Hi L.,

I highly recommend Rebecca Pogonitz with Schema Interiors in Skokie. She works with a variety of clients, is very easy to work with and definately works within the budget you have. Good luck!

Hi L.,

I am a Color Consultant and specialize in Color application in Interior Design-both residential and commercial spaces. Color is everywhere we look-both inside and out. I love working with color, and I love seeing the impact it makes on a person's living/working environment. People feel renewed and rejuvenated in their new space after incorporating color in the appropriate manner, and that is the biggest reward in my career!!

The jobs I have completed in the past have run the gamut from: picking out paint, selecting lighting, designing tile layouts, selecting furniture, and coordinating various textiles within a room (i.e. furniture, rugs, and window treatments).

Currently, I am offering a Complimentary One-Hour In-Home Consultation. Should you schedule a consultation I would come to your home, show you my portfolio, and discuss the scope of your project and budget you have alloted.

Please let me know if I may be of service to you!

All the best,
D. F.

where are you located? My mother-in-law is an excellent interior designer and I'm sure she can and does work within a budget since that's ALL we do....here at my home. She could at least meet with you and tell you what to expect if you're interested....m

L.:
My name is V. and I've just started my own interiors business out of my home in Oak Park. Previously, I worked for Walter E. Smithe for 2 1/2 years as a designer. I'd be happy to come meet with you and I would have no problem working within a budget and/or a phasing-in plan. I have partnerships with Walter E. Smithe, Toms-Price and a new furniture store called Arhaus, which allows me to keep my design rates low. Through these companies, I can find all types and styles of furniture, accessories and window dressings, etc. I hope you will respond and we can talk live about your wishes for your home!
