Terry Thoeming, homeowner and realtor, Remax of Cherry Creek
Sheila Smith has an incredible eye and coaches you to fabulous solutions, often intuiting situations that the average eye doesn’t even see. She will help you rearrange, reuse and reinvent what’s already in your home.
Thirty years singing opera may have fine-tuned her sense of design; but Sheila combines innate great style with a very open mind, intelligence, and a generous spirit of collaboration.
We gutted and remodeled our basement last summer (2008). I knew conceptually what I wanted, but couldn’t come up with a color scheme. Within an hour and a half (including a trip to the paint store), Sheila had assessed the situation, we had it sorted out. Then, as a bonus, she helped me select a new accent color. Three small and three large pillows later, the space vibrated with added depth. Sheila also got incredible results by helping me rearrange the art and furniture we already had.
My husband and I work together in residential real estate, with a combined tenure of almost 50 years. In the process of listing a home, we spotted several areas that needed serious addressing. Neither of us could offer any help; but on our recommendation, our client hired Sheila. Painting one room and two half-walls, reinventing a basement room, buying a few items that will work in our client’s new home, and repositioning existing items made all the difference: Sheila Smith Design. This beautiful home now has that extra-added “pop” that will get it sold.
Sheila is a genuine discovery, a real value. |
