“My husband and I love to cook so initially reached out to Cheryl to help with a remodel of our kitchen. Subsequently, we decided to make this our “forever home” and therefore, the scope increased over time to include much of our home including selection of new furniture. Cheryl was amazing to work with, was extremely detailed and approached the project with a wonderful sense of the interface between design and function. She also integrated our “funky” but much loved existing pieces into the overall design. The end result is spectacular and we are looking forward to enjoying our new home for a very long time.”

“My sister found this team and I went to a design meeting with her and knew instantly I do not need to look any further for someone to work with me on my project. We built our dream home from the ground up. Cheryl LISTENED to all of our desires and dreams and went above and beyond with enthusiasm to make our home a reality. She is professional and has a gifted eye for space planning, design and the perfect finish materials. Her drawings were accurate and no detail missed which made the building process as easy as it could possibly be. She was on time, organized and prepared for all meetings.”

“From our first meeting, it was clear that she listened to the vision I had in mind. Her questions helped clarify what had previously been ideas. She took the photos and descriptions and provided several plan choices, then a detailed plan, which included technical drawings for the contractor and sub-contractors to work from. Her knowledge of architecture, lighting, and design and her ability to complete the different phases in a timely way, helped contribute to the overall good experience of building this home. She always had several choices of style and cost, respecting my choices and offered wonderful surprises, to make certain areas of the home special.”

“Cheryl and her team are the best! Not only is she great to work with, very responsive, creative, and highly professional, but she delivers a high-quality, complete product with attention to detail and budget. We did a lot of our own research on products, and Cheryl was accommodating but also willing to share her expertise and steer us in the right direction. The subcontractors we worked with, many of whom did not know Cheryl personally, all commented on how complete and clear her plans and directions were, and how easy they were to follow. We are already planning to work with her again on our next project.”

“Her attention to detail, including architectural items like sconces, niches and arches, resulted in the exact look I wanted. Everyone on my renovation team – contractor, subcontractors, cabinet maker – leveraged her drawings. It kept everyone on the same page. Those drawings were very detailed, down to showing where each electrical switch should be placed. When requesting quotes from multiple contractors, I provided them with the plans and drawings. Because of the level of detail in the plans, I was able to compare “apples to apples” across all the estimates. Cheryl and team are great (and fun!) to work with.”

“I can’t speak highly enough of Cheryl and the team at Hamilton-Gray Design. We had never used a designer in our remodels before, but they completely SAVED our project this time, providing incredibly detailed and inspired design that really brought our vision to life. We remodeled our entire house using their designs and our contractor said he had never worked with a designer as detailed, accurate, easy to communicate with, and talented as Cheryl. Thank goodness we found Hamilton-Gray Design!”

“Cheryl created an astoundingly cohesive flow, adding charm and personality to these pedestrian areas. She was on time and under budget. She is unrelenting about the aesthetic impact but equally cost-conscious, Cheryl took the lead in repurposing where possible, and finding a range of price points from which we could choose. Cheryl was so precise and insightful that we did not need an architect. she worked seamlessly with our contractor. In both renovations, Cheryl worked closely with us, listening intently to our goals. She has created our dream house — a creative flow and cohesive space that is the epitome of charm and style.”
