Design Vision

I worked with Isabel on two separate home projects and both were very positive experiences. The latter project was a new home construction design project in Florida that lasted 18 months. She was involved with all aspects of the home finishing selections including flooring, wall tile, counter surfaces, plumbing hardware, cabinetry, light fixtures, and paint colors. Because of her input and advice, the home came out beautifully. Additionally, she was instrumental with the selection of every piece of furniture, and all decorative pieces, including area rugs, and lighting for the entire home. Every aspect of the décor coordinated and looked amazing. She and I were able to utilize technology to meet virtually, which saved a lot of time for both of us. Isabel is extremely patient, thoughtful, creative, and attentive to details. She actively listened to my opinions and ideas. She made suggestions based on my vision, not hers. She has an amazing eye for color. Because the project was out of state and the builder’s design center was as well, she ordered samples for us to “see in person,” and she created vision boards that were invaluable in helping me to visualize the many options within a given room. She found furniture and decorative pieces that I loved and never would have considered but worked so well in the house. Her skills as an architect complimented her great design eye as she was able to quite accurately determine the best size of furniture pieces to buy, and how to lay them out. She enabled me to realize the beautiful home that I had dreamed of. I could not have done this home construction and design project without someone like Isabel. I would collaborate with her again, without any hesitation.

My husband and I were looking for someone to help us with a big move out of our family home into a smaller home closer to Boston. It was a stressful move, after having lived in our home for over 20 years. Isabel had been recommended by a friend of a friend and so we hired her immediately. We weren’t quite ready to give up some of our existing furniture, and Isabel listened carefully to our desire to utilize some of these pieces and somehow fit them into our much smaller apartment along with her new selections. The result was a a fun, contemporary pied a terre which still featured several of our most memorable artworks and antiques but with just the right blend of modern elements which fit perfectly into our new, urban lifestyle! - Tracy B.

Isabel did an amazing job on our master bedroom and second floor refresh! We love the esthetic - very clean, fresh and modern. And we especially love the vibe in our master which has a warm, hip and relaxing feel, just what we were looking for. Isabel is the real deal as she is not only a great designer with a keen sense of color, she also knows how to source the best materials at the right price. Complete icing on the cake is that she's flexible, patient and knows how to work through decision making. We will definitely be working with Isabel again, can’t wait! - Karen M.

Isabel helped us decorate our bedrooms and dining room, finding unique, interesting pieces to complement our collection of paintings. Along with utilizing our favorite existing furniture, she also chose items that matched our taste and budget, creating a cohesive look throughout the house. My husband and I have such a tough time agreeing on anything, but Isabel has a 6th sense for picking just the right items which we both fell in love with immediately!

I chose to work with Design Vision based on their belief that intentionally designed spaces can shape the life you envision and give you home "soul." Isabel is visionary, easy to work with, resourceful, flexible, and above all, creative. She is everything you would want in a designer! I can't recommend them highly enough.
