Case Studies Deeper Project Stories
Small Apartment Refresh — Studio Conversion
Challenges: Limited layout, poor storage, large north-facing windows.
Solution: Reupholstered a compact sofa with performance fabric, constructed a custom Murphy-style storage bed with built-in lighting, and designed full-length draperies with blackout lining for the sleeping zone. Result: The studio now functions as a living and sleep space comfortably, with improved privacy and storage.
Brownstone Living Room Reimagining
Challenges: Historic proportions, original trim, and tall windows with nonstandard dimensions.
Solution: Custom draperies with interlining and decorative rods to emphasize verticality, a reupholstered settee that honors scale, and a restored sideboard repurposed as a media console. Result: A seamless blending of historic features with modern conveniences that retained period charm.
Antique Dining Table Restoration
Challenges: Cracked veneer and missing inlay motifs.
Solution: Veneer stabilization and matched inlay recreation, structural reinforcement, and a satin shellac finish to preserve depth and shine. Result: The dining table was returned to daily use and continues to be a centerpiece for family gatherings.
Feedback & Continuous Improvement
We actively solicit feedback and use it to refine our process. Clients often comment on the transparency of our proposals and the quality of our workshop finishes. We follow up post-installation to ensure satisfaction and address any questions regarding care or minor adjustments.
How to Share Your Experience
If you have worked with Lore Decorator Custom Interior and would like to share your experience, please email photos and a short testimonial to our contact email via loredecorators.shop or call (718) 801-5060. With permission, we may feature select reviews and project photos on our website and social channels.
Trust & Credentials
While testimonials capture subjective experiences, we combine them with objective practices: documented warranties on workmanship, transparent proposals, and licensed subcontractors when required. We also maintain liability insurance for delivery and installation.
Client Stories & Impact
Clients often come to us overwhelmed by choices — a blank living room, mismatched furniture, or a family heirloom in need of care. Our collaborative approach and workshop capabilities mean we can restore a grandmother’s wingback chair, reupholster a worn sofa, and design complementary window treatments that pull the whole room together — often at a lower lifecycle cost than replacing items.
