My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

I recently finished my first project with Blu Home. I am a custom home builder and Chelsea and her team provided Interior Design services for my project, SeaThru. I found them to be professional, responsive and very talented. There is little doubt their presence in the project added to the experience and the finished product. The clients were very happy with them. I would recommend them to anyone.

We worked with BLU Interiors on a remodel on Siesta Key. It was a pleasure working with Chelsea. She is highly attentive to details and has a great sense of space and design. We recommend her to anyone looking to design the interior of their home!

I've had the privilege of collaborating with BLU Interiors on a few projects in the Atlanta area. I'm amazed at what they can create in some of the spaces I've been in. It's totally fresh. I can't wait to connect with Chelsea and Jessica on the next project they invite me on. They're total pros. Thank you!!

We purchased a home in Bradenton that had lots of potential but needed a new kitchen, fresh paint everywhere, and fast furniture solutions to turn it into our home. Chelsea was a delight to work with and met our expectations completely. Our remodeled kitchen looks amazing, with Chelsea's granite and backsplash choices being the perfect finishing touches. We replaced almost every lighting fixture based on her recommendations. And she is amazing on paint color choices! We requested a coastal look and are very satisfied with how everything blended together. We did not have an unlimited budget and Chelsea was careful to make interesting but not overly costly recommendations. We highly recommend her.

Chelsea helped me create a space I love. My house was completely transformed from builder's grade to fabulous. Everyone who sees my house asks for Chelsea's number, and I'm happy to recommend her. She was always on top of things and quick to return phone calls and emails. She completely transformed my space while staying in budget. She will definitely be my designer for life.

It is with great pleasure that we highly recommend Chelsea Dunbar as an accomplished and inspired interior designer. Before founding her own practice, as a special unique design talent, Chelsea was a significant creative contributor to the success and recognition my firm received as an internationally recognized architecture and interior design firm with global projects on six continents. Because of her creative energy and commitment to customized design solutions, my wife and I asked Chelsea to collaborate with us on a broad range of design services for the new custom contemporary home we are building on a resort barrier island in Charleston, South Carolina. The diversity of her talents and perceptive ability to listen are awe inspiring. From creating thoughtful functional layouts to imaginative interior designs enhancing the overall architectural experience and as a sensitive colorist advising on the color pallet of the home’s exterior, the range of Chelsea’s skills and the depth of her talent are truly special. She continues to be a valued partner and trusted advisor on all design and visual aspects throughout the creative evolutionary process. We are so appreciative of the talent, thoughtfulness and creativity she continues to share with us on our project. Thank you Chelsea.

Chelsea is very sweet and easy to work with and always responds to emails ASAP. What I most appreciate about her is she really listens to what my style and taste is and goes from there. She has great ideas and always keeps my preferences in mind. Chelsea has really helped my husband and I with so many things, from paint colors and furniture, to designing our fireplaces. I would highly recommend her to family and friends.

I have worked on many large renovations with Chelsea and BLU Interiors and she never ceases to amaze me with her keen eye for style and knack for keeping the project on task. As a designer myself I raise the bar in everything I do and only work with professionals who have the same work ethic as me. Chelsea is just outstanding in everything does. I would work with her again in a heartbeat.

Chelsea came in at the end of construction. She helped me choose final hardware for cabinets as well as a backsplash. Chelsea had great ideas and vision. She is good at making quick decisions and not wasting time. Then Chelsea created a budget for the furniture for the house and helped in those selections. Chelsea recognizes at the end of the day the client needs to love the furniture because he/she will be living with it. She helps guide you in making the right decisions.

We hired Chelsea in 2013 at the beginning of our renovation. I thought it was early to bring in a designer but was so glad I did. She helped with the thousands of choices we had to make during the renovation process and made sure we stayed on schedule. The result was a a cohesive, clean look across the house - something I never would have achieved without her. We have just started the decorating process and I am thrilled with the direction so far. Chelsea really listens to her clients and understands a variety of personal needs, from kids to budgets. I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone embarking on building, renovating or decorating a home.

Chelsea was highly recommended to me by another Interior Designer. From the beginning Chelsea was responsive, calming, supportive and easy to work with. She helped me identify my style and incorporated many items I wanted to use throughout the project. She helped me establish a budget and gave me realistic expectations around costs and timing to complete each phase of the project. My final results are outstanding and everyone raves about my place when they see it. She definitely exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend using Chelsea for your next project!
