Client Comments
“Margaret has helped me transform my very basic and disorganized décor into a more sophisticated, interesting and put-together style in my home...She works in my budget to get the best quality furniture at the best price. She is great at giving advice for what pieces go together and keeping the décor interesting vs. “hotel-style” boring.
Anytime I consider new furniture or redecorating a room, I always contact Margaret first. I have wasted too much money over the years of trying to figure it out myself only to realize that items don’t work well together or are not efficient/practical for my family. I appreciate Margaret’s patience and her gentle advice about my own decorating and I never felt pressured into purchasing anything I wasn’t 100% on board with. She is a dedicated, hard-working and talented person that I will continue to use and keep referring my friends and family to."

"We wanted to start fresh in our newly built home with a transitional style and hired Margaret Umberger to decorate our home with new furniture, artwork, etc. We were not able to do this by ourselves and wanted the styles and colors to work together. Margaret has done a terrific job helping us select furniture, rugs and artwork for several rooms. Everything looks great and we are very happy with the results. Margaret’s broad network of suppliers enabled her to offer several options for each phase of our project, including custom options. Margaret is very customer-oriented and easy to work with. Minor furniture delivery damage was quickly resolved by Margaret’s support team. We are very happy with our newly furnished house and highly recommend her."

"Margaret worked with me building my empty-nester house from start to finish. I had worked with her before and was excited to do this project together. From making selections to placing what furniture I kept, she was with me every step of the way and made a very emotional move fun. Margaret is so easy to work with and very knowledgeable."

"Margaret has been a perfect partner to work with to enhance our homes in Cincinnati and now, Akron. As a dual career couple, finding time to devote to our home is difficult yet we want beautiful and comfortable spaces to retreat to. She works closely with us, listening to our vision and incorporating our thoughts into a comprehensive plan. We have received numerous compliments on our house, and continue to use Margaret for design services and consultation. We have really enjoyed working with her and love everything she has done with our home.”

“When we originally bought our home, we had a tight budget and decorated it ourselves. After 10 years, we decided to give the first floor a makeover, but realized we had no idea where to start. We wanted our home to look polished and professionally decorated, but also fit with our family’s lifestyle and budget. We decided to consult a professional and that’s when we met Margaret. Having never worked with an interior designer before, we were uncertain of how the process would work. We wanted someone who would listen, be trustworthy, get to know our style and guide us in our decisions. Our first consultation with Margaret was great! She answered our questions honestly and we felt very comfortable with her. The next time we met, she had a plan ready for us. That was a year ago and now our first-floor makeover is complete. Margaret helped us select everything from paint to hardwood to furniture to draperies. You name it and she helped us with it! We’ve had such a great experience working with her that we would not make a decorating decision on our own again.”

“As a busy stay-at-home mom, it’s hard to find the time to shop for furniture, drapes, carpet and all the things you need for a home…and then coordinate the colors, finishes and textures. Margaret has been tremendous in helping me decorate our new home! She understands my tastes and preferences, and narrowed down selections for me. With her assistance, I was able to make quick decisions and start renovating! Through her I ordered furniture, draperies, window shades, lighting, art, accessories, bedding, carpet and coordinated it with her resources for paint, wall covering and faux finishing. She was there for all of it—as it was installed and until completion. Margaret has been wonderful!"
