I got connected with Kassin by our real estate partner and talked her through my project. I was on a pretty tight budget and also thought we could do some tweaking with the furniture we currently had, but knew this was out of my realm of expertise. Kassin partnered me up with Edam and Laura who met me on site to assess the office and talk through my budget and goals. They were wonderful partners, keeping it scrappy where we could, providing guidance on where I should invest, and quickly revising their design proposal when something wasn't quite right. The positive feedback we've gotten from our returning employees has been the reassurance that I made the right choice in partnering with IDF for this project. Thanks for making me look good, gang! read less

Marcy thoughtfully considered the space and managed to discern my tastes and preferences, even when I had difficulty articulating them. Marcy energetically designed and implemented the plan, and she is a perfectionist when it comes to execution.

This was the first time working with a designer, so I was very diligent in my search. After reaching out to various designers, a friend luckily put in touch with Kassin. At that time, we were still office hunting and she was beyond patient with us in our search. When we landed our new space, Kassin connected us with Ashley Banash, our lead designer on the project. Ashley understood exactly what we were looking for and was very open to feedback. She made it very easy to make decisions without any pressure. She gave us the prefect layout and flow and did such an amazing job representing our vision and culture, all while working on a very tight budget. Ashley was such a pleasure to work with! I absolutely recommend IDF and look forward to working with Ashley and her team on our next office space in 2019! read less

Jaclyn and Alli were incredibly professional, efficient and an absolute dream to work with-even when our contractor became a nightmare. Jaclyn ensured that we stayed on budget, she kept our contractor in line and on time, and she was flexible with our busy family schedule.
We would absolutely recommend IDF, and especially these two lifesavers, over and over again! read less

Our condominium association was very much in need of a re-do of the lobby and library areas. We interviewed several design firms and IDF was, by far, the one we chose and we made the right decision to be sure. Ashley Banash was the lead designer for our project and she did an outstanding job. Actually, all of the people we worked with at IDF (Kassin, Ashley, Rachael and others) were wonderful to work with excellent vision in design We were on a fairly tight budget for the project and Kassin and Ashley were very open to working with us within our budget. They were patient and understanding of the pressures we were under and had wonderful design ideas for furniture, accessories and color schemes. They were very flexible in their approach and very accommodating. Ashley was always accessible by phone and gave us good ideas to create a really comfortable and inviting environment. We were very pleased with IDF's work and would highly recommend them. read less

Ashley Banash was our designer for the project and she was so professional and extremely easy to work with. She listened to what we wanted while still making her own suggestions, but did not push any ideas onto us that we were not comfortable with. She was always open to our ideas and tried to incorporate those as much as she could into her own design. IDF and Ashley were able to bring the vision we had for our space to life and we are extremely pleased with the outcome! I would absolutely recommend IDF and Ashley to anyone looking to redesign their space and work with professional and collaborative designers! Thank you IDF for making our work space feel like home! read less

I approached several interior design firms during the early phase of my construction project. Half of them were pleasant but had ridiculously high spending requirements while the other half seemed really smug so I was initially discouraged.

I continued my search and stumbled upon IDF Studio, and everything was smooth sailing from there! IDF's website exuded high quality and approachability, and I think it was the company's mission statement that spoke to me (which sadly I no longer remember). I reached out and was scheduled an initial meeting with Kassin (founder/CEO), who I found very personable. Kassin and I discussed the project and she explained what the process entailed, told me that she would pair me with a lead designer who she believed would work well with me. Little did I know Kassin's pairing skills would be on point!

A few days after we signed the proposal, my husband and I met with our lead designer, Jaclyn, and associate designer, Ali. We talked to them about what we liked, the style we're going for, budget, expectations, etc. Jaclyn and Ali were both very friendly and good-humored. I especially felt like I was talking to my really close friends during our initial meeting. After they left, I told my husband I liked them already!

Jaclyn was my main go-to person throughout the project. It was real fun working with her because she is super talented and has exceptional taste! Whether Jaclyn was presenting a design aesthetic or suggesting which tiles or flooring materials to choose, I always found it difficult to make a decision because all her suggestions always looked good! Given that I was so indecisive and had a limited budget, Jaclyn was always patient with me and was always there to help me make the right decision. I always looked forward to my calls/meetings with her and she really helped keep me grounded so that I continued to enjoy the process instead of become overwhelmed. Jaclyn also had this talent of ensuring you make a decision you would not regret. When I look around our home, I cannot find anything in it I do not love! Jaclyn incorporated all the quirky requests my husband and I had into the aesthetic of our home and created a home that speaks our personality and suits our lifestyle.

Ali was a delight to work with. She was always there to help even at a moment's notice. I remember calling her one day because the supplier no longer carried the white countertop we originally selected so we had to choose another white countertop. There were so many shades of white countertops to choose from, my head was spinning! I was pressed for time and had a deadline so Ali ran down to meet me at the store within the hour so that I could order ASAP! Ali also helped me with the most intricate details of the project ranging from the grout and paint colors to deciding which side the strings of the roman shades should be on! She took care of the smallest details without fail so that I did not have to stress over it!

I could go on and on and say many positive things about Jaclyn and Ali but this review will never end! Overall, our project was a complete rebuild of our home which took almost three years to complete starting from the planning phase. Though occasionally hectic and sometimes stressful, I found the process of rebuilding our home to be an educational and really enjoyable experience thanks to IDF! Jaclyn and Ali always meant business and were always so efficient, but still managed to keep the experience fun, productive and light-hearted during stressful times!!

I highly recommend IDF! We were very pleased with our decision to work with them and I cannot imagine doing another project without Jaclyn and Ali! read less

Whether it be for Airbnb HQ or Zendesk, Jaclyn and her team are ultimately collaborative, and have delivered thoughtful design. Working on interiors projects can be a crazy environment, as any Workplace person knows. The folks at IDF Studio are professional, yet fun - a great mix for any project - which kept me laughing or serious, depending on what was going on. Design is one thing, but being able to curate a space is really one of things that put their approach over the top. It's the little things that define a space, and it takes a certain eye to do it well. IDF is among the best. read less

Sara and her team did a wonderful job outfitting our Noe Valley home with gorgeous window treatments. We needed help determining the best styling of the treatments and IDF provided that guidance--we ended up with interesting and rich looks in each room that unified the entire house. IDF's attention to detail and product quality are stellar. We were always kept informed of scheduling or budgetary changes and given options on how to proceed given those changes. And the folks are so friendly! We will definitely use IDF again for any future interior design projects. Thanks, IDF! read less

After seeing what Kassin did to one of my associate's place at Jordan Park. I decided to have her give me a quote. Replaced the worn wooden flooring, triple pane tinted windows, bartender style sink & weather proofed all around. I'm now a happy camper. Its nice to sip my favorite beverages again in the morning watching the sunrise & the sun set as the day reaches to a closing. For the quality of work it was a reasonable. They were very neat & tidy throughout the process. Non-disturbing or loud to our surrounding neighbors. I will use IDF for all my interior needs. Thanks, IDF. read less

She did an amazing job adding warmth and whimsy to our living room, designing an incredible playroom for our kids, adding much needed photographs and art to our walls, and helping us pick out a dramatic light fixture for our dining room.

Kassin is professional, detail oriented and very much attuned to her client's budget concerns. She is an excellent listener and highly skilled at providing great design options in a way that saved me plenty of time skimming through magazines and websites or visiting stores. Working with her and the rest of her time was fun, yet efficient. She has a great eye for design.

We have a couple of projects coming up and I can't wait to work with her again. read less

We intend on using her company once we have had a chance to settle in, so we will update the review after that time.

Kassin is super nice, responsive, and helpful. She sent us some stuff to help us create a budget and was willing to work on a tight schedule if necessary. She was also very friendly and appeared to be open to working with various budget types. I called more than five different interior design companies, and I felt the most comfortable talking to Kassin. Her prices also appear very reasonable. read less
