Testimonials
“Tara is amazing! As a cosmetic Dermatologist in Miami, the aesthetics of my new office was extremely important to me. Tara’s skillful blending of colorful pastels, beautiful wallpapers, a glass wall for my office which brings natural light into the entire hallway and showcases my bright pink desk (it is Miami!) surpassed my expectations. Tara’s joy while decorating is infectious and she always valued my input (tweaking it as needed!). Designing from a distance may have been an issue for some, but her mind can visualize the components necessary for the perfect layout until they are found and put in place. Every day patients comment on the beauty of my office and how it puts them at ease. Every day when I open the door to my office....I feel the same way. Thank you Tara! I am so lucky to have found you and I can’t wait for you to decorate my house!”
