Reviews of Holly Volpe Interior Design (Interior Designer)

LA AC

When I moved to New Jersey, I was starting over and wanted the new start to be reflected in my home. I gave away nearly everything but treasured antiques from family. After interviewing two interior designers, both of whom who said my antiques 'had to go,' I was discouraged that I'd not find a professional interior designer who was talented enough to give me a modern look that incorporated my antique pieces. I was wrong. Proving that the third time is the charm, Holly arrived at my house and not only complimented the antique pieces from my grandparents and parents, she seemed to relish the challenge of combining them with my desire for a new, updated look. The other thing that sealed the deal for me was her approach. Before she looks at swatches, wallpaper or paint, she helped me figured out how to use my rooms and what furniture should go into them. Where did I want my home office? Where should the TV go? This first step helps with those decisions. Holly also encouraged me to set up a board on Pinterest and, eventually, share it with her. At first, the Pinterest idea seemed strange, but I started to see why it is important. For me, using Pinterest made me see I have a very distinct style. I'm not into neutrals; I love wallpaper; and I want my personal photos to be seen, and not hidden away in albums. I got everything I wanted. My home is amazing, and coming home to a gorgeous home filled with beautiful things makes me so happy. Holly and her team were so easy (and fun!) to work with and a joy to be around. It was so exciting to return home after a work trip and walk into my home and see evidence that Holly and her team had been there, transforming my house. I am so grateful for the outstanding work they did at my home, one that many people think belongs in a design magazine.
