What our friends & clients are saying about Lifestyles Design

 I was referred to Eileen Gould, and her Lifestyles and Design Construction Company by my realtor as the best general contractor for our remodel and design work.  We found Eileen to be an exceptional talent.  We purchased a Townhouse near the Santa Monica Mountains as an escape from the darkness and rain of the Seattle winters.  The place required a total remodel to fit our needs, though the location and underlying architecture were perfect for us.   Eileen was a dynamo as a general contractor lining up terrific subcontractors for flooring, tile, electrical, granite and cabinet installation.   She was able to perfectly incorporate our general ideas with her interior design talent to produce exactly what we wanted, all done from afar, in an absolute record time of 6 weeks.  The quality of the work was superb and her availability was 100%.  Really an unbelievable experience after what we have always heard about remodels.  We could not give her higher praise.   A true professional in every sense of the word.

Joy: Please tell Eileen that Jim and Meg Haney are ecstatic that the kitchen project turned out so well. They were pleased with the professionalism, timeliness and cleanliness of the people who worked on the project. Jim said their expectations were exceeded. Thank you for your successful project.

The final results are wonderful. Eileen is welcome to come by and take pictures. I still need to frame the kitchen window, but everything else is done (floor and appliances). Thanks again, we will definitely recommend you.

—Jim Haney

Your new web site is wonderful! The newsletter is a great idea. I admire how well you juggle everything and accomplish so much. Adam's downtown condo still looks lovely. I am so grateful and appreciative of all of your and Lifestyles' help. How lucky I was to have you answer my email request for your help.
I hope all is well for you and your family,

"We are enjoying our bathrooms and closet so much that it seems like they have always been that way. We hardly remember how it was before-or we don't want to remember."

—Karl & Betsy Zentner

"We had a vision for a future second story. Lifestyles saw our vision and made it happen. Eileen is a pistol... every commitment (schedule, estimate, etc) was met. We also knew that Lifestyles only recommends the best.  We never had to question quality—every textile, element or craftsman was simply the best there is.  Our second story master suite is a true retreat.  We love every minute we get to spend in our new space. Lifestyles was not the lowest bid—but it was an excellent example of getting what you pay for.  We chose the higher bid and never regretted it.There were no price increases for construction surprises and no price increases for better quality options.The price simply included everything—which made the whole process entirely enjoyable..."

"Eileen, My purple kitchen is SOOOOO beautiful! The purple is actually the softest, prettiest mauve which blends so nicely with the mural. The appliances and the floor tile all set it off so nicely. I absolutely LOVE the color! And you will too!"

—Pat Carlson

"We wanted to let you know how happy we are with the way that our house looks. All the hard work, all the decisions you helped us with, all of the contractors you brought in (the "Mission Impossible" team of the renovation world)—all paid off. We are completely delighted with Lifestyles and would recommend your services to anyone without a moment's hesitation."

—Lisa Haller & Scott Goldman

"We have used Eileen Gould and Lifestyles Interior Design & Construction, Inc. to do all the flooring, lighting, painting and furniture in our new home.  We are so pleased with the design, her work people and the total experience.  The moldings were exquisite as well as the built-in bookcases. We highly recommend Eileen and Lifestyles Interior Design & Construction."
