I found Julie online searching for local Central Massachusetts interior designers. I was attracted to her portfolio immediately, liking her clean and modern, yet homey and comfortable aesthetic. Our large master bathroom needed an update and Julie was the right designer for us. She listened attentively and noted our ideas while infusing her own. Design plans were exquisitely detailed and made an exciting tangible preview experience. We were impressed with her contractors and thankful for her resources. We've just completed the project; a light and airy, plant filled, spa respite and retreat bathroom

Report
I highly recommend J. Salmon Design to help with any project, big or small! My husband & I were timid to renovate our kids' bathroom in our 1890s house. Our fear was that it would look too modern and lose the character of our historic home. Julie put our worries to rest as she designed a lovely, classic bathroom. She found efficient ways to use the space better and recommended materials that fit the look we were hoping for. We now have a timeless, updated bathroom! Julie was so well organized and easily available at every step of the process. Do not hesitate to contact J. Salmon Design to help

I initially hired Julie for a two-hour consultation. I had left messages with a few designers (of which only one called back) and Julie was the only one who actually answered her phone! She was very informative and knowledgeable to my many questions about my bathroom project. My husband and I decided to substantially expand the project to include the kitchen and hope to have Julie involved with the renovation. I highly recommend Julie for your next project.
