"Laureen uniquely combines the talents of a creative artist and a reliable professional. She has not only imagination and exquisite taste, but also a great deal of respect for deadlines and attention to detail."
Stelios Papadopolous, Great Neck, NY

 

Laureen has worked with several of the owners at The Chateau Residence Club. They have been extremely pleased with her work ethic and project management, her attitude and most importantly her results. Because I have seen what Laureen can do, and how well she does it, she and I are now working on redecorating the common areas of The Chateau. She is always a pleasure to work with.

"The ease of working with Laureen and her staff diminished any fear of making decisions from a long distance. Her ability to control the time of completion, by working with preferred subcontractors, was one of the best assets LHID brought to the table when choosing an Interior Design firm."

President, United Properties

 

"Laureen was essential to a wonderful transformation of our Bachelor Gulch Home. She was a very capable construction manager for a major renovation project, ensuring high quality and timely completion. She was exceptionally creative in the selection of wall coverings, rugs, window treatments, art, furniture and accessories, and integrating them into existing décor. She is committed to providing good taste at a reasonable cost. We would recommend her to anyone wanting an outstanding designer."

Cheryl and Ray Holman, St. Louis, MO

 

At first we were a little apprehensive about remodeling our place and not living close by -- until we met Laureen. Laureen took charge of the entire project and managed every aspect of the remodel from selecting samples for us to approve to personally supervising the sub-contractors. She even coordinated delivery and stored our new furniture until the install date. What a stress-free experience it was.

Bob and Nancy Fowler, Beaver Creek, Colorado

 

"Furnishing a mountain home from afar can be quite a challenge. Laureen and her team made the process a pleasure, as they facilitated the design, ordering and installation process with hard work, professionalism and personality."

Ned Grace, Managing Director

When we purchased our home in Beaver Creek, we were faced with the challenge of a complete redecoration, including painting, lighting, a relatively complex A/V system, furnishings, and art works, to be completed in less than four months. The project was further complicated by our residing in San Francisco and only being in Colorado for a week between the time that we closed on the property and when we hoped to occupy our redecorated home. We were delighted with the result! Laureen did a fantastic job of translating our vision into a beautiful reality. Her excellent design skills, project management expertise, and experience in working in Beaver Creek made this the most pleasant and hassle free project that we have ever undertaken."

Bob & Kathy Bond, Beaver Creek, Colorado

 

"Laureen took us through the interior design process from start to finish by providing us with many options and giving us advice and opinions when appropriate.
In addition to superb taste, we would note particularly two valuable attributes LHID demonstrated consistently on the job:

    1. Great relations with local trade and craftsmen. They are extremely demanding and unwilling to accept substandard work, but the trade people respect them because they are clear in setting expectations.
    2. They listen very well and were flexible in changing the design approach when something didn't work out as well as we originally thought it would.
