What clients are saying...

"I had the privilege to work with Shashana on several designs as we slowly build our custom home. I love her creativity and the professionalism and kindness with which she approaches her projects. - "

Scarlett Anderson

"Shashana and her design team did an incredible job with my home. The interior designs I ended up with were above and beyond expectation and I could not be happier with the end result. Not to mention, the entire design and install process was easy, professional, and modernized. Claire Darson"

Claire Darson

"Working with Shashana on a massive remodel project was a truly positive experience. Her professionalism, communication, and attention to detail were outstanding. She consistently kept us informed of project progress, addressed our concerns promptly, and always went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. The final design was not only beautiful but also highly functional, exceeding our expectations. We highly recommend Shashana to any contractor looking for a talented and reliable interior designer. Her firm is a one stop for all as she can do both architectural and design features, which saved our company so much time and money."

Edwin Rejer

"In November of 2024 we bought a 20 plus year old house in the heart of Richmond that needed a whole house remodel...meaning new floors, knocking out walls, redoing the kitchen, etc. By way of background, my wife and I are not rookies when it comes to projects like this, we have done many whole house remodels, gutting houses down to the studs in some cases as well as buying land and building from scratch. In our past projects we have been fortunate to find great contractors who worked with skilled designers and then finally interior designers to assist with furniture layout, etc. Shashana does all of these things and more. She worked with us from the very beginning with the construction drawings, to picking out every last detail. Flooring, paint, cabinets...everything! She is by far and away the most skilled , talented person we have ever worked with...she quickly "got us." Without Shashana, our house would have turned out OK....with Shashana our house is amazing. These types of projects are expensive, making a mistake is very costly, Shashana will keep you from making mistakes. Whatever her fees are its worth every penny to make sure your investment turns out right."
