“…Above and beyond what I was expecting.”

“I very much enjoyed working with Mary and Illumination Interior Design. She went above and beyond what I was expecting! When I decided that my personal residence needed a change, Mary was very attentive to what I was looking for in our initial phone call and it made the process easier for when she consulted in person. She came prepared with the tools necessary to plan and design for the goals I had in mind. She really took the time to listen, think about the designs, and afterwards, created well laid out plans for the future of my residence. I very much appreciated the creativity and professionalism Mary had while helping me with a process that I was really struggling with. I would highly recommend Illumination Interior Design and will most certainly use Mary's services for any future projects.”

“My only regret in this journey is that I did not hire Mary from the beginning!”

“Today my husband and I rolled our construction loan into a mortgage for our very first house. We are thousands of dollars under budget and still came out with better features in our house than we ever thought we could afford! Thanks to Mary at Illumination Interior Design we were able to create a space that connects our aesthetic with our lifestyle. We couldn’t be more pleased with the result. A few months after building began, I became overwhelmed with the growing mountain of decisions I was having to make on my own. A friend recommended Mary to me and we began to email about the process. My only regret in this journey is that I did not hire Mary from the beginning! Mary not only assisted us in selecting wall color, flooring, tile, and countertops, but she spent hours creating drawings, floor plans, finding cabinetry, tracking down deals, and speaking with various product reps. I know we barely touched on the wealth of knowledge that Mary has to offer! If you are getting ready to build a home or remodel, even if you have done it before, I strongly recommend you contact Mary at Illumination Interior Design before you get any further into the process.”

“When I walk into my house I still cant help but smile…”

“Working with Illumination Interior Designs was a wonderful experience! I had just moved into a new home and Mary created a modern and comfortable space that I just love! She worked with me to blend my current furniture with fresh accents and contemporary decor that fit my style and arranged them within my space to create a straight-up masterpiece of comfort and charm. When I walk into my house I still can’t help but smile at the work she did! Mary worked within my budget and even created unique, one-of-a-kind artwork that I am in awe of (seriously, its so great!). She’s creative, efficient, passionate, and really spent time and energy to understand what I was looking for, even when I couldn’t put it into words. I’ve recommended her to friends, coworkers, (and my hairdresser), and will eagerly recommend her to anyone who is looking to update their space, liven up their home, or create a harmonious work or living space from scratch!”

”We felt supported through the process and never felt pressured.”

My husband and I bought our first house and we were at a loss with design ideas once we made it past the paint. Mary with Illumination Interior Designs took our vision and turned it into a reality with helpful virtual design ideas and many product options. We felt supported throughout the process and never felt pressured. We are in love with the changes we have made so far and plan to continue working with Illumination!

“Our conversations about multiple projects have helped me develop the kind of atmosphere I want to create both inside and outside of my business.”

“My expectations were completely surpassed! Mary is responsive, thoughtful, thorough, and understands her client's creative vision. Our conversations about multiple projects have helped me develop the kind of atmosphere I want to create both inside and outside of my business. My ask for a quick design for a facade upgrade of my store was met with a kind of speed I didn't think was possible. My request was ridiculous - to produce a mock-up in under two days, and yet Mary produced it AND a quote on the fly. I didn't expect it was possible, but wow, she did! I absolutely recommend Illumination Interior Design to others.”

“The two-hour consultation flew by, but it was money well spent!”

I used Illumination Interior Design for a consultation on my (mostly) DIY home remodel project. I had a lot of ideas in my head but was struggling to put it all together, and really needed help picking out paint colors. I walked through the house with Mary and as I discussed my plans, she either affirmed my ideas or pointed me in the right direction. She helped me pick out paint colors that I might not have selected on my own, and I’m very happy with the choices. I had the inspiration, but Mary helped me put it all together. I went from a point where I had a jumbled mess of ideas in my head to being able to truly envision the finished product. The two-hour consultation flew by, but it was money well spent! As I move on to future phases of my project, I won’t hesitate to call Illumination again.
