We have worked with Francesca Owings Interior Design on two different projects, a total remodel of our Pentwater cottage and a major renovation of our 100-year-old home in East Grand Rapids. She and her team are truly professional and always “do what they say, when they say they will.” Francesca really understands the personality of the project and always exceeds expectations. Our favorite part of working with her is her flare for accessories. At the end of both of the projects, it was a delight to watch her add the “Francesca Touch” to make the end product truly wonderful. We highly recommend her team!
