For all your decorating/design needs Referred by Jens List member noellison@me.com “Dawn Moore is more than just a designer/decorator. She has the instincts and intuition that immediately crystalized my vision & also has a wealth of formal knowledge in all areas of design. She became a friend who was able to guide me through a tough transition with compassion & understanding. She can be as hands on as you want or just a reassuring person to bounce ideas off of. Aside from her artistic gift for decorating, her passion and enthusiasm for her work and her tenacity and integrity she is also a fun, easy going person with whom I felt an instant connection. Whether you just need another pair of eyes to move things around or you want a total overhaul, I recommend her.”
