“Jon and his entire team were exceptional to work with during the recent install of counters for a kitchen, pantry, laundry area and bathroom.
The experience from start to finish was flawless and easy. Jon advised on stone selection. And with Mark, they both ensured the templating was well thought out, the movement of stone was perfectly placed, and that install went smoothly.

“Working with Lauren was like finding a new friend. She took my ideas and worked with me to make the best selection for window coverings and upholstery. Lauren worked through an order problem from the manufacturer all behind the scenes on our behalf.“

“I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to write my well-deserved five-star review for Tess Leeds Redesign, but better late than never! Actually, now that I’m thinking about it, one of the main reasons we asked Tess to redesign our master bedroom was because we wanted a space of comfort and tranquility amidst the chaos and unkempt-ness of the rest of our house which comes with the territory of having a toddler and another baby on the way. Since our redesign in April of 2024, I’ve since had said baby (which is the main reason for my delay in writing this), and we are SO glad we have our beautiful room to retreat to at the end of the day.
Not only is our room more beautiful, but it is also more functional, with added shelving and seating space that really opened up our modestly-sized master bedroom. It was a really a watershed moment in our continual effort to clean out our house, as with all the extra shelving and wall space, we were able to get framed pictures, books, and other sentimental decor out of our basement and attic and finally on display.
We were also able to accomplish all this within a reasonable budget and timeframe. Tess’s pricing tier is based on the size of the room, and I thought her prices were absolutely commensurate with the service she delivered. Before meeting with her, we had to fill out a questionnaire with some basic information about what we were looking for, and include Pinterest boards, pictures and other inspiration to give her an idea of our vision. Then, she came one morning from 9-12ish to workshop, or “redesign”, the room with us. I really enjoyed this process, as it was collaborative. She came with the ideas, but definitely wanted our input so that she could make thoughtful suggestions. For example, we knew we were under-utilizing wall space in one corner of the room and were originally considering hanging shelves. She explained why she thought shelving wouldn’t work in this corner, and instead suggested a tall standing rattan bookshelf for not only looks, but also space maximization. We agreed, and she helped us shop for a bookshelf right there on her computer (she also used a special software to cut and paste images of items we were considering and place it in a model of our room, so we could have an idea of what it would look like). She took measurements of the space, so were could be really precise with what we were looking for and help narrow down the search. I really appreciate her doing all the legwork here, because half the battle in decorating a space is shopping for items, which can take months or even years if you do not have an expert guiding you. We ended up with a beautiful rattan bookshelf from Serena and Lily, which I would say is the defining piece of the room were it not for the deep greenish/blue grass cloth wallpaper she chose for the wall behind our bed!
I could go on with all the beautiful items and quality furniture, wallpaper, and paint she chose, but I would be remiss if I didn’t also highlight how NOT PUSHY she was with out purchasing any of it. (Keep in mind anything you purchase is out of your own pocket, and not included in Tess’s fee. Tess’s fee is what you pay for her artistic vision and legwork in getting your room designed. You decide how much you want to shell out actually executing said vision). She kept reminding us that these were suggestions and as clients, we were free to disagree for whatever reason. I also liked that she did not only suggest expensive items, but was pennywise and knew when something was actually worth the price. For instance, we added a good-looking small bench in the room that she recommended for $50 from Target (it might have been even less than that actually).
I’m reaching the end of my word limit here, or else I would go on. In short, if you are on the fence about hiring Tess, just do it! We will certainly be calling her again when we are ready to redesign another room. I’ve included some before and after photos, as well as an example of the moo“
“We have done several projects with JKS as a contractor, and it’s always a joy working with her and her team. Their style is on point, they’re organized, communication is great and the finished product always shines. 10 stars!!“
“We have an odd shaped window cushion whose zipper was unrepairable. Plus our dog’s favorite window seat needed new threads. Finding the fabric was easy, but who is going to undertake this big cushion and how expensive was it going to be?
A quick search through our neighborhood smart phone application led us to Copley Upholstery in West Roxbury.
From beginning to end, Richard could not have been more pleasant, uncomplicated, communicative. He delivered on time, workmanship was perfect and the cost was far below what we had expected.
I’m so pleased and impressed that I’m looking around the house to see what else I can have reupholstered!“
“Josh has been a pleasure to work with! We've worked on several projects together and he always provides a great experience for his clients and for his trade partners. The communication has been great and the projects are always top notch. He manages the customer's expectations really well and keeps projects on track so I can't recommend him enough!“
“Love SMMA. Great, experienced instructors with lots of passion for teaching MMA and fitness. Classes for every age and level.Take a class !!“
“Although I have not received my new sofa yet, I couldn't be happier with my purchase from BoConcept! I first found out about BoConcept from r/scandinaviandesign on Reddit. I love Danish furniture, and the store looked right up my alley and price range. It was a pleasure working with the salesperson, Nick. Nick reached out to me after I ordered swatches, and I told him everything I was hoping for with my new sofa. He found the perfect match for me (Osaka 3-seater sofa), and I fell in love with the sofa as soon as I tried it. Nick got me a great deal during the sale extraordinaer, too. He was also super knowledgeable about the furniture making process, fabric choices, and the brand's history and warranty. I would certainly recommend BoConcept for those looking for a new sofa. Their quality far surpasses competitors in similar-- and even higher-- price ranges.“
“Top of the line contractors and painters. High quality jobs that work mostly in the upper class neighborhoods of Lexington and surrounding areas. They also sell million dollar houses that they built from the ground up. 5 stars from me. I consider the owner a perfectionist.“
“I cannot say enough good things about Michael, Gabby, Madison and the entire team at Eleven Interiors. We have worked with them on multiple projects and each time both the design quality and attention to detail has exceeded our expectations. They are responsive and highly dependable. My wife and I completely trust their judgment and have come to greatly appreciate their unique ability to make living spaces both highly functional and aesthetically pleasing (not always the easiest balance). They are cognizant of budget constraints and thoughtful about designs plans that maximize value. Renovating a home can be a stressful process. Above all, they are very nice to work with, which makes the process that much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering a home renovation project.Service: Refurbishment“
