I was just walking around admiring the house, which we have plenty of time to do these days. And thought of all the little touches you added and big miracles you pulled off. And Karl’s talents on the moulding in the front hall (and everywhere). And . . . the whole team you assembled. The leaded window you and Therese designed for the screened porch. The little arch over the dining room buffet that matches all the others. And that dining room buffet that looks original to the house. And on and on.

Carrigan has transformed our lives, not once but twice. First, she re-envisioned our master bath and closet into a highly functional, elegant sanctuary, while upgrading a second floor library and office, all of which look brand new ten years later. Most impressive, she recently brought our kitchen and first floor into the 21st century, through a brilliant vision that honored the home’s history but created a far more natural flow, functionality and breathtaking sight lines. Her design and building skills are unparalleled and she is masterful at staying on schedule.

She’s an invaluable homeowner’s resource because she’s fluent in both languages, that of the designer and that of the builder. This fluency enables her to move easily between those two worlds – so that the expertly crafted and the beautifully designed produce a unified outcome for her clients.

We have had Ms. Curtis undertake major projects on our house several times. She worked on a major addition to the house; she did gut rehabs of two bathrooms; and she bumped out a living room wall and put in a gorgeous bay window. Also, she did lots of interior design consulting for us. Her work has been excellent in every way. She is absolutely a person of her word, she has followed through with every last detail on every job. Her aesthetic sense is fabulous. I have referred her to many of my friends. At least three families who I am close friends with have contracted with Ms. Curtis to do major work on their houses, and all have been thrilled with her work. We almost have a fan club!!
