Clients’ comments have included:
” When my partner and I bought our Cape Neddick home, I was hesitant to use a designer… So I was pleasantly surprised at what a huge boon Penny was to the project. If it weren’t for her, the house wouldn’t be nearly as interesting. She not only shared, but enhanced our vision in ways we never would have considered. There’s a wow-factor that comes from the variety of fabrics and textures to which Penny introduced us. Even our friends who are artists and decorators are impressed. ” ( D. Knauss )
” Penelope’s design talent, professionalism and collaborative approach are superb… She has a gift for sizing up a situation or potential space expediently, and always with the client’s needs, personal style and resources at the forefront… her attention to detail is exemplary in terms of ensuring design excellence. ” ( T. Powers )
” I trust Penny to manage things long distance. ” ( C. Goldman )
” Penny has an elegant, serene style that I have felt comfortable with all along and her color sense has transformed my homes. Even my once-skeptical husband now sees the value in dollars spent on professional design. ” ( S. Burns )
” This was our first exposure to interior design and we found the experience to be rewarding and informative. Service was nothing less than friendly and courteous… We absolutely love the way the rooms compliment one another; they have a very warm and inviting atmosphere. ” ( T. Jordan )
