We spent many months working with Denise as the interior designer for our custom home. She was an absolute pleasure to work with! We felt that she understood our vision and style quickly and with ease, and brought to the table some wonderful and creative ideas that we were incredibly excited to implement in our home! We are extremely happy with the results. Denise was also very flexible and helped us keep our affairs in order and our minds at ease throughout this project. She was able to accommodate our busy schedules by coming out to meet us as needed. Her communication was very timely, clear and concise. She made the daunting task of picking out tons of fixtures and materials fly right by with ease using a very systematic and organized approach (and was very patient with us when we couldn't decide on certain things!). She was also able to work closely with our builder and customize the type of services that she delivered so that they coordinated famously with parts of the project that the builder had covered. Thankfully, she was also able to identify and help correct various issues as they arose by coordinating with the builder and trades throughout the project. Overall we had a wonderful experience working with Denise and we would absolutely recommend Denise to anyone looking to work with an interior designer.

I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Denise on numerous projects over this past year. Denise has been nothing short of fantastic. Her interpersonal skills, attention to detail, vast knowledge of the industry and understanding her Clients has easily made her one of our top choices when choosing a designer to work with. Denise has the innate ability to understand her clients wishes/vision and turns this vision into reality. She is extremely resourceful in sourcing materials/equipment at affordable prices, while not compromising the overall look/feel. In addition to all this, she works extremely well in the “team” environment; always aware of times frames and critical dates and never lets the project design slide. I would highly recommend Denise for any residential and/or commercial interior design project, both big and small!

Denise helped usher us through our first renovation project, and we could not have done it without her. We came with some ideas, and Denise instantly picked up on what we were looking for and her designs enhanced our overall vision. She designed with our budget in mind, so we managed to pull off a great look without breaking the bank. What made Denise invaluable to us was her ability to problem solve. We ran into several snags during our renovation, and when our general contractor would get stuck, Denise was right there with a potential solution or workaround. Every part of the design process was smooth, and we are so happy with our home! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Denise and Puddle + Pine Projects to anyone looking to start a renovation project.

Denise’s strong sense of design, advanced knowledge of construction means and methods, and excellent computer skills are a complex and valuable skill set not easily found in professionals even 15 years her senior. While working with Denise, I witnessed her diverse portfolio of skills, including budgeting, progress tracking, construction support and project management. It is without hesitation that I strongly recommend Denise not only as a talented young professional, but as a first class individual.
