TESTIMONIALS

Elba was AMAZING!! She designed our recent kitchen and bathroom renovation, and we are SO grateful for her. We have been living in the newly renovated house for a few months now, and I think we say "we love Elba" at least weekly because the thoughtful of design of our new kitchen just....works so seemlessly. It's like she knew exactly what we would need, where we would need it, and predicted our movements within the space perfectly. Not to mention it is aesthetically gorgeous so it has improved our quality of life. Thank you Elba!!Read More

I'll be honest. I wasn't sure what to expect going in. But from our very first call and visit, Elba completely won me over. She is everything you hope for in a designer and more. What sets her apart is how deeply she listens. She took the time to truly understand what mattered to me, asked the right questions, and made sure her priorities reflected mine and not just her own aesthetic vision. She communicates clearly and consistently throughout the entire process, so you're never left wondering what's happening next. Elba rolls up her sleeves and gets things done. She has incredible taste and a real creative eye, but she also brings serious practical skills to the table. She worked thoughtfully within my budget without ever making me feel like I was compromising. She found ways to incorporate pieces I already owned, and she even helped me sell some of my higher end items, going well above and beyond what I expected. And the final result? I absolutely love it. Walking into my space now feels completely different. She brought it all together in a way that feels cohesive, beautiful, and genuinely like me. That is the hardest thing to get right, and she nailed it. On top of all of that, she is warm, funny, and just a genuinely lovely person to work with. The entire experience felt effortless and joyful. I would work with Elba again and again without hesitation.Read More

Elba was a pleasure to work with during our home interior design project. She provided detailed options for each room and helped us make choices that fit our vision and budget. Elba offered stylistic suggestions and, importantly, offered other options when ideas we had met roadblocks with shipping/cost etc. While working with her, I felt she listened to my vision, and kept a holistic view of the project in mind to help create a peaceful and warm design. We'd recommend working with Elba for any project you may have - large or small.Read More

This is not a typical Houzz review, and while my project is still underway, I feel compelled to share my experience thus far to recognize Elba Ocasio—a remarkable and talented interior designer. Elba has worked wonders, rescuing what was a remodeling nightmare and guiding it toward becoming a beautiful sanctuary that I am excited to soon call home. Elba’s comprehensive understanding of all aspects of design and construction, paired with her exceptional problem-solving abilities, attentive listening, and professional communication, have been invaluable throughout this process. Her skills were especially critical when facing difficult decisions and tough negotiations, both of which were necessary to reverse the course of this project. The professional team Elba assembled to take over the remodel immediately rose to the occasion, consistently surpassing every expectation of “making it right.” Where there was once a stressful, adversarial environment, there is now a positive atmosphere marked by kindness, cooperation, and respect. I am deeply thankful for Elba’s steadfast professional and personal support during those very difficult and challenging moments. Her continued hard work and dedication—always going above and beyond—give me confidence that this project will reach a successful, beautiful conclusion. To be continued, including photos, upon successful project completion!Read More

"Stunning Coastal Remodel by ENO Designs – A Perfect Balance of Coastal Charm and Family-Friendly Functionality" I recently had the pleasure of collaborating with ENO Designs on my home remodel in the beautiful seaside town of Gold Beach, Vashon. The home, originally a traditional style, was artfully transformed into a breezy coastal retreat that perfectly suits the needs of my modern family while embracing the laid-back, serene vibes of beach living. A highlight of the project is the thoughtfully designed children's rooms and play area, created to be both playful and functional. The spaces are full of airy, ocean-inspired details, ideal for imaginative play and relaxation, with fresh coastal plants added for natural breathability and a calming atmosphere. The garage and laundry area were also completely reimagined, blending practicality with a light, coastal aesthetic to make everyday tasks feel like a breeze. ENO Designs brilliantly combined coastal elements with modern touches, resulting in a home that feels fresh, inviting, and timeless. If you're looking for a designer who understands how to create stylish, family-friendly spaces with a relaxed beachy feel, I highly recommend ENO Designs for your next project!Read More
