It was such a pleasure working with Amanda. I needed help redecorating our living area and master bedroom. After several years of renovations on our house, I had so much decision fatigue. After discussing what I was looking for, Amanda took everything into consideration and incorporated it into her designs. Everything was so organized and streamlined and communication with both Amanda Giles and Amanda Wise was excellent. We are so happy with the finished product. It feels like a new home!

We started a remodel of our kitchen and living room. I became quickly overwhelmed when the contractor asked me to pick out my cabinets and counter top. I spent hours on Houzz and going to design rooms. I felt like I was going to spend a lot of money and I didn't want to pick the wrong things. A friend recommended Amanda and design fix. Amanda walked us through picking out everything. She listened, suggested and encouraged me. When we were almost finished she then helped me select furniture, rugs, and window treatments. Every day I'm in my kitchen and living room I absolutely love it. Amanda made my remodel look amazing. Thank you Amanda!

Amanda and Shelly did a terrific job at understanding what we wanted in re-decorating our living room. They listened and and really understood the feel we were trying to have in this large, white room that has so much potential. From the small details like, objects to put on shelves to finding an overall color scheme and working in the furniture and rugs style, they were terrific. We are so happy with how it turned out and would absolutely go to them again for help. Highly recommend DesignFix!!

This started off with a room then another room and soon enough they designed my whole house! What an amazing experience. Amanda and Michele are creative, thoughtful, detailed and warm. They provided detailed plans with measurements and multiple pieces to select from in my price range. They were super accommodating with my crazy ideas and had really cool ways to incorporate them into their designs. They did a great job of communicating shipping delays (covid/supply chain) and in some cases had alternatives vendors. I love my house, it feels like me and not like someone else designed it. Highly recommend!

We embarked on a whole house remodel and needed some guidance on making our very colorful house more 'adult', pulled-together and functional. Amanda was a perfect partner - always there when I needed her yet supportive of letting me run on my own. She helped me with a few key strategic decisions where I had 3 of the 4 parts but couldn't pull it all together on my own. Amanda also hooked us up with the best kitchen designer and we now have the kitchen of our dreams. As a finishing touch, she helped us completely reimagine how our large collection of artwork could be displayed differently and it is so much better. Our friends noticed right away that the art really shines now. I would use Amanda again in a heart beat.

It was great working with DesignFix for our new house. Amanda and Shelly are simply the best! I have interviewed 4 different interior design companies. Amanda and Shelly are the only one who listens to me and understands what I am looking for. With limited budget, some designers either directly said “NO” to me or tried to expand the scope; however, Amanda and Shelly are totally different. They spent time understanding my thoughts and provided recommendations but never forced me to accept. Due to COVID, project went longer than the plan. Amanda and Shelly always kept me updated regarding the status and offered alternatives. Results came out amazing. I received a lot of praise from friends and family. I will definitely work with DesignFix again for my next interior design project. Thank you, Amanda and Shelly, for the whole year efforts!

Pleasure to work with Designfix. We felt our interior design choices came alive in our home and with comfort and space usage very well taken care of. We love our new interior in our brand new condominium and daily appreciate the Designfix team.

I worked with Shelly & Amanda to recreate a comfortable yet stylish TV room for hanging out with family. It was my second project with them and, once again, they were a complete pleasure to work with! Design and decor is *not* my strength -- nor my interest. And I don't have a lot of time. But I want the finished product. Shelly & Amanda listen to what I'm trying to solve for, work with what I've already got, suggest products to help me build a vision, and generally bring structure to my vague ideas. They're respectful of budgets and able to suggest options at a range of price points. And they help with the details -- painting, framing, and hanging art and curtains. Already thinking about what to work with them on next!

Amanda & Shelly helped us to make our new house into a comfortable and functional home. They developed creative solutions to work with our existing furnishings in a complicated space & suggested beautiful accents to enhance the things we already had. They were very easy to work with -- from scheduling, to purchasing, to project implementation. Will definitely call them again when it's time to redecorate.

Shelly and Amanda innovatively transformed a small space into a multi-functional room. Can't wait for our next project! Beyond Thanks!!

Amanda and Shelly helped me redesign my living room, office, and bedroom. The project went about as smoothly as I could have expected. I really appreciated the care that Amanda and Shelly took with my project and I was very happy with the outcome. Thank you!

I consider myself pretty good with design, but we were stuck for an overall paint scheme for our house with a significant remodel. We sat down with Amanda for an hour and a half, and in that time she listened to our likes, discussed ideas, and helped us design a paint color scheme for our house which we love! We went through several iterations, and she helped us understand which colors go together well and how to adjust our original ideas to better coordinate while still holding to some bold color choices we wanted. She also pointed out some things about the styles we liked (such as the contrast between white cabinets and black drawer pulls) that we hadn't noticed before but can carry forward for other ideas in our house. Amanda was excellent, and we will hopefully hire her team again soon to help us layout out a good flow through our new space and maybe some new furniture.

Both Amanda and Michelle were excellent to work with. They really know their stuff. They knew how to find my style preference when I was unable to do that on my own. I feel like I like everything, but they kept me focused while still keeping me in the decision making process. I consulted with other firms before deciding on DesignFix. They are down to earth and are able to work at whatever level and/or budget you have for max impact. We are thrilled with our updated living space and now I smile every time I come through the door. I plan to use them again for future projects.

We hired Shelly and Amanda to help us furnish our entire home. We had moved from a one bedroom apartment with old IKEA furniture into a 3 bedroom, 1700sf house...and we'd made the move with a 6-month-old baby, during the holidays, and we both work full time. We knew that we wanted to upgrade to adult furnishings that we would love for a long time and get rid of pretty much everything we had from our apartment, but we were completely overwhelmed when it came to making it happen. Shelly and Amanda came and did a walk-through of our house, took measurements, talked to us about our style preferences and how we wanted to use the different spaces in our new place. They then came up with a bunch of ideas for us to react to in terms of aesthetics, colors, styles, etc. We are very decisive people but we're low on spare time, so it was awesome to have a specific list of things to say "yes" and "no" to rather than have to do a bunch of searching for things ourselves. They really listened to what we said and accounted for all of our preferences. Shelly has a knack for finding ways to make spaces more efficient and useful, which I loved. Amanda's eye for color and style is exceptional. There were a few times when I was pretty skeptical about a suggestion but went with it anyway (you can always return stuff) but then I ended up loving it more than anything I would have chosen myself. In the end they did layout, design, furniture, paint color and accessory selection for our nursery, office, living room, family room, master bedroom and office. It was a monster project. It takes a while to get through all of that, but that was mostly because some furniture orders just take a long time and we did it in phases. They were responsive, flexible and helpful throughout. At the end of the project I had Shelly add up the total cost of furnishings plus the cost of their time. After the design discounts they got for us we still came out ahead (i.e. we paid less for their services than we saved in discounts). So it was 100% worth it based on numbers alone. Add in the savings to our sanity and the fabulous end result that we couldn't have envisioned ourselves, and it was 500% worth it. Our home looks beautiful and well put together - we love it and get compliments all the time. Thanks Amanda and Shelly!

I had such a great experience working with Amanda and Shelly to transform the main living area in my condo. Despite having some ideas of what to do, I was overwhelmed at the thought of trying to do it myself and have the end result be something that was I happy with. DesignFix to the rescue. I loved that they came in for an initial consultation and really tried to get to know me and what I like. And the rest of the process went smoothly as we moved through finalizing a floorplan and then picking furniture and other décor for the room. They really listened to my feedback and were open to my suggestions along the way as well. It was a truly collaborative experience all the way through. I am over the moon happy with the end result and even got a little misty eyed at the end of installation just seeing the transformation. I will happily recommend DesignFix to anyone looking for an interior designer.

What a fabulous experience working with these folks!! Amanda & Shelly helped me create a "reading room" in a somewhat awkwardly shaped space in my house -- and over a year later, I'm *still* talking about how much I love it!! The job involved helping me identify furniture, shelves, lighting, and a rug, and working with my existing items. They listened to what I was trying to accomplish, worked with my budget, and adapted selections and recommendations based on my feedback. They attended to even the smallest details, like getting a prized textile from past travels framed AND hung on my wall (they arranged for a handy man to come do the install, along with hanging photos). They styled the final bits for a polished yet comfortable and cozy finish. Finally, their website made working through options super-easy. I've subsequently both recommended them to friends and have people ask me for the recommendation after seeing the finished project. Thank you!

We had a great experience working with Amanda! She is a very good listener and she “gets” us. I hired her to help us refresh our kitchen. We didn’t know where to start. Amanda first created a color palette that complements the adjoining rooms. Next, she helped us choose counter top and backsplash material. From there, we chose wallpaper, paint and window treatments. Amanda has great relationships with vendors and contractors who are very talented and professional. Everything was completed beautifully. We are so happy and will definitely call on Amanda for our next project.

We are here at our place in Kauai for the first time since the remodel you did, and we are so, so happy with all you’ve done. Wow! It’s just perfect, and it feels like our home now. We are so grateful for what you did and for your skills and talents with design. Another benefit is that our condo rentals have significantly increased since the new photos went on the web site. It only had 2-3 unbooked nights per month between January to April. That’s completely different than pre-remodel, so the changes you’ve made have clearly been appealing to renters as well. The people who’ve stayed in our condo since the remodel have consistently commented on how beautiful it is. Yay!

We contacted Amanda and Shelly after our kitchen remodel was completed to help us with a floor plan for our new open concept living/dining/kitchen area and design direction. They really took the time to listen to our needs, desires, and delivered several great options for layout and design direction. With their help, we have that extra nudge of confidence to proceed with furniture selection and colors. The Design Fix team was very flexible with working with us to adjust the scope of our project in phases, helping us to manage our priorities and budget. Love the convenient online scheduling tool too. I would definitely recommend Amanda and Shelly's services to friends and look forward to working with them on the next phases of our project.

I hired DesignFix to help finish up some spaces in my home. Amanda and Shelly were so easy to work with. I’ve had some not so great experiences with other designers who have their own idea of what your space should look like and you’re left with a room that you don’t love and a hole in your wallet. Working with the DesignFix team from start to finish was so much fun. They came up with great ideas and amazing style boards. I love the end result and couldn’t be any happier.

Amanda was very pleasant to work with. She’s got great taste and was very considerate in helping me stay in my budget. She helped me each step of the way in redecorating my living room to ensure a great outcome.

We work with Design Fix often and I am always impressed by their professionalism. They offer a unique design service offering practical solutions for Bay Area homes. They usually come to our wood furniture store to help the customer with storage solutions. In addition to our products, they work their magic and transform a room for their clients into a functional, warm and beautiful space. They are great about really listening to their clients. I have experienced the satisfaction and joy expressed by their clients. They involve their clients in every decision.

Making material and decorating selections can be overwhelming for homeowners. Design Fix helps guide clients in selections based on style and budget to help make a home look "finished". I really value their service because they incorporate a vision for the entire home. They are also great with storage solutions and space planning. Amanda and Shelly are very easy to work with. They really listen to their clients and care about the finished product. I would highly recommend Design Fix!

Loved working with Amanda on my bathroom remodel. I had a vision but needed some help to get to the finish line! Amanda very quickly helped me zero in on my vision and added the subtle but special feature I was missing. She has a wonderful ability to design to meet each customers individual taste. I could not be happier.

We are so thankful for Amanda's help in our house remodel. She assisted us in so many different aspects - paint colors, tile style layout, lighting, furniture layout, etc. What we really appreciated was that she was able to work within our budget - helping us to keep costs more reasonable, yet never having to compromise style. We appreciated her help at both big an little decision points along the way. Superb design team!

I hired them pretty much for one hour to help on a quick design of our family room. They arrived on time and were so wonderful and professional. In that short time they did a fantastic job of recommendations. I will definitely use in the future for bigger projects. So happy I met these wonderful women !!

Amanda is phenomenal. She brought color samples to the first meeting and had a color palette going in an hour. Took us to a floor store and we were on our way selecting flooring with her help. She advised us on so many details that two other design professionals had totally missed out on. She was super responsive to emails and phone calls - always with thoughtful answers. She helped us with everything - from light fixtures to accessories. We were super happy with our whole house design. And all within our budget. We will be calling her again for all our design needs and highly highly recommend her!!

I hired DesignFix to help me with assorted decorating projects around my new home and I was very satisfied with their services. Most decorators want a job minimum, in terms of scale of project or cost. DesignFix was great for my situation because I had a bunch of smaller design concerns that we could handle incrementally. They have excellent color and style taste and are very resourceful. I will definitely will use them in the future when the need arises.

Amanda and Shelly did a great job helping me make my living and family rooms more useable and comfortable by rearranging the furniture, updating the accessories and suggesting a family-friendly color scheme. Overall, it was a cost-effective update that delights me on a daily basis. I would definitely work with them again on a future project.

I have had the pleasure to work with Amanda on several projects over the past 3 years and look forward to many more projects together. Amanda is very efficient and extremely talented in putting all the finishing touches together. I highly recommend Amanda and my clients just love her.

Amanda did an amazing job helping design the interior of our home. We recently remodeled and Amanda was there each step of the way. She helped pick out all the materials (tile, stone, flooring, cabinets, lighting, paint) for our bathrooms, kitchen, family room, and outdoor living space. She has some incredible ideas and she stayed with-in our budget. Amanda also has many connections, which made the entire process go very smoothly. We loved working with Amanda and are thrilled with the way our home looks.

A true eye for elegant yet simple design. I love Amanda's color coordination and furniture placement. Her overall presentation is both comforting and sophisticated.
