Featured Reviews for Interior Designers & Decorators in San Marcos, CA

Vanessa Foley Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in San Marcos, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 October 2022
“We have worked with Vanessa for several years, room by room (living room, family room, kitchen nook, guest room and master bedroom) redesigning and upgrading our home. Vanessa is a wonderful designer - she was able to get a bead very quickly on what I wanted, our style and the need to accommodate a rough and tumble household full of boys. She brought fresh ideas, translated our ideas and coalesced everything into coordinated design choices . . . but not too many which can be overwhelming. Vanessa is also an excellent communicator, kept us apprised of status, followed up when she needed information, always with a smile on her face. We couldn't be more pleased with Vanessa's partnership and we would definitely work with her again and again.”

“I knew I wanted my home to finally look good after such a long time sitting with bare walls and furniture that wasn’t “me.” I found Michelle and although I never saw myself as someone who could afford a designer, I instantly felt at ease with her and knew that I made a decision I only wish I had made long ago!! Michelle is super professional and uber talented. Within a few short meetings and quick screen shares, she blew me away with how much she KNEW my styles and preferences. I was able to then sit back and watch my space transform into a dream house. I am so excited to have people over now, whereas before I’d feel self conscious. My house is now an extension of me and my style. She took pieces I already had and loved in my home and elevated them to a new level, while bringing in a mix of new and old that gave me one of those “Pinterest worthy” homes. Highly highly recommended. Can’t wait for my best project with her!!”

Wanderlust Home Interiors Inc.
Interior Designers & Decorators in San Marcos, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 September 2020
“I can't say enough awesome things about Wanderlust Home Interiors. When COVID 19 hit in the Spring, like many working mom's I became home office bound indefinitely. To say that my home office space looked like a messy college dorm room is an understatement. It was crowded and disorganized and I lacked the creativity to make it look better. I needed design help. That is when Katie and her team stepped in. Katie completely redesigned the space, curated some beautiful pieces (i.e. furniture, artwork) and she made it very affordable! The entire feel of the room is so relaxing, bright and open now. I feel so much more productive now sitting at my desk. And, she did all of this virtually! This space is now my favorite room in the house! Katie is extremely talented and works within your budget. If you are looking for a complete redesign of any room in your house or just some simple design suggestions, check out Wanderlust Home Interiors!”

“I first hired Mark Stocker to help design portions of my home. I was so delighted - - he was able to intuitively grasp exactly what I was looking for. I recently moved and Mark is again helping me, but this time with an entire remodel & design. Mark has fabulous taste and his professionalism is so appreciated. I can't recommend him enough! PS My new renovation is expected to be completed in May, 2020.”
Savvy Interiors
Interior Designers & Decorators in San Marcos, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 January 2013
“I cannot say enough good things about Savvy Interiors. I bought a house two years ago that I took from completely tuscan to completely transitional with the help of Susan and her team. They have the ability to make your "dream board" come to life! Susan is a master at mixing and matching prints, colors and textures. She has incredible resources for custom furnishings and build ins... all within budget. I am so proud of my house, and I get compliments from all my guests. This should say it all: I took pictures of my interior design to a favorite store and asked them to provide a wardrobe that complimented my house!”
