When we started looking into a kitchen remodel recently, the options and decisions seemed overwhelming. I knew I needed help, so I enlisted the interior design expertise of Anna Zabriskie.
It was the best decision I could have made! Anna listened to everything I wanted to get from the project, and right away she had some ideas I hadn't considered. Having her to narrow down the choices to match my goals was a life saver. She quickly grasped my vision and added valuable insights.
She brought in the perfect vendors and helped me choose materials that would come together in a cohesive design. With respect to my limited budget, she was willing to do as much or as little as I needed. Having Anna was kind of like having an air traffic controller in the control tower.
I was still flying the plane, but she was providing valuable insight and helping me anticipate problems, solving them before they happened. Without Anna, I would have been flying blind. The end result was even better than I imagined. I was thrilled with my new kitchen! When we finally did decide to put the house on the market, the kitchen was a showstopper and the house sold in less than 24 hours! Thank you.

Anna was recommended to us as we were looking for a designer to work with us to achieve our wishes for a very contemporary look in our newly constructed house. Working with Anna has been beyond our expectations. Anna met with us to hear our ideas for this comprehensive design project. Anna quickly understood our wishes and went to work. In a very short time she presented us with awesome proposals for each room.
This included unique wall treatments, custom tile, rugs, furniture, lighting, upholstery, and paint colors. Her design proposals were well developed and have created a unique contemporary environment beyond what we could have imagined. Throughout the process Anna has been cheerful, witty, approachable, understanding, and collaborative.
Her knowledge of various vendors creating in our design concept is exceptional. Anna follows through with the vendors at all stages of the process thus relieving the client of any extra work. We could not wish for a better experience. We highly recommend Anna and look forward to our continued work with her over the years. She is simply one of the very best!

Anna's talent is evident. What the photographs don't show is how terrific she is to work with. A true story: When deciding on the approach for my master bath, I showed her a piece of shower trim that I liked. Based on that tiny bit of information, Anna recommended the tiles, flooring, grout, paint, and marble -- all with a half hour. Moreover, she worked well with the contractor, who later told me that she is one of the few designers who can draw up detailed plans. Overall, she listens, communicates, has great ideas, and commands the respect of everyone involved in a remodel, from customer to suppliers to the contractor. I recommend Anna without reservation.

Anna was incredibly easy and fun to work with! She was always there to give suggestions and guidance even as she listened carefully to ascertain our style, budget and wishes. Her expertise was invaluable in helping us to design a kitchen that we (and everyone who sees it) absolutely love! It's both beautiful and functional. While some designers can be difficult and overbearing, Anna has a remarkable ability to introduce her creative ideas in an enjoyable, respectful way. We would, and will continue to draw on her delightful personality and expertise for future projects!

Our experience with Anna was awesome. Meeting was through ordering a simple shower head for our master bath remodel. She offered to draw up a plan for us when we were stumped on our own. She brainstormed with us and our contractor until we came up with a plan. Anna's joyful, calm, creative, positive, encouraging, efficient way of doing things made it a pleasure to work with her.
She created a plan in CAD that helped us to envision our space and assisted our contractor in creating it. She is amazing at design and listened to what we wanted while helping us make choices when we were wavering, I highly recommend this gifted girl, Anna, for any project!

Anna is wonderful to work with. Over the years I have worked with a few decorators and Anna surpasses them all. She listened to our decorating thoughts and ideas and made sure the final design was the look we were after. Anna was extremely helpful, had great ideas and followed up timely. I will definitely work with Anna again.

Anna is the very best! We loved working with her on our bathroom. No matter what problems we ran into with hidden plumbing or electrical, she was able to find a solution that kept the heart of the design intact. Ten out of ten!
