Newark, NJ Living Room Design Professionals

“Stefania did an excellent job of transforming our garden shed into an artistic living environment both inside and outside. She made our post and beam into a beautiful, comfortable, usable creative space to be in. Outside, Stef morphed living tress and shrubs into a usable space. I couldn't believe how organic our new space is. I love her work!”

“I entrusted Megan Grehl to transform my new NYC apartment into a beautiful, comfortable place to live. I desired a design that would reflect my personality and style - clean, contemporary, feminine, and soft. I really liked the mood boards since they helped me to imagine what my space could look like. Megan was receptive to my feedback and also addressed my specific needs, such as selecting custom black out blinds to provide almost complete darkness to improve my sleep. Megan did an excellent job designing my apartment with a neutral color scheme with just the right amount of feminine colors, accents and textures. I especially like the lighting she chose for the space. She really thought about how to make sure that the apartment was balanced and felt like a home, not a startup office. She also helped me decide in which pieces to invest and how I could save money in other areas. My apartment has become a place where I really enjoy spending time and relaxing. I was not an easy person to work with, so I appreciated the flexibility and patience that Megan and her team had when working with me. They were always available to be on site to help with the contractors. Megan was also available for video calls to go over ideas. It was my first time working with a professional designer for my home, and I am very pleased with the results of the project and working with Megan and her team.”

“I worked with Susana on our living room. She is amazing at a modern/clean aesthetic (and also on a budget!). Super mindful of our needs as a family. Would highly recommend Susana! Her vendors stand behind their work!!!! Thanks Susana! Ella”

“We have been working with Deborah Leamann since the early 1980's and she has coordinated countless projects for us at three different properties during that time. Her design judgment and sense of style are flawless, and she has always arranged for the most talented craftsmen to work with us, contributing to the overall effect. In addition, we have found her very easy to work with, as she is flexible rather than determined in her ideas, and has a warm personality. My husband and I have always been thrilled with the outcome, and I have complete confidence in Deborah Leamann's skills and give her our unqualified endorsement.”

“I strongly endorse Tara Benet for any residential or commercial project. I have worked with Tara over the past 5 years. She has designed and decorated my homes in New York and Florida, and my law offices in New York and Florida as well. Tara is extraordinarily talented. As you may know she is an artist who brings all of her incredible abilities to the decorative world. She creates a unique living and working space that brings much happiness and enjoyment. More than anything else, Tara creates livable and workable space that exudes positive energy. It is a special joy to work with her. I also want to emphasize that Tara's approach is iterative and collaborative. I never felt that she was trying to dictate design or creative ideas. Rather she listens and works with clients to find out what we want. I think this is a very unique and special style. Tara takes the time to talk to and understand client needs. She is also very careful to work within reasonable and realistic budgets. At the end of the process, I have always felt a special connection to the places I live and work in because I was brought into the creative process. As you can tell, I am a very big fan, and would be happy to talk to anyone who is thinking about hiring Tara. She is the very best and you will not be disappointed.”

“Lucy is wonderful to work with. She tailors the design to your tastes and comfort level--and then gives you a little push to something you never would have thought of, but love once she has done. I'm very happy with the final outcome.”

“We hired AJ Margulis Interiors for help with our bedrooms and living room. The attention to detail, understanding how we lived, our personalities and our tastes really set us at ease. The work was timely, efficient and well thought out. The rates were on par with the other estimates we received. We highly recommend AJ Margulis Interiors and will use them again!”

“Marie Burgos did a wonderful job on our apartment, she was hardworking, reliable and easy going. She bought much to the table as far as design options go and was quickly able to comprehend and reproduce our desired aesthetic. ”

“I hired apartmentjeanie to completely make over my tiny new rental in Manhattan. I had been living in a much bigger space in Queens before relocating to the East Village. My furniture seemed over sized and my need for bright, colorful and textured design seemed impossible in my new 350 square feet. Thanks to apartmentjeanie my furniture fits absolutely perfectly, bright colored walls and wallpaper were used to demarcate spaces in the junior one bedroom. apartmentjeanie is honestly a magician. Looking back at the photos I took before moving in, the place really looked tiny. But after the rental went under apartmentjeanie's touch it looks and feels so much more spacious and absolutely sophisticated. No longer a junior one bedroom rental but my glamorous and gorgeous home. I highly highly recommend apartmenthjeanie!!!!! She is creative, talented, and wonderful to work with.”

“Focused, intuitive, highly motivated, great coordinating of style and design. This is Sheila. My wife and I worked with her company and were extremely pleased how easily she made the decision process. All stress eliminated. The final results were outstanding!”
