Spacemakers

I wanted to move 2 room around in my flat, but it involved a lot of small details I didn’t want to deal with alone, Danae was the perfect choice. I found her on Unilocal and after reading her reviews, decided to give her a try. I liked that she didn’t charge for the initial consultation, and she gave me a lot of time, what sold me was that after we talked, she drew a picture of exactly what I wanted, in scale with measurements to show me how everything could fit, and she did it in about a minute!
Danae was easy to work with and she charged by a sliding scale, depending on your income, quite refreshing. I will definately seek her help again when I have another project that requires great organizational skills.

I am organizationally and cleanliness challenged and felt very overwhelmed by clutter in my small apartment. Both my boyfriend and I use the space as a painting studio and a living space. It was so messy and disorganized that cleaning it up seemed insurmountable.
When I contacted Danae, she was very supportive and understanding. I told her that I was embarrassed to even have her come in. She said «Everyone says that.»
I decided to just have her focus on the art area of the room and she came in an got right to work. She moved my furniture around and reused everything and opened up the room in a very refreshing, amazing way. She told me I didn’t have to get rid of anything if I didn’t feel like it but I went on a rampage and got rid of 11 shopping bags full of books (which she hauled away for me.)
She worked solidly for 5 hours and completely transformed my apartment. I can’t praise her highly enough.
It is so nice to finally be free of that overwhelming mess and clutter.
I feel like a new person!
I had wanted to hire an organizer for years but was reluctant because i thought MY mess was beyond help and it would be prohibitively expensive.
It was not. Actually I was super surprised how reasonable it was.
I will be calling her again. I love Danae!!!

Danae is frigging awesome.
I have spent two years living like a gypsy: clothes in boxes, things squirreled away — well, God knows where. Too much work to do and — when I had free time — I sure didn’t want to organize.
To surprise my husband — who is away on a biz trip — I called Danae in to do the impossible: go through all my clothes and boxes in the bedroom, then tackle the garage. Danae showed up and worked like a house afire — she literally TACKLES the job with tremendous enthusiasm and a sharp sense of what needs to be done.
Within a few hours, the bedroom was spotless — with room to spare for clothes. We could park the car neatly in the garage — it was spacious! And Danae carted off all the stuff no longer needed, then returned with the Goodwill receipts.
She has made my life so much better because I feel in control again. Thanks, Danae — and I’m telling EVERYONE about you!!!

Danae did a great job organizing several areas/​categories of stuff in my small apartment. She was fast, helpful, warm, and very understanding. I had been meaning to organize and purge my space for months, but the task was practically and (mostly) psychologically daunting. Danae met with me and listened carefully to what I wanted, asked me questions to help clarify what needed to be done, and then made some suggestions on how I could get started before the next time she came. In the span of a few hours (2 separate visits), she helped transform my apartment from a cluttered, messy-​looking cave into a more spacious, visually clearer home. She was especially helpful in corraling all the little bits and bobs floating around on my desk and other surfaces, creating order out of chaos. My head feels much clearer now when I am home, and I have Danae to thank!

We had Danae organize a storage closet and a large portion of our garage. She did a fantastic job with both, and left us with 2 very organized and user-​friendly spaces. We will definately have her back if we need any more organizing around the house!

I have lived in two different places where Danae has done her magic quickly and very efficiently!
When I lived in a small studio where the main living area was too cramped for everything that I had, Danae absolutely worked her magic! I had two wardrobes, a full sized bed, huge tv and stand, two organizer drawers/​bins, tons of books… and absolutely no organization/​places to put things! Danae not only organized the entire space so that it was easy to put things away and keep things looking neat, she also made enough room to add a small couch! It was absolutely unbelievable!
When I moved to a larger space, I knew who to ask to help me organize and reconfigure my space! In this new space, I had larger furniture (including a California king sized bed, large entertainment armoire, desk, book shelf, many end tables, lamps, chairs, and other random odds and ends. For some reason, though I was in a much larger space, it still felt cramped and just felt wrong. Within hours, Danae moved things around so now my room feels like there is flow, like I can actually take a breath again! Before, there was absolutely no way I could get around without feeling like I had this huge bed constantly in my way. Now, not only is there a natural feeling of flow in my room, I actually have enough room to put in a full sized couch and still work out comfortably!
When Danae comes in, she seems to have a natural understanding of what will fit in your space, and immediately can give you a sense of how to get things organized. She has a good eye and can work with you with what you have! My biggest regret is not remembering to take pictures of before and after so that you all could see what an awesome job she could do for you. As I mentioned before, Danae works quickly, efficiently, and definitely will not break your bank! I have recommended her to everyone I know, and I know she makes everyone happy!

Danae is positively gifted at this work. The amount of space she creates, even after I’ve done my best to organize, is shocking.
In the jam-​packed garage I share with four other people, a lot of material comes and goes over time. Here, nobody asks when I’ll be able to update our organization; they ask when I’ll be able to have Danae back.
Her work has been economical enough that I’ve had her work for me a few times, and I won’t hesitate to hire her again.
