Braverman Design

Jessie is EXCELLENT to work with! She is thorough, responsive, patient, talented! Jessie took the info I gave her on the first day we met and gave me what I wanted and more! In the end, we ended up with a very beautiful two 1/2 -story U-shaped home with an L-shaped pool, a GREENHOUSE connected the kitchen, a huge wrap around porch, fun ceilings, 1st floor fun areas, a complete 1st floor in-law suite with a private entrance, a 1st floor master suite with great views, all the closets/storage a woman could every dream of and a house that is perfect for entertaining and lots more! She mixed luxury with farmhouse simplicity and gave us a house large enough for our needs, to share with others and yet feel cozy enough to call it HOME. Jessie is super professional, yet down to earth and by the time we were done, she felt like a friend. Thank you, Jessie Braverman!

We worked with Braverman Design for a renovation project on our home in Durham and would absolutely recommend Jessie and her firm! Our project involved an expansion as well as improvements throughout the existing footprint. This was our first renovation experience and Jessie made the design process, including schematic design and design development, super easy for us. She guided us step-by-step and helped us understand trade-offs along the way so that we ultimately arrived at exactly what fit our needs and budget. Jessie was very flexible to collaborate with us in-person and over email to align with our family and work schedules. She provided multiple conceptual design options, helped us receive estimates from contractors, and provided drawings for permitting. The work from Braverman Design was consultative, creative, and high-quality.

Jessica, from Braverman Design, recently completed the design phase for a kitchen renovation and I am very pleased with the result. After an initial consultation she provided three schematic design options and, once I chose one, a code compliant architectural drawings for contractor bids. She also gave me a list of contractors and cabinet specialists. The final design is beautiful I can't wait to implement it. I appreciate that she was mindful of my budget. Her idea to add a pantry, separated from the main kitchen, will allow be to reuse some existing cabinetry and she made a few suggestions regarding appliances to avoid unnecessary expenses. On top of that, Jessica is very pleasant to work with. I would definitely recommend hiring Braverman Design.

We worked with Jessie to redesign our kitchen and laundry rooms. Jessie offered us several smart and creative designs to resolve challenges that we had, and gave us a range of options that had different estimated price points so we were able to make an informed decision. We ultimately picked our favorite components of each of her designs. She created an architectural drawing that our contractors used to carry out our vision. Our kitchen and laundry room turned out exactly as we had hoped and the project stayed within our budget. We're definitely going to work with Jessie for future projects. We absolutely 110% recommend her! Adding some before and after pictures to this review.

This is my first time working with Braverman PLLC, and my first time tackling a backyard renovation. Jessie took my vaguely formed wishes and ideas and crystallized them into several creative solutions for me, that were appropriate to the scale of my house, yard and budget. She provided schematics for me and walked me through each solution so I could evaluate the pros and cons, and made the whole idea of a renovation a lot less daunting. As well as being creative, Jessie was extremely thorough in her evaluation of my backyard. I’m looking forward to seeing the project through to fruition with her!
