Dan & esther

We have worked with Melissa Dyckman for four years and on two major projects at different homes. Melissa is the real-deal, and we recommend her 10 out of 10! She pays incredible attention to detail, designs spaces that complement the environment, and maximizes utility while also deeply valuing aesthetics. She is well-resourced on the island and connected to excellent local contractors who are experts in their craft, and deeply respect her and her work. This is so important! She has excellent taste and puts a great deal of thought into each individual design choice from choosing kids' curtains to sourcing art and framing, to fully designing cabinets, full scale renovation of several bathrooms, installing new flooring, and creating a large and inviting outdoor kitchen space from scratch. She introduced us to a number of styles and concepts that we had not considered which we now love.She strikes the perfect balance of listening AND having a perspective. Collaborating with Melissa is fun!

Melissa is not just a great designer, but a wonderful person. She is a deeply kind and giving person who aims for perfection in all she does. She is driven and will get the job done exactly to your specifications. She is exactly the person you want to work with on a luxury home project. We absolutely love working with Melissa and hope to continue to work with her over many years to come!
