“James and Claudia did a fantastic job with our apartment! They understood my expectations very well.

“I wanted to work with an interior designer but wasn’t sure my budget allowed for one. The virtual design service by Akiva was the perfect halfway house.
Nour came up with several great ideas that I hadn’t even thought of and unified my thoughts into a color and design palette. Very highly recommended.”
