Function First Design, LLC

Betsy was an absolute pleasure to work with. She spent the time to fully understand what we were looking for, our aesthetic and our sense of style. Her initial designs were spot on and we spent the bulk of our time tweaking it to the needs of our contractor. Betsy was always available to address our contractors needs and made timely adjustments to the plan based on unforeseen findings once we got started with the demo. The end product was a basically a brand new space that was a 100% more functional and much more contemporary. We would work with Betsy again without any hesitation and highly recommend her services.

Betsy has helped me with numerous design projects including providing detailed design plans for a kitchen redesign. Betsy was extremely knowledgeable and was aware of many small details that could have tripped us up if it wasn't for her depth of experience. At the end of the day, a major redesign can be a stressful experience as there are a ton of decisions to be made. Betsy did a great job of narrowing down the options and providing the pros and cons of each.

Betsy was initially referred to us by my wife's family. We saw the final result of some of her kitchen designs and loved them, so hiring her was a no brainer. Betsy was super easy to work with, and so thoughtful and creative with her design for our lake house renovation. We had a lot of fun with it.

The quality of their craftmanship and attention to details were truly impressive. We have gotten positive comments from friends and family members who have visited our home after every project.

Betsy, designed our dream kitchen, master bath, guest bath and powder room, she also designed several build-outs around the house, such as entryway storage build-out, TV wall panel, sliding door panels. She listed to our functional requirements and ideas, style and preferences, and worked on perfecting each project until we were 100% satisfied. We absolutely love all the designs she put together and she helped select and recommend vendors, she was always prompt with her replies and gave us multiple options when in doubt. I highly recommend working with Betsy! She's amazing!

Betsy Miller designed my kitchen and living area and it turned out fantastic! We had an early 90s style house with a drop ceiling, tile countertops and very limited space. We went through 3 different designs and renditions, and settled on one we were able to give to our contractor to put into execution. I could not be happier! My kitchen is so much larger and more functional now, and the way we refaced our fireplace really gave the living room a more updated modern look. We chose quartz in the kitchen and love the look of the stone. The kitchen is so enjoyable to be in we find ourselves cooking and entertaining more. I would 10/10 recommend Betsy Miller to do your design work on your remodel and think her drawings and schematics really helped our contractor execute the project in a timely and thorough manner.

Betsy is so talented and wonderful to work with. Not only is she super knowledgeable when it comes to design, but she’s very patient and responsive. I’ve worked with her 100% remotely which has always gone smoothly. I have hired her for multiple projects now, and look forward to continuing to work with her in the future!

I would give Betsy 10 stars if it was an option, she is that great of a designer and person! Let me start by saying I have an older house (1969) that was flipped but just wasn’t functional. There is very little storage, and even though a small house, there was lots of unused space and I just couldn’t wrap my head around how to make this house better. I found Betsy just from a simple google search, I loved the pictures of her recent projects, so I contacted her. She responded quickly and I told her a little about what I wanted and she has a way of understanding and then taking your ideas and making them 1000x’s better. She is very patient and understanding, especially when my budget prevented some of the design (and she was quick to provide a great alternative). The best part was when I would send her some crazy idea, she was supportive and also great about giving me the pros and cons. Some of my ideas stayed and some didn’t, and I love the results. She helped redesign my awkward living room and kitchen layout, and gave me an amazing master bedroom/bath with a walk in closet, which seems impossible in a 4 bedroom house that is only 1500 sq ft. I love that her designs are bold (although they don’t have to be), and I am so happy that I didn’t end up with a gray and white kitchen and bathroom (which I love and would have just defaulted to) but I love the boldness of my remodel- I still think its classy, just a little more “fun”. Betsy was also great about helping to source venders and gave me a spreadsheet of the exact items to buy since I bought the items and my contractor installed everything. Her designs are meticulous, she gives exact measurements for everything including locations of the lights and electrical outlets. Most of out communication was done over the phone or email, so she can design for any location, I know she does a lot of remote work too (I am in Las Vegas). She excels at all designs but what I really appreciated was her eye for beautiful and functional design. I don’t want to live in a big house but I want a house that maximizes its potential and Betsy was able to give me that. I highly recommend Betsy and I think having a designer like Betsy is well worth the cost (which was extremely reasonable for the time and effort she put into my designs). I have lots of design styles that I like but putting them together never worked out and something always seemed missing. Now I understand the importance of an interior designer and will continue to use Betsy on any future projects.

Betsy has been a blessing to my business! I am the owner of Stellar Woodwerks LLC. and I have had the pleasure of working with Betsy on a few projects of various size and design. Her knowledge of design, layout and function is very impressive. I look forward to working with her in the future and I highly recommend utilizing her talent to accelerate any of your projects!

Betsy is an amazing , talented and professional designer!! She will not only finish the design in an outstanding way but she will go out of her way to ensure that the design coordinates perfectly even with areas outside the scope of the design. Collaborating with Betsy remotely exceeded my expectations and makes me respect her talent every time I see the finished results. Aside from her talent , Betsy is attentive, punctual, flexible and accommodating. I started with a design service for one room in my house and now Betsy is helping me with my entire home renovation project. Definitely highly recommended !!

Betsy and I have worked professionally for a few years. She's amazing, talented, attentive, well-versed in her trade and more. She is my go to all the way around. I can't imagine using anyone else. And she's perfect as a long distance resource too. That's important to me as my primary residence is Seattle.
