"We've had the pleasure of working with Dayna as our designer for over a decade. From a partially gutted co-op to a full gut renovation, and now a brand-new build, she's been with us every step of the way. I truly wouldn't trust anyone else to guide us through the countless decisions—whether it's the critical plumbing and electrical layout or the more playful choices like the perfect wallpaper for a powder room. Her eye for design and meticulous attention to detail have made each of our homes uniquely special."

"Dayna is a brilliant designer. My husband and I have engaged Dayna to work with us on two extensive NYC apartment renovations. We’ve been absolutely thrilled with the beautiful interiors that she’s created for us. One of Dayna’s superpowers, which our homes have reflected in spades, is the ability to translate each client’s particular lifestyle and likes into the perfect customized design.
Jane
"Dayna has an impeccable sense of design that adapts to her clients' style. Some designers have a distinctive style they repeat from client to client. Not Dayna. She was firm in her advice when she needed to be in order to steer us in the right direction, but it was always with the goal of helping us refine our own style. (You'll know the look on her face when you make a poor design suggestion!) Almost 10 years later, we couldn't be happier with our apartment and with Dayna."
