Downsizing Services in Madison, CT

“Jonathan took the vision I had for our living room and made it a reality. He shared his tips and introduced us to local antique shops and professionals. Old furniture touched up and reupholstered along with unique touches, like Moroccan window screens as valances, make the room feel personal and inviting. I would work with Jonathan again and recommend him in a heartbeat.”

“We worked with Hartley & Hill Design to completely renovate and redesign our kitchen last summer. They were fantastic and we cannot say enough about how wonderful they were. We met with them and described the concepts that we wanted (functional and classic, keeping in mind that we like to entertain, but we have small children and a busy family life). They put together the design and sat down with us to explain their ideas very thoroughly and also run through the budget. They came up with a fantastic design that we never would have thought possible, incorporating very creative ideas, while still keeping in mind our budget as well as our personal preferences. It was a very collaborative process, with us being as involved as we wanted to be, but not feeling like we had to manage a project; they expertly managed the project for us! All of the subcontractors they hired were first class. The renovation was very well organized, there was consistent open communication, any hiccups along the way (as will happen in any project this size) were managed smoothly and effectively. Needless to say, we are thrilled with the end result. We can't wait to use them again soon to redesign our dining room/living room area. We would highly recommend them!”

“This is a great designer. She has wonderful ideas, color concepts and fantastic subcontractors. She is timely, conscientious and fantastic to work with. I would recommend her for projects large and small, commercial or residential.”

“Christie is knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to work with. She helped me choose paint colors, fabrics, sofas, coffee tables, lamps and more for my mid-century modern home. I wanted to keep it simple, but warm and colorful. Christie struck just the right chord. She also introduced me to sources for furnishings that I would not have known about on my own and saved me from costly mistakes and do-overs. If you can find the right designer, your home will come together more easily. I feel so lucky to have found Christie.”

“Jen of JKate Designs recently decorated our income property in Ortley Beach, NJ. She selected paint colors, furniture, accessories and created layouts. She was easy to work with and talk to about likes and dislikes. She worked within our budget and the entire process was smooth. This house was an interesting challenge, as she had to work around some existing decor/furniture, that maybe we both would not normally have selected on our own, but it came with the house and we did not want to get rid of it all. She selected items/colors so that together, the "old" and new have created a beautiful, timeless look.The outcome is stunning and we could not be happier! The property has been listed for rent for about 2 weeks and we already have 5 summer weeks rented. we are convinced it's the decor and could not have done it without her. We are looking forward to our next project together.”

“Anna is a good listener, makes you feel very comfortable and easy to talk about ideas if you are unsure of what you wantand, at the same time adds her good ideas! The choice of colors, style and texture made my home exactly how I wanted, but I did not know how to get there. She has an easy going team of contractors that also works hard and on time.

“Iris knew eaxctly how we wanted our house to look like. She was very quick and knowledgeable. She has great style and is a pleasure to work with.”

“I called on Eclectic Design to design and install window treatments in my new office. I also asked them to arrange and hang wall art. The work was completed on time and on budget. The window treatments are just gorgeous and give my office an upscale and very professional look. Working with Laurene is wonderful experience. She consulted and collaborated with me through the entire process. In addition to being conscious of my budget, she really understands who I am as a person, as well as my business's brand. All of this is reflected in the final result. I couldn't be more pleased. My clients and other professional visitors to my office are impressed too! I highly recommend Eclectic Design Inc. for ANY interior design work, whether it's a personal home or commercial space. You will be as ecstatic as I am!”

“Barbara has a masterful way with colors and textures. She can identify your desires and then turns those ideas into something truly imaginative and unique. Stays on top of the manufacturers so that your furniture or fabrics or rugs is delivered as soon as possible. She is genuine, honest to a fault, and generous with her time.”

“I've worked with Kristen on several design projects in my home and she consistently over-delivers on offering great advice and creative solutions. Kristen always listens to ensure she understands what I'm trying to achieve, then provides the right balance of guidance and direction to find the right solution for each individual challenge. She is extremely responsive, accurate and we always have a good time. Kristen delivers great customer service as well. Even if I don't have an "active" project in the works, she will share ideas and inspiration on a regular basis. I always love seeing her emails pop up in my inbox! I highly recommend Kristen!!”
