Lisa helped me select the paint colors for my entire newly remodeled house, and I wouldn’t change a single color. Lisa is friendly, easy-going, and talented. She has great taste. She is also flexible and able to adjust based on client feedback and vision. I felt like Lisa really understood the look I wanted to achieve, and she knew the specific paint colors to achieve that look. I am very happy with the final result. I also must mention that I really appreciated Lisa’s singular focus on my project. Dealing with contractors and deadlines can be very stressful, but Lisa’s availability and attention to my project put me at ease. She always delivered on time and answered immediately when I texted or called with those inevitable last-minute questions. Working with Lisa was truly a pleasure. Jen F./Haddonfield, NJ
Lisa of ställe design was absolutely a lifesaver to me during my project with my 3rdfloor bathroom. She had great vision, creativity and attention to detail. We were able to stay in my budget and it looked so fresh and pretty when it was done. From the choice of tile to the fixtures to a gorgeous soft paint color, Lisa had it nailed. She is not only a wonderful designer but she is meticulous and thoughtful in every way possible. Lisa has helped me get organized in several rooms in my home. Our latest project was my daughter’s room on the 3rdfloor. It was a complete make-over by the time she was finished! She is sensitive to my “clutter” and kindly and gentle helps me say “buh-bye” to things in my home that aren’t pretty or necessary. And she makes it fun in the process. I highly recommend Lisa, she’s the best! Meg B./Haddonfield, NJ
My sister was currently working with ställe design and highly recommended I contact Lisa. My basement was in need of a makeover. The existing basement was a sterile room with no defined space. My children had no deisre to hang down there with each other or with their friends. The room felt disorganized and lacked personality. After meeting with Lisa, she came up with a design plan that created a warm and welcoming space by adding a TV area, an eating area, new furniture and new paint for the walls. Lisa was so easy to work with, she is upbeat, has great ideas and is very professional. I always felt comfortable discussing ideas and Lisa was open to finding a design style that reflected my aesthetic. As soon as the room was painted with totally cool large horizontal stripes, I was blown away. That was the WOW factor! Everyone loves the new basement. It is now a room that the kids enjoy. They hang out there all the time with their friends. The room is not only functional but SUPER STYLISH! It is beyond my expectations. We are blown away with Lisa’s vision. She really nailed my style and made it come to life. She makes it seem effortless and fun! Carolyn F./Haddonfield, NJ
My experience with Lisa DeMarino of ställe has been transforming at every turn. Words cannot express how grateful I am for her design expertise.I embarked upon our renovation and redecorating project with trepidation. Once my husband and I decided to do something with our Haddonfield Dutch colonial, I spent countless nights tossing and turning. While my husband remained (almost) exasperatingly calm, the process completely overwhelmed me. I was terrified that we would make a series of ghastly – and costly — mistakes when choosing tile, paint, furniture, fixtures, textiles, and wall art. We have a long history of fumbling with our design choices. (For example, our bedroom walls were painted a highly embarrassing shade of purple from 2003 thru 2008.) Fortunately my husband, Doug, and I are consummate couch potatoes. The years we’ve spent as armchair quarterbacks glued to home improvement shows finally paid off when Doug insisted on hiring a designer to help us with our project. A long-time friend recommended Lisa … and the rest is design history. Lisa provided us with direction, support, resources, and keen imagination. She also kept our budget in mind by encouraging us to look to an array of sources for furniture and accessories. The result is a truly original home that reflects our family’s tastes and character. Lisa’s involvement made our home-improvement project rewarding and enjoyable. She’s extremely patient, always listened, and welcomed our ideas. Lisa ran great deal of interference with our contractors and architect; she didn’t back down until our requests were satisfied. She was highly accessible throughout the process. Lisa always made us feel like we were her top priority. Our home has evolved in ways we never imagined. As I walk from room to room, I’m hard pressed to choose my favorite elements and pieces. I simply love everything we’ve done! I’ve recommended ställe to my friends and neighbors. I have every confidence that their homes will benefit from Lisa’s talent for ‘gracefully hip detailed design’. Barbara L./Haddonfield, NJ
Lisa did an incredible job transforming my 3rd floor into two cool, hip and awesome bedrooms for my teenage boys. She asked me to describe their personalities and made each of their new spaces reflective of their individuality. Lisa also managed the renovations of the third floor bathroom, which is out-of-a-magazine beautiful! Lisa was professional and timely and the project was completed quickly and well within our budget. We have a high-end designer look for much less. Lisa added value to our home and I highly recommend her for anything you need for your home-whether you want a fresh updated look or you need a complete overhaul with renovations…Lisa can handle it. She took the stress out of having to do it myself. Tina D./Haddonfield, NJ
We requested Lisa to renovate our master bedroom. We had a very limited budget, but needed many tasks completed such as lighting, closet doors, painting and design. She was timely and efficient in the completion of the project. It was well worth the money to have Lisa complete the renovation, as she coordinated all contractor activities, shopping and addressed any issues that arose during the project. With both of us working full-time, we would have never been able to complete the project within the same timeline and without the headache. It was wonderful to work with a sincere designer that was able to incorporate both of our styles with ease. We love our updated room and are looking forward to working with Lisa on future renovations. Deidra B./Haddonfield, NJ
