Find a Interior Designer in Reston

Janet Aurora of Decor and You took a huge hodge-podge basement full of cast-offs, under utilized antiques, builder grade/selection paint and zero personality and transformed it into a welcoming, warm, personable, fun and useable place. The basement now has a comfortable media viewing area, an area that can be used for projects, an attractive and much needed storage wall (with a service bar), conversation/reading nook for 4, two tables that can seat 16 for dinner, AND it can all be transformed into a party area (in which we comfortably hosted 47 people last weekend). She did an excellent job of incorporating my "memory pieces" (quilts, family furniture) with fresh new ideas, furniture, colors and patterns.....all within my budget. On top of it all, Janet was a blast to work with and even managed to pull my reluctant husband into the fray with her good humor and her ability to read people. This was not a "here is my plan, this is the way it will be" type of experience. I felt my input was carefully listened to. At the same time, I was told what might work better than some of my ideas and why. (And she was right...I guess that is why she is the professional!) Finally, the installers, painters, and construction people that she used were all top notch and friendly. An excellent experience, sort of sorry it is all over.

Barbara Meyer did an outstanding job for me with my move from our single family home to o a condo in Reston, VA. Barbara has been consulting for me for decades and continues to be a trusted and talented design resource. My new condo had been a corporate rental and Barbara has worked with me to transform it into a lovely, warm and creative home environment. Beyond her design advice, Barbara referred me to experts in kitchen remodeling, bedroom spaces for my grandkids, and found an excellent art framer to turn an artistic table i made myself 50 years ago into a personal heirloom piece of art that will hang on my kitchen wall. Beyond her extensive expertise in design, Barbara brought her friendly and humorous nature into everything she did for me. I give her 5 Stars and recommend her highly!!! Lynne Revo-Cohen

You can tell when someone's whole heart is in their work

Extremely talented with everything you look for in a designer and more! Our experience with Shiva has been nothing short of exceptional. Her expertise, quality of work and eye for detail are evident everywhere and her creativity laid a consistent personality in our home. She was able to integrate our different opinions in one and execute it in the best way possible. Thank you so much for everything. We absolutely recommend Shiva to those who look for quality and excellence.

She is amazing, talented, dedicated and will give you a personalized attention and is not because she is my daughter in law. She have a lot of great qualities. Trust on his qualities and talented gifts. Blessings to her and her new blog on Instagram.
