Client Love
“We have many family dinners and large get-togethers which all end up in our kitchen. While our space was attractive it wasn’t really very functional. We shared some ideas (that I now see as “bush league ” that we were thinking. At our second meeting in Carla’s office I was amazed. It’s like we were whistling a tune that she turned into a symphony! I couldn’t believe her ideas were even possible but told her that if she could do that, we were all in. As we selected countertops , lights and faucets she would incorporate the exact choices in her 3-D renderings and email them to us. I can’t describe how valuable those pictures were in making decisions during the process. Tonight, we had some family over for dinner and we were flooded with compliments and OMG exclamations! Our kitchen is now huge, open, functional and attractive. Looking back, I cannot imagine undertaking this huge project without Carla.”
