Client Experience

"My consultation with Courtney was a great experience! She was very easy to talk to and work with, and she did a great job of giving suggestions for all of my concerns (fabric, wallpaper, lighting) during our 55 mins. I will be taking her suggestions and returning for more consultation throughout my design process. Thanks also to the founders of theexpert.com-- this is a great service and I only wish it was available years ago!"

"Courtney was extremely helpful. Before the meeting, I had prepared a little presentation with photos and ideas for my apartment, so during the call she could express some opinions and suggestions based on what I presented. I really liked how she gave ideas of how to use the space in a better way, as well as tips for where to buy furniture. 10/10 recommend her!"
