“I was looking for a designer when I purchased my new apartment in Manhattan. I was overwhelmed with all that I had to do. A friend referred me to Marlene. When we met Marlene took the time to learn about what my needs were and my sense of style. I have two active sons — a teenager and soon to be teenager — and utilizing every inch of my new space was paramount. Marlene worked closely with the architect and the general contractor to make sure that the project was going seamlessly. Her eye for design is spot on. When she first walked in she had an immediate vision to make the most of my space. She helped me select the right lighting, molding, paint colors, and wall paper. She even picked out accessories that I love. Marlene was so patient and really wonderful to work with. She was always armed with great ideas and eager to execute. You can really tell that she loves what she does and it reflects in her work. After working with Marlene my contemporary modern Manhattan apartment became a reality.”
