MELINAMADE

I give Melina a 5 star review because she exceeded all of my expectations for my kitchen/living room remodel project in San Francisco. She is not only a designer and has architectural talents as well. She understands construction and can interface with the contractors and cabinets makers on details that are so important in completing a project. She designed my kitchen and living room space and turned it into a piece of heaven. She always answered my emails and if we were unable to meet, zoom worked very well in moving the project forward. She has fabulous taste and the pictures attest to her talents! Look no further! Melina is simply the best.

Highly, highly recommend Melinamade Design! I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Melina. From our very first meeting, she was forthright, transparent, professional, and personable. This was my first remodel, so I needed a fair amount of handholding, and Melina was always happy and patient, guiding me through every step with the utmost respect and care. Her attention to detail in her designs made all the difference--she is a true talent and transformed my kitchen and fireplace into extraordinary spaces. No detail was overlooked; Melina thought of everything and the results are exquisite. Melina was consistently present throughout the project, overseeing every aspe...

I had a powder room that I needed to turn into a full bathroom, and wanted to make sure it looked nice and was done right, so decided I needed a professional designer, not just a contractor for the work. Melina was very nice to work with through the entire process. In the planning phase, she looked at the house, asked what I was going for, and took those ideas and ran with them. She worked with me on both the budget and the design. She came up with a full set of autocad plans and list of materials that I was able to use to get quotes from contractors. Because they were so detailed, down to the plumbing, electrical, and who is responsible for what materials, I was able to get very accurate...

We worked with Melina on the remodel of our winter home in the Palm Springs area. During the project she displayed a wide array of talents, beginning with conceptual design, then selection of finishes, development of detailed plans, coordination of engineering requirements, contractor interviews and selection, permitting, project management during the construction process, and selection of furnishings. Melina did a wonderful job with all of these aspects of the project and her performance met or exceeded our expectations across the spectrum of work. She is very organized and was a pleasure to work with. We are very happy with the outcome and wouldn't hesitate to work with her again on fu...

I'm so glad we chose Melina to help us with our remodel. She listened carefully to what we wanted, gave us multiple options and then promptly created the plans and successfully got them approved by our (picky) town planning board. She then helped us select a contractor and manage that process. During the remodeling process, she was on top of things, dealing with the inevitable issues that came up (we have a very, very old house, and some things were not as expected when the walls were opened up). She helped me manage some issues that came up with the contractor and overall kept a level head. She is very knowledgeable about the various issues and patiently answered our questions. Meli...
