We got Helene involved with our remodel at the beginning. Her expert recommendations were implemented throughout the whole remodel process. As we had questions along the way, she was available to offer suggestions. Helene's recommendations are a direct result of her taking the time to listen to our requests and physically looking at the space we had to work with. Today, we have a large beautiful kitchen that functions so smoothly. Thank you Helene!

Helene and her team have done a fabulous job creating my kitchen space. I have all new cabinets and they are absolutely gorgeous. Helene's recommendations on the design, layout, style, color and add-on options made for a perfect kitchen for me. Every detail was meticulously executed.
I love the beauty and simplicity. My favorites are the pantry, lazy susan, and sponge drawer pullout above the sink base cabinet. Now, everything has a place and there is nothing cluttering the countertops!
I am very lucky to have been introduced to Helene and her team. It came out better than I could have imagined. I think the photos speak for themselves.

I first worked with Helene about 10 years ago on a complete kitchen remodel. During the last 2 years, we have worked with her on another kitchen remodel, a pantry remodel, and a full custom library. Helene will be designing at least two more remodels for us in the coming year, a master bedroom closet remodel and an expanded utility room remodel. Working with Helene is an absolute delight - she is professional, personable, and extremely talented. Helene addresses every detail, understands budgetary constraints, brings projects in on time, and comes up with creative solutions for both design and functionality. We couldn't be happier with the projects she has done for us and recommend her wholeheartedly - Helene is wonderful and her work product is fabulous!

Helene was actually referred to my by a decorator that I have used for several projects in my home. We met and she looked over the space, reviewed the budget and came up with a fabulous efficient design that included all of the items that I couldn't live without. She worked well with the contractor and decorator which saved time and money. Altogether it was a painless experience and I am enjoying the fruits of their labors every day. She was an integral part of a great team and I look forward to working with her again when the occasion arises.

I could not be happier with my selection of Helene. Her 25 year + experience in design paid off in the gutting and redesign of a challenging lenghty kitchen and bar area. Using her suggestions for space and placement we created a workable gorgeous plan. She walked me through the cabinet and appliance selection with her network of professionals and orchestrated the finish out flawlessly. Her installers were precise and timely and we remained on schedule and within budget. All in all a delight to work with!

I have nothing but the highest praise for Helene. She helped us with our kitchen remodel and, in addition to being extremely gifted and talented, she is a pleasure to work with. Her depth of expertise and knowledge is amazing. She collaborates effortlessly with homeowner, contractor and subcontractors. We could not be more pleased with the results of our kitchen and we know that Helene's attention to detail was a major factor in the outcome. I would highly recommend Helene. We had such a great experience that we are now working with her on a second project.

I needed an independent Kitchen specialist for a few consult hours.
Helene is a kitchen fairy! She immediately applied her experience and knowledge as soon as she saw the kitchen cabinet drawings and I watched magic happen right in front of my eyes. She made some easy design adjustments that resolved some issues on all three walls and I have to say that even my builder was thrilled!
I am so grateful for that appointment and feel like I met a friend, too. I would recommend her to anyone building or renovating. I feel confident that ALL her design suggestions will make a huge difference in the completed project. Thank you - Thank you!

Helene is a delight to work with on my interior design projects! She is great with clients, great with subs and general contractors and with interior designers! Helene is a high caliber person with the best character! She is friendly, professional, knowledgeable, creative, excellent attitude at all times and is respectful of client's budgets. One client had a fish tank they wanted to keep in the kitchen/breakfast area of a very high-end kitchen we were remodeling. Helene came up with the idea of building in the aquarium into the end cabinet so the side panel revealed the aquarium. It rolled out like a cabinet to be cleaned! Exceeded expectations on that project!

Helene puts her heart and soul into the space planning and designing of functional as well as beautiful kitchens! She has expert knowledge of luxury appliances and is well versed in a number of custom cabinet manufacturers. Her pleasant and calm personality makes her a joy to work with!
I was pleased to refer her to some dear friends for the major renovation of their 1937 kitchen in a Spanish colonial home. Helene's efforts resulted in a very efficient and "chef friendly" layout with fabulous storage, prep areas, and a compact work triangle. As an interior designer, I appreciate having an independent, experienced kitchen planner available to lend her expertise to a challenging project. I would highly recommend Helene to anyone interested in planning a new kitchen or remodeling an existing one.
