Truss Interiors & Renovations

I worked with Julee and Aubrey when remodeling my house, and I am thrilled with the results. I don't have much of an aesthetic streak and find design to be nerve-wracking, but they were able to guide me through everything from finding inspiration to the final reveal. I really appreciated their presentation of two different design packages, it allowed me to take things in and see how I felt rather than making dozens of choices with no idea whether they would fit together. The final result is like living in a catalog, only everything is to my tastes. It truly feels like home.

Julee and her team made our dream a reality. Her detailed designs and plans helped guide the whole remodel/rebuild to completion. Although we live many states away she helped us remodel a home in Winter Park. Her vision and design were always on point with what we envisioned and we cannot recommend her services highly enough. One very big standout was her responsiveness to myself and to the entire build team. She was professional and helpful in every aspect of the project. Again, we could not have done this without her (and her team).

Truss Interiors is a brilliant design firm that saw my vision and turned it into a gorgeous home. I did an entire condo renovation and was presented with two options, the first one absolutely clinching it. And although we ran into an unexpected constraint before construction, Truss Interiors put in the extra effort to efficiently and beautifully handle a kitchen re-design. Their work seamlessly joined with that of the contractor they recommended, allowing the project to come in only one week past the deadline. Amazing given all the delays related to COVID! I highly recommend Julee’s design vision, her use of color and texture, and how each room is its own entity while also presenting as a cohesive mood and feel as well as a visual delight. I’ve gotten rave reviews from friends and family alike!

Julee and the team at Truss Interiors know interior design! Having purchased a home that has a very open floor plan, we were looking for a nice, cohesive design flow throughout. We are so pleased with the furniture selections and various layers of texture pulled together, room by room, to give our home an elegant yet comfortable feel. We could have never achieved the final product on our own. Julee and her team had the vision and brought that vision to life. On the administrative side of the project, Truss Interiors worked diligently to keep us updated on our furniture order and installation days every step of the way. Julee and her team were also able to bring in the right partners throughout the project to get various parts of the project installed (lighting, window treatments, wall coverings, etc.) Thank you to the team at Truss Interiors!

Julee and her team did an outstanding job with a home renovation we completed in 2021. Julee's design sense, unique style, and commitment to detail is unmatched in this industry and we highly recommend using Truss Interiors. In addition to completely renovating multiple rooms in our house (living room, bathroom, kitchen), Julee made it a point to use existing items in our house that we were attached to. Julee and her team made it a point to understand our style, and to work alongside of our existing furnishings. Overall, if you can book Truss Interiors for a remodel, you won't be disappointed!

My husband and I purchased a home earlier this year and worked with Julee on the design features of our main floor renovation. We were moving from out of state and needed to find someone who we trusted to carry out our vision prior to us moving in, and Julee was the perfect designer for that. We had a tight timeline and she did an amazing job coordinating with us and the contractor to keep our renovation on time and within budget. Julee got a sense of our style very quickly and presented us with curated options to choose from that also lent themselves to flexibility for some of the changes we made mid-renovation. We loved working with Julee and are so happy with the results of our home renovation. We would recommend her to anyone and look forward to working with her again when we're ready for future home renovations!

With unequivocal thanks, we can truly say we love our “new” house. We hired Julee initially to update and rework our difficult builder grade kitchen and dated family room – we ended up with a redone first floor that finally works from the front door to kitchen. Julee took ideas, personal likes/dislikes, artwork and use into consideration and the result is a gorgeous space that is comfortable, easy to cook in and great to hang out in. We wanted to take our cookie cutter floor plan and make it better and now it is clean, classic and personalized without being trendy. Her contractors and their subs were easy to work with and meticulous in their attention to detail.

We worked with Julee at Truss Interiors on our recent remodel. We started out only wanting to knock down a wall and create a giant kitchen. We ended up refreshing the whole house and redecorating our main bedroom, in addition to our major kitchen project. Julee’s design ideas are phenomenal!! I showed her a bunch of random pins on my kitchen board, and she came up with the most beautiful interpretation of all of the elements that I would not have been able to put together myself. We did this whole project throughout the pandemic, and even though the world was completely turned upside down, Julee’s calm demeanor and patient approach to all the hiccups was much needed, and very much appreciated. We *will* be working with her again when we do our addition, and when we update our bathroom. We can’t wait to see what ideas she has for the next phase of updating our forever home! I can’t recommend Truss Interiors enough.

Julee and her team transformed our home beyond what we could have ever imagined on our own. She has incredible vision and talent for adding those small details that take a space to the next level. We were impressed with how well she designed a style that we couldn’t have articulated ourselves but matched us perfectly. We had a great dialog during the design process with Julee. She always presented options, listened to our likes and dislikes to really understand what we wanted. She also pushed us on a few things that we were initially weary on. She’s flexible on many of the design elements but we appreciated that she held her ground on a few key things. Of course, in the end when once her vision came to life, we were so grateful she pushed us out of comfort zone. Julee is also a very talented project manager. She kept our project on time even during some difficult circumstances related to Covid. All of her contractors were a pleasure to work with, very professional with incredible craftsmanship. Julee was quick to take care of any issues that came up, without us ever having to be involved. She made the entire project painless, efficient, and hugely successful. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by a home remodel and want help from start to finish, Julee is your woman!

Julee Jordening-Wray of Truss Interiors completed a renovation of our unoccupied condominium in March 2020 to create a more contemporary look for our unit. The renovation entailed repair work, re-painting, re-carpeting, replacing fixtures and installation of new lighting throughout. Her design and color scheme lightened up the entire space and accentuated the soaring windows and 20 foot ceilings overlooking the city of Denver. Despite the ongoing pandemic, she was able to coordinate all the workmen and delivered the remodeling project on time and on budget. Her knowledge and expertise were very apparent in choosing professional workers. She also communicated with us in a timely manner throughout the entire process, and carefully followed all the rules and guidelines required of the high-rise building. We highly recommend Julee Gardening-Wray as a designer and remodeling manager.

Julee at Truss Interiors transformed my poorly planned kitchen space into this amazing, energized heart of my house. I knew my kitchen and dining space had great potential but I couldn’t see beyond just updating the same space and footprint. I was overwhelmed by the idea of selecting subcontractors, products and finishes, and I didn’t have the energy or bandwidth to start a project that would still be undone in less capable hands (like mine). As soon as Julee suggested her initial thoughts - a new layout that combined the kitchen and dining space - I was blown away. Visionary! She was thorough in all the big and little details of the design, production selection and delivery, and project management. The compliments that I receive now echo many of her reasons behind her product selections. She really can envision a space down to the nails! While the design was solid and innovative, the construction team that Julee brought to work on our project - Woods Remodeling – executed flawlessly and made her vision a reality. This was a project that involved removing walls and doors, plumbing, HVAC, and they were detail-oriented and exacting. The quality of work and professionalism of the team was exceptional. It feels ironic to say that the whole re-model became a non-event - everyone showed up on time, every day. Product arrived on schedule. The project started and finished on time, with no unexpected surprises and nothing left undone. The end result (design through execution) exceeded all expectations. Truss Interiors and Woods Remodeling have transformed my kitchen into a more functional, beautiful space in which I truly enjoy –thank you!

We were so fortunate to find Julee when we decided to renovate our master bathroom. We weren’t sure what we wanted, but we wanted the bathroom to feel modern yet traditional. We wanted it to be our sanctuary at the end of a busy day. Julee designed a bathroom that exceeded our expectations and we are so in love with it. She’s a joy to work with, stays on top of every detail and made the whole remodel process painless. We had a medical situation with a family member who was hospitalized during the remodel period, and Julee went out of her way to be there at our home for workers or installations when someone needed to be and I couldn’t. She truly cares about her clients on a personal level. We have a new bathroom that is beautiful, modern and it fits seamlessly into our style of home. She is a very talented designer and a lovely person, too.

Julee at Truss Interiors transformed our dull, unfinished living area into a beautiful and functional space for our family to enjoy for years to come. She has an incredible ability to conceptualize a space’s potential and help bring it to life! We were amazed by her vision which included an entirely new layout that completely changed the way that we use our main floor; we now have a spacious dining area for indoor/outdoor living, a gorgeous sitting/reading area in front of a refaced and updated fireplace, and a perfect play space for our young toddler. She even managed to fit in a new music area, all while still making the whole space seem larger and more open than before. We NEVER could have come up with these changes on our own, much less decorated the space with a variety of vintage accessories, gorgeous lighting, and carefully-selected furniture and art. Julee took the time during our initial consultation to really listen to us and understand our goals for the renovation. She has transformed our home to create a more relaxing, functional, and BEAUTIFUL space that we look forward to coming home to each day. We cannot recommend Julee and her team at Truss Interiors highly enough, and hope to work with her again soon on other projects.

I found when I tried to refresh a room by myself, it always felt incomplete. I used Julee a couple years ago to help with my bedroom and sunroom. So when it was time to take on the living room and dining room, I didn't hesitate to call Julee again. She is the utmost professional and has a great eye for design. It is so nice to have a fresh set of eyes to look at the space that I look at everyday. Julee is very talented, easy to work with and surrounds herself with a great team and quality suppliers. I put a lot of trust in Julee. There were many times I didn't think we really needed all the items she had selected but in the end, it is the attention to details and the layering of materials and textures that make the rooms so fabulous. She pushed me out of my comfort zone, but stayed flexible to my wishes. I highly recommend Julee and her team.

Julie and her team redesigned and remodeled the entire first floor of our house, including family room, kitchen, laundry room, and living room/dining room, and we could not be more pleased with the results. The process she used for space planning and interior design was very much guided by our tastes and preferences. As a result, the end product is 100 percent aligned with our tastes, but far more ‘complete’ and ‘polished’ than we could have achieved alone. Our house feels more like “home” today than when we started. We could not have been happier with the construction team that Julie brought to work on our project - Woods Remodeling. They were trustworthy, detail-oriented, kept us appraised of the job status all through the process, and were thorough in their explanations of unexpected changes and additions to the original scope of work. They even played with our young children and dog periodically We will be remodeling the other parts of our home in the coming years and will definitely use Truss Interiors when we begin this work.

Julee designed a total renovation on our home. She is very talented and capable! She listened to us and was able to replicate our tastes into her design. This was a big project that required Julee to be attentive to the many behind the scene details. Julee, thank you for a job well done.

Julee helped us to more effectively use our space on our first floor. This was quite the project that involved removing walls, moving piping/HVAC, moving a fireplace and moving a bathroom. We love the new layout and how updated our house looks. We always found it hard to make our style flow throughout the house and all look good together. Julee has a great eye and really helps with pulling all of your ideas together. Our favorite part is that our home is now both beautiful and functional!

We moved into a home built in the 90's. It was underpriced (thanks to the aging decor) and on a great lot, but there was a lot of work to do to bring it up to our standards. The idea of researching vendors, contractors and picking out finishes became an overwhelming reality soon after moving in. I felt paralyzed and stuck. I knew I needed help and reached out to Julee and her team. She came in to my home and immediately took over and I never lifted a finger again. My efforts amounted to oohing and aahing over swatches and samples with a simple yes or no. That's it. We completely gutted most of our first floor, moved walls, plumbing and even replaced a support beam. No small task. Everything was done to the highest standards and now that it is complete, it is nothing short of amazing. My once dated house with "orange" stained wood and a huge wet bar (hard to believe these were ever cool) looks like something out of a magazine or a high end model home. I love being in it and I can't wait for phase 2. If my master bedroom and bath turn out as well, I don't think I'll ever leave home again. Do yourself a favor and skip the headaches... just call Julee.

Wow! Julee is amazingly talented! I loved that Julee took the time to get to know us so she could pick the perfect design for our family. When I walked in my house, I not only felt speechless but perfectly at home. Thanks Julee!

Thank you to Julee and her team for exceeding our expectations. It was a bit nerve racking to gut our kitchen, living room, and dining area down to the joists, even removing walls, but Julee made the experience easy and enjoyable. Julee has a strong eye for design, but always listened to our likes and dislikes. She helped us understand our own style; sometimes having to tactfully steer us in the right direction. Julee helped us to make budget friendly choices without cutting any corners or sacrificing design or function. With very little time on our hands to do a remodel, Julee planned and oversaw our remodel from start to finish. She is detail oriented, organized, responsive, and works very well with her contractor. If there was an issue (there were few), she promptly corrected it. We absolutely love our new space; it’s beautiful and functional! So much more than we could have imagined!

Julee was introduced to me as the designer chosen by HGTV for a House Hunters Renovation program we were a part of. She was extensively interviewed by HGTV to design our kitchen and dining room space. We were so impressed by her design and enjoyed working with her, that we hired her to help with the rest of the house. I have never worked with a designer before. I can say confidently now that this house renovation would not have been the same without her. She saved us so much time in making decisions. She also brought unique design choices that made our house something unique and special. A total house renovation is not exactly fun, but she took out a lot of the stress and indecision. Julee sands out to me in her professionalism, her reputation among the building community, and her skilled design ability.

I consulted with Julee on the walkthrough of my new townhome in Lohi. She was incredibly eagle-eyed on changes that needed to be made, creating a punch list in addition to the punch list the builder made. This helped me ensure that everything was accounted for. Thank you for everything, Julee!

I have worked with Julee at Truss Interiors photographing many of her interior design and renovation projects. I am always very impressed with the spaces she designs. They are always so unique with such pleasing color combinations. The way she brings all the rooms together while still keeping her client's personal tastes and needs in mind is really amazing. And to top it off she is very nice and lovely to work with! I would highly recommend her for any interior design or renovation work.

Julee was very easy to work with and turned my house into my new favorite place. Julee designed my great room, kitchen, office, and bedroom. She did a great job of finding my style and creating a home that fits me better than I could have imagined. I am glad I trusted Julee to help me with my house and would highly recommend her.

Julee took a very vague idea of how we envisioned our home and created a space that exceeded our expectations. From the moment we bought our house in Denver we wanted to be able to update the kitchen and bathroom while still preserving the history we felt in our older (1920's) home. She succeeded in giving us a retro feeling home that is now much more functional. She even helped us to include some of our family history by framing some of our old family photos for display. We are amazed at the little touches that she added that really give our home a polished look such as the crystal drawer pulls that she added to the built in cupboards in our hallway. Also, the use of color in the accents she picked out for us is sensational and very eye catching. We have gotten so many complements on the tongue and groove ceiling that she picked out for our kitchen that we lost count. We would never have been able to finish our remodel without her hard work and dedication. She is extremely organized and has a great eye for detail. As a homeowner with no remodel experience, it was so helpful to have someone there to help us through the entire process and hold our hands the whole way. She truly puts her heart into her work and it shows. We would recommend her any day of the week. Team Julee all the way!

I worked with the Lead Designer, Julee at Truss Interiors and am completely happy with my choice. After deciding to build a new home, I was in over my head. I reached out to Julee to help Manage the entire project - from contracts to vendors - she managed everything and allowed me to stay hands off in the process. I enjoyed her Project Management for the new home build so well I kept Julee on to design the bathrooms (2.5) and larger kitchen. Julee was well prepared with design options and made it easy to make selections of cabinets, flooring, materials, etc. I knew she was being honest and fair with the prices and kept me informed about our budget and timeline throughout. Could not be happier with Truss Interiors & Renovations work and professionalism. Highly recommend Julee and the team for anyone building a home or just needing interior design work!
