Reviews of Niche Interiors (Interior Designer)

Julie Shim Park

After disappointing experiences with two other interior design firms, I learned that Niche was available to help me decorate our house. I was more than ready to start the process of making my house livable, and Jen and Lynn jumped on my project immediately. They were extremely responsive, respectful, and well-organized. They really listened to what I wanted and this made for a very smooth and efficient process. They gave me excellent options for each of the pieces I needed and gave good guidance when I was having trouble making up my mind. They were also very mindful of our budget, giving us good advice on where to splurge and where to save. Also, I was quite specific about our needs as a growing family, and Jen and her team had a great sense for how to make the house kid-friendly but still beautiful and interesting. I also really appreciated that they weren't afraid to give me candid suggestions. For example, I initially would have stuck to all neutrals, but they helped give me new perspective on adding a bit of color here and there, and I now see how right they were about it! I couldn't be happier with the end result. I feel like our house truly reflects our personal style without sacrificing any functionality. They are extremely professional and are a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Niche for any project, large or small!

We moved into a new house, and wanted to make it feel like home. Niche Interiors worked with us for 10 months to make it happen, and we could not be happier. Specifically, they suggested the color scheme for the entire interior, window treatments, designed the floor plans for the living room, family room, all the bedrooms, the office, the entryway, and the entertainment room. They also worked with us to implement the floor plans, with an elegant mix of custom-made and retail pieces. I really appreciated their intuition, understanding of our tastes, vast professional knowledge, and efficiency of their work process. Jen and Lynn have an amazing intuition for color and space dimension. Our previous home had a very different style, and I needed help with selecting the new color scheme. Jen suggested to go with a combination of blues and grays - to reflect on the views of the bay. We are so happy with how it all turned out. I have also worked with Niche on designing our office workspace for 2-3 people. It had to work for both school age kids and adults in the house. Lynn worked with us to understand our needs, created the elevations for the office cabinets and worked with a woodworking specialist to implement the solution. While before the homework has been done on any flat surface in the house, kids now like the space, and it became their primary homework hub. We also worked together on the remodel of our entertainment room, and Niche was instrumental in choosing details big and small, from picking out the colors and the styles for the cabinets, to knobs/pulls, and counter-top backsplash. The space is beautiful, we get compliments on it from all of our friends. Lastly, I really appreciated that Niche is meticulous about keeping records - having just moved into the house, my filing system was a mess, and I sometimes had to go back to them for reminders about the selection details. They always had them at their fingertips. I am sad to have all the projects coming to an end, I really enjoyed working with Niche. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a group of talented, energetic, and versatile designer specialists!

Niche Interiors is so talented. She has helped me design a kitchen, a bathroom, and we are in the process of re-vamping the living room. She is sensitive to budget and, though she has her own taste, great about listening to her clients. I have been beyond pleased with the friendly and professional service provided by Niche Interiors and her entire staff. I even recommended her to my best friend!

Working with Niche Interiors has been a complete pleasure! Jennifer and her team are focused and efficient. They listened carefully and spent the time to figure out exactly what we liked and what we wanted. Their design process is fluid with repeated feedback and communication. They understand getting it right the first time is important. Our house instantly transformed into a place we could enjoy as soon as the new paint job was done with the colors that Jennifer picked for/with us. After the furniture arrived, we were awed by how well everything came together. The final results exceeded all our expectations. I remember vividly the looks of our baby sitters and friends when they walked into our living room for the first time. In my opinion, Jennifer and her team's design is beautiful yet extremely functional. They are great with colors and space. I can't recommend her highly enough to anybody who is looking for an interior designer.

I have worked with Niche on a number of occasions, primarily building custom pieces for residential homes. Jen and her team have always, without fail, been professional, easy to work with and extremely competent. I highly recommend them to excel with your project, no matter the scale and detail.

We are so grateful to have found Jennifer Jones and Niche Interiors. Jennifer has been such a pleasure to work with. We have a small house with a challenging floor plan and we did not get the “gene” for home decorating. We are senior citizens who were living with a lot of clutter and rooms that didn’t work well for us. Jennifer has designed beautiful rooms in keeping with our taste, values and budget. She is so professional, works efficiently, shows up on time. She gave us an image book to learn about our tastes, gave us nice options (for each item we needed) in three price ranges, and came in under budget. Jennifer also designed a beautiful built-in cabinet/ window seating area and found a skilled craftsman to build it. The built-in fits well with the original architectural details of the house, and looks as if it is original. Jennifer was very sensitive to my husband’s needs as a disabled person; she was always considerate of feelings. I was afraid to work with a designer for fear of being looked down upon, but Jennifer is totally down to earth and never made us feel “taste challenged”.

Jennifer and her talented team take home design to a new level. Their hands-on, creative and collaborative approach set us and our mutual client at ease. We worked in tandem with their team on a complicated renovation and move project, and I can't speak more highly to the level of skill and professionalism with which they delivered. Our client was beyond thrilled with their work, and for us as a sub-contractor, they made the project turnkey. Niche combines effective design project management with a modern, livable and sustainable product. ~Margaret Walsh, Katie Car and the Changing-Places team
