She’s quite the professional- handling all aspects of the project from start to finish.

"Better than I could have imagined!
Laura is an incredible designer. One of my favorite things about her work is that it is so personal. She has excellent taste and style, AND listened deeply to really get to know my style and preferences, so when the project was finished I knew it was completed just for me.
I love how, even online, she can see a space and all its potential. Using her skill and attention to detail she can pull it together in a way I certainly wouldn’t have been able to accomplish. I had an idea of what I wanted for my remodel and redesign projects, but I definitely didn’t have vision like she does. I could not be happier with the end results, onetime, on budget and so much better than I could have hoped for. Any owner would be lucky to work with Laura, her talent is immense, you will be thrilled at the outcome!"

"Laura did an amazing job on our condo. She made sure her team stayed on task, on cost and on time. The color, the style, and all the little touches she added.
She is a amazing person to work with, and at the end she did a video to show us what it looked like.
Best of all we have developed a friendship.
Our place is so beautiful. Thank you for what you did!
