“Working with Christina was a collaborative and creative dream. She helped design an incredibly beautiful and functional home for us in midcoast Maine. She is truly an architectural designer doing floor plans, window design, millwork design, and anything else we needed. She worked with our budget, helped keep us on track, and did construction administration to ensure the design was implemented properly. She took the time to really get to know our family to be able to design something that fits our needs. I would work with her again in a heartbeat. She is an incredibly talented and kind woman.”

“Just wow! It is no understatement to say that working with Christina changed my life, and of course, my house. She was the quintessential professional and a joy to work with. She made me feel like I was a priority, she listened, responded promptly to emails, phone calls and texts, and stayed under budget! She brilliantly reconfigured my small kitchen, and came up with the idea of adding a mudroom to overhaul our entry area, which came out beautifully . Her skills and the final product exceeded expectations. I used to dread walking into my kitchen. Now, it is my favorite area of the house. I recommend her for any design project and will be working with her on the rest of my house.”

“Christina has been a joy to work with. Warm yet very professional, engaging, a very talented eye for furnishings, fabrics, hard & soft goods. She brings it all together beautifully. We were so happy with her work & the outcome that we have now involved her in two additional projects and have recommended her to a number of friends. I'm happy to provide personal references on her work. Really top notch and a rare find.”

“Christina is talented, professional, and, above all, a joy to work with. We worked with Christina on a gut renovation to the first floor of our 60 year old, traditional four square colonial. She does it all: from designing the kitchen, great room and family room built-ins, bathroom vanities, to carefully advising on paint selection, and hardware details; she is invaluable. Most importantly, she listened to what our goals were for the use of each room, and the styles we like, at the same time tactfully sharing her wise design advice to keep us from making big and small mistakes. She worked well with all the craftsmen and the builder and was a valued member of our team.

Now, we are working with her on furniture and window treatments. She will do as much, or as little, as you like.
My only regret is that we should have brought her into the project a little earlier, at the architectural design stage. She also saved us money on a number of decisions. Her business model of straight hourly billing, no markups on products, and passing on her designer discounts, made her service costs controllable and transparent. You cannot go wrong hiring Christina.”

“My husband and I learned about Christina from our lighting designer, during the building of our house. Christina was a savior-and we were so lucky to be able to get her onto our project and at a pivotal point, as she managed to correct design errors made by a contractor who we ultimately let go. That is when I realized Christina could have designed the house in the first place but I did not know her at that point, regrettably. Christina made our house beautiful. She has an incredible eye, and her decisions were just wonderful, from the paint colors throughout the house, counter tops, the backsplash of our stove, art choices, lighting fixtures, and décor arrangement. I noticed how carefully she makes each decision. She can do it all, perfectly. She designed numerous built in book shelves and worked with a carpenter to install them. In addition, Christina was able to work with all members of the building team in a consistently professional and fruitful way. For our kitchen islands and a very large built in book case that spans an entire high ceilinged wall, she decided to work with a specialized carpenter and together created perfectly fitting pieces. She worked tirelessly on our project with our best interests in mind. Christina’s presence significantly reduced our anxiety during construction, and her training and talent as a designer, her personality, work ethic, trustworthiness, and commitment to the project made Christina an invaluable asset to the final product we now call home!
We admire her decisions every day we live in this house. thank you Christina!”

“Christina partnered with us for all the design and decor decisions of our new home construction project. It was particularly valuable to have her consistently tasteful eye on the myriad of options that require thoughtful choice, as we were rarely able to be on site ourselves. I would recommend her without reservation!”

“My husband and I bought an old Victorian Cottage in Georgetown, Maine. The kitchen needed to be updated and I had no idea what to do. I met with Christina and she took all the stress away. She was able to update the kitchen and keep the charm of cottage. The kitchen has a wonderful new look and also a great working space for cooking. She did everything, from the floor plan to picking out all the fixtures. It was the easiest renovation I have ever done.”
