Tina Dann-Fenwick Interiors

Tina was wonderful to work with! So good at incorporating all of our feedback, likes, dislikes, and practical needs into finding fabrics, furniture styles, etc. She designed a gorgeous new fireplace for us, along with finding furniture, drapery, and other items that give our home the cheerful, relaxing, yet pulled-together vibe we really wanted. Tina has a great eye for patterns and color, and she also helped us honor the historic architecture of our house while updating things in a fresh, fun way. We appreciate that she also helped us solve myriad practical issues, like how to block light in some places and embrace it in others, how to find couch fabrics our cat wouldn't immediately sink his eager claws into, and finding a comfy way to watch TV as a family. Our redesigned living room is not just beautiful but also practical.

Tina was a wonderful collaborator and did an excellent job translating our eclectic taste from pinterest boards to reality. Our home is unique, comfortable, family friendly and a reflection of our personalities. I would highly recommend Tina to anyone looking for interior design assistance, big or small.

In a word, Tina is fabulous! She has great style and a keen eye for coordinating all types of furnishing, fabrics, rugs/carpets and lighting, whether the look is casual or sophisticated, traditional or modern. Tina seamlessly matches design with client preferences thanks to her ability to really listen to her clients regarding the mood, style and character they seek. She also has numerable connections to a variety of top design shops as well as to skilled tradesmen such as carpenters, painters, tilers, and electricians. I could not imagine undertaking my large scale renovation without her. As I said from the outset, Tina is fabulous and I highly recommend her.

My husband and I moved from an apartment in Chicago to a house in the suburbs and Tina helped to integrate all of our current furniture with new pieces as needed. We repainted every room in the house and she was a huge help in picking colors. My goal was to make the house as cozy and comfortable as possible, and the results are perfect. Most importantly, two of our bedrooms are for our grandchildren and Tina's suggestions and choices were brilliant and so much fun! The boys room incorporates their favorite colors, as does our granddaughter's room. The best part was that Tina worked with our granddaughter to make sure she loved the finished product. And she does!

It has been a great experience to work with Tina. I felt she truly listened to me and understood what I liked and did not like. She transformed parts of my house while incorporating the pieces I did not want to part with. She is also excellent with colors.

Working with Tina was a wonderful experience. She is not afraid of color and pattern, which were essential to the project that we worked on together! Tina is great with furniture scale and style, and she was able to complement the architecture of the space with all of her selections. Her ability to pull everything together was evident in the success of the project!

Over the past several months, Tina has transformed the living spaces on our first floor after I asked her to help us create a home. I am thrilled with the result because she delivered what we asked for—a retreat from the outside world designed in accordance with our personalities. We had a few pieces of furniture, a rug, and a set of curtains that I did not want to part with. Tina incorporated these items into the final design and did a wonderful job of creating a cohesive look throughout our first floor. At first, I was a bit nervous about the process and making the right choices, but Tina took the time to understand our taste and presented beautiful furniture, fabrics, wall coverings, rugs and accessories. She also designed stunning window treatments and cabinets around our fireplace. Tina was responsive and very detail oriented, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Thanks to Tina, we now love to spend time in our new rooms and receive many compliments.

As a carpenter and builder for the past 30 years, I've had the opportunity to work with several interior designers on remodels. Tina is one of the finest. She listens to the customer and delivers a design that not only incorporates the vision and needs of the customer, but works within the confines of already existing room. We recently worked together on a remodeled of a large bath. Tina is a collaborative professional that supported the project from beginning to end. I would recommend Tina to future customers in need of a designer.

I photograph residential home interiors for hundreds of interior designers nationally. Tina has been a client of mine for the past 3 years. She embodies the true definition of what an interior designer is. We've had the discussion before that in any field, only 10% of any professional, can truly bring the necessary and required experience, talent and understanding of their respective field to their clientele. Tina is in this 10%. Her understanding of multiple room styles is second to none. Her portfolio is representative of this. Tina is a true professional bringing exemplary design to her clients. I am always impressed with her work and always look forward to working with her.

Tina positively transformed the way we see our music room through her professional eye and sense of harmonious balance. What started with an idea to decorate just an empty wall, beautifully evolved into an optimum rearrangement of music and living room enhancing color combination and focal points. We couldn't be happier with Tina's advice.

Tina is wonderful to work with because she doesn't try to impose a preconceived idea on a project. She listens to what I want, looks closely at the room in question, and encourages me to share inspiration photos to help her understand the overall look I want to achieve. She is sensitive to my budget and considers practicality as well as beauty. Tina makes the process fun and I hope to work with her again. Photos to come!

I worked with tdf interiors for my first home redesign. I was sick of my home consisting of mismatched furniture, was embarrassed to have guests over, and was frustrated by my lack of storage space. Even when my home was clean, it looked cluttered and dirty. Once I started working from home more, I realized I needed to invest in the help of a professional who could help make my space a comfortable place to work and live. I was referred to Tina by a friend whose home I absolutely love. Like me, she has pets but somehow managed to keep all of her pet stuff from overtaking her living room. She admitted that she had help from a professional interior designer and gave me Tina's email address. Tina worked with me to figure out what my goals were via a detailed questionnaire, what my style is, and helped me figure out what I like and don't like. I sent her a list of ideas and examples and she somehow turned my hodgepodge of ideas into a reality that came together beautifully. There was no way I could have ever gotten my home to the place it is now by myself. Having never used an interior designer before, I had no idea how much a room could be transformed. It's like I moved into a different home. She also made the process extremely easy on me and I felt like I didn't have to invest a ton of time into making this transformation happen- she just took care of all the annoying and time consuming parts for me. Her rates are reasonable and she will work with you to stay within your budget. She was flexible with my needs and I didn't feel like she ever pushed me towards something I didn't want. She primarily works in the Lake Forest/Chicago area, but I live in Virginia and she was able to work remotely with me via phone, email, and FaceTime. So glad my friend referred me to her!
