"Esther has been a pleasure to work with... Her professionalism, design sense, and organizational skills are top notch. She has an extensive network of furniture, fabric, and lighting contacts and has made the design process for my new build as seamless as it could be. Even though the house is "done", I'm still working with Esther on several smaller projects to put the finishing touches on and have recommended her to other friends that need design help. You won't be disappointed!"
