ATX Design Studio

Maria at ATX Design Studio was an instrumental part of our custom home build that elevated the project beyond anything we could have ever imagined when it came to lighting. She came to us as a referral after touring a house that had the most stunning lighting and you don't realize the importance of proper lighting until you actually see it in a home that has it done the right way. She is organized, I never had any issue with her billing (which says a lot when you hire a designer! ), and every time someone tours our home for the first time they always mention our lighting. My advice to anyone building a house, this is one area to invest the time and money as it will have such a high impact than deciding between 2cm or 3cm marble counters. Thank you Maria for investing your time and expertise in our home!

We LOVE the job Maria did for us. We feel so fortunate to have found her. We knew lighting made a difference in the way a room felt but we had NO IDEA the extent of knowledge one could have on this topic. Maria knows more about lighting colors, lumens, directional thingamajigs, special products like LED strips, interior, exterior, etc. than you can imagine. Not only does Maria know her lighting, she's thorough, easy to schedule, super responsive, incredibly organized and a pleasure to work with. We've been in our home 6 months and I still mentally thank Maria when I walk into a room. You don't notice the lighting...which is exactly the way we wanted it to be. Instead, you just feel good in each space. The placement, choice of bulb, color of light, etc. all make such a difference in the overall mood. Maria knows more on this topic than anyone else I've ever met and we're so happy that she was able to work with us. Thank you, Maria!

Because of Maria's meticulous impeccable thoughtful design, light is always exactly where it's needed, in just the right amount with precisely controlled brightness. It's also happily absent anywhere else that would be superfluous and energy-wasting. This was our first new construction home and the value I place on her expertise has only increased. Once you actually live in your home you truly realize how critically important and useful lighting design actually is.

Maria at ATX Design Studio is knowledgeable and hands on. Her drawings and specifications for lighting are comprehensive and detailed. She works well with clients and helps them by bringing working examples of the lights she is proposing. For may owners lighting can be overwhelming. Maria's command of the field helps them make decisions with confidence.

ATX Design Studio (Maria) was thorough, organized, and always available for questions. We renovated our condo and Maria helped us from start to finish with all the electrical design. She oversaw all work and made sure it was completed to our satisfaction. She answered every text and every call. Her ideas and designs were wonderful. Highly recommend.

Maria from ATX design studio was amazing. She was very detail oriented and saw the project thru from helping us select the fixtures to choosing the correct orientation to light our art work. This is our 2nd house that we build. Our first house had ordinary builder lighting and the difference between hiring a lighting designer or not is huge. It's a small cost to pay for a fabulous outcome.She took out all the guess work on which products to choose from the overwhelming number of options and kept us within budget. We highly recommend ATX design studio.

Maria was great to work with. She suggested recessed art lighting that looks beautiful. She ordered it for me and got me wholesale pricing on it. She designed the lighting plans for the electricians and helped me find great electricians for the install. I couldn't be more pleased, and I highly recommend Maria - she knows her stuff!!

Maria brings a high level of passion and professionalism to ensuring that your home will be beautifully lit. She understands the architects and builders process and works well to ensure your vision is achieved.

Working with Maria was a dream. Her talent, professionalism and positive attitude were all enormously helpful to our project. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thanks so much, Maria!

Maria has been the most pleasant experience of my entire building project. She is talented, professional, extremely organized, detail oriented, and super passionate about lighting. It has been so refreshing to work with someone who loves what they do, works hard at it, and delivers high quality work. If we could all only be so fortunate to work with people like this in our lives. I couldn't recommend her highly enough!!

Working with Maria was a very pleasant experience. Her lighting schedule was thorough, easy to follow, and she responded quickly to any questions that arose throughout the project. I was impressed with her design before execution, and I was very pleased with the final result. Illuminating spaces by calculation is essential to elevating them from a simple room in a random house to something much greater. Maria's experience and knowledge of lighting control is fundamental to developing a space's character and one's place within it.

Definitely an A plus lighting design. Maria ensured the contractors delivered what she envisioned at no additional cost to the home owner. I am very satisfied at the design and enjoy daily the special touches she added to the features of the design My home has an added edge of delightfulness because of her sensitivity to my needs in the kitchen, living and dining areas of my home. would redo again, gave me confidence that it was the right investment to make in my redesign
