JAN BURKET INTERIOR DESIGN

While on paper JBID boasts an impressive list of KC references, for our specific taste and requests she appeared to struggle and did not appear altogether comfortable with the modern, progressive, clean look that we aspired. In fairness, at the outset she admitted never having heard of our look of "choice" Kelly Hoppen, so we allowed her to borrow our copy of "Kelly Hoppen Style, the golden rules of design". Regrettably, there is an insurmountable conflict of interest when your designer & GC are related,and if something goes wrong with one of them. We should have been more careful.Her ideas were Ok, but not stupendous,the installation was awful, but most disturbing was her abrupt attitude reversal towards us after rejecting her initial, outrageously inflated, "retail purchases". The relationship was then doomed. My opinion is that JBID is best suited to more formal/old world engagements. She should also distance herself from the son in-law contractor Kitt Starr: www.jococ
