Kind Words
“I think that Polly may be a wizard! I worked with her to furnish an entire second home which was under construction in New Hampshire. Based on pictures and architect plans, Polly helped me to create beautiful, comfortable spaces that we are totally in love with. She asked great questions and listened carefully to my answers, and intuitively understood what I was hoping for, even before I knew what it was. Polly created floor plans and generated ideas for pieces that I could choose from and was very responsive to me.

In addition to her impressive skill with color, form and fabric, Polly is a delight with. She is patient, funny and deeply kind. Anyone would be lucky to be able to enlist her to design a space that they will love!"

“Enjoy your time working with Polly Corn! I have employed Polly for both big and small projects. She has helped me refresh a room and completely redo a room. She has also worked with me to design and furnish a full home. Polly has approached each project with a clear vision that includes understanding my design ideas, budget and timeline. She has a keen eye for details and is well informed on the nuances that come with working with contractors (be they builder, carpenter, window treatments, etc.). Enjoy Your time working with Polly. It will be fun.”

“I needed a completely remodeled kitchen, and had the pleasure of working with Polly to achieve that goal. It was a very small and challenging space, and I could not have been happier with the results. She listened to what I liked, and was very good at steering me in the right direction when selecting materials. What I liked best, was that when she knew something would not work, she was very diplomatic, but firm about taking another route. Anytime I wasn’t quite sure about something, her choices ended up being my absolute favorite ones. She is always approachable, professional and patient. She was always persistent in trying to move the project forward despite some less than cooperative contracting, which can certainly be challenging. I highly recommend her, and plan on using her services again when I remodel my bathroom.”

“Polly Corn Design was my first experience working with a designer. I quickly learned that there are areas in which I need to trust an experienced professional who can present possibilities which might never occur to me. Kitchen tile is a good example. Polly took me to a high quality tile store. She exposed me to possibilities that I never knew existed and very quickly a choice for just the right backsplash came together.
Polly’s excellent color sense was the key to developing the color scheme for my entire house. I participated actively and learned how a rug or fabric selection can then direct all other color decisions. Furniture selection is the hardest process for me to share with a designer. Before working with Polly, I made some furniture choices which did not “work out”. Polly helped steer me in the right direction. If I have to be the ship’s captain, Polly helped me to realize that I do need a harbor pilot before I actually dock the boat.”
