I found Sommer and other Interior Designers on Houzz after looking at their portfolio. We met with many of them at our home and decided to partner with Sommer because of our comfort level communicating with her, her design ideas, and commitment to the project. Our house was a complete renovation which required ~6 months of construction, everything needed updating.

Sommer assisted us with the overall layout, interior/exterior paint colors, plumbing/lighting fixtures, cabinetry details, appliances, any and all thing necessary. She would meet us at the house, jump on the phone with us, respond to text messages, and communicate with our general contractor. I can't remember the exact number of times, but she was always willing to meet us at the house if we needed clarity on anything.

Sommer was instrumental in helping us bring our dreams to reality. Our house was no easy task, but with her services, our dream became reality. I can't thank her enough and we appreciate all of her work more than words can describe!!

Sommer was such a joy to work with as we decorated our new home. She started with us in the construction phase laying out floor plans for certain rooms. With almost all furniture being ordered online these days, she gave us confidence that the pieces we ordered would fit the space. She immediately picked up on our personal style and we are so pleased with how everything turned out! She was so responsive and really brought our house together so we could focus on building our house and moving in. We love Sommer and highly recommend her! If you have small children, she totally understands your needs and can make things family friendly while still contemporary.

Working with Sommer on our house renovation project was a really pleasant experience! I chose Sommer to help us because when I saw the pictures of her projects, I could imagine how people live in there. She blended all different elements in a space but yet seemed to be effortless and timeless. From that moment, I was pretty sure Sommer was the person that could help us create a space that not only comfortable to live in but also with nice details. It turned out that I made the right decision hiring her. Throughout the entire process, Sommer had always kept functionality, our budget and living style in mind. She did not encourage us to buy expensive furniture or using trending colors, she was able to work with what we already had and add new elements that all come together to create a space that is simple, bright, and has many pretty details that we love to live in. I cannot wait to work with Sommer on our next project!

When we first began our major remodel, I knew I would need guidance and am so thankful our contractor recommended Sommer. She was immensely helpful every step of the way - from meeting with our architect and planning the best flow for our family, to choosing where to put light switches and fixtures, to selecting furniture and the finishing touches - we could not have done this without her! She was also very patient with my husband’s and my very different tastes and was able to create beautiful spaces we both love. It was important to me for our home to have a classic, timeless, and inviting feel and that is exactly what Sommer created for us, with the perfect mix of old and new. She was so thoughtful down to the very last detail. I highly recommend Sommer and will absolutely be reaching out to her again when we are ready to remodel our master bath and bedroom.

Sommer helped me remodel our whole house in several phases. She was always a call or text away when i had questions. I loved the design plans she put together before hand so you can see exactly how everything looked together. When we sold that house she also helped us with the design phase of building our dream home and helped us furnish it after we moved in. If we ever moved again i would 100% call her.

From residential to commercial staging and design Sommer Tate is exceptionally talented. As real estate professionals, thoughtful attention to detail is a high priority for us and our clients in preparing a home to market for sale. Sommer possesses masterful skills to ensure proper and stylish presentation and to ready each property to expose it to the market. Most potential buyers begin their search for a property online so outstanding photos are key to entice a buyer to make an appointment to view a property. With Sommer’s expertise, we know the photos will shine every time. We have recommended Sommer Tate to many of our clients and have even enjoyed her help in our own home! Attentive, thoughtful, a true professional...just a few words that describe Sommer Tate!

Sommer did a great job decorating our downstairs for us. From helping us buy & coordinate furniture to picking out all the small pieces, she really came through and brought our modern vision together. Our living room, bedroom & dining room looks like it came straight from a magazine and we love it!

I absolutely loved working with Sommer on my master bathroom project! My contractor and I had a pretty good plan for the layout but I wanted help with colors and the myriad of fixtures and finishes. Sommer stepped in and gave me two great options very quickly. Since we were already in the demo stage, that was huge! She worked diligently to get tiles, vanities and fixtures ordered and delivered in a timely manner so the project wasn’t delayed. I cannot gush enough about how beautiful my bathroom turned out! I never would have put together the look on my own, but it was EXACTLY what I wanted! I will definitely be calling Sommer again for my next project!
