Alexa and her team are fabulous! They are all friendly and helpful. What I loved about working with Alexa was her ease, responsiveness, and of course, her eye. When I didn't like something, she worked with me to figure it out and never made me feel like I was an annoying client. I would highly recommend AHR designs.

Reviews
HIGHLY recommend! As recent empty nesters, my husband and I wanted to refresh our home which hadn't seen a lick of new paint in 15 years. We don't enjoy nor have the time to design and shop for paint and furnishings. We tried a few local designers first, even paid one for a few months' work but stopped when we realized we were being sold things without being listened to.
A custom kitchen designer who we selected to redesign our kitchen recommended Alexa, saying that she is the ONLY designer he would ever recommend. Now we understand why.
At the in-home consultation she listened to our long rambling wants and desires list, understood and respected our budget, and held our hand through the whole process, making herself available via text and email to answer all our endless questions. We asked her to "treat us like toddlers", offering us Choice A or Choice B to keep things simple, and she did just that. We were nervous about buying custom furniture without trying it first, but we have been absolutely delighted with the results. Alexa, understanding our taste and stye, recommended colors, patterns, and fabrics we would never in a million years have chosen for ourselves. The finished product far exceeds our expectations.
A few weeks have passed since "install day" when all the new furniture, rugs, and window treatments were delivered and we still walk around the house amazed at how beautiful everything looks, how well the house reflects our personality, taste, and style, and how this "brand new house" feels like home.
Don't waste your time or money with anyone else.
We wanted a modern kitchen that still fit the style of our 1860’s Victorian- not an easy task. And we could not be happier with the kitchen Alexa and her team designed for us. It’s a gorgeous space!!
