This is why an interior designer is a must for me when I get a place of my own... This was so well executed, I couldn't fault a single thing.

This apartment is gorgeous, and beautifully designed. I love the dark moody colours. It is luxuriously warm.

I love how much care and thought was put into making this the most functional and yet beautiful place for the client. Incredible job! And nice to see something so utterly unique on this channel.

Amazing, what you e done here. Don’t typically think of ‘dark & moody’ in small spaces, but you’ve made me a believer. Particularly love the way the natural light from the full-wall window plays with the space. It’s giving a vibe of dramatic sophistication. Love the transformation.

It’s absolutely stunning. Love the design is dark and moody but it feels like when you’re home you just relax into a warm cosy space

Absolutely beautiful. 10/10 for the space. Dark and moody, yet still lively and colourful enough to not be drab. Luxurious and warm/cozy, and some good use of space with the cabinetry and such. Love it

She is so talented. I think she completely captured his vision. Beautiful place anyone would love.

I love this apartment! Dark and moody is what I love. The only thing missing is a dining area. There is a bit of space in front of the hidden bar. A small round table and a couple of chairs would fit...just my two cents.

[winnielukyanovich]

I love how this is moody but still warm and not all just one tone. The designer really thought out the use of space and functionality.

Very clever in the kitchen she used the same colour for upper and lower cabinetry, but used more textured details in the upper cabinetry to make the space look interesting.

She is probably the BEST designer you guys have featured. Pls pls plssss…. Show more of work. Style and function perfectly balanced. This unit looks so cozy, elegant, modern and sexy. We need more of her.

[deborahunger]

Well done! The design features are fabulous and appear to be life-changing for your client!

Making something beautiful and masculine is hard to achieve. LOVE this condo. I like the colors and materials used and how the boutique-like concept created a very effective storage space. The wine bottle cabinet and the hidden bar screams : Doctor 007, with license to bring you back to life.

one of better transformation i have seen in awhile

[marquamfurniture]

[eylinsmc]

This apartment is absolutely awesome!! It feels cozy and warm and I love the way the Interior Designer adjusted to the client’s wishes!

[annadr]

Very brave & tasteful set of colors. I liked the effect very much.

[nikkim]

Very talented and thoughtful designer.
I loved the way she talks. Very soft spoken and chic. Many other designers in the show laugh loud and most of the time unnecessary comments.
Love her the design and personality 💕
