Find a Interior Designer in California

It was truly a pleasure to work with Lauren Brandwein! She is highly creative and knowledgeable. She truly listened to our ideas for our dream kitchen and was also sensitive to our budget. Lauren not only designed a beautiful, functional kitchen for us, but guided us through and facilitated the entire project. She always made herself available when we had questions or when there were decisions to be made regarding details in the plan that we simply had not considered. We love our new kitchen and are inspired to remodel other spaces in our home and will definitley hire Lauren to design and facilitate those future projects!

We worked with Urrutia Design on a complete home renovation. Jason and Martha listened to our ideas and translated them into their design aesthetic. Their cohesive design runs throughout the entire house and they incorporated our family's specific needs resulting in a more usable, beautiful space. We are thrilled with our new home!

Fernando is a very talented interior designer. He designed and sourced materials for redesign of our master bathroom and updating our kitchen and family room. He worked tirelessly to bring my vision into reality. It has been a pleasure working with him.

I have been working with Carly for (I think) about 4 years and have just about completely gone through my home. It started with the kitchen and then rolled out to every other part of the house finishing in the master bedroom. When first getting together, she asked my wife and I what theme we would want. Then, with that understanding, very creatively began the process which has been exactly the outcome we were looking for. We are very pleased with her design and having seen her portofilo, know the extent of her talent. She can go in any direction. Additionally, she has a very professional network of folks (contractors) that she can competitively use to the homeowners advantage. Carly is very professional and talented and delivers exactly what is wanted. I Highly recommend her.

Sepideh and Mohammad are absolute gems! They were so patient throughout the entire process, really tuned in to all my preferences, inspirations, and even the tiniest details I cared about. They answered every question we had with such care. The design package they delivered? It was beyond complete—had everything I needed to style our home to perfection and gave our GC all the deets for the built-ins and light fixtures. Super meticulous and incredibly friendly—couldn't ask for better!

It was extremely helpful for my hubby and I to learn the pros and cons to get the best layout. The design is FABULOUS much better than expected. I will hire her again.

I found Sue on the Bark website. What a lucky find!! She managed our full kitchen remodel; layout & design. Her professionalism and attention to every detail is incredible. She walked us through the whole process and was completely on target throughout the complete design phase and made every step a seamless transition. Before I came across Sue, we had several other "designers" try to come up with a floor plan (which includes a very difficult space) - or so we thought - because they didn't solve our space issue. We were seriously considering not moving forward with the remodel. That is until Sue came along. Sue was the only one who absolutely "got it" right at the start! I just can't say enough about her! We are starting the construction phase in early January 2025, but Sue has our design plans completely dialed in and ready for our contractor! She has been available every time I've called about various questions and she is super responsive and knowledgeable about all issues relating to remodeling of any kind! We hope to use her on other projects in the future. I plan to post pics after the project is complete, but Sue has been absolutely amazing! A++

Melanie thinks outside the box and has creative and flexible ideas. Her style is eclectic and fun, unpretentious yet chic.

I love the professionalism and creative team that they offer! They made my process comfortable and stress free.

I have known Design Collective SF for more than a decade and they are my go-to professionals when I have renovated my home. Their knowledge on materials and design is so unique. What I love the most is that they are great listeners, able to capture one's needs and transform it into beautiful warm living spaces.

Dar has designed several homes for me over the years and his work has been impeccable! One of the recent homes included every room and exterior. He is an absolute professional with an extraordinary talent for design. Every detail has been considered and he is conscientious about finishing on time and within budget. Dar had a solution for all of the issues that came up in the design projects. His resources proved to be curated and only a few real designers have resources like Dar has.

Arash Ghiasi is a gifted designer and a pleasure to work with. He is creative, knowledgeable, and detail oriented. My home was a mish mash of different furniture styles and colors, stained carpet, and faded paint. I hired him to completely revamp my home, including kitchen and bathroom design and remodeling, new lighting, fresh paint and flooring throughout the home, and new furniture, accent pieces, and artwork throughout, and he orchestrated everything from design to installation brilliantly. He selected paint colors, furniture, flooring, unique accent pieces, and artwork that work together beautifully. He has an acuity for understanding the way colors, shapes, textures, and patterns will function together to create a beautiful space. While he is able to see the “big picture” when designing a space, he hones in on details too. In addition to his creative design expertise, he also dealt with the business side of hiring and managing the contractors and coordinating all aspects of the installation. He handled any issues that arose - for example, one piece of furniture arrived damaged, and he handled the return and replacement so that I didn’t have to deal with it. He made sure the contractors’ work was perfect and held them to high standards. When any issues came up with contractors, furniture delivery, etc. Arash always advocated for me, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. Arash is also kind, patient, and personable with a great sense of humor, and he communicates effectively with clients, contractors, and retailers alike. If you are looking for an experienced and talented design professional who is great to work with, Arash is it. Because of his expertise, I now have the home I’ve always dreamed of!

Nina is professional, resourceful and creative.  She knows the various trades and how to work with them.  She has done work for us at our home and most recently at my work/business.  I am SO pleased and get tons of compliments - Nina has the experience, understands current trends and has the knowledge needed for all size projects.  Will use her again and again!

Michelle did it again. We needed to pick out new dining chairs and she was able to help us pick the perfect style for the room with the quality we were looking for at the price we wanted to pay. I know sounds too good to be true. We also paid her an hourly fee to help us move some art around ...

Megan was a pleasure to work with. She is a great communicator and took the time to get to know my tastes. The design project was finished on time and under budget. I love the new look of my home. The colors are vibrant and the decor reflects my style exactly. Megan is indeed a consummate professional. I spoke to several designers before Megan and she impressed me with her straightforward manner and non pretentions attitude as well as her thorough knowledge of her field. She is easy to work with and I have recommended her to all my friends and colleagues.

AMAZING DESIGNER!!! There are honestly not enough words to describe how amazing Bethan is as a designer and person. She helped me design a memory wall in honor of my father who has recently passed away. The end product is better than I envisioned and I couldn't be happier! Bethan brought a lot of interesting perspective while also honoring my personal design aesthetic. She is incredibly professional and very open to feedback and changes. She is also very collaborative and encouraged inputs and ideas to help make sure the design is everything that I had envisioned. Bethan always made herself available and was very responsive to questions/texts/call. She went above and beyond helping making the design perfect and I am so very appreciative. I plan to have Bethan help me design other parts of my house and would HIGHLY recommend her for any project.
