I've worked with Angela for about 5 years now. I met Angela when I was expecting my son and was working on designing his nursery. At our first meeting, she walked into my home and felt like a warm sunny breeze. She did the most unexpected thing - asked if she could look in my closet (acknowledging that it was an odd request). She pulled out pieces of my jewelry, accessories and clothes that spoke to her and helped her understand me. She did the same with my husbands items, so she could understand us as family.
This is Angela. She aims to deeply understand her clients and curates her design accordingly. Because of Angela's warmth and positivity, she also places a fresh and natural thumbprint on her design, which I value greatly! I feel at peace in my home and love being in it. She has always sourced truly unique pieces within my budget and helped me balance forever pieces with non-forever ones seamlessly. I can't really make a design choice - minor or major - without consulting her!

I hired Angela shortly after I signed the contract on my home and after interviewing several interior designers. I was not only impressed with her ideas for my space, but also how much she cared about making sure that the space was a reflection of me and my interests. We spent as much time talking about the potential for my space as we did about my interests and personal style. All too often, designers try to impose their own style and vision on a space that you have to live with every day; Angela was conscious of my style, where I was in life and my own vision and provided guidance and advice that turned my home into a better version of myself.
I've always felt comfortable telling her my budget and timeline and she's always exceeded my expectations in coming up with a solution that fit my budget and looked fantastic. I can't say enough about wonderful she has been throughout the process.

My husband and I hired Angela to design our new home in 20 hours. We set a budget for ourselves and tried our very best to stick with it (which included a designer fee). Angela's taste level is impeccable and she was able to turn our house into a home right from the get go. We cannot believe how much she was able to accomplish in a mere 20 hours. Numerous options of various furnishings were emailed to me and a shopping day to accessorize added the necessary touches to make my husband, myself and my son feel at home. Although we still have some pieces to order, the initial 20 hours spent with Angela were well worth it. I would highly recommend her services to anyone that is looking for help in decorating their home.

A rare find.
We know what that feels like when we have discovered a rare find. Something that speaks to us, invigorates our sense of esthetics, makes us feel like we have happened upon something that few others have and it makes us feel unique among the masses, special.
That can be said for my cool bedroom chandelier found at a vintage furniture store or the reclaimed Chicago steel hand-made bar in my kitchen, or my medical equipment desk that has been refashioned into a bathroom vanity.
But “a rare find” can also be used to describe Angela Stone. And that she is.
Angela “got” me. Understood my love of things old, leather, linen with a hint of contemporary style mixed in. She got it, she ran with it, and the results have culminated in a home that is warm, inviting and wonderful to return to every day.
I love my home full of rare finds. And for anyone looking to work with a creative, inventive and thrifty designer they, too, will discover a rare find in Angela Stone.
