here is what my clients say

She was there to guide us every step of the way.. .
Julie was amazing to work with on our condo remodel! We “touched” almost every surface area, and she was there to guide us every step of the way. Being new to Chicago, she helped us navigate the somewhat complicated details of contractors entering a downtown Loop condo building. Our building management loved working with Julie because they knew she was so responsible and considerate. Without fail she was willing to help in a moment’s notice. Julie answered all of our questions and listened to our needs in such a timely fashion. She was always A+ responsive to texts/emails which has not been our experience with other designers. Will definitely work with Julie again soon on our interior design furniture needs!

She has an eye for luxurious yet timeless finishes...
Julie is an amazing designer! We had the honor & pleasure of working with Julie for a year long project last year in Dallas. She has an eye for luxurious yet timeless finishes that make her one of the best in the business. She is great at communication and customer service. She is on top of every aspect of the design and project from start to finish. Her organization and attention to detail is the best I’ve seen in 15 years. Not only was Julie an amazing designer and customer, but she’s an even better friend. I highly recommend her to anyone in the Chicago or Dallas area looking for design or home furnishing services.

Julie made everything so easy by quickly grasping our style preference and presenting ideas accordingly. .
“Working with Julie on a complete remodeling and redecorating of our home was a very pleasant experience. Because we were out of the area during the renovations, most decision-making was done via Zoom meetings. Julie made everything so easy by quickly grasping our style preference and presenting ideas accordingly. Thus, the entire project moved along quickly and smoothly. I am grateful for Julie’s talent and professionalism and for giving our outdated home breathtaking beauty and new life.”

...always had great ideas and never put her ego into how we made our decisions.
“Julie is so capable, easy to work with, professional, imaginative and FUN! My wife and I have renovated many houses and condos in the last 25 years. We always go high end in our design and construction and what we got from Julie was just that. She always had great ideas and never put her ego into how we made our decisions. Julie has been such a delight to work with we almost want to buy another place just to have her work her design for us again. Super lady!”

All because of Julie's eye for decorating and details.
We have had the pleasure of working with Julie on three projects over the years. She always comes up with great ideas, easy fixes to problems and when working with contractors she has been our salvation!! With our last move we were able to blend two existing homes into one new one, merging furniture from both places plus adding new. All because of Julie’s eye for decorating and details. She goes above and beyond for her clients and friends. And we’re happy to call her our friend and decorator.

...injects a lot of wow factor...
Julie is simply amazing! She is professional, creative, always punctual, keeps an eye on the budget but at the same time injects a lot of wow factor, and she is fun to work with! She has a wonderful sense of design but is flexible and open to other ideas. I’ve loved the projects we’ve done together and can’t wait for the next one!

I can't imagine working with anyone else.
I have been working with Julie since 2012. After 10 years needless to say I can’t imagine working with anyone else. She is intuitive, responsible, organized and most important… I trust her. She has helped design two houses that became homes for me and my children. It is incredibly overwhelming building a home from the ground up. All the choices, decisions, deadlines, deliveries, contractors, vendors etc. etc. etc. but Julie stepped in and could not have made it easier. Her taste and style are impeccable, and she listens to what you like and don’t like, adjusting as needed. I would recommend her services to anyone. I have recommended her to family and friends. Even if you’re not sure, let her come in and talk to you about your project… you won’t be disappointed.

Julie will work with you to find the best product you will need for your home.
I have worked with Julie Dunfee Designs for over 5 years now and Julie has been responsible for the decoration/renovation/updating of two of my homes in Glenview. I find that Julie is very honest and responsive to any of my decorating needs. She has a very good list of tradespeople who can get the job accomplished in a fine and timely manner and keeps you updated of any changes that might occur with the project. Julie will work with you to find the best product you will need for your home. Her upbeat personality makes her a pleasure to work with and she takes a lot of pride in her work and making your home a showplace is her #1 focus. It is always a pleasure working with Julie on any project that I need done with my home.

Julie brings professionalism, creative energy, and cost saving ideas to the table while truly listening to your needs.
Julie was wonderful and more to work with! The initial idea was just for consult, but it evolved into Julie designing and overseeing the project updates for our dinning room and entryway. Julie brings professionalism, creative energy, and cost saving ideas to the table while truly listening to your needs and wants without pushing her own agenda - which made the whole experience so fun and easy! Thanks for all you did Julie, we are so pleased with how everything turned out. Looking forward to another project down the road.
