Interior Designer reviews across the US

We worked with Oleg Tsoi for our new full kitchen redesign and the experience was overwhelmingly satisfactory from our first meeting until last day of installation. Oleg has an incredible eye for design and he completely gave us an out of the box solution to our historic home kitchen renovation project, giving it a mix of traditional and modern look: We are beyond happy with the final product. Siematic kitchens and accessories are of high quality, and only a great designer can exploit the functionality of a kitchen like this. Thank you!

My wife and I had our home on Cape Cod fully reconfigured and remodeled in 2025. We had SieMatic design their SLX product line into our kitchen and dining areas. We could not be more pleased and ecstatic.

The product: I have been well-familiar with the brand and products of SieMatic (as well as several other German manufacturers) for more than 30 years. However, I was not aware of the superiority of the design and manufacture of the components, as well as the quality of the materials used, in comparison to SieMatic’s competitors. I urge prospective customers to go and examine SieMatic’s materials, as well as their competitors’. (As a reference, I have spent a career internationally in low- and high-tech industrial manufacturing.)

The people: We had the fortune and pleasure of meeting and working with Mr. Michael Tcherniavski of SieMatic Boston. As an experienced designer, he listened to us and heard us. He studied the spaces of our home thoughtfully. He did not provide cookie-cutter solutions to design (as a previously-employed competitor had). He understood, and made sure we understood, both the limitations of our space and the opportunities. He created exactly what we had envisioned … and more, that we couldn’t haven’t envisioned without him. As a project manager, he established a timeline and did not deviate one iota. He coordinated and corralled other parties ( a. the independent installers of the SieMatic product who were absolutely excellent; b. the supposed “premier” GC of Cape Cod we employed who proved to be difficult and lacking; c. appliance providers) with skill and finesse. Both Michael and the independent installers of the SieMatic product knew the components and process inside and out. Installed SieMatic product was damaged by our GC and Michael responded with immediate solutions without a blink.

We also had the pleasure of meeting a few times with Mr. Hans Henkes – President & CEO, SieMatic Möbelwerke USA. When my wife and I decided to abandon a competitor’s lazy design, a mutual contact connected Hans and me. Hans put me in touch with Michael, who executed at all levels. Hans remained informed on our project from beginning to end.

I could not more emphatically endorse, SieMatic… its people, professionalism, products, quality, design, management, and overall experience should be exactly what one expects when choosing a luxury kitchen from a brand closing in on 100 years of experience. SieMatic delivers on all levels!

Fantastic interior designer!!! She was referred to me by a close friend and colleague whose office was designed by her. She had done an amazing job there and did the same at my office. I could not be any happier.

The layout was completely changed to give us a functional kitchen--placement of appliances and sufficient space for "traffic. Working with cabinet company to accommodate for all kinds of storage space. Lighting above the cabinets are an added feature, which we love. Bita's bold suggestion to expand our kitchen window has brought in so much light and have added beauty to our kitchen. We also love the split level island.

Bita has designed two residential projects for me. Her work is excellent, and I recommend her company to anyone who is looking for an artistic touch with attention to detail within any size budget.

Bita, you simply amazing! Thank you for your patience, attention to details, accomadations and kindness. I look forward to working with soon on other projects. She is great and created an amazing space for my clinic!

We hired Bita Salehi (iidesign) to design the space for our Neurology practices. She was so helpful from start to finish and we were extremely impressed with the work she did for us. She took care of all the arrangements such as, drawing up the office layout and picking out art and images for the walls. She would listen carefully to what we wanted for the space such as color, lay out and functionality needs. She designed the space with professionalism in mind. Most recently, we had a small office with 5 rooms, a waiting area and a front desk area to work on. We wanted the office space to feel open and inviting to our patients but also to be functional for our everyday work. She made some fantastic suggestions to work with specific colors and materials in order to make the space feel larger and sophisticated. She handled everything from start to finish which made the challenging process seem effortless.

Bita goes above and beyond for her clients and has a gift for taking our ideas and vision and making sure we got exactly what we wanted and needed from the space. We were immensely impressed by her extensive design and architectural knowledge as well as her creative thinking. She was easy to work with and was always very professional in her communication with us. We felt seen and heard during each interaction with her. We always felt comfortable in sharing our ideas with her and were confident in her ability to execute our vision. Her attention to detail shows she takes pride in her work and will give any project her upmost effort and attention. Overall, our office looks great and they are exactly what we wanted. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to start a project from scratch or to just get an insightful, new perspective on a space. We will certainly work with her in the future for any of our design needs for our office.

Working with Bita at ii Design Studio was a pleasure. She addressed all our needs and cooperated very well until the end. We are very pleased with the result. Highly recommended.

Bita helped us to renovate and decorate our whole house over a few months. Her sense of style and creative mind transformed my house. Bita's organizational skills and attention to detail were superior. Bita communicated effectively with me and the contractors via email, texts, and phone calls. My family and I love our newly transformed house. I highly recommend ii Design Studio, you will be impressed by Bita’s professionalism.

Bita is a talented, dedicated and organized designer. She did a great job on our salon & spa interior design and finishes; she goes beyond her client's expectation because she loves what she does!

I had a major and complicated residential renovation with lots of moving parts (Core Drilling, Limited Options due to a Complex Plumbing Drain Dependent on a Commercial Neighbor, Electrical Panel Upgrade, Washington DC City Permits, Condo Board Approvals, A "Not So Capable General Contractor", etc...)

Bita from ii Design Studio was highly recommended by my Architect. Few minutes into our initial meeting, I was sold based on her level of professionalism, creativity, attentiveness and energy. Through out the project we exchanged 252 emails, countless text messages in addition to her timely in-person visits. I always felt I have her full and undivided attention. During the process, she refined the architectural plan, defined all finishes and incorporated all of our living space requirements. Her fees were absolutely reasonable. I recommend her services without any reservations. Thank You Bita for making this challenging project a success!

We have worked with ii Design on multiple projects, both commercial and residential. I would recommend Bita and her firm to anyone looking for a skilled design partner. Your project will be the better for it. Her work is excellent. Concept planning, design development, office flow planning, selection of furniture, finishes and accessories.....ii Design will help you make the most out your space.

We had a wonderful experience working with Ms. Bita for our remodel project of our dental office. Her work consisted of coming out to our location, taking measurements and giving us input on how our space could better be improved all while helping keeping in mind our budget. As you know in design, the sky is the limit with costs and she did a very good job of helping us renovate our space with a complete revamp all while maintaining our budget and vision. We let her know what we wanted with this project and she gave us options and guidance based on her experience on how things could be done from lighting, the store front, color scheme to furniture. She is very responsive and came out to visit the space anytime we needed. This is our fourth location and we will be using her for our future projects! Highly recommend ii design, you will not be disappointed:)

Bita is a consummate professional. She has deep knowledge of the many facets design and how they all integrate. She brought incredible expertise to our project and ensured that *everything* works together. We relied on her 100%.

Bita was completely committed to our project and went above and beyond on many occasions. I would happily work with Bita again and again!

Bita Salehi is by far the best interior designer I have ever worked with. She has excellent taste in colors, designs, and creates work atmospheres that are comfortable, functional, and amazingly beautiful. Bita completed four large projects for our offices and we have received hundreds of compliments from our patients regarding her work. Other businesses in our buildings come to our offices just to take pictures and try to replicate what Bita has created for us. She is also very mindful of a project's costs and always stays within the budget. Her fees are quite reasonable and I always feel like I am getting a bargain.
Bita always goes out of her way to make sure her clients are 100% satisfied. She shows up on time and finishes her projects on schedule.
I give Bita and ii Design Studio my higher level of recommendation.

We moved into a home built in the 90's. It was underpriced (thanks to the aging decor) and on a great lot, but there was a lot of work to do to bring it up to our standards. The idea of researching vendors, contractors and picking out finishes became an overwhelming reality soon after moving in. I felt paralyzed and stuck. I knew I needed help and reached out to Julee and her team. She came in to my home and immediately took over and I never lifted a finger again. My efforts amounted to oohing and aahing over swatches and samples with a simple yes or no. That's it. We completely gutted most of our first floor, moved walls, plumbing and even replaced a support beam. No small task. Everything was done to the highest standards and now that it is complete, it is nothing short of amazing. My once dated house with "orange" stained wood and a huge wet bar (hard to believe these were ever cool) looks like something out of a magazine or a high end model home. I love being in it and I can't wait for phase 2. If my master bedroom and bath turn out as well, I don't think I'll ever leave home again. Do yourself a favor and skip the headaches... just call Julee.

Julee Jordening-Wray of Truss Interiors completed a renovation of our unoccupied condominium in March 2020 to create a more contemporary look for our unit. The renovation entailed repair work, re-painting, re-carpeting, replacing fixtures and installation of new lighting throughout. Her design and color scheme lightened up the entire space and accentuated the soaring windows and 20 foot ceilings overlooking the city of Denver. Despite the ongoing pandemic, she was able to coordinate all the workmen and delivered the remodeling project on time and on budget. Her knowledge and expertise were very apparent in choosing professional workers. She also communicated with us in a timely manner throughout the entire process, and carefully followed all the rules and guidelines required of the high-rise building. We highly recommend Julee Gardening-Wray as a designer and remodeling manager.

Identifying a deciding to work with a designer can be daunting “ do they understand you, your vision, timeline and budget” ?
Julee’s guidance and input hit the nail on all points. She was not only tremendously insightful, she made the process so much easier; I mean…I don’t gut rooms everyday….. so it can be intimidating.
Julie always found me options to choose from with no pressure; at let me say there is always so many design options it can be difficult to make final decisions. I mean, you want to get it right.

However, what sets Julee apart is that her key motivator and thought was always – “I want you to be ecstatic with your final decisions”. She was very professional but made me laugh on days I needed it… I mean , there were days my husband and I were not on the same page. She did do some “counseling” ha and very well I might add!
Over all , If you feel like you don’t need a designer ; and you can do it yourself; please think again. I was happy to have the professional and core competencies she brought to make my home absolutely beautiful.
I would highly recommend and getting ready to do some more rooms with her soon.

Julie and her team redesigned and remodeled the entire first floor of our house, including family room, kitchen, laundry room, and living room/dining room, and we could not be more pleased with the results. The process she used for space planning and interior design was very much guided by our tastes and preferences. As a result, the end product is 100 percent aligned with our tastes, but far more ‘complete’ and ‘polished’ than we could have achieved alone. Our house feels more like “home” today than when we started.

We could not have been happier with the construction team that Julie brought to work on our project - Woods Remodeling. They were trustworthy, detail-oriented, kept us appraised of the job status all through the process, and were thorough in their explanations of unexpected changes and additions to the original scope of work. They even played with our young children and dog periodically 😀

We will be remodeling the other parts of our home in the coming years and will definitely use Truss Interiors when we begin this work.

Julee at Truss Interiors transformed our dull, unfinished living area into a beautiful and functional space for our family to enjoy for years to come. She has an incredible ability to conceptualize a space’s potential and help bring it to life! We were amazed by her vision which included an entirely new layout that completely changed the way that we use our main floor; we now have a spacious dining area for indoor/outdoor living, a gorgeous sitting/reading area in front of a refaced and updated fireplace, and a perfect play space for our young toddler. She even managed to fit in a new music area, all while still making the whole space seem larger and more open than before. We NEVER could have come up with these changes on our own, much less decorated the space with a variety of vintage accessories, gorgeous lighting, and carefully-selected furniture and art. Julee took the time during our initial consultation to really listen to us and understand our goals for the renovation. She has transformed our home to create a more relaxing, functional, and BEAUTIFUL space that we look forward to coming home to each day. We cannot recommend Julee and her team at Truss Interiors highly enough, and hope to work with her again soon on other projects.

Julee is truly one of the most dedicated, passionate, detail-oriented people you will meet.  She designed our full basement remodel with ease and turned it into a highly functional and beautiful space.

It's refreshing to work with a designer that not only listens to what you want and need, but offers recommendations to help save you time and money.  My husband is a big DIY kind of guy and she has been very open to his input.

Not only is Julee reliable, but so are the vendors she chooses to work with.  It's comforting to know all individuals involved are dependable and experts at their craft.  The ball will not be dropped on her watch!

I highly recommend using Julee for any project you have.  She is worth every penny!!!
