Find a Commercial Interior Designer in Daly City

Michael, Michael, Michael. Can't live with him, can't live without him. (In a good way!) I met Michael through a mutual client whose house he decorated and I absolutely fell in love with his aesthetic. Modern, yet cozy... elegant, yet hip... but ultimately immaculate. Fast forward a year later, I look to opening my new nail salon in Jack London Square, called Rock & Polish. (Yes, shameless plug!) I knew what I wanted, but didn't know how to achieve it. I knew I loved organic items, wood, polished cement, I loved the masculine design yet with the perfect feminine touches. Michael was kind enough to spend the time with me really understanding my taste, my vision, my wants, & my desires of how I wanted the salon to look. I wanted it too look like no other nail salon anyone had seen before. He took my hand and guided me through the process. Picking out wallpapers, paint colors, artwork, furniture. I will say, sometimes you've got to just blindly trust him. As a self-confessed control freak, it was hard, but I'm so SO glad that I did. Michael's eye for details and perfection and absolutely exquisite taste makes you feel like a million bucks. He stayed within my color palette and understood working with a budget, but he made it happen. There were moments in the process where I'm pretty sure I had an ulcer from worry and relinquishing control of my project, but the moment it all came together, I knew it was perfect. I couldn't have asked for more. Thank you Michael Friedes, along with your team, Halley, Anna, Ann, & anyone else I may have missed. xoxo Hire MFDA, you'll be so happy you did.

Congratulations on the opening of Delf Home. I have one of Brent Delf’s wood pieces from years ago and I love it. The design is just different enough to be interesting and it’s beautifully made.

I have worked with Kathleen Monroe on multiple residential projects, and have been very satisfied with the results. Her expertise has been instrumental in bringing out a high sense of quality and style. Her skill with color and materials selection is excellent. She is a delight to work with, very flexible, and well worth the cost. I highly recommend Kathleen Monroe Design.

We have had the opportunity to work with Clarice Annegers several times. Clarice is a creative, professional, and fun designer which makes her really great to work with. She not only has a ton of great and creative ideas, but she also took the time to get to know me and my family to truly understand our needs and wishes. For every project we worked on together, she presented me with several options and continued to iterate until I was thrilled with the outcome. She always took the time to answer all of my questions, brainstorm additional ideas, and simply to check in. Clarice is extremely professional, always on time, and very flexible.

This was not only an excellent product, but just an overall great buying experience.My sofa arrived last week, and everything was perfect. It was high quality, excellent craftsmanship, sized exactly as I specified, and even the delivery company was very good (they put on brand new gloves to move the couch in order to avoid putting smudge marks on the white fabric). I also ordered the trillium pillows, which offer great texture and feel. Lisa B from Benchmade was also instrumental in helping me out. I originally wanted to get a 100 inch sofa, but she suggested I take measurements at my condo to ensure it would fit through the hallways. Turns out it would not have made it past the hallways! I ended up getting a sectional with bumper and it was the perfect compliment to the rest of the living room. She also made suggestions on size and proportions of the couch, and it turned out great. For a custom couch, their pricing was on the mark. Plus, with a custom couch, its kind of nice knowing there's not another out there like mine (of course, unless they order the same dimensions and style :).They have a 100-day guarantee, but I don't foresee me exercising that option.I would be remiss if I didn't offer some constructive criticism. In terms of what can be improved, and here are my two cents:1. Have a physical showroom. While their online platform is a lot better than other online stores (e.g. printouts, swatches, choose your size scenarios, etc.), there is nothing quite like actually seeing (and feeling) the furniture firsthand. Of course, this boils down to a financial decision, and as a start up, it might not be financially feasible.2. They have almost too many fabric and color choices to choose from. I know some people would like this, but for me, too many options led to the "paradox of choice" -- too much to choose from and I had a hard time making a decision (literally took me 3 weeks to choose the final color).3. Wish they had better real time order status updates. Like many others, I was very anxious to get my couch and wanted to see where it was in the production chain. Not a big deal, but I would have really enjoyed real-time status updates just so I can plan ahead. Or maybe I'm just being very picky.

Nothing but a great experience working with Downs Design Group. Joey has a great eye for aesthetics, color, balance, and functionality. He is attentive to details, listens to clients and makes you feel comfortable with your choices. He is a pleasure to work with and I've been recommending him without any reservations.
