TESTIMONIALS
“I chose Rob to design a study room for my high-school-age daughter because he had done such great work on my house remodel years ago. What I thought would just be a place for her to do homework turned out to be a transformative experience for her. Rob created a space that brought out the best in her, and gave her the environment to be all that she could be. The efficient layout and calming vibe of the room drew enabled her to excel in her very competitive academics. It allowed her and her friends to collaborate on projects and be inspired. But most importantly, it gave her a space that was all her own, and her artistic confidence grew. She blossomed both as an artist and a student. Today she is a senior in college on the east coast, and when she comes home to visit, it is this room where she spends her time. We are both so grateful to Rob for his vision in creating this space which helped her become who she is.
Good luck!”

“If you are looking for a designer that will help you realize a dream of what a home (or any space or event, for that matter) could become, then we absolutely recommend you use Rob Esterley. Rob is creating spaces that truly reflect his clients’ circumstances, past, and even perhaps aspirations. He makes spaces that reflect a journey that has been taken through life. He wants his clients’ homes to reflect what they are as people, and not what he wants as a designer…. all combined with a delightful personality that allows one to treat him as a friend.”

“Robert Esterley’s designs are timeless and elegant. His special gift to me was his intuitive responsiveness to my needs and lifestyle. Noting that my work as an author required both order and creativity space, Rob researched a number of options and then focused the design and decor to help me achieve my dream office. But he didn’t stop there! My office flows beautifully into a space for calm and healing, my Sacred Place to capture dreams and future stories.”
