exceptional results

I have worked with Tanna on two different projects now and both experiences and end results were exceptional. She is able to take your style and escalate it to an entirely new level that you couldn't imagine. I highly recommend Tanna by Design!

creative energy

This review is long overdue! After 5 years in business, our salon was rapidly growing so we needed to add more stations and increase functionality. We had found Tanna through the Snohomish Magazine and from other websites listing interior designers in the area. We interviewed a few other designers before making our final decision. We chose Tanna because of her portfolio and her creative energy. She understood our needs, was very professional, and made herself available anytime I needed. I am so happy that I had chosen Tanna! She picked color, flooring, furniture, textures, etc that I would have never picked but it all made perfect creative sense! Tanna was even able to work around our tight budget. Our spa guests love our updated look and it also helped us stand out amongst other salons and generate more business.

delightful to work with

I knew Tanna many years ago before husbands and families. She has always been a great person to be around. When she moved back to Yakima and I saw she had started a design business, I was eager to see what she was doing. I have watched her succeed quickly with many awards. When my husband and I decided to remodel our master bathroom I knew I wanted to contact her. We discussed what we wanted and didn’t want and she came back with a design that we loved. The project went well and we absolutely love the finished product. I will definitely utilize her creativity in the future. She is delightful to work with and I have really enjoyed getting back in touch with her. 2 Thumbs up and **** four of four stars.

worth her weight in gold

Worth her weight in gold! Wow! Tanna is a fantastic design professional. Couldn't be happier with our finished great room. Tanna listens to what her clients want and feel from a room. We wanted our "great room" to be comfy, cozy and beautiful. We got all three. She personally selected our live edge slab of maple, and had the perfect craftsman in mind to finish it. She did space planning, lighting, furnishing and decor. Won't do another room without her. Thank you Tanna.

easy to reach

Tanna did a great job designing my game room and bar. She had a lot of ideas on bar design, fireplace layout, lighting, colors and accessories. Tanna always responded to my questions in a timely manner and was always easy to get a hold of. She has a great sense of textures/colors and how they will combine to to get the result that a person wants. I would highly recommend Tanna for your interior design work and will use her again in the future!

virtual design

We're doing a new construction in NY and we contacted Tanna for her "a la carte" services to help us with the random things we needed guidance on and for her general experience in homes and design that we lacked. She is not only incredibly responsive to our emails/questions, but she delivers on everything we expect and more. She has helped us TREMENDOUSLY with planning out our forever home and she has likely already saved us from making mistakes that would cost us lots of money down the road. We plan to use her for more steps in the construction planning process and eventually the interior design as well. Thanks, Tanna, for all you do for us!

Well worth the money spent

Design Confidence! I am in the process of building a new house. With all of the decisions I had to make my head felt like it was going to explode. I had spent hours laboring over what hard surfaces to pick and decided I needed a designers perspective so that I could move forward with confidence. After all it is not everyday I drop $40,000 on my house, I wanted to make sure I had a cohesive design. I could only afford a couple of hours of her time to help me nail down my decisions. In 2 hours she reviewed, recommended and helped me finalize my choices for flooring, tile, paint, carpet, granite, etc. Tanna listened, was honest, made good use of our time, Well worth the money spent to gain peace of mind.

Brittany P. - Yakima, WA
so fun to work with

Tanna has been a true joy to work with. She's creative, energetic and her love of design is inspiring. Tanna has been so flexible in working within our budget. I was very overwhelmed by moving and things just didn't feel like home. She's so fun to work with, it's like having a girlfriend over for coffee, only when she leaves my new house actually feels like my home. I'm so grateful to her.

Lisa W. - Yakima, WA
implemented our ideas

Tanna did an amazing job on our kitchen and living area remodel! We did a complete makeover of a large part of our house and Tanna’s ideas about how to reconstruct the space were amazing. We completely opened up our rooms and it’s now so much better for entertaining. Her ideas were innovative and very helpful. She listened to and implemented some of our ideas but we would not have the kitchen and living area we do now without her help and expertise. She did everything from designing the space to helping to pick our grout colors.  I highly recommend Tanna to anyone considering a remodel.

Cathy L. - Yakima, WA
so, so, easy.

Enthusiastic & Passionate! She was able to prioritize the many potential projects in our home. She is very enthusiastic and passionate. Working with her was so, so, easy. Lastly, her design captured our interest and will greatly enhanced the beauty of our home. Thank you, Tanna.

world-class interior designer

My kitchen needed an update but I didn’t want do re-do  the whole room. Tanna helped me choose new countertops, backsplash and cupboard hardware and now it looks like a new room entirely. It is light, fresh and classy but not formal and flows smoothly into our great room.Yakima has a world-class interior designer in Tanna. She helped me narrow down my choices, and gave me the confidence to express my preferences and feel good about my picks.

Susan R. - Yakima, WA
generosity and talent

I am a strategic vendor partner of Tanna's. In my work I see and work with 1000's of designers. Tanna has always stood out. She has a rare ability to combine vision with action. Every business goes through stages and many get stuck in one stage. Tanna recognized this in her own business and was able to completely transform and reinvigorate it. But perhaps even more impressive is her generosity and talent for leading other designers to make the same change in theirs.

Stacy McKenna - STRATEGIC BUSINESS PARTNER
abundance of knowledge

I am writing this letter of recommendation about Tanna who operates TANNA BY DESIGN. We started working with Tanna late last year. She brought us some new designs and a lot of things to think about in remodeling several rooms of our home. She is pleasant to work with and very creative about her work. Tanna is the type of person that will not force her ideas upon you. We really appreciate that! She has a keen sense of decorating and how things need to be placed. She caused us to think a lot about the decorating of our home. I would recommend Tanna to anyone who is decorating their home, either new or old. I’d like to point out that she will always return your phone calls, texts and emails. She is right on top of things. As well as she has an abundance of knowledge of great craftsman particularly in our area.

Tony & Brenda V. - Sunnyside, WA
educated professional

Tanna is an amazing designer and helped me with a Master Bed/ Bath and a Formal Living Room. She first gave me a designed drawing of what the spaces could look like, and then we went from there. Tanna doesn’t just bring a gift of design, but is a well educated professional in the area of design/decorating. She allows you to give your ideas and how much you would like to spend, and works with those.  She makes suggestions of what she thinks would work best, and I appreciated that so much. I would have put the wrong color of paint on my walls, and would have been redoing them later if Tanna hadn’t made another suggestion. Loved working with her, and would use her talents again. I do have a few more rooms to redo. I love my new rooms, and only have a few more things to add, and she has patiently waited on me and my busy schedule. Thank you Tanna!

Susie E. - Yakima, WA
very professional

Tanna did an exceptional job on our studio design for a upcoming TV series! She was very professional and went the extra mile!

Bismark F. - Yakima, WA
great knack of listening

First Rate Job on our Rambler REDO!! We moved into a dated, segmented rambler and Tanna brought it to life. She has a great knack of listening to our desires, balancing them with realities of budget/time constraints and coming up with alternatives that worked better than our original ideas! I feel like our home is true reflection of us.

Lori M. - Snohomish, WA
efficient & knowledgeable

Tanna is extremely creative! We wanted to redo our great room, dining room and entry and she provided several options while keeping our own personalities and style in mind. She is prompt, efficient and very knowledgeable about all things related to design. I appreciated her ability to help me choose fabrics and furniture that not only looked fabulous, but would be functional for our lifestyle now and in the future. We would hightly recommend Tanna and will be working with her again!

Crystal A. - Yakima, WA
joy to work with

Tanna is an absolute joy to work with!! She is reliable, smart, and so generous with her time. She has a wonderful attitude and is so easy to work with!

Understoo My Taste

I Hired Tanna Based On Her Work Represented In The Snohomish (Now Called North End Metro) Magazine. I Needed Inspiration For My Master Bathroom Remodel And Knew That Tanna Would Be The Designer Who Could Understand My Personal Taste. I Had A General Idea Of What I Wanted And Tanna Was Able To Assist Where I Could Not Visualize. The Critical Piece Was Her Assistance With Hiring The Right Contractor For This Specific Job. Tanna Was Instrumental With The Overall Design, Color Palette, Specific Stone Materials To Use, And Keeping The Communication Open Throughout The Remodel Process. Beyond Tanna's Professional Expertise She Is A Pleasure To Work With And Will "Flow" With Your Personal Idiosyncrasies So That The End Result Is Beautiful And Exceeds Your Expectations. She Comes Highly Recommended And I Rate Her All "5'S" In Each Category.

Shane M. - Snohomish, WA
received compliments

Tanna was wonderful to work with and created a very glamorous space for my medical office.  She created such an inspiring work space and everything was well thought out to the smallest detail.  She brought in beautiful textile ideas and coordinated the ordering process. She provided the inspiration and allowed me to use the template to shop around within my budget.  She was readily available to come to the work site and help make design decisions throughout the process.  I have received so many compliments on my office space since we opened and it would not be what it is without the help from Tanna.  I will definitely be using her again for future projects!

wowed by her professionalism

I have had the unique experience to work with Tanna on a number of projects and am consistently wowed by her professionalism and creativity. Tanna was able to take our vision of a modern but rustic kitchen from conception to reality while showing great professionalism. There does not seem to be a style or idea that Tannna cannot turn into beautiful completion.

helpful in designing

Tanna By Design was so helpful in designing the layout for my kitchen!  I loved working with Tanna and she was very responsive to questions I had.

Cindy H. - Enumclaw, WA
made it effortless

NO CHALLENGE TOO TOUGH! Kappa Delta Sorority on the University of Washington campus was in need of a formal living room make-over. The massive space offered multiple design challenges ..., but we made a three-fold request of Tanna: make a 100-year old colonial structure appeal to, and fit, the demands of the active collegiate women’s lifestyle without losing its sense of tradition, and in the process, make it stand out from 18 other campus sororities! And it all had to be accomplished in a very tight turnaround.I personally couldn’t get my head around it, but Tanna saw the possibilities immediately and her enthusiasm was infectious. Most appreciated in the whole process was that she LISTENED, to the Corporation Board’s need for a long-term, timeless solution ... From the get-go, Tanna took charge. She communicated a complete design and plan and she managed the ENTIRE process. She literally made it effortless ...Tanna, a consummate problem-solver and visionary.I couldn’t recommend TANNA BY DESIGN more highly!

Maurine J. - Seattle, WA KAPPA DELTA SORORITY
beautiful taste

Tanna helped us with a new kitchen remodel and we absolutely love it and get compliments on it all the time. It is a new kitchen in a fifty year old summer cabin and it is modern, efficient and beautiful yet in keeping with the charm of the original structure.   When we needed help on reconstructing our basement, Tana was who I called immediately.  This was a very small job and Tana was gracious and jumped in to help me. She is a very talented designer, quick with excellent ideas and beautiful taste. She is also a lot of fun to work with.  I give her a 5 out of 5. She is tops.

Anne B. - Yakima, WA
incredibly helpful

We had decided to remodel our medical office, we weren’t sure how to pull it all together. I had seen Tanna’s work on her social media accounts and reached out to her to see if she could help us organize this project. We are so glad we made that call! TANNA BY DESIGN was incredibly helpful during the remodel process! She met with us, discovered what we wanted in the office and presented us with the perfect solutions. She managed the entire design process and made sure we were all involved along the way. She is professional and responsive, and a great team player! I would highly recommend Tanna to anyone wanting to remodel or redesign a commercial space. I have had both clients and friends compliments me every day on the new aesthetics. We look forward to working with TANNA BY DESIGN again!

Sarah D. - Ontario, Canada MYDOMA
well worth the investment

I was stuck on a layout for the living room, kitchen, dining room and another family room  remodel. How could I best use this space for our large family? I shared what our challenges were, what I dreamed of it being and Tanna helped us get that on paper. She walked us through the process with the architect. As we continue to move through this remodel, I plan to hire Tanna to continue to assist in making our remodel come to life. I would definitely recommend you taking the time to talk with her, well worth the investment.

Jana A. - Yakima, WA

knowing what will work

This is the second time I worked with Tanna and her team. After moving in to a new home, I was challenged with many new areas that needed her special touch, including living room built ins, office built ins, and our entry way. Tanna has a way of knowing what will work in any space and her skill at pulling it all together is spectacular. I could not be happier, or ever fully complete without her help. More projects to come! I watched Tanna’s work for a few years dreaming of someday working with a designer like her. One day I fired off an email and the results from that initial contact completely exceeded every expectation I imagined. I wanted something bold and dreamy for our master bedroom and Tanna took the time to review ideas and saw my vision from the moment we met. She carefully coordinated everything from meetings, materials, and timelines, right down to the final touches. I cannot say enough how excited I am to now have this gorgeous retreat in my home. This entire process has been fantastic. Thank you Tanna for helping create this with us!

Summer P. - Yakima, WA
made it easy

We entered into a huge project to update the majority of the living spaces in our house. This included taking out built-in cabinets, removing a closet, new flooring, painting out all existing oak cabinets and stair banister, painting walls, and completely giving our kitchen and fireplace a facelift, just to hit the major things.  This was the first time we have done any renovations and we knew we could not do it alone. We had heard amazing things about Tanna from some friends of ours, so we contacted her. We were not disappointed. She made the entire project as easy as it could be.  We knew from the initial phone consult that she was passionate about not only her work but also developing relationships with her clients.  She really got to know us and what would best work for us as well as the look we were going for.  She was an advocate for us when working with contractors and subcontractors and has many connections in the industry and her knowledge of how to do things is priceless.  Tanna went above and beyond our expectations and we would 100% recommend her services!

Jessica W. - Yakima, WA
got it spot on

Exactly What We Wanted We hired Tanna to update our space - we're an advertising and marketing agency. She took our input and integrated our existing brand image into the design she created for us. Everything was absolutely perfect - she got it spot on, and gave us creative options to help our brand match our space.

Sarah G. - Yakima, WA THE FIELD GROUP MARKETING
makes the process fun

Perfect Finishing Touch! Tanna has an excellent ability to take a vision and develop it into reality. Color selections, finish materials, transitions of floor coverings, window treatment, furniture, furnishings & accessories make our spaces special. We enjoy working with Tanna. She makes the process fun & the finished space is always amazing.

Brad K. - Yakima, WA TRADITIONAL DESIGNS
very unique talent

I had a truly enjoyable experience working with Tanna on our 2010 Tour Home that received an award for the Best Master Bedroom in our category. Tanna has a very inviting and unique talent in her design skills. The home was greeted with an uncountable number of ooohs and aaahs with the theme of design on this project. Furthermore, Tanna comes highly recommended.

a life saver

Tanna was a life saver! She artistically incorporated my personal taste with her design expertise that gave us a kitchen remodel that was perfect! I can’t say enough about how much she helped us through the whole construction and decision making process. Her kindness and understanding made the process so much more enjoyable as well. Everyone compliments us on our beautiful new kitchen. Thank you Tanna!

Diane C. - Yakima, WA
creative suggestions

Tanna had such great color ideas and one where it involved our dining room. She suggested a color theme that my husband and I would never even thought of. I will be definitely be calling her in the near future should we need any other creative suggestions!

so inspired

Entrepreneurs don't always share the initial learning curves of owning a business. For example many creatives are GREAT at being creative and artistic but are not so good at the operations side. I'm so proud to be on my first podcast that tells the story of my 16 year journey and I am so grateful to Tanna who inspired me when I needed it most.

Rhobin DelaCruz - RHOBIN DELACRUZ DESIGNS

After living in our house for a few months, we discovered a major leak in our master bathroom that required a complete rebuild of the shower. We decided to turn lemons into lemonade and use this as an opportunity to work with Tanna and her team to help us redesign and update our shower. We had worked with Tanna before when she designed multiple rooms and outdoor spaces at our house and we loved all her designs so we were excited to have the chance to work with her again. We worked with Tanna to design the new master shower, in addition to new bathroom countertops, sinks, and faucets. We have heard horror stories from people who have done home renovations about having to coordinate and hire multiple contractors and deal with various issues. Tanna makes the renovation process worry-free because she has an amazing team of people she works with from general contractors to tile installers to plumbers, you name it! She coordinated the steps of the project and kept in constant communication with us. We love the final product and we hope to work with Tanna again in the future for other renovation projects. We highly recommend her services!!

organized, thorough and efficient

I had a great experience with Tanna doing a virtual design consult.  I was looking for help with pendant lights (quantity, size, placement, design) and gave me the direction I needed.  She was very organized, thorough, and efficient to make the most of our time together.  She even followed up with links, options, and samples sent to me.  I look forward to utilizing her services again when working on other areas of our home.

Talented and fun

"Talented and fun to work with!" My husband and I are in the process of building a home. We gave our plans to Tanna and met with her a couple of weeks later. She had looked over our plans like they where her own. She came armed with samples and a ton of ideas. Tanna took one look at our kitchen and realized that the set up of the kitchen did not match our lifestyle. She helped us add more entry/exit points, rearrange the appliances and add some additional windows for more natural light. I love our kitchen now! She also helped us with our family room. We loved the size but there seemed to be so much wasted space. Tanna was able to help us with this as well. She is extremely creative, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend her to anyone.

caters to today's lifestyle

I recently engaged Tanna to redesign a floorplan and select finishes in a choppy and outdated 1950's northwest contemporary speculative rehab. The existing floorplan presented fundamental challenges that needed to be incorporated into the final design. The resulting product that she inspired caters to today's lifestyle with a much more modern feel. I was impressed with Tanna's ability to work within the budget set forth and her willingness to take on the challenge with a smile.

attention to detail

Our commercial lobby needed an update and we were referred to TANNA BY DESIGN from other businesses in the valley. Our customers are rough on our waiting room furniture so we needed new pieces that would last. Tanna’s reputation was spot on. She carefully listened, has impeccable attention to detail and provided us with exactly what we wanted. We now have a waiting area that is extremely durable and looks great too. We now refer her name to every one that compliments us on our new space.

extremely easy

Working with Tanna made the process of remodeling our home extremely easy. The way she organized the process was helpful to reduce stress and made decision making so easy. She has a gift of visual clarity that I didn't have. I depended on her for 90% of the purchases and design elements, thus allowing me not to worry I didn't make the right decision. She was there all along the 6 month process. Getting cabinets ordered, flooring, countertops, tile etc. picked out and ordered made the project go smoothly. There wasn't an issue with any of the vendors we used. Highly recommend her to anyone. You will not be disappointed.

dream home design

So thankful for Tanna! When we entered into a new build on 5 acres - we knew we needed help and I'm so thankful we found Tanna. From the moment we met her, we knew she had our best interests in mind and that we were in GREAT hands. Tanna was with us from beginning to end - 2 years!! She helped us with the architecture design and attended every meeting with our contractor and architect. She held our hands when we had to completely change direction, and presented a model which became our dream home design. Tanna was with us every step of the build process - surfaces, flooring, paint colors, cabinet and design, plumbing fixtures, and lighting. I'm so thankful she was our partner through all of these details. We honestly would not have been able to create our dream home without her. Not only is Tanna a true professional, but she is also a pure joy to work with. We will definitely be using Tanna on all projects going forward. We highly recommend Tanna - you will not be disappointed.

"A pleasure to work with, always!" We are furniture builders and we have had the sheer pleasure of working with Tanna. She is not only fun to work with, but extremely talented. She has come to us with a number of cool wood projects and we are always happy to see her come through the door because we love to see what ideas she has next. We built a couple of live edge pieces for her clients, as well as a beautiful table and bench set. Her vision is hip and classy. She has great communication, which makes it easy to collaborate with her. We really enjoy her enthusiasm for design, her keen eye, and her ability to work with all styles of design from modern to traditional. We recommend Tanna because she is a quality gal and she good at what she does!

wonderful personality

Tanna was a huge help to us when we were stuck trying to figure out interior paint colors to pull everything together. It looks fantastic and now we are looking forward to her assistance with the decorating portion of our project. Her assistance was remarkable with putting us in touch with people from the different stores we needed to procure our materials from and worked hand in hand with us at the stores during that process. This alone saved us lots of time and frustration trying to convey our needs and sorting through the endless options. We very much appreciated her knowledge, the effort she put in and is a wonderful personality to work with!

She allows you to give your ideas and how much you would like to spend, and works with those.  She makes suggestions of what she thinks would work best, and I appreciated that so much. I would have put the wrong color of paint on my walls, and would have been redoing them later if Tanna hadn’t made another suggestion. Loved working with her, and would use her talents again. I do have a few more rooms to redo. I love my new rooms, and only have a few more things to add, and she has patiently waited on me and my busy schedule. Thank you Tanna!

made it easy

Tanna went above and beyond in helping me put together an amazing formal living room space. From light fixtures, paint colors, home furnishings to giving me the thumbs up or thumbs down on things I have picked out myself. Her honesty, professionalism and knowledge was impressive. Tanna made the overwhelming decorating process exciting and fun. The efficient return of emails/phone calls and the different options she provided has made it easy in making prompt decisions. Our project is complete and I absolutely LOVE IT! I highly recommend Tanna! She is fabulously talented at what she does!!! Thank you so much Tanna!

tanna does it all

In November of 2023 we bought a 20 plus year old house in Anthem Country Club that needed a whole house remodel...meaning new floors, knocking out walls, redoing the kitchen, etc. By way of background, my wife and I are not rookies when it comes to projects like this, we have done many whole house remodels gutting houses down to the studs in some cases as well as buying land and building from scratch.In our past projects we have been fortunate to find great contractors who worked with skilled designers and then finally interior designers to assist with furniture layout, etc. Tanna does all of these things. She is by far and away the most skilled , talented person we have ever worked with...she quickly "got us." Without Tanna, our house would have turned out OK....with Tanna our house is going to be amazing. These types of projects are expensive, making a mistake is very costly, Tanna will keep you from making mistakes. Whatever her fees are its worth every penny to make sure your investment turns out right.

willingness to share

Tanna and I had such a fun and informative conversation. I felt so accomplished after our one hour of coaching. I love her energy and her willingness to share her process. I got exactly what I needed from her. She went out of her way to send me info after our call. I highly recommend Tanna!

so fun to work with

Tanna has been a true joy to work with. She's creative, energetic and her love of design is inspiring. Tanna has been so flexible in working within our budget. I was very overwhelmed by moving and things just didn't feel like home. She's so fun to work with, it's like having a girlfriend over for coffee, only when she leaves my new house actually feels like my home. I'm so grateful to her.

Fun, creative, professional

Engaged Expert! Tanna has and will continue to be the designer we call for all of our home decor projects, big and small (though they are mostly big). Tanna took the time to come to our home, listen and interpret our needs and our style and creatively packaged the recommendations she made for us. She pushed our boundaries of what was "comfortable" for us and in the end that represented some of the results we love the most. A few words I would use to describe what is was like to work with Tanna: Fun, creative, professional, results-oriented, curious, fair...did I say fun? Highly recommend TBD (Tanna By Design) for your next project.

made it easy

We entered into a huge project to update the majority of the living spaces in our house. This included taking out built-in cabinets, removing a closet, new flooring, painting out all existing oak cabinets and stair banister, painting walls, and completely giving our kitchen and fireplace a facelift, just to hit the major things.  This was the first time we have done any renovations and we knew we could not do it alone. We had heard amazing things about Tanna from some friends of ours, so we contacted her. We were not disappointed. She made the entire project as easy as it could be.  We knew from the initial phone consult that she was passionate about not only her work but also developing relationships with her clients.  She really got to know us and what would best work for us as well as the look we were going for.  She was an advocate for us when working with contractors and subcontractors and has many connections in the industry and her knowledge of how to do things is priceless.  Tanna went above and beyond our expectations and we would 100% recommend her services!

virtual interior design

I reached out to Tanna when I recently moved into a larger apartment and needed help furnishing and decorating it. I had a general idea for the look but needed help finding things that would fit and were within budget. The whole process was super easy and convenient. Tanna helped me hone my ideas and find actual pieces to fill my home and presented me with layout ideas that I would have never considered on my own. She really took into consideration everything that I was looking for and gave me personalized attention which I really appreciated --I've had friends who have done other virtual interior decorator services that they weren't happy with because it wasn't personalized to them and was just a bit blah overall--and this was the opposite. I'm really happy with the stuff she came up with and am excited to finally get my place furnished and feeling like home. Thank you Tanna for your help!

reliable & honest

Tanna has been awesome!!! She was able to put to life what I had always dreamed of! She is prompt, reliable, honest, CREATIVE, ARTISTIC, and nice all at the same time which is not always easy to find in a designer! I highly recommend her! We started with a small bathroom remodel, then moved to a second bathroom, and then to a full kitchen remodel. TANNA IS GREAT!!!!

gives 110%

I have had the pleasure of knowing Tanna for several years. She is a pleasure to work with no matter the task. She is an extremely positive individual and you can count on her to give 110% to her commitments.

Talented and fun

"Talented and fun to work with!" My husband and I are in the process of building a home. We gave our plans to Tanna and met with her a couple of weeks later. She had looked over our plans like they where her own. She came armed with samples and a ton of ideas. Tanna took one look at our kitchen and realized that the set up of the kitchen did not match our lifestyle. She helped us add more entry/exit points, rearrange the appliances and add some additional windows for more natural light. I love our kitchen now! She also helped us with our family room. We loved the size but there seemed to be so much wasted space. Tanna was able to help us with this as well. She is extremely creative, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend her to anyone.

caters to today's lifestyle

I recently engaged Tanna to redesign a floorplan and select finishes in a choppy and outdated 1950's northwest contemporary speculative rehab. The existing floorplan presented fundamental challenges that needed to be incorporated into the final design. The resulting product that she inspired caters to today's lifestyle with a much more modern feel. I was impressed with Tanna's ability to work within the budget set forth and her willingness to take on the challenge with a smile.

feeling confident

My husband and I met Tanna years ago through youth baseball. When we decided it was time to remodel our master bathroom I was overwhelmed! I know what I like and spent many hours perusing magazines and showrooms , but had no idea how to implement what I wanted so I reached out to Tanna! Best decision ever! Tanna is passionate about what she does and has me feeling confident and excited about our project! A true professional. She lives and works in eastern Washington , and I am in western Washington , and having only seen photos of our home she was able to perfectly pick colors and materials to enhance the style of our home , as well as hold my hand and guide me through our first major remodel !  Without a doubt she has a true gift and we look forward to using her for future projects.

efficient & knowledgeable

Tanna is extremely creative! We wanted to redo our great room, dining room and entry and she provided several options while keeping our own personalities and style in mind. She is prompt, efficient and very knowledgeable about all things related to design. I appreciated her ability to help me choose fabrics and furniture that not only looked fabulous, but would be functional for our lifestyle now and in the future. We would hightly recommend Tanna and will be working with her again!

read my thoughts

Tanna was a joy to work with and had so many wonderful ideas. I wanted to create a romantic warm setting for our master bedroom and the final product was right on the mark! From the crystal chandelier to the satin curtains to the beautiful fluffy white area rug.....everything was perfect! It was as if she was right inside my head reading my design thoughts then made them come to life. She also helped by putting us in contact with contractors who were very reliable and did fantastic jobs in our home. I am very much looking forward to working with Tanna again on our next project and highly recommend her service!
