Dara Agruss is an absolute dream to work with! She completely transformed our dining room, powder room, entry way, living room, and my older daughter’s bedroom for her birthday, and the results are beyond anything I could have imagined.
I’m someone who struggles to visualize what spaces can look like, and I easily get overwhelmed when faced with too many choices. Dara was a lifesaver in that regard—she truly listened to what mattered to both my husband and me and came back with just 2-3 curated options each time, making the process stress-free and enjoyable.
Before working with Dara, I had tried RH’s design center, and it just wasn’t the right fit for me. I mentioned a couch I liked but wasn’t sure if it would suit our space, and instead of guidance, I was handed a massive book of fabric options to choose from. It felt more like a push to make a sale than helping me make the right choice. Dara, on the other hand, was the complete opposite. She understood that we have two small kids and made thoughtful recommendations, like choosing less expensive upholstery for the dining room where spills are more likely, while suggesting higher-quality fabric for the living room. I never once felt like I was being sold on anything.
For someone who doesn’t have a natural eye for design, Dara is my secret weapon to make it seem like I do. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!
