo renovation. We are excited to see the final touches come together for a practical, creative, and beautiful interior. We wish you and your guests much comfort and happiness in your new home!

Our vacation home and future retirement home was being built in another state and we were not familiar with designers in the area. We started searching the internet in 2014 for someone to help design our 2nd home in Florida. We met with several people but one stood out as being friendly and very informative. We chose Gail Carlson after interviewing several others and hoped for the best. Little did we know at the time that we were absolutely getting the best! Gail's ability to listen to what we were looking for, her knowledge, and her eye for details were exactly what we were looking for. She made our home one of the most beautiful we have ever seen and exactly what we had envisioned. She is hard working, honest, creative, extremely talented, and one of the easiest people we had the pleasure working with on our entire project. Our very high end respected builder who had never used Gail before stated that she was one of the best they had ever worked with. They told us that her attention to detail was better than other interior designers that they had worked with before and they will recommend her to future clients. We had worked with Gail for approximately two years and during that time we found her to be and a complete joy to work with. If you are looking for someone to help you with your home, we highly recommend Gail Carlson Interiors.
