Universal Designers in Alleghany

“Manuela is a very talented designer and great to work with! She managed to pick just the right colors and help us with space planning in our home.”

“I am a contractor who has worked with Nick Sonder and find his plans to have more than the detail needed to build the project. The 3D renderings that he does bring the project to life for the client and give them a clear picture of what is being designed. Nick is extremely creative and is always bringing new ideas to life through his drawings. Nick Sonder is a pleasure to work with and very knowledgeable about all facets of the construction Industry.”

“We hired Stephanie to assist us with a kitchen remodel in our new Home. We were very pleased with Stephanie and her design expertise. She provided us with multiple design concepts that aligned with our ultimate vision. We were also pleased with being able to see our project drawn out as opposed to having to visualize the final. Stephanie helped us from the start up through the changing details of the project to the final finishing touches. We highly recomend her services for your next project.”

“Sarah is wonderful to work with. She's creative and very responsive. We are looking forward to our next project with her.”

“I'm grateful to have Tammy as the designer for our home in Malibu. As a client who has no sense of style and is extremely indecisive about design decisions, yet, wouldn't give up any control in the design process, Tammy saved me from making terrible design/ material choices without making me feel inferior throughout the process. Tammy patiently listened to my endless rambles and was successful in identifying the critical points of my numerous dilemmas. She tactfully renders drawings as a visual proposal that addresses my needs, wishes, and desires while instilling her good sense of style while enforcing designs that are also functional. For example, In a meeting with my general contractor and cabinet subcontractors, Tammy made a lasting impression on everyone in the meeting. They were impressed not just with her speed to complete CAD drawings that incorporated changes in the meeting in order to guide me visually through making detailed decisions. They were most impressed that Tammy demonstrated a tasteful style and was able to share various options to quickly help me resolve any possible issues or concerns. Tammy possesses all the qualities of a great designer, a great sense of style to fit the client's taste; knowledgable of products and materials to fit the design; most importantly an excellent communication style to help her clients transform their dream home into a reality.”

“I spent 18 months five years ago working with Ms. Keiser to furnish my new SF home. I had decided to bring no furniture from my upper EastSide Manhattan apartment. I wanted a new approach, different from what my decorator had so splendidly done there. I had high expectations but she was young. I decided to take a chance because I liked her confidence and her sense of style and her hutzpah to disagree with me. We spent days at the Design Center visiting a dizzying array of vendor show rooms. We reviewed catalogs, agreeing, disagreeing on fabrics, styles, We visited scores of antique shops, consignment stores. She found a HudsonSide Table, four Les Arcs Barstools, a Furlong Ottoman (that has dazzled visitors0 and more. At the conclusion of our partnership Ms. Keiser presented me with a leather bound book replete with photos, invoices of evrrt item we acquired. If I was not completely satisfied I would not have so elaborated herein. J William Grimes”

“Scott at Sandbox is amazing. His design was beautiful and well thought out. He has been timely with everything. Our house is going to be incredible.”

“This company is a 5 star company. You get top notch service! Karen is knowledgable, talented, creative, friendly, patient, reliable and responsible. We did a huge kitchen remodel and Karen patiently worked with us even with changes that we continued to make. After this remodel, we continued to hire her for our office remodel, building of a laundry room and plans for other big projects. We have recommended Karen to many friends telling them they are getting the best.”

“This company was able to design & execute beautiful display fixtures for my modern/rustic store on very short notice. They were right on the mark with getting my taste preferences as well as the pieces functioning well for a retail store. Customers comment on the work regularly. The team at Atmosphere Design Build was equally a pleasure to work with.”

“The principal architects, Kurt and Kristi, are not only extremely talented in architecture and design, but pay strict attention to what it is that the clients wish in their home or commercial project. So often architects are not adaptable but these folks are. They also make a genuine effort to stay within budget though that is so difficult to control with costs bouncing all over the place and clients changing their minds during construction. For character and ability, I whole heartedly recommend MWA.”
