Working with Ania has been an absolute pleasure. She is an incredibly talented designer who has a keen eye for detail and a passion for creating exceptional designs. I have had the privilege of collaborating with her on multiple projects, and I can honestly say that she consistently exceeds expectations. Ania's devotion to her craft is apparent in every design she creates. Her work is not only aesthetically beautiful but also functional and practical, which is a testament to her expertise and experience. One of her most outstanding designs is her own home, which is a true masterpiece. Every aspect of the design is flawless, from the layout to the color scheme and the finishing touches. In addition to being a gifted designer, Ania is a pleasure to work with. She communicates effectively, listens carefully, and is always responsive to feedback. Her professionalism and commitment to excellence make her an invaluable asset to any team. I would highly recommend Ania to anyone seeking a talented, dedicated, and highly skilled designer. She is truly the best in the business, and I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with her.

Couldn't be happier with our kitchen and living space! Ania was great to work with and is so talented. We had no idea what we wanted or where to start and she was able to walk us through several choices and then narrow it down to the best option for us as a growing family. Her vision and keen eye for color is outstanding and totally worth every penny. I'm glad she gently pushed for some things based on her professional experience. For example, my husband was quite adamant about not wanting seating on our 10' island, she highly recommended we get it. We caved in (and so glad we did) because that's the most utilized space in the house. Our kids use it for schoolwork and meals, and whenever we have company (or had prior to covid) that would be the main space to gather. If you are wondering if a designer is worth it-- YES- they are (especially Ania).

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Thank you so much, Larisa! I very much enjoyed designing your kitchen and living area, and I'm happy to hear it's great for entertaining your family and friends. I'm so pleased that you are happy with how everything has come together and look forward to future collaborations :)

Ania was fantastic when she helped me transform my "jack-and-jill" bathroom into two bathrooms on the top floor of my 2 bed-1.5 bath condo. The original bathroom (circa 1970) used space very inefficiently. Ania patiently solicited my artistic vision as well as ensuring the practical aspects of the bathrooms were met. She was on top of the project and always responsive. I am a single woman with a demanding career. Ania catered to my needs and was there every step of the way. She was flexible and pivoted when obstacles arose. Now I have a fabulous master bathroom along with a second one for guests, both of which are welcoming and luxurious. I look forward to when she helps me redesign my kitchen and the rest of the home.

Patricia, the pleasure was all mine! You're such a nice and easy client you make my job easy. I can't wait to see your kitchen project happen!

Richard Dumas

Ania is absolutely sensational! I couldn't recommend her more highly. She has an amazing sense of style and was able to help us design and build a beautiful and inviting backyard that is now ready for entertaining. She has an excellent attention to detail and did a fantastic job of overseeing our contractor, spotting potential problems and resolving them to prevent costly overruns and future potential problems.

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Thank you Richard! Your family deserves a functional and beautiful back yard, and the pre-Covid timing was perfect. I know you'll enjoy your outdoor space for many years to come.

I had a great experience working with Ania over the past year. She is organized, thorough and had a good “big picture” sense of the project. I had originally planned to do 1-2 rooms but she with only slightly above my planned budget, she was able to expand to make some additions to other rooms so the home would be more cohesive. Great mix of affordable and higher end options for more impact! Also great advice on where to spend more money/budget items. Love my final project and really feel she elevated my Pinterest inspiration to a much more clean/elegant design

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Rekha, you were a pleasure to work with. I love your style and it gave me so much joy to be able to find furnishing that worked for you. Well, one thing didn't work so well, but we both deserve credit for being adventurous! It will always be our little secret :). I look forward to working with you again!

Konstructo, Inc.

I am a GC that has worked with Ania on multiple jobs. Working with her has been very easy-- her plans are always very thorough and every little detail is thought out. She does site visits often and is always readily available to answer any questions during the construction process. I would highly recommend Ania!

Thank you Priyam! It's always a pleasure to work with you!

Wendy Haworth

Ania recently worked with us on our master bath remodel and was amazing! We had a pretty clear vision of what we wanted, but she helped to pull everything together. Since it was a small bathroom, space was of the essence and she was able to figure out how to maximize storage options while keeping the design elements we wanted. She also worked closely with our contractor, making the whole process very easy on us. I would not hesitate to refer Ania to friends and family and will definitely be using her again for future projects.

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Wendy, thank you for your thoughtful review. You are wonderful to work with, and I was thrilled to help you redo your master bath. I'm glad it turned out just like you had envisioned it.

Jacqueline Maillet

I found Ania through a Houzz professional search , and knew from her reply to my inquiry that we would be a good fit. I needed to do a modest main floor update of our townhome. Ania was brilliant with her recommendations on paint colors, flooring , lighting, window treatments, a few strategic furniture upgrades, and cosmetic improvements to stretch the budget (including rearranging furniture and pictures, to replacing cabinet hardware, to painting dated fireplace hardware and heavy oak wood pieces ). Best part, my husband agreed unreservedly with all of her recommendations. Our living space looks so calming and elegant now. We could not have achieved this without Ania's creative , professional help. I highly recommend Ania for any design consultation and home interior renovation.

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Jackie, I'm happy we were able to achieve your goals. You have unique art, and knowing how important it is to you and your husband, it was a pleasure to display the pieces to their full potential. You were a joy to work with and I look forward to collaborating again!

Michael Alan Kaskel

I’ve worked with Ania on a number of projects from commercial spaces, to residential interiors, to outside spaces. As a professional architectural photographer, my clients are typically pushed into niche design work, where much of their style and use of color and furnishings reappears time after time appearing in different projects. Ania is extremely talented in her design capabilities to be able to offer fresh offerings in each of 3 different design capacities that are both refreshing and the embodiment of a consummate professional.

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Michael, I'll work with you again and again, and in any city! I enjoyed our first photo shoot in Chicago, and I love working with you on the West Coast. Until we meet again!

Krueger & Company Inc

I have worked with Ania for quite a few years now on her own projects and it’s always been great! She has a great talent for working thru the design challenges and creatively solving any problem. She is good at compromise if the end result maintains the high level quality and design she’s after. I particularly appreciate her ability to work with old world and new world materials and combine them in unique and inspiring ways. Remodeling these older homes is a complicated process and she takes that challenge head on with relentless vigor, humor, and good nature! Without hesitation I totally recommend calling in her talents.

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Thank you Christopher! I had enjoyed working with you over the years and always appreciat your expertise when working with challenging spaces and materials. The outcome always surpassed my expectations.

Elizabeth King

We hired Orange Interiors to help us without our cabana. It was a great decision. Ania Talwar has impeccable taste and an ability to understand the wishes and expectations of her clients. She gives great advice and skillfully guides her clients through the decision making process. In addition to her excellent eye, Ania is practical and responsive. We now have a beautiful, functional living space thanks to the talents of Ania. We recommend her very, very highly!

Comment from Ania Omski-Talwar Interior Design:

Thank you Elizabeth, I'm so glad you're enjoying your outdoor space. It turned out beautifully and compliments your gorgeous backyard. It will be a spot where many family memories are made.

Kelly McCormick

Ania's work was stellar--she quickly helped us move our pool cabana from an empty shell to a wonderful space to spend time with family and friends. She listened attentively, gave us clear options, and helped us to make choices that were current, pleasing, practical., and cost effective. Most importantly, her design allowed for our cabana space to be a multi-functional exterior room with moveable pieces that allow the room to be easily modified for different types of entertaining and family uses. We appreciate her talents and thoroughly enjoyed working with her! Kelly and Elizabeth McCormick
