Interior Design near Encino

“I’ve worked with other contractors before, but Graceland stands out for their clear communication and excellent results.“

“Not only was the owner Carole Frederick but she happily spent two hours to find the right wall covering that would enhance the colors already in the living room but be durable and able to stand lots of traffic. She offered some decorating ideas that would help me later“

“The bathroom remodel completely transformed the space. Every detail, from the new fixtures to the updated tiles, feels thoughtfully chosen and high quality. The team worked efficiently, keeping everything tidy and on schedule, and they were easy to communicate with whenever questions came up. It’s amazing to see how much brighter and more functional the bathroom feels now. Walking in feels like stepping into a fresh, modern space that actually makes daily routines more enjoyable.“

“I have worked with several designers and the trades people they recommended, with outcomes often ranging from acceptable to nightmarish. Lisa was a breath of fresh air! She has taken responsibility for the work from start to finish, and the quality and outcome is wonderful. My space has been transformed into a beautiful and calming oasis.
Lisa is able to provide superb attention to detail without ever losing sight of the big picture and how all the pieces fit together. She has been a terrific partner throughout the process, extremely responsive to my vision, preferences and budget, while providing clarity, expertise and guidance about what the aesthetic parameters and requirements are. Nowadays it's very rare to find this level of fresh classic design, competency, professionalism and true pride of workmanship, and it's been much appreciated.“

“Me and my partner both work full time and have two kids, so trying to do a kitchen remodel felt kinda crazy at first. But Eli and Donna made it possible.

Eli understood our situation right away. He knew timing and communication would be key for us and he managed to work around our schedules. The crew cleaned up every night, we got daily photo updates, knew what to expect each week, etc.

Everything was planned and communicated clearly. That alone made a huge difference.

Donna came in with a plan and a spreadsheet and somehow made the design process feel doable even after 10-hour workdays. We were tired most days but she made it easy and didn’t overwhelm us. Just gave us options that fit our taste and budget.

Now the kitchen is our favorite part of the house. We use it all the time and still cant believe how smooth it all went.“

“We recently worked with Ezra to convert the tandem bay of our garage into a bedroom, and we couldn’t be happier with the final outcome. After struggling to find reliable architects and engineers as part of fallout of the Covid pandemic, Ezra came through and got our project back on track. His pricing was fair and reasonable, and he was always open to discussing options and ideas with us. He communicated with the city repeatedly to keep the permit application and building inspections on track, which took a big weight off our shoulders. We really like the quality of the work performed by his crew. The team—Rudy, Josue, Efren, and the many others—were respectful, hard-working, and always accommodating to our (and our one-year-old's) needs. They kept the construction site and surround tidy throughout, which was a huge relief.
Highly recommend!“

After an exhaustive search for a contractor to renovate our outdated kitchen, we chose Jonathan, and it was a decision we never regretted.

They transformed our nightmare kitchen into a dream space, showcasing their expertise and attention to detail. Jonathan is not only highly experienced but also incredibly personable, making the entire renovation process smooth and enjoyable. He is accommodating yet firm on non-negotiables that ensure quality, which we greatly appreciated.

One of the standout features of working with Jonathan was his excellent communication skills. He kept us informed and involved at every step of the renovation, often reaching out several times a day.

“High quality work, super professional and a joy to work with. Guy and his team made my dream project come to life. Thank you Guy and team!“

“Thank you so much for the meeting today. I am newly appreciative of how little I know and how much I need the guidance of the wisdom of people who are experts. Just listening to the various conversations about how even seemingly small things (like surveying for example) come out of different buckets and how careful you have to be to categorize everything correctly to maximize your insurance proceeds was highly illuminating. I suspect I will be eating healthy portions of humble pie throughout this process. My heart is full of gratitude for your willingness to help me. It’s astonishingly helpful to work with someone who’s been through it and understands.“

“Really great experience with Ted purchasing my tile. Super helpful and was patient in showing me so many options. Highly recommend!“

“Chen was a pleasure to work with. He was always prompt and responsive, and provided us with some great insight into the kitchen/breakfast room and bathroom remodel we were working on. We were lucky enough to have a family friend be able to have his schedule open up to take on the project for us, but we would have chosen to work with Chen if not. I highly recommend reaching out to him for any kind of remodel as he is highly professional and has great attention to detail.“

“I used Solo Tile & Stone Design for my recent bathroom remodel project. Their selection is very wide and they carry high quality tile. I got 3 types of tile, and the vanity counter top from them. The installer underestimated and we needed to order more on multiple occasions... Edwin was always very quick to order additional and keep my job moving forward. They were great to work with and super-helpful. I highly recommend them!“

“They are just amazing. A large selection of surfaces in Natural Stone from all over the world. Marbles, quartzites, exquisite granites. Just perfect selection and space.“

“They have a great selection of stone, very competitive pricing and fabulous customer service. Both Brenda and Christina are great.“

“Excellent communication and very knowledgeable of zoning laws. One stop shop for architectural needs.“

“Alive Edge did a wonderful job. Our single piece slab table was finished exactly as ordered. We custom ordered our legs and the shipping was bulletproof!
We are thoroughly enjoying our beautiful Live Edge table and recommend Alive Edge Designs.
Thank you“

“We had three fully custom closets designed and couldn’t be happier. Everything looks great, and the construction/materials are clearly high quality and beautiful. We went through multiple design revisions and they were patient and helpful at every turn. Highly recommend!“

“They did a fantastic job repairing Sunbrella outdoor pillow that had been destroyed by a squirrel. It took a little longer than expected because of problems with shipping of the material. However, we were very pleased with the results and workmanship when the job was finished.“

“There are not enough adjectives to effectively express the superlative service of Christy B and her consistently extraordinary results. She listens carefully and understands our needs — in many ways better than we do — and synthesizes seemingly random complex collection of ideas into a solid, actionable plan. Of course, there are times when issues arise and, when they do, rest easy knowing that having a trustworthy ally that treats each project as her own is key to success. Christy is personable and genuinely enthusiastic. Her design sensibilities are first class and she carefully curates from the best products and materials. She works with highly-skilled artisans who are pushing beyond the boundaries of their craft. Christy is accessible, approachable and addresses all concerns quickly and effectively. Being highly organized and respected by those she worked with, she orchestrates the entire project with the skill of a conductor, making certain to ensure every aspect of the project surpasses expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend Christy B to anyone who is interested in renovating and transforming any space into what it dreams to be.“

“Plank & Stone has amazing products. Mia is honest, knowledgeable and always gives the best price!“

“If you're looking for top-notch interior design services in Los Angeles, I highly recommend ARIA Design. They transformed my space into something I absolutely love, and I couldn't be more grateful.“

“Let me just tell you… In LA is there not a plethora of people to cull through to find the designer you want to work with? … Will they have style? Will they be within my budget? Will they be available and have good work ethic? Will they be flexible and be able to handle the unforeseen changes? Will they be personable and someone you will like to work with? Will they have good contacts in the industry?

We found it all with Debby Berkovich!

My husband is very picky and interviewed countless people. He is the ultimate researcher and he kept searching and searching to find someone he felt comfortable with the right style and budget. We feel so lucky to have met and worked with Debby.

We had many slow downs because we were doing construction with insurance delays. Debby was so receptive to our ever-changing needs and patient at every turn.

We had our own GC before we had found her. And even though they never had a relationship prior they worked very well with each other. To the point that he now refers tons of clients to her.

She has a great reputation in the industry. Every vendor had a great relationship with Debby and loved working with us because of her.

From start to finish, she was an absolute pleasure to work with. Her creativity, attention to detail, and ability to bring our vision to life were truly remarkable. Debby made the entire process seamless. She communicated clearly, stayed on top of every detail, and always kept us in the loop. Not only did she stay within our budget, but she also managed to deliver results that exceeded our expectations.

Our home feels stylish, functional, and tailored to our taste… we couldn’t be happier with the results! We highly recommend Debby Berkovich to anyone looking for a talented and professional interior designer.“

“Gabriel was a pleasure to work with. His crew was very professional. I designed The two bathrooms and picked out most of the material from his warehouse. His crew Brought my dream bathroom to life. They were all very patient with me. Very professional and accommodating. Responded to questions Quickly. I would work with them again and definitely recommend them.“

“Elizabeth's store is a winter wonderland now full of great gifts and things for the house. The staff is so helpful and welcoming. It was my first shopping experience in the palisades since the fires and I was so happy to see the store so full of life.“

“I was in search of a beautiful wallpaper for my daughters bedroom. JOJO introduced this amazing mural to us. It is so dreamy! The compliments are never ending. It changed the entire look of the room. JOJO’s designs and creativity is out of this world. He is so professional, kind, down to earth and fun to work with. Not to mention he has a fabulous design studio!“

“I can't recommend Jamie and her team enough! Jamie is incredibly personable, always making you feel like a priority and going above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly. She’s not only super talented, but also genuinely cares about her clients and their needs.

Her receptionist, Laura, is equally amazing—always greeting me with a smile and ensuring I feel welcome every time I walk in. If you’re looking for a dedicated, friendly, and professional team, Jamie and her team are the way to go!“

“Guy and his team at Designer Kitchens are professional and really easy to deal with. They did a great job on our kitchen remodel at a fair price. Guy always answers his phone, responds to texts, and was always ready with a solution. I would highly recommend them for home building, renovations and remodeling.Services: Tile work installation“
