From the very first meeting to the final walk through, I felt like I was Carla’s most important client. We completed a 7 month remodel and I was very nervous about all the selections and choices that would need to be made as someone who doesn’t have an eye for design. Carla streamlined all the selection meetings and empowered me to make the best decisions. Even coming to my rescue after hours when unexpected issues arose with contractors or the overall plan. I have already recommended her to close friends in the midst of a new build. You won’t be disappointed.”
