My "first impression" of Amy came while watching her deliberate over two green color swatches that looked pretty much the same to me. I chuckled at my own lack of sense in the difference, having already seen (via her completed projects) that her meticulousness has a reward; award-worthy design. While I have worked with others who share her level of excellence, there are few like Amy, who is also fun to work with. I would give her 6 stars if that selection was made available.

Amy has been not only a pleasure to work with but has delivered a exactly what she promised. Her design ideas are not only fantastic, they also keep our personalities and preferences at the center of attention. We are still in the construction stage - I cant WAIT to see our end results! Amy works seamlessly with our contractors who have great respect for her. My husband and I can see why! Cheers to you Amy!

Having teamed with Amy on residential and commercial projects for over 10 years, I have always been and continue to be, so impressed! Her eye for color and style, hand-drawing skills and extraordinary vision have transformed many fine homes in the Valley into lovely, livable and often award-winning homes and spaces. She also is extremely well-connected with the best builders, architects and tradespeople. Amy is a super star and well deserves the recognition as a Master of the Southwest!

I've worked in conjunction with Amy and AB Design Elements for almost a decade now and I'm amazed every time I see one of their designs! It's even more of a surprise when I see the before and after effect. They transform inefficient spaces to flowing masterpieces that her clients want to spend time in and show off. Her nearly annual collection of awards from her contemporaries at ASID confirm that she's on the cutting edge of design and innovation. If you're looking for someone to be a partner in your vision of your home remodel, Amy and her team at AB Design Elements would be a great choice!

Amy and her Team at AB Design Elements have been so delightful to work with my husband and I. From my carpeting selection project to complete master bedroom remodel. They were both talented and mindful with our style and budget. We truly LOVE how it all transformed and know with their expertise it was an investment well worth it. We look forward to working with them again for future needs.
