About Us
Sue helps her clients navigate quickly and easily through the thousands of decisions and actions involved in a accomplishing a successful remodel.
She can easily see what the viable options are for arranging the space and can present them to the client in different ways to make sure they fully understand and can choose the best one for them.
She can understand the different lifestyles that different families have and helps them with the selection of appropriate building materials including appliances, windows, cabinets, counters, tiles, floors, lighting and plumbing materials. There are so many things to choose from and all of them have good and bad points. She is very familiar with and knowledgeable about these different materials and how they inter-relate. This helps the client to more quickly narrow down their choices. In order to get an accurate estimate of the cost of a project a family has to be very specific with their potential contractors. The specification packet that Sue helps the client prepare, along with many drawings that she does of all the construction specifics, means that contractors can accurately estimate and quickly accomplish the renovations to the clients complete satisfaction.
Sue helps with project management throughout the project, making sure the construction is done as quickly and correctly as possible. The client will never be wondering what is the next step or when they have to provide this or that in order to keep the project moving along. She is always available to contractors and subs to make sure all their questions are answered promptly so they can get it done on time and on budget.

Sue with Vision Design is wonderful to work with. She designed our ancient bathroom remodel into something to be proud of. I'm really pleased with the result and hope to work with her on another project soon!

We just completed a kitchen renovation with Sue and are so happy with the result! We went into it thinking we'd get a nice kitchen, but I'd say we ended up with a pretty dreamy kitchen. Sue has an organized process and is full of good information. We'd recommend her to anyone needing design services.

I hired Vision Design last year because, having never been through a remodel before, I knew there were a lot to the process and I didn't even know what questions to ask. I wanted someone to walk me through each step of the remodeling journey. I'm so happy that I chose Vision Design. Sue was wonderful in guiding me through the project timeline, which appliances to consider, and choosing materials as well as trouble shooting any design/functional obstacles that came up. Her suggested contacts in the industry were all local, very helpful and experts in their respective fields. What I've heard is a very stressful endeavor (with a pandemic added on towards the beginning!), proved to be manageable, fun and rewarding. I owe that all to Sue. She worked very well with our contractor to create a beautiful home for our family. If even you've been through a remodel before, do yourself a HUGE favor and hire Sue to get the job done in a relatively timely, cost effective and stress-free way.

Sue was hired to help us with an extensive remodel that involved the kitchen, floors and stairs. We were under a time constraint with a goal of being out of the house no more than 2-3 months, living in during the final stages of completion. She helped us meet that goal by ensuring all design, subcontractor and appliance selections were made before we started the project. She took a lot of time and effort in the kitchen and cabinetry design -- this was very well done and we've been happy with her recommendations. We ran into a few snags in the total project along the way, which required a few adjustments. All in all, we stayed close to time and budget expectations. I would recommend Vision Design for kitchen design again.

Sue helped us update our 90+ year old kitchen. She was organized, detailed, had creative ways to get the most of our tiny space, and listened to our sometimes confused thinking to create a beautiful, workable space that suits us. She and her staff communicated really well with each other to move the project forward with minimum delay, and communication with us was clear, accurate and kind. She saved us money and time, and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her as a thoroughly professional designer/coordinator.

Sue Harrison of Vision Design was instrumental is making our remodeled kitchen beautiful, functional and fun. It has been over a year since the remodel was complete and we love it even more now that we are using the kitchen and realize how well designed it is.
Sue was able to incorporate our special wishes while providing guidance for good kitchen design. All of the subcontractors she recommended were great to work with and did excellent work.
I would hire her again for any house design.

Sue is extremely knowledgeable about both design elements and building process needs. On our job, she stepped into a mid-process project with only minimal design documentation and frustrations already high. She skillfully managed through what we would need to think about, helped choose materials, and provided all the design documentation needed for construction. A great blend of design and technical expertise, with a whole lot of patience!

Sue is a designer that really listens and designs to your needs. Sue did a lot of rough sketches and many back and forth with us to design our space. As working professionals, we were time constrained and Sue helped us with hiring contractors to choosing paint colors, and helped schedule and follow through various phases of the project.

We hired Sue at Vision Design for our kitchen remodel. Sue came highly recommended by several friends, all who had kitchens I admired.
She guided us through design and materials choices. We hired contractors who worked with Sue on prior projects, which meant they worked well together. She scheduled and coordinated the work efficiently and managed any blips along the way. I couldn’t be happier with my new kitchen and ease with which it all came together. Both are a direct result of the amazing job Sue did in designing our kitchen and managing the project. Can’t wait to finish unpacking the boxes and start cooking!

I'd give Sue more stars if I could. I first worked with Sue over 15 years ago. I thought my project would be too small (townhouse), but Sue and her team gave my project gave all the attention and detail as a larger one. I had little idea of what I wanted, and she guided me through the process with ease; every recommendation she made was spot-on. I had to move out to complete the remodel, and her team completed the work ahead of schedule to get me back home. And I loved the remodel and am still very happy with it!
A few months ago, I wanted to add air conditioning (she had recommended it for my remodel 15 years ago but I regretfully did not do it). I spoke to several contractors; she and her contractor were by far the best. She was the only one who recommended updating the insulation to make the system more efficient, and it has been even better than expected.
A month or so ago my toilet leaked and damaged the sub-flooring. She quickly rallied her contractors to get the tile removed and floor fixed, and we're about to lay the tile. In the meantime, her contractors completed some updates (lighting, heat fan, etc.), and I am loving them. It has been an absolute pleasure getting to work with Sue and her team!

This was our first time doing a major remodel (master bathroom), and decided to work with Sue based on a friend's referral. After our first couple of meetings, where Sue walked us through various options and steps of the remodel, we had a reasonably good idea about the process and timeline for the project. Sue worked with us during the whole process of choosing materials (counter top, vanities, sinks, medicine cabinets, tiles etc.,), helping us narrow down the choices as wells as with color coordination and design. The biggest help (for us newbies) was with managing, scheduling, and coordinating the construction process with our GC/Tiler/Electrician/others. She was very responsive through the whole process, and we would wholeheartedly hire her services again if we had another remodel project.

Sue is a friendly, knowledgeable and personable architectural designer. She uses reliable contractors who are considerate of the client and their home during the disruption of the remodel process. Sue uses a methodical process in guiding clients from the initial design request, alternate designs options, selection of construction materials, selecting new appliances and coordination with the various contractors involved. Overall, we are very happy with the results, and working with Sue as our home remodel designer.
