Carol Freedman Design

Carol did terrific work for me. I was particularly pleased with how she helped me with room design. She has a good sense of space and came up with arrangements that were not obvious to me but really worked. I first used her over 15 years ago to do my family room. The fabrics and chairs have been great. When I went to update this past fall, she found me fabrics that had all the same durability and functionality as my old ones, but were fresh and brought in new colors. I really appreciate the fact thst the chairs themselves have stood the test of time. She has also worked with me on my master bathroom design.

Every great designer is known for having a style or look to their work that serves as a calling card for their talent. While Carol is certainly a great designer, her "look" and her "style" adapt to each client and their home. Never one to see herself in constant repeat, Carol gives each a client a wonderful home to live in that is unique and personal. As a sales representative, I have been fortunate to witness Carol in her element, pulling colors, patterns, images, and furnishings that soon fill her clients homes with warmth, life, complexity, and above all....joyous color. An avid music lover, Carol calls upon her inner musician as she creates a rhythmic feel within her projects, as she plays color upon texture and pattern upon form in a melodious blend that makes each home sing. In addition, Carol's use of original artwork and custom furnishings underscore the livable elegance and casual comfort she imbues into each home. I was excited to be a partner with Carol on her outdoor project in Bethesda, Maryland.I knew from prior experience I how happy her clients were going to be with the finished project. The results were nothing less than stellar.

Carol requested my services to collaborate with her and draft a media cabinet and window seat for her clients' master bedroom remodel. I recently had the opportunity to see the results of the built-ins and how they related to the overall design scheme. Carol totally captured the style and feeling of the space, while utilizing every available inch to its advantage with the built-ins. As always, she added her colorful touches creating just what the client requested....creative Arts and Crafts....Bravo, Carol!

Carol has worked with us on a variety of projects including selecting paint color, wallpaper, fabrics, and furniture. I can't say enough good things about Carol and her working style. She is a very talented designer with a fresh style. While her personal style is more modern, she is able to easily work within our more transitional aesthetic. She has a wonderful sense of color and is great at helping homeowners to create a warm and livable environment. She is extremely thorough and organized which is really key when you have a busy schedule and are trying to juggle home projects with work, travel, kids, etc. She is very good at working with vendors and keeping them on track which is particularly important given what I have found to be the general flakiness of the home furnishings industry. She is very practical and is able to work within the budget that you specify. She is always professional and does a good job of brokering between the disagreements that can come up when both husband and wife have strong opinions about design.

I asked Carol Freedman to re-vamp the main and lower levels of my home because I have always admired her personal style ... she has flair and loves color. What I most appreciated about the entire experience of working with Carol is that she read my taste perfectly. I requested that she not overwhelm me with too many choices, and those that she did bring me in furnishings, fabrics, wall color and artists were sensational -- exactly what i wanted! There is now a richness in colors, textures, shapes and patterns in my home that I could not believe was possible. Among Carol's accomplishments in my home are: completely new wall colors on the main and lower levels; all new furniture/fabrics/artwork for my Great Room; creating my office which is now sensational personal space with built-in desk and and cabinetry; selecting 4 area rugs (some custom, some not) for various spaces; completely redesigning our master bedroom custom wall color, bedding, artwork and window treatment; and, finishing our dining room. There was never any pressure, and I felt a part of the process the entire time. I am just delighted!
