Design Alternatives

Simply, we could not have done this with out her! We wanted to restore the baths in our home to look as close to the 1913 originals as we could. This meant matching original subway and floor tile from one bathroom and having it installed in the new one. It took months of searching and ordering samples; but we did it! The relationships she has with contractors, suppliers and installers is invaluable. Her exuberance and passion for her job are infectious. One can be confident that under her cheerful exterior is someone who is in your corner when the need arises. This was a 5 month long restoration, at the end of it I considered her a friend.

We had a fabulous experience with Design Alternatives. Susan designed our kitchen and supervised its installation. It was a big and challenging project which involved completely gutting the outdated, ugly, and inefficient kitchen in our 70-year-old house and replacing it with a beautiful, modern, and efficient kitchen. Susan's expertise in selecting and planning everything from the cabinets and appliances on the walls to the flooring beneath and the light fixtures above was invaluable. Because of some odd layout issues in our older home, planning the cabinets required careful and precise measurements, sometimes down to a tiny fraction of an inch! Also, Susan's design ideas were very creative, including finding ways to maintain the special character of the home such as leaving the brick exposed on the back wall of the fireplace. She also has an excellent eye for color, texture, and pattern. It was a pleasure to work with Susan -- we enjoyed her enthusiasm and cheerfulness as well as her dedication to excellence. We highly recommend her for any type of kitchen or other home remodel project.
