“I had living room, dining room and kitchen totally remodeled. I have very limited space and Doreen was able to get every last inch for me. She worked with the contractor seamlessly as if they were a team. I am so pleased in having her as my designer. She was able to get more storage and space in my kitchen then I ever thought possible. I even still have a few sheves still empty. She understood my cost constraints and still made my house look like a million bucks. Words used by my friends after seeing the remodel are incredible, awesome, beautiful, unbelieveable, and stunning.”

“Hi Love working with Lori. I had a remodel done for my kitchen and bathroom and Lori was very helpful in choosing the right colors to match and everything to coordinate. When you are spending so much money remodeling I felt it was important to have someone like her. I absolutely love my remodel and get complements all the time. Lori is very talented and listens to her clients.”

“Their work is great! They deliver what they promise and the team and contractors worked very hard and quickly to make my kitchen remodel as smooth as possible. It was a pleasure working with them.”

“Keely Brewer was referred to us by a trusted contact. My initial project was a bed crown, which she helped create/design/install, and it turned out beautifully! So much so, that we decided to use her for additional interior and remodel projects, our kitchen in particular. Kitchen redesigns are her specialty, and suffice to say, she did a tremendous job and gave us exactly what we wanted. Working with Keely has been a pleasure--she's personable and very accommodating, in addition to being extremely knowledgeable...and has turned into a good friend as well. She is reliable and sees all her projects through from start to finish, and beyond! Keely comes highly recommended, and can successfully handle any design challenge and exceed your expectations!”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Holly Stosic at our homes in Manhattan Beach and in Arizona. The MB house remodel was a galley Kitchen and three bathrooms. The kitchen was orginally very dark and confining. We have a vaulted ceiling. Holly suggested putting in windows above the cabinets, so we wouldn’t lose storage. The outcome was beautiful and it brings in so much natural light. The cabinets are a soft gray (almost white) very coastal looking. The laundry was adjacent to the kitchen and it is all enclosed in cabinetry, so it looks like part of the kitchen. Holly put in a gray cabinet/pantry that looks like a piece of furniture. She added quartz counter tops and blue iridescent Sonoma tile. Holly suggested incorporating rustic wood shelves and a beautiful butcher block top of our adjacent bar area. In kid’s Jack and Jill suite we used Walker Zanger white crackle tile. It had so many great different pieces and allows for accessorizing as our girls grow-up. Going with the coastal theme of the house, we used a Carrera marble looking Caesarstone on the counters. All of our vanities were raised, as we are a very tall family. Holly didn’t miss a beat and she even fed our pets while we were on vacation. Our bathroom was also Walker Zanger tile, an off-white tile with soft green accent tiles. The cabinets are an off-white called linen. The powder room has a bold patterned tile on the floor and a porcelain vanity. The whole family loves the house so much. Recently, we purchased a home in the desert. Holly has such incredible listening skills. She makes the project fun and I just felt so confidant. Even when things go wrong, she is right there with a solution. I love that she doesn’t make excuses. Her team is incredible. We’re in the planning stages for our desert house, which will be very modern. I highly recommend La Costa Cabinets & Design.”

“INPLACE is fabulous! Allison Dorvieller and her team are incredible. They approach their business in a very thoughtful manner taking all of the clients needs into consideration. Allison has an incredible eye, great taste and an architectural approach that is a very rare find. I absolutely love my kitchen and the interior space planning and materials selection process was flawless. I found INPLACE to be extremely professional and meticulous with details. I would recommend them without reservation and can't imagine doing a project without them at the helm.”

“We are in the process of a DIY kitchen remodel but had a very challenging floor plan which did not flow very well nor did it follow the basic kitchen triangle layout. We found Kevin through the NKBA. He was the only designer who contacted us that was not a contractor looking for a remodel job. He came to our house for a consultation, and using his extensive knowledge, came up with a workable and functional design that we would have never thought of, taking into account our wish list. He also has a wealth of contacts for various other trades which was very helpful in our putting together our project plan and budget. The process that he follows from initial consultation to finished deliverable was top-notch. He starts with a rough draft which he converts into very professional 3-D designs. This allows his clients to give feedback and continue to refine until it is to the satisfaction of the client. The 3-D designs are then converted into 2-dimensional plans which are needed for the various aspects of a remodel. Overall, Kevin was a pleasure to work with. Even though we were a DIY client, I understand that he also works with contractors. We are so grateful that we were able to find someone willing to work with a DIY'er that could solve our challenging floor plan.”

“Heather's greatest gift is being able to decipher what you have in your head and bring it to life. She brings fresh ideas and is incredibly creative yet always considers function and form. Most importantly, she is able to figure out what is right for you as an individual.”

“We were fortunate to work with Marge twice. She did an incredible job designing our new kitchen in 2012, which we adore. She had a tough timeline as we needed it completed in record time, prior to our daughter's wedding. She came through on her commitments and our guests were welcomed in our beautiful new kitchen. We hired her again in 2013 for our bathrooms and laundry room and again, she exceeded our expectation with the design and quality of the cabinetry. My husband and I would recommend her highly, she listens and she has a great eye for style and detail. She is a true professional.”
