Melissa Pla

While living on the West Coast, we embarked on a total renovation of a three bedroom/three bathroom pre-war apartment in Manhattan. We soon found ourselves completely in over our heads due to contractor issues, building requirements, permit , electrical, plumbing issues, to name but a few. Heard about Urban RED Design and after meeting with Barbara Kaufman, decided to hire her as our architect/designer and overall project manager. The project began to move forward in a very professional way and our stress level ceased to exist! We now have (what I think ) is the most beautiful apartment I have ever seen, and I can honestly attribute that to Barbara Kaufman/President of Urban RED (real estate +design). I highly recommend her for your next project, big or small.

I worked with Urban Red's fearless leader for a number of years and can say, Barbara Kaufman's design aesthetic, client service, creativity and attention to detail goes above and beyond. She will not only design a beautiful product but will create a wonderful experience for her clients from beginning to end. We worked on numerous projects together with varying levels of budget and complexity and no matter what the context, Barbara is an expert at determining where/how to apply your design budget to give you the end result you are looking for while also anticipating the ins/outs of the construction process and planning in advance for the hiccups that can occur in this process. Excellent design aesthetic + excellent problem solving = excellent project results. You can't be in better hands.

An exceptionally talented architect and designer, Ms. Kaufman and her firm Urban Red are known in the industry for their professionalism, creativity and innate ability to mold client requirements into beautiful, unique and functional design. If you are considering a home renovation project, I strongly encourage you to schedule an appointment with Urban Red. I'm very confident you'll be as thrilled and impressed with the results as her current and past clients have been. P. K. Alexander

Renovation of my office and gut- renovation of my new home In manhattan, NYC. I hired Barbara to do my home renovation because she has great taste! Barbara designed the renovation project and helped me to choose everything for the home renovation. She is extremely professional, creative with her designs and ideas, and extremely accessible and easy to work with. She is a fantastic person with great talent and elegant and sophisticated taste. I highly recommend her for your renovation project.

We hired this company to help us move from a six bedroom, 3500 sq.f. home we had lived in for 30 years into a two bedroom, 1100 sq. f. apartment, that Urban RED found for us. Barbara Kaufman totally understood what we needed as well as our aesthetic sensibilities. Urban RED did a brilliant job with the interior design of the apartment, including what furniture and accessories to take with us, how to reconfigure pieces to fit the apartment, and how to optimize the new space. In addition, Barbara has an incredible network of craftsmen, including amazing artists who also do art installation. She also was extremely helpful in helping us find new pieces for the new space. In sum, her sense of design is fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and have continued to do so over the past nine months.

Barbara's excellent taste and years of experience in interior design/real estate made her a complete joy to work with on projects big and small. Gut-renovations, apartment reconfigurations, green design...I worked with her on many projects and was always impressed with her industry knowledge and follow through. She is budget conscious, efficient, and professional. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
