Universal Designers in Mars Hill

“Jennifer was instrumental in helping us decorate our home in Western North Carolina. She was very patient and helped us envision what the property could look like. She guided us in creating a warm and welcoming home for our family.”

“Having just finished the final touches on my finished basement project, I can truly say that the entire project from beginning to end was as easy an endeavor as I could possibly imagine. Colleen not only provided wonderful suggestions on design, build out and final decoration, but also referred me to the best possible contractors in my area. Through Colleen's help and guidance I now have doubled my living space and have a wonderful showplace in which to entertain. Colleen is a very thoughtful and creative designer with obvious experience and is readily willing to share that experience with great insight throughout a project. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again should I need help with another design project.”

“Kayla Beavers is the consummate Interior Design professional. She helped me from the inception of designing my home - recommending colors, granite, fixtures and finishes - to its completion in choosing furniture and decor items. She has an exceptional eye for color, lighting, balance and space planning. She is careful and pays great attention to detail, is fun to work with and is very prompt and responsive to any inquiries. I have received many compliments on my new home and all those compliments belong to her. I recommend Kayla without hesitation to anyone with interior design needs.”

“Kris is such a professional and very detailed! He is skilled as considering all the spatial aspects of the cabinetry design in relation to the architecture and the interior design. He also is able to accommodate any range of budget and offer beautiful quality products for any project. I have enjoyed working with both Kris and Julie on several projects and would highly recommend Atwood Cabinetry!”

“Alice Dodson designed a house for us located on mountain property in Buncombe County, NC, in 2016. We love the house plan she designed for us and recommend her without reservation! She met every deadline she set for herself, often completing ahead of her self-imposed deadlines. She is very creative and extremely meticulous in her designs. She exceeded our expectations based on work we have seen by other architects in this area. She collaborates skillfully and willingly with other building professionals in the process. She has many years of experience and you can see this in her work product. Her fees are fair and she is very easy to discuss fees, deadlines and design decisions with. She is very knowledgeable about all parts of the building process that are not necessarily a part of her architectural design. She is very cost-conscious on behalf of her client--frequently advising us of ways to save money that we had not considered.”

“Maria Rusafova's skills Include her professionalism, her thoroughness, being on top of the planning and construction process. But what I liked the most about my experience with her is that she gets you and respects your vision of a house of your dreams or whatever project you request from her”

“Scott designed our house and did an outstanding job! He listened to us and understood what we wanted and was able to fulfill everything. He helped us avoid mistakes by taking the time to explain what would work and what would not. We would highly recommend Scott.”

“My husband and I were very fortunate to have Robert Griffin, President of Griffin Architects, PA and Fireside Antiques, Asheville, NC provide us with a home makeover. Mr. Griffin is a well known and respected Asheville architect and designer, very knowledgeable and capable. He is experienced with both multi-million dollar homes and modest homes such as ours. One of the many things that impressed us was Mr. griffin's gracious attitude. Our home was shown the same attention and care as would be given a much larger project. He was consistently respectful and considerate, taking into account our personalities, lifestyle and the pets who share (and sometimes rule!) our home. Our house is eleven years old, and I could never get the interior "right". I knew we needed a lot of help. I had no idea how to bring my vision to life, or even what my vision was. We only had one piece of furniture, bought eleven years ago, that I still liked. I showed Mr. Griffin that piece and said that I wanted the rest of the house to have that modern look and feel. I knew there was a vibe I wanted our home to have but couldn't put in words and certainly had not a clue how to achieve. He nailed it! Working with us every step of the way, he brought my very cloudy vision to life, and on budget, in a timely fashion. Griffin Architects designed a personalized cabinet for TV and my husband's pottery. (He is a potter.) Mr. Griffin was able to see specifically what we needed for TV and pottery, along with a very striking area rug, furniture and art, all designed for our home. And designed with us; we always felt part of the project, our needs always top priority. Fireside Antiques designed beautiful draperies and other soft goods. Almost as important, this creative designer managed to make the project fun! We can honestly say it really was a fun project with a great outcome. We could not be more pleased. Pics are included. One is the before. Think you can tell which one it is! Ann Dice Hendersonville, NC”

“Greyscale Design was a dream to work with and I highly recommend using their expertise in this field! They took the time to listen to our team and what we were looking for, and they were able to recreate our exact vision. They worked within our budget and finished on time. It was a job well done, and we were very pleased!”

“Laura has an incredible knowledge and excellent design skills. She is wonderful to work with and really listens. I strongly recommend her and her firm.”
