Minneapolis, MN Lighting Design Professionals

“Through Michels Homes, we were very fortunate to have been paired up with Jami Ludens of Studio M Interiors to help with the design of our kitchen remodel. Jami immediately identified the style we were trying to achieve in our kitchen on her first visit with us. Every sample she showed us from counter tops, back splash options, hardware for the cabinets to the lighting, paint colors, sink and faucet were spot on and we loved everything. Jami was extremely easy and accommodating to work with, she had wonderful ideas and suggestions and was always very timely in getting back to me with any and all questions I had. She also kept us in the loop as far as the timing of the items that were ordered and anything else she felt we needed to know during the process, which was very important to us. Jami suggested we use the same tile we used for our back splash around our gas fireplace, something I hadn’t thought of and we are thrilled with the way it turned out. Jami also spent a lot of time coming to our home with samples as opposed to just looking at them at Mingle. It was very helpful and valuable to be able to look at samples in the actual space. I feel Jami Ludens was consistently going above and beyond on our project as evidenced by the photo below where she even delivered and carried our heavy Blanco sink up our long driveway. All in all, Jami was a delight to work with and I enjoyed each and every session with her. She helped make the entire process a flawless transition to the beautiful kitchen it is now. In addition, Jami has a very warm personality and has a great sense of humor. I would highly recommend her design expertise to anyone building a new home, remodeling their current home or design services in general.”

“We have had Woodcraft Design Build Inc. complete numerous projects ranging from landscaping to a new bathroom build out at our 2 properties and are currently looking at building a new home with them. I trust the owner and his staff to do what they say they will do and within the timeline discussed. Since working with Woodcraft on an initial project 3 years ago, they are the only company I would consider using.”

“Kate is a talented designer and a joy to worth with. We have done numerous projects together and she is always an excellent addition to any building team.”

“Kara and her team are brilliant at what they do; they come up with unique, amazing ideas/products that make me LOVE coming home and hosting any event. We design room by room and I can hardly wait for the next room to be finished!”

“I hired Carol Interior Fashions to do work on my home which had absolutely no charm. Carol came into my home, listened to my ideas and blended together a plan to reform my home. I wanted to do it right the first time considering the cost of paint ,furnishings ,window treatments and time. Carol went right to work with myself and my husband to help us transform our home creating a ,"Tuscan villa" feel. Carol was always very professional and always on time with deadlines. Carol has a great personality and it is very easy to share ideas with her .Carol values your input by coordinating your style/personality with the design . It's a shared masterpiece. I would hire Carol again and again. Which I do.”

“I have worked with Laura Bischoff of Metropolis Design Group on two occasions--both with my 1924 family home in Tangletown in South Minneapolis and with my "empty-nest" modern condo on the river downtown. I loved working with her both times and highly recommend her. She is fun, kind, smart and great to be around and brings a wide variety of skills and a depth of knowledge that dramatically increases what is possible. She is hands-on--painting a lovely graphic element to make a focal point of a set of kitchen cupboards, for example--and also can access whatever other resources (both people and materials) that are needed. She has great ideas to extend a budget, a wonderful eye for color and texture. With both my homes, she helped create a sophisticated and wonderfully comfortable background for my life. I look forward to working with her again!”

“Erin's designs are modern yet timeless and feel effortless yet impactful! I highly recommend Erin to anyone looking for a kind, loving, professional who will bring your home into a world of its own design, beauty and warmth!”

“Kimberly worked with me to design a kitchen in our 1940 home. She gave me wonderful ideas and options while at the same time respecting my thoughts and lifestyle. She knew how to blend functionality with esthetics creating a beautiful kitchen space that not only looks fabulous but is easy to work in.”

“Kim does an amazing job finding the most perfect pieces and I absolutely love working with her! The space she has been working on has been completely transformed beyond what I had thought possible. She has great vision and can work within your budget and help you achieve great results. I highly recommend Kim as an interior designer that listens and delivers great service!”
