Shandra Pettit served as project manager and interior designer for my home remodel and addition. The project was extensive. Shandra has a keen eye for all types of design and was able to develop functional cabinet and fixture layouts with finishes that matched the aesthetic I wanted. At the same time, she offered ideas on ways to maximize quality and design, while staying within our project budget. Shandra is a bright and personable designer. She is self-motivated and capable of achieving the goals she sets her mind to. Her passion for design, excellent communication skills and dedication to her clients ensures that the projects she works on are a huge success.

I was referred to Apropos Design by a friend and was told that i would not be disappointed and believe me i was was totally impressed with the finished work that was done to my home. Apropos Design had all the subs that i needed in place and all of them did a amazing job from the construction team for my kitchen, the stone company for my new fireplace, electricians, painters, and carpet company. They picked out new furniture for my rooms, area rugs for my floors, art work for the walls, new lighting fixtures, new ceiling fans and also picked out the new hardware for the kitchen and bathroom redo. My formal dinning room was transformed into a cocktail style sitting room which everyone that has seen it says with one word WOW… Look no further, Apropos design is your one stop design team.

We worked with Shandra from Apropos Design to plan a kitchen refresh, and we are thrilled with the results. She was amazing from start to finish! She kept our style, budget, and family in mind during every step and selection, and her desire to meet our needs was evident. Shandra’s keen ability to share her expertise in a collaborative manner elevates her above others in the field. She is highly respected by contractors in the area; therefore, she was able to match us with a contractor that matched our expectation levels for professionalism and quality. We can not thank Shandra enough for helping us turn our kitchen into our favorite room in the house!

Professionalism, Quality, Value. Shandra from Apropos is a gem to work with. Always happy and will go out of her way to help you find just the right fit for your space. She’s great with colors and she listens to what you want and your ideas, which is very important in a designer. They have to be able to see your vision and she definitely is able to take your vision and apply it to her knowledge. Thank you Shandra. I love my kitchen!

My husband and I had a million and a half ideas for our basement remodel but didn’t know how to edit or put it all together. Shandra and Jennifer really listened to what we wanted and came up with a sleek and FABULOUS design that incorporated nuances of almost every idea/concept we had… and made all of it work together in such beautiful harmony. They spent time getting to know us and our dogs 🙂 and took the time to discuss all the material that would be used. I can’t wait until we can begin construction!

Shandra is amazing! The first time I met her I knew immediately that I would enjoy working with her. She’s just a spark of sunshine. Every time we met for a consult, we had such a good time that we usually didn’t want to stop talking. I had a lot of my own ideas and opinions coming in, and she easily meshed those together with her own great ideas and expertise. She always made sure I was happy and confident with all of the choices we made, no matter how long it took me to decide. Add the fact that our project was about 2/3rds finished and then the pandemic hit – she never skipped a beat. She had to deal with some delays due to items being back ordered or samples needing sanitized between customers and she handled them seamlessly and with great care to keep us on track, but also safe at the same time. I have gained a friend while working with her and I’m so happy with the final product that we built together. Thank you!!

Shandra was so easy to work with on our basement finishing project. She had wonderful ideas, was extremely responsive, engaged in the process and fun to be around! We had a really tricky basement pole right in the middle of the room. She had the idea to make a beautiful bookshelf out of it and it is the best part of the room. I would definitely call her again!

Shandra is extremely professional and knowledgeable. She was clearly passionate about helping us execute the vision we had for our new home. At first we weren’t certain about hiring an interior decorator, but she proved to be very valuable. She had great ideas and brought up a lot of things we hadn’t thought about before. Thanks Shandra!
