Testimonials

Dara recently did a large project in our bedroom, and it looks fantastic. She tailored the design to fit our taste, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Would highly recommend Dara for interior design projects!

Love Dara’s eye for effortless design! She can also make a space feel like a million bucks for way less. Her attention to detail, organizational skills, and kind nature really pop when this process, by nature, can feel overwhelming. With Dara that stress simply melts away.

Dara is a pleasure to work with. She works collaboratively with her clients and is respectful of budget. The process that I thought would be intimidating ended up being fun and collaborative.  I don’t have an eye for design, so she was able to bring me ideas and take feedback. I highly recommend working with her!

I had the opportunity to work with Dara shortly after my family moved to Elmhurst. We were looking for a way to add color and character to our master bedroom and for something to liven up our upstairs landing. We were on a tight budget and Dara gave me high and low options for everything, which has created the perfect mix. I’m so excited to continue working with her as we finish out the rest of the home. Her attention to detail, curiosity about and dedication to our aesthetic along with gentle nudges outside of our comfort zone have made the whole process so much fun and interesting.

Dara Agruss Design understood exactly what we wanted to achieve and delivered far beyond our expectations! We hired Dara to design our home with a clean, simple (but not bland), and comfortable look. Dara is a skilled decorator and was easy to work with. Thank you, Dara!

When we first moved into our new house and finished renovating, we did not know where to begin with the decor. After seeing Dara’s beautiful work on her website, we knew we had to hire her. She knew exactly what we wanted and what would work in each room, and she truly turned our house into a home!
