Universal Designers Near Dallas

“We recently purchased a new home, and working with Rachael Elise Design has been a wonderful experience. Rachael has an incredible eye for design and is helping us create a home that feels both beautiful and uniquely ours. What impresses me most is how much she accomplishes in a short amount of time. She is organized, efficient, and always comes prepared with creative ideas. At the same time, she is flexible and genuinely values her clients’ input. She listens to my opinions and helps guide decisions that not only look amazing but also reflect my personality and lifestyle. One of my favorite parts of the process is shopping together. Rachael makes it fun and stress-free while helping narrow down options and ensuring everything works cohesively. She has a talent for balancing great design with her clients’ personal style, and I appreciate how collaborative the entire process has been. I also appreciate that she works with pieces we already own and love, finding ways to incorporate them into the overall design rather than starting from scratch. It makes the home feel personal and intentional while still elevating the entire space. We recently hosted a housewarming party, and our guests couldn’t stop commenting on how beautiful our home looks. Several people mentioned that it felt comfortable, welcoming, and even like a luxury Airbnb. Hearing those reactions was incredibly rewarding, and it speaks to Rachael’s ability to create spaces that are not only beautiful but also inviting and enjoyable to live in. I highly recommend Rachael Elise Design to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and personable interior designer. I am excited to continue working with her and can’t wait to see the finished result.”

“We actually began a remodel of our kitchen and master bedroom with a design/build firm other than Sardone/McLain. After a few months of back-and-forth with the designer and builder it became apparent that they didn't really seem interested in anything other than getting the contract. We'd also started hearing stories from our neighbors about the firm not finishing jobs in a timely manner, and going days or weeks without showing up. Even though we'd already spent several thousand dollars with them we decided to look at other firms. Through Houzz we found Sardone / McLain. When they took over this project, they came over and wanted to know how we live in our house. they asked "What are the things about the house you love? What are the things that you would like to see better. How do you use it? Where do you spend most of your time? Where do your guests congregate?" They got to know US first, and that comfort level you can't put a price on. Sardone/McLain then coupled a beautiful design and superior craftsmanship to create a space we absolutely love. A special thanks to Stephan, Bryan, Ayah and Jack for bringing this space to life! James J. Barb J.”

“Jennifer is a great designer. She took time to understand our individual tastes and needs for the space and created a classy design that we both love. She is upfront with costs and will consult with you about all expenses throughout the project to stay on budget. She set up an idea board on houzz for us to exchange design thoughts and images. After we worked out the final design idea she created a detailed digital design of the space and brought us sample materials to see in person. In addition to her sharp design skills, she is also very knowledgable of the construction codes. We recommend Bolen Designs, she will design a beautiful space for you.”
