Occupi Design

My husband and I hired Meghan to help us solve two problems: to figure out whether we could fit a sectional sofa in our living room and if so and to give us some ideas about how to make our bedroom a little less bland. In about an hour, Meghan was able to help us solve both problems. We ended up coming away with measurements for a sofa that would fit in our space that we were able to take to a furniture store, some suggested sofas to look at, suggestions for how to optimize the layout and storage in our bedroom, and paint colors that we ended up loving. Even changing the paint color in our room and tweaking the layout there made a huge, huge difference in our happiness in our house.
I think it is maybe difficult for some people to think about investing in the services of a designer, but we’ve said again and again since then about how much time and anxiety and probably one it has saved us since then because we ended up with paint and furniture that we loved right away. Having an outside eye also made the process of getting to a common place between what I wanted and what my husband wanted a lot easier.

Five out of five stars for Occupi Design and Meghan Brown!
I very strongly recommend Occupi Design for any remodel/​design needs you may have. Meghan Brown is FANTASTIC. She has incredible attention to detail and I found her willing to go the extra mile. She is also VERY knowledgeable in the requirements and/​or prohibitions of different building ideas. She was able to run interference on my building manger and the various contractors I had hired to complete my project and just generally made the whole thing so much less of a headache for me than it would have been otherwise.
On top of all that, she has an amazing sense of style and taste and is able to bring ideas to the table that I would have never thought of on my own. If you are considering hiring a designer do yourself a favor and hire Occupi Design.

Meghan has a good eye and really nice ideas about using space. We were a bit afraid that an interior designer would suggest a lot of new furniture that wasn’t very child-​friendly, or drive us to purchase a lot of expensive pieces. Meghan did neither. She assessed our home and our needs, and then gave us a very specific plan that took our lives into account and respected our family, our budget, and our tastes. She sent lists of furniture pieces, found stuff on sale, and contracted carpenters to do assembly and installation. Now we have room for our son and his buddy to play, our counters are clear, our filing has a home, and we have places for books and electronics outside of the toddlers’ reach. Our TV is finally wall-​mounted, we have a dining table that folds away so it does not become a paper storage area, and I have a desk again. We’re very impressed with her work and have already recommended her to friends!

I have been putting off the design project of our home mostly because I have no idea where to start. I recently worked with Meghan (of OCCUPI design) and within a few hours of the home visit, she gave me wonderful ideas that transform our home to a more appealing space. She also gave me shopping suggestion for furniture pieces, decluttering, plus how to display art work, etc. During our last hour, she helped me move pieces around so my living room is more welcoming to guests and our dining table was moved to a more convenient spot. We have started having dinner as a family at the dining table instead of in front of the TV and that transformation alone is worth every penny!
