TRANSFORM YOUR SPACE IN A DAY - USING MAINLY WHAT YOU ALREADY OWN
A FULL ASSESSMENT OF WHAT’S WORKING & WHAT IS NOT:
optimize your SPACE & LAYOUT
improve LIGHTING & STORAGE
get some ART on the walls
make your HOME OFFICE work
Whatever the challenge, we address it together – in real time. Quickie is designed for people who might not normally think to hire a designer. They don’t really know what to do with their space but know they need to do something. They have limited time, budget and don't necessarily want to buy all new furnishings. By having an expert eye come in & take a fresh look at everything you already own, we identify & address your biggest challenges. Work through what looks good and not so good. Provide suggestions for key purchases. By the end of the session, your space will feel transformed from impossible – to functional, comfortable, sexy & fun.
SOME QUICKIE REVIEWS ARE BELOW.
How did you feel afterward
Ummmm, I can’t believe this is the same apartment!!! I never thought I would have a room that would flow. Or a salon wall using what I already own. She took my living room and created empty space, two sitting areas, dining area, and a workspace. It was a fun day and the whole room transformed in hours, using what I already had. -Meredith G.
I am in love with my apartment! Christina was instrumental in helping me figure out the best layout. She came up with things I never would have come up with on my own! -Liz H.
who would most benefit from a Quickie
If you've got a specific project in mind (e.g. one room makeover, lighting, layout, etc.) People living in tiny spaces and in need of help maximizing the space. -Julie R.
I think anyone could benefit. A person’s first apartment. Someone moving from one apartment to another space and trying to make their things work. Someone starting a family and needing to rearrange. Someone looking to redo their apartment. Pretty much anyone. -Damien G.
What’s your favorite thing about your Quickie
The concept is revolutionary and perfect for those who like to take things slowly without a full commitment to large scale design, and how to approach a designer with a minimal need (that may turn into a major re-do or new design, but not quite there due to a budget or time) due to possibly feeling intimidated. - Pam M.
It's FUN.
How did Quickie differ from your expectations
When you live in a space for a while, you get stuck thinking there is one layout possible. So while I thought about things being in different places I didn’t actually think it could happen. I wasn’t expecting what I already own to work. So in every sense the quickie exceeded my expectations. I have random items and I couldn’t believe she made it all work. -Charlie M.
What are your thoughts on Quickie length of time, pricing
An excellent option for people who are short on time and on a budget! -Julie R.
I think the time, pricing, and value are spot on. I can’t believe that after one day I have a transformed space like I have. I have been in a few apartments in my building and the flow of mine is so unique yet make so much sense. While this was investment for me it is worth it. -Sophie G.

And where we ended up. So if your space looks anything like the above, don't despair.
WILLIAMSBURG LOFT : BROOKLYN
The majority of furnishings here are vintage or previously owned. This adds lots of character & gives access to amazing options at a fraction of the cost. It's a great way to enhance an overall design. And who needs all that new furniture being made anyway, when there's so much good stuff out there already.

ABOUT
CHRISTINA AGNES LOVE IS THE FOUNDER of Love Design.
She believes the ultimate goal of great design is to create a space you just don't want to leave. A space you're excited to come back home to and one that you can't wait to share with people you love. It feels calm, beautiful and right.
After receiving a BA from UC Berkeley and MBA from Harvard Business School, Christina worked in management consulting, then advertising while based in Paris, Madrid & NYC. Despite all this excitement, her dormant creative side finally won out. She decided to attend the School of Visual Arts and then founded Love Design.
She divides her time between New York and the tiny resort town of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Christina resides in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, a constant source of new energy and inspiration.
