I had ideas for the living and dining rooms. Sherri and John had solutions. I loved their enthusiasm and felt my voice was heard in the process. Excited to see this come together in the next few months.

My experience with Elegant Simplicity exceeded even my own expectations. The team worked around my complicated and demanding schedule to design and implement the key rooms in my home to fit me and my lifestyle. In addition Christy was able to help me organise my home in ways that even surprised an organised person ?. I highly recommend working with John and Sherri who will provide a personalised experience and cater to your personal needs!

Sherri and John helped us refresh and transform our home and we couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. They helped us with a whole-house interior paint and lighting upgrade, as well as transforming our basement and bonus rooms into beautiful, functional spaces. Paired with decluttering and organizing, we are feeling lighter and can focus on enjoying time together in our new spaces. We would highly recommend Elegant Simplicity!

Sherri is not just an extremely talented designer, but she also genuinely cares about her clients! Sherri has helped me through remodeling 2 bathrooms after some water damage in our house and I couldn't be more pleased with how things turned out. Even when the remodel hit the usual snags, Sherri always stepped up to the plate to fix things and make sure that we're not compromising on quality. I'm getting lots of compliments on the bathrooms! I will definitely use Sherri's services again in any future home remodel project I have.Service: Refurbishment

Sherri and John did a FANTASTIC job helping us in rebuilding our home lost in a fire from the foundation up. We had our own builder, however the real value was clear in assisting us in picking out colors and finishes. What was really great is how they were able to streamline the process to give us the help we needed. We were fairly comfortable navigating with our builder and his sub contractors, however what ES provided was a huge comfort level as we chose paint, stains, hardwoods, carpets, doors, hardware, lighting and the list goes on. Trust me , this can be an intimidating task. We chose several options in all categories directly with the vendors and then bounced everything off Sherri to make sure we were not jumping off a cliff. End result is everything looks current and amazing. Worth every penny!Service: Refurbishment

I'm an avid HGTV watcher and have always dreamed of having a house looking like a professional did it. I used to save pages from Architectural Digest as a kid, my husband and I have remodeled houses on our own, and although I'd like to think I have a good sense of what works there are just some things a professional is trained to know and see. That being said, I wasn't looking for someone to do start-to-finish design work and most people I contacted seemed to do only large scale ($$$$$) work. We recently moved to Kirkland and just needed someone to help with design work here and there, paint colors, decor rearranging (there IS an art to it), and creative ideas to overcome certain house design issues. What I love about Sherri, even more than her positive energy and creative genius, her flexibility with what you need and how and when you get there, is that she isn't afraid to share her insight and educate you on why she does what she does. She involves you in her thinking process and teaches you the reasons for the conclusions she comes to and possibilities for things you may not have thought of. (Covering a hallway and adjacent ceiling in shiplap?!? *gasp* Yes please! ) She works with you the way it is best FOR YOU. I am so excited to see this project come to fruition and that I chose Sherri to show me the way!

Sherri and John helped transform our living room, entryway and family room into rooms that truly feel beautiful AND welcoming...which is exactly what we were craving. Their warm and knowledgeable approach really helped us not be so overwhelmed by the Interior design decisions for our home. From paint color to furniture to a fireplace redesign - they guided us through it all. Sherri and John even came in at the end and styled our bookshelves and entryway with all new curated items that matched our style and the desired feel of our home. It was so fun to have that “big reveal” moment when they were done styling. I can’t say enough about how much we loved working with this couple. If you are ready to transform a “meh” room into something you love - stop researching other options and just call Elegant Simplicity.Service: Refurbishment

Sherri and John have now guided us with both the exterior and interior of our home design. My husband and I purchased an older home that was in need of updating. We are not first time home buyers, but this was the first time we purchased a home that required significant updates. They have been fantastic in guiding us on how to update the home with our style but also ensuring we maintain the charm of this 1925 home. They work incredibly well as a team, listen intently to our wants/needs, and provide a thorough design outline- so that getting multiple bids for the project is incredibly easy! Moreover, they were able to give recommendations on painting companies and landscapers that we could use and we went with both of their recommendations! Sherri and John have made updating this house fun and easy and we plan to continue to work with them on projects to come!

I needed a lot of help with getting my place organized. In doing so, I felt as though it would bring a feeling of relief with not seeing clutter and things now having a home.I have tried doing this myself before, but I simply got overwhelmed and nothing was getting done.First and foremost, both Sherri and John were great to work with! They definitely keep focused, and the results are observed immediately. They definitely helped me in every organizational area that I struggled with, especially with respect to kitchen organization, getting rid of unneeded items, and filing paperwork in my office. I am very thankful I had hired them.At this stage, I have only worked with them from an organizational standpoint, but intend on hiring them from a design standpoint as well, and will post a review as to how that ends up going.

Elegant Simplicity is outstanding! When my husband and I began our search for a company to help us with Interior Design we came across Elegant Simplicity. It seemed like they would be a great match with what we were looking for. We decided to set up a clarity call with Sherri, provide her with an overview of the areas we are looking to change, and also areas we weren't exactly sure where to start. Sherri was able to provide great suggestions and give us options as to what their company could do for us. Sherri was enjoyable to speak with, and understood what direction we were looking to go. We decided to move forward with a Design Consultation with Sherri and her husband John. When we met Sherri and John for our Design Consultation they were on time, professional and both of them have an upbeat personality that made it an enjoyable experience. They got straight to work, asked many questions and provided great suggestions. If for any reason myself or my husband started talking about another area in the house they made sure to bring the conversation back to where it was to confirm we covered all of the details necessary before moving on. They are a great team! They had ideas I would have never thought of. I am so excited to work with Sherri and John moving forward and we highly recommend Elegant Simplicity!!

I HIGHLY recommend Elegant Simplicity! Sherri & John have been a HUGE help in the process of building our home & choosing materials. Sherri provided her expertise throughout the process, and guided us to make good choices, which brought us peace of mind. I also love the convenience of scheduling the virtual calls to just review things quickly & discuss ideas when things get overwhelming. They brought up so many things we would have never thought of or considered. We are excited to continue to use them to decorate our new home!

We bought a house that had a great interior but we disliked the exterior colors. I Have been in a quandary as to how to approach color choices with existing awnings and deck. Roof color had me stymied as well. Sherri was such a breath of fresh air. She listened to my list of complications and then came to visit with great ideas and a ton of paint samples. I am thrilled to say that all my procrastination just needed Sherri’s knowledge and vision. I absolutely love the colors we selected and don’t think I would have been pleased without her input. Thank you, I am beyond happy with the results!Service: Refurbishment

We hired Sherri for two hours to help us pick out a wood floor. It turned out to be so much more! There were a ton of small tweaks they suggested for our living space and bedroom. They also helped us pick paint colors, fixtures and taught us some basic house design concepts that we quickly put into place. This is such a great idea for anyone who isn't ready for a full redecoration but needs helpful and specific advice from an expert.

Sherri came as a guest speaker to our classes to speak on the practice of Simplicity. Her presentation was professional, engaging, inspiring, and extremely helpful to our students. They had nothing but good things to say about her. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her as a teacher or guest speaker to your school or organization.
