I recently had the privilege of working with Jo Anne Coates, an outstanding interior designer who brought my vision to life and transformed my house into a haven of beauty and serenity. I am thrilled to share my experience and recommend her wholeheartedly for her remarkable skills, unwavering professionalism, and remarkable ability to deliver stunning results within an affordable budget. From the moment I met Jo Anne, I knew I had found a true gem. She effortlessly grasped my desire for a Caribbean theme in the living room, a bohemian ambiance in the dining room, and an earthy feel for the sunroom. Her deep understanding of design elements and aesthetics became evident as she expertly combined colors, textures, and furnishings to bring each space to life. I recently purchased a waterfront home in California. My living room, with its Caribbean theme, exudes a vibrant and tropical aura. Jo Anne ingeniously incorporated coastal hues, like soothing blues, refreshing greens and a dash of sunset orange, while infusing elements of nature through carefully selected plants and furniture. The space now emanates a warm and relaxed atmosphere that instantly transports me to a tranquil Caribbean paradise. Moving on to the dining room, I was captivated by the bohemian theme that now graces the space. Jo Anne's eye for detail is evident in the meticulously curated assortment of textiles, patterns, and decorative accents. The rich earth tones, abundant textures, and carefully chosen bamboo wall decor perfectly captures the bohemian spirit, creating a cozy and eclectic dining area that effortlessly encourages lively conversations and unforgettable gatherings. The sunroom, with its earthy theme, has become my personal sanctuary. Jo Anne's astute use of natural materials, such as wood, rattan, and organic fabrics, created an oasis of peace and tranquility. The space now bathes in warm earth tones, complemented by subtle pops of greenery, allowing me to connect with nature from the comfort of my home. The careful placement of comfortable seating and soft lighting completes the inviting ambiance, making it the perfect spot for relaxation and reflection. I cannot praise Jo Anne enough for her exceptional execution and attention to affordability. Throughout the entire process, she respected my budget and never compromised on the quality of materials or the overall design vision. Her ability to source cost-effective options without sacrificing style or functionality was truly impressive. Working with Jo Anne has been an absolute pleasure. Her professionalism, creativity, and dedication to ensuring my satisfaction were evident at every stage. She patiently listened to my ideas, offered valuable insights, and flawlessly brought everything together to create an exquisite living environment that reflects my personality and preferences. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Jo Anne to anyone seeking a transformative and affordable design experience. Her ability to seamlessly integrate various themes, design elements, and affordability is unparalleled. If you're looking to create a space that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also a true reflection of your individuality, she is the one to trust. Prepare to be amazed by her talent and the breathtaking results she can achieve. Thank you, Jo Anne, for the remarkable journey you took me on, and for making my house a place I am proud to call home.

Jo-Ann was so wonderful to work with. She brought my desired aesthetic to life and was able to curate a space better than I’d ever imagined within my budget. She was warm, thoughtful, and so kind to me! I loved her advice about picking pieces to maximize a small space. She was able to transform my home into a functional, calming, and warm space where I could gather people over hearty conversation and good food. She was very tolerant of my work schedule and went above and beyond to make my space a home. Every step along the way, I felt she was giving my home decorating project the time, care, and attention she would give to her home space. I absolutely adored her, loved working with her, and look forward to decorating my outdoor space with her!!! Thank you so much, Jo-Ann, for being patient with me and bringing my heart’s desire for my home to life! - M.M.

It was the perfect combination of expertise, quality, and talent that helped create the welcoming good energy I wanted for the interior creation of the home.

I’d been in touch with Jo Ann for nearly 6 months to begin designing multiple rooms in our home. We scheduled a call and 2 hours before, she texts saying she’s just signed a large contract and won’t be able to work with me for another 6 months. Incredibly rude and unprofessional.

JoAnne is amazing and so easy to work with. She has helped me so much with pulling together the design for our Monte Rio vacation home. I will be hiring for more rooms in the future. I will add photos after project is complete.
