I had a whole house to design: remodeling and furnishing over 3,000 square feet from floor to ceiling. For someone who has never done more than order chain-store sofas over the Internet, this was a daunting assignment. Jennifer and her interior design team went far beyond my expectations, not only in designing every inch of my new home, but in managing the entire project and keeping my anxiety in check, no small achievement in itself.

In the first weeks, Niche took measurements of everything and started visualizing the project right away. Simultaneously, they got a thorough sense of both my design aesthetic and budget, and in a matter of weeks, provided options for paint, layouts, cabinets, and fixtures. And soon after that, they presented me with a wide array of furniture possibilities for every room, from gorgeous chairs and tables manufactured by small companies to great one-of-a-kind custom pieces from local San Francisco furniture builders. And they included budget items, too, so I could best decide how to most efficiently spend my money.

Considering all the great work Jennifer and her small interior design team did, and how smoothly they did it, it seemed like I’d hired a much larger company. The Niche team is either amazingly efficient or they’ve somehow adapted to surviving on two hours sleep a night. The bottom line, of course, is my home, which is the manifestation of everything I could’ve possibly desired. Each room feels comfortable and organic but is also perfectly in sync with an elegant Mid-century modern aesthetic. Niche not only saved me an incredible amount of time, they designed a home more attractive and stylish than I could have imagined. Jennifer and her design team are both extremely talented and diligent, and I’m forever grateful to them.
