Working with Shelley has been fabulous! She has guided us through remodeling our kitchen, selecting new flooring for our entire first floor, and choosing a color pallet for each room – then furnishing everything. The rooms range from dramatic (kitchen) to elegant (formal living room) to casual (family room) – each style distinctive, yet all blended and coordinated, transitioning smoothly from room to room.
The products Shelley brings in are beautiful and of high quality, but she gives equal consideration to comfort, practicality, and flexibility. For every decision, she provides samples and options, explaining what to look for and what to avoid. For items we find or install ourselves, she provides invaluable advice on industry standards and best practices. She knows experts in every field and recommends exceptional tradesmen.
Shelley’s ability to orchestrate a space – to pick the perfect color, the exact detail, the right texture – is magical. But equally valuable is her work ethic: she responds always and quickly; she’s on time; she’s prepared; she keeps a record of all our discussions and decisions; she follows up.
Meetings with Shelley are fun and overflowing with exciting visions of possibilities. Of all the things on my calendar, my favorite is “Shelley Rodner.”

Upon recommendation from friends, we contacted Shelley for help with a re-do of our home that we owned for 15 years and lived in full time for 10 years. It was a delightful, personal experience. I never believed our modest beach home could offer so much elegance while remaining cozy and relaxing. Our recent visitors have been amazed, maybe even stunned! Shelley could absolutely “read” us with suggestions for floor repair, wall color, furniture, placement of wall hangings, and window treatments. She presented us with options and allowed our preferences guide the choices. Importantly to us, she respected those items that were meaningful to us. Another selling point is the array of contractors and vendors available. Every one we used was most professional and competent. We looked forward to her visits not just for the decorating advice but also for the conversation that accompanied it. We had fun!

Fantastic working with Shelley! She has the unique ability to blend! We are merging two homes (aka-downsizing). She has fresh, aesthetic ideas that manage to blend our current pieces with her newer ones. She is always available and responds quickly. Especially great since we live far away! Just a pleasure!! She and her staff are professional and are able to provide quality pieces within our budget.

Shelley is absolutely amazing! We have been working with Shelley for almost 2 years. What you may not know is that she stands behind her work! We had an issue with a piece of furniture…Within 24 hours an email was sent to me, and replacement from the manufacturer was coming in 2 weeks. We have one word for Shelley, amazing!!

Shelley is the ultimate design professional. Her creativity and ability to help her customers find just the right colors for their space and personality are super. She is respectful and able to create a synergy between herself and her customers. The results of her work end up being just what you want without overpowering you with her ideas. Shelley listens carefully to you and that’s what makes her work so fitting to your needs.

(Our home is a work in progress). Working with Shelley has been an excellent experience. We carefully discuss different design options for each room of our home. It is a creative process of new design, blended with our existing furnishings. Shelley is professional. Always on time. All of our email questions are answered quickly. With each passing month we get to see our combined ideas become a reality. Bare white walls are transformed into energetic, inviting spaces. Thanks Shelley for being such a good listener. The design ideas you’ve come up have been spot on!

Wow! Another spectacular design. Shelley provided superior service and design advice on the remodel of my beach house two years ago. She is super to work with and she continues to follow up and help me out when I need some direction. I don’t know what I would have done without her. She is just fabulous!

Shelley Rodner has helped with many projects in my home. Each time better than before. Shelley is so professional and really understands the clients needs, tastes and personality. Shelley has an amazing eye for design and the end project is always spectacular. I am so happy with everything Shelley has helped with and would highly recommend her to anyone. She is topnotch, I just love her!! I would highly recommend Shelley Rodner to redo any room or your entire house. She listens and does exactly what you want, not what she wants, as other designers do. She has loads of options and is willing to go with your ideas and infuses her eye and talent to make the room work. Our rooms came together beautifully and we are happy she worked with us to make our house, our dream home.
