We are currently working with Renata on the estimating and design phase of renovating our entire 1950 era house as well as doing a master suite addition. It is going to be a huge investment for us which in itself is scary, but just to give our background, we are also coming off a bad experience with a previous contractor where we lost our first installment when he passed unexpectedly. We subsequently interviewed probably a dozen contractors without finding anyone we felt we could trust, or with a solution for the problems our house presented. When we found Renata we were so impressed with her comprehensive and innovative view of the design and fit for the house that we hired her. She was very warm, down to earth, and understanding and empathetic with our situation. And, she truly has a gift for design. Almost immediately she was able to see how taking down some walls and opening up the interior could change the entire flow and feel of the house, in a way that would feel organic to the house. Her design for the addition is functional, beautiful and fits with the rest of the house. She intently listened to us in the estimating phase and has really guided us through our many worries and questions and revisions. Her estimates have been thorough and meticulous, and she has foreseen many things we have not thought about. We feel confident in her amazing abilities and so importantly, safe with her, and are looking forward to continuing on to the build phase. We could not recommend Renata more!Read More

We had an amazing experience working with Renata from Decasa Designs on our indoor playroom. As our neighbor and a fellow mom, she truly understood both what our 6- and 9-year-old girls wanted *and* what we wanted as parents for the space.
Renata designed a playroom that is fun, functional, and safe. She thoughtfully incorporated everything the kids had dreamed of—an indoor sensory swing, a ceiling-hung net like a hammock, a rock-climbing wall, and soft mats to ensure safety. She coordinated seamlessly with vendors and took care of all the details, making the entire process completely stress-free for us.
What really sets Renata apart is her ability to balance creativity with practicality. The space looks beautiful while still being incredibly kid-friendly and well-planned. Our girls absolutely love it, and it has quickly become their favorite room in the house.
We couldn’t be happier with the result and highly recommend Renata and Decasa Designs to anyone looking to create a thoughtful, well-designed space for their homs.Read More

I am not able to say enough great things about my renovation experience! From the design phase through to the final walkthrough, the team was absolutely exceptional. My home is an older, single level house with a very chopped up floor plan, and they completely transformed it into a beautiful, open concept space. They created my dream kitchen and made the entire home feel larger, brighter, and more functional than I ever imagined possible. Every detail was thoughtfully planned and perfectly executed. I could not be happier with the results. It truly feels like a brand new home!Read More

We recently had the pleasure of working with Renata from Decasas Designs to renovate our dated bathroom into a luxurious, spa-like retreat. This isn't our first experience with Renata; we first collaborated with her back in 2020 for a complete kitchen renovation during the early days of the pandemic. Despite the challenges, she managed to get us back into our home within the committed timeframe, showcasing her exceptional dedication and project management skills.
Renata's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of her work. She uses hand-selected subcontractors who are not only reliable but also incredibly talented craftsmen. Throughout the entire renovation process, Renata was extremely responsive, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and efficiently, like a well-oiled machine.
What truly sets Renata apart is her comprehensive approach to project management. Her attention to every detail, from the timing to the installation of each phase, made the entire process stress-free for us. We never had to worry about a thing, knowing that we were in capable hands.
The result? A stunning, luxurious bathroom that perfectly complements the style of our home. Every element, from the fixtures to the finishes, exudes elegance and sophistication, making it a true centerpiece of our living space.
If you're considering a home renovation and want a seamless, worry-free experience with outstanding results, we highly recommend Renata and Decasas Designs. Her dedication, craftsmanship, and impeccable project management will transform your home into a masterpiece.

Working with Renata was a fantastic experience from start to finish. She took the time to truly understand what I wanted—and more importantly, what would work best for my home. I live in a 100-year-old Craftsman cottage, and Renata respected the character of the house while suggesting thoughtful updates that elevated the space without feeling out of place.
She managed several major improvements for me, including the addition of a dormer and new hardwood floors upstairs as well as a beautifully designed sunroom. The sunroom, with its large windows and warm, natural feel, has become the highlight of my home. Every detail feels cohesive and intentional, blending seamlessly with the original structure.
Renata’s communication, organization, and design insight made the process smooth and low stress. She also brought in a team of skilled and professional contractors—every trade she brought on was timely, respectful, and delivered excellent workmanship. It was clear she only works with people she trusts, and that made a huge difference in the overall experience.
Most of all, I appreciated how Renata didn’t try to upsell or push trends. She was honest, collaborative, and focused on creating a space that worked for my lifestyle and tastes. I felt heard, supported, and inspired every step of the way.
I’m thrilled with the results and already looking forward to the next project with her. I highly recommend Renata and Decasas Designs to anyone seeking a designer who truly listens, respects the integrity of your home, and delivers outstanding results.Read More
