I have had the pleasure of working with Sarahliz in two professional environments, an architectural firm and a resort development company and have always been incredibly impressed with her poise, creativity and professionalism. She has an amazing rapport with her clients and is able to effortlessly channel their goals and ideas into beautiful and inspiring spaces. Sarahliz is very easy and enjoyable to collaborate and I only wish she was closer to us so we could work together on something in Asheville! I would highly recommend her to clients and other professionals!

We were referred to Sarahliz when we began interviewing general contractors for our project two years ago. From our very first meeting, she created a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. She is a highly sought after designer, yet she was very simple and maintained a positive outlook throughout the project. Her eye for excellence and timeless design concepts were effortlessly reflected in our new kitchen and family room. In addition to her interior design work for our transitional kitchen, she also guided our architect on the layout of the windows to bring out the best natural settings. She was always patient and encouraging even in the face of our various design challenges, especially during the pandemic. Our favorite part of her design is the stunning custom zinc and stainless steel kitchen hood, which is the central focus of our kitchen. We also love the proportions in the layout of our kitchen cabinets and the marble countertop. We would love to work again with Sarahliz on our next project and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great designer!

We recently renovated our house using Sarahliz Lawson Designs. She was amazing! She very quickly understood our budget, lifestyle and aesthetic and created beautiful plans for our remodel. She tailored her design to fit both our design needs and the existing structure turning our house into a beautiful, peaceful and functional space. I am amazed at how she transformed the previously cramped, tight kitchen into our huge kitchen + nook where we spend all of our family meals. We also complete redid the existing bathroom and added a new master bath and master closet. The master bath is amazing! She chose all of the tile, fixtures, lighting, countertops and vanities. Everything looks fantastic. We have been in the house for about 4 months now and I still smile every time a take a shower or cook a meal. Sarahliz and her team were very responsive and easy to work with. She always had a few options if budget was a consideration. I highly recommend Sarahliz Lawson Design for your next project.

Sarahliz Lawson Design helped us fully furnish our new home in Carmel, CA. The project included rugs, window coverings, lighting, and furniture. Sarahliz is a first-rate professional with an impressive eye for detail, color, contrast, blending of elements, and has a superb, modern take. The result was sophisticated, welcoming and beautiful. She and her talented team have a wonderful design imagination, listen carefully to input, and are committed to getting it right. I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to work with Sarahliz, and give her and her company an unqualified recommendation. Nancy Beaulieu

Sarahliz and team were terrific and instrumental in helping me design comprehensive interior plans based on basic architectural plans for building a new home in Atherton, CA. She demonstrated an amazing ability to understand the vision of 'home' that I wanted and set about visualizing and iterating together very patiently. Very excited about the seamless chic approach and design ethos that shows up in the elegance of all ceiling designs, big windows, bath areas and open living spaces of my home. Very flexible with 'can do' attitude around navigating and adapting with a number of creative and exciting options around design and material choices. Strongly recommend if you are looking for a 'design' partner on your house project that will bring in a fresh, pragmatic perspective while aligning with your budget plans.

Sarahliz was amazing to work with. She really understood our point of view and was able to identify interior finishes and help with exterior as well. I am so glad we worked with her. I can't imagine taking on a complete remodel without her invaluable support and guidance, and we are SO thrilled with the results.

Sarahliz Lawson Design led all of the design elements of my home build - a new construction 2-story plus basement modern home with a pool. They were the champions of our project - we're extremely happy with our home and attribute that success to SLD. SLD design/lay-out for all key spaces (kitchen, living, bathrooms) was impeccable, meaning every inch of our space is optimized/usable. They sourced perfect options for lighting, tiles, flooring, windows, doors, furniture, appliances, soft goods/decor ... everything. Every inch of the house feels perfectly appointed and carefully tailored to our style. There were countless cases where SLD's creativity got us out of binds - for example, accent wall re-design and sourcing when we preferred to reduce cost of the original design, built in media center re-design when venting needs forced down-scaling. We relied on SLD for everything and heavily trusted in their judgment throughout the project. Can't recommend Sarahliz and her team enough!

Sarahliz is a talented and very capable designer. She sees the customers needs as well as listening to their desires. She helped us navigate through some difficult decisions when in the process of remodeling our family room-kitchen area. We had wonderful results, and would choose to select her services again if the need should arise.

Sarahliz is amazing! From the start of our remodel in 2014/15 in Los Gatos, Ca, she guided large and small decisions with professional perfection. Our home remodel included moving walls, vaulting ceilings, coffering others, added french doors among an entire interior redo. She walked me through every decision to create balance and flow, all while making sure it was what we wanted. Our home is amazing, the kitchen gorgeous! I highly recommend her and her team!!!

Sarahliz designed our new construction home in Los Altos. She is super talented and has a great eye for tasteful design. She is flexible, listened to what we wanted, and did a great job incorporating our wishlist into the final product. There were some challenging areas in the project that several other designers have struggled with, and Sarahliz did a wonderful job with them. I really appreciated her professionalism and organization, which really stood out against the other designers I've worked with. All in all, really happy with Sarahliz, and my only regret is that we didn't use her for more parts of the project!

I have worked with Sarahliz Lawson Design on eight projects over the past five years. Sarahliz and her team are thoroughly professional, knowledgeable and always a pleasure to collaborate with. Sarahliz is calm, focused and organized, a real plus in the chaotic world of remodeling. Sarahliz and her design team understand and value “Team Collaboration” between homeowner/designer/contractor. They listen and care about the needs of our clients. We will continue to work with Sarahliz Lawson Design for years to come and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an outstanding design firm.
