I worked w Justine in a Back Bay condo property and a 4500sq ft home on the cape. Justine worked perfectly in both. People still come into my homes and comment how calming it is - which is my target. A close friend who is a realtor in Back bay and sees 100s of high end properties a year still comments on the design- (and she has a good friend in the design business ). A great thing about Justine is not only her exquisite taste but that she respects your budget. She suggests when it might make sense to splurge and when she can find a similar but less expensive option. Not only is she creative but she also has the mathematics to figure dimensions ( which a former designer I worked w did not). I can’t recommend Justine enough!

Hi Susan, so glad that you enjoyed your time with Lori and me! Please send photos once your reno is underway, so glad that we were able to offer guidance.
My wife and I had a great experience working with Justine Sterling Design! We were seeking professional guidance on several design details pertaining to our exterior home renovation, including siding and roof colors, paint colors, hardscaping design choices, and a redesign of our front entrance. We had tried to “go it alone” for many of these decisions but found ourselves second-guessing and doubting everything we did. When making such a significant financial investment in your property it is important to make the appropriate choices – they should not only suit your own tastes, but they should be timeless, appropriate for the neighborhood and style of home, and follow the guidelines of smart design. Working with Justine made us realize that there were smarter choices available that we had not considered. She guided us within our very tight timeframe to understand our scope of work and area of consulting need and quickly provided us with realistic recommendations that we could move forward with. We cannot overstate enough how important working with Justine was to the success of our project. While we might have met our scope goals without Justine’s input, it is doubtful that we would have been “wowed” with our results. Justine’s insightful suggestions took our project to another level! Highly recommended!

Brian, your home exterior needed so much love and I was happy to be a part of bringing some of that love and eye for detail to it.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Justine for an interior design consultation, and I am beyond impressed! From the moment we began, Justine demonstrated a deep understanding of design principles and an exceptional ability to translate my vague ideas into a clear, actionable plan. Her expertise in selecting colors, materials, and layouts was outstanding, and her attention to detail was second to none.
I walked away from the consultation feeling inspired and confident about the next steps for my project. If you’re looking for a talented, dedicated, and personable interior designer, I highly recommend Justine.

Monica, I am thrilled that our guidance made such a difference to your kitchen!
Justine has impeccable taste and knows how to marry function and style. We have a tricky front room with lots of difficult curves, and Justine knew exactly how to achieve a cohesive, practical space that looks beautiful and works for our family. Plus, she’s a delight to work with. Highly recommend.

Shaundra, I was so thrilled to work with you and navigate a plan for that tricky room!
We recently did a major update with built-in cabinetry and furniture installation with Justine and her team. When she asked us to come up with ideas of what we wanted, my husband and I seemed to have opposite ideas. He picked pictures with dark bold colors while mine were light and bright. Amazingly, Justine was able to blend the two with a theme of greens and blues that we love. We get so many compliments on the design. Justine has an amazing sense of style and was fun to work with. Now we have a home we will enjoy with family and friends for years to come.

We completed our home renovation and our furniture installation with Justine Sterling Design. The whole process has been amazing. From making sure we maximized our budget on things that mattered to us, to putting on the finishing touches that made our home look finished, we feel like we have what we were asking for – an elevated but livable home for our family of five.
Justine and her team helped us figure out ways to make our home more functional and stylish but also made it beautiful. The process beginning to end was amazing. They are all such a talent and a pleasure to work with. I learned so much about home design and the details that really matter. Above and beyond service. Justine and her team are also down to earth but classy and professional. I can’t say enough good things. She made our house a home.

Oh Jess, you were s wonderful to work with you. We love nothing more than "making a house a home"! So glad to be a part of making daily life a little better for you and your family x
Justine and her team have completed several projects for us over the years. Each space is more beautiful and functional than the next. Justine has a unique talent for listening, probing and delivering exactly what we envisioned. The team is attentive to every detail. Beyond the awesome finishes, fixtures and furniture, we especially love the way the each space works for our family. We have enjoyed our home so much thanks to Justine and her team.
