Client Reviews
“I had a great experience working with Joy over several months during the fall and winter of 2019 on redecorating several rooms within an apartment. The entire process, from discussing goals and aligning on style, to the actual search and iteration of actionable design ideas was all very neatly delineated and seamless.
I found Joy's approach to be very high touch and organized, spanning multiple mediums depending on the need, from normal emails and Google docs to Pinterest boards, mockups, and summary recaps of ideas that we had decided on. Joy knew the right questions to ask and I found communicating with her via email to be highly effective and efficient.
I would highly recommend working with Joy to anyone looking to elevate their living space!”

“I just wanted to thank you, Joy, for your guidance and understanding about our needs with our kitchen update. I was a little nervous to see how working with an e-designer (on a different continent) and a small budget would go, but I’m so pleased we went for it.
You were patient and gently guided us in a way that has turned an 80's nightmare into a lovely space people actually now compliment (I mean, who would've thought!). A very heartfelt thank you!

“We had made a decision to paint a bright green accent wall which I think many designers would have tried to talk us into changing, but it feels fun to us and we wanted to maintain it.
Joy not only never tried to sway us, but worked incredibly hard to find a color palette for the rest of the kitchen /dining area that was neutral and warm and made the wall feel completely integrated into the space.
Her creative ideas included sourcing a vintage cabinet from craigslist because they are narrower than newer furniture and fit better in our historic home. When we found the right piece, it was beautiful, unique, and 100% worth it. Joy also brilliantly came up with a solution to repurpose IKEA wall cabinets that we had been using as a pantry since we moved in. We lowered them down and DIY'd a topper for them that elevated the whole look.”
