About The Studio

FROM OUR CLIENTS

Turned Our First Remodel Into Something Incredible

"We couldn't be more happy with our bathroom remodel, and how "us" this space is now. From a design standpoint, Emily does an amazing job getting to know your personal styles and interests, and finds ways to incorporate that into her work. We absolutely LOVED that! She was very quick to respond with any advice/feedback for even the smallest of details as the project progressed. We would 100% recommend Emily, and Design Studio Detroit, and can't wait to start the next project together!"
