"Hire Christine Chaney because she is a cut above any other design professional you will work with. She begins by truly listening and understanding your brand, values, and needs. Then she mixes in her creative energy and vast knowledge of materials, architecture, color, and style to create a unique experience for you. Her organization and project management skills mean that she shows up prepared and guides each project to a successful close. She lifts the whole project team up through her insight, optimism, creativity, and productivity. Chaney will level up your brand as a lived experience. Your team and your customers will feel the difference." 

Sarah Bird, CEO Moz (Design Lead w/ Marvin Yamaguchi on 40,000SF new headquarters)

“Working with Christine Chaney is always a treat. She brings a fun, yet professional energy to each project, and her imagination, enthusiasm and creativity inspire the people around her. As a designer, her ability to harmonize creativity and common sense stands out. When presented with situations or site constraints that impact her work, she is able to improvise solutions that preserve the intent of the original design concept. As a team member, Christine is an excellent communicator. She consistently works well with and values the insights of all players on a project, from clients to craftsmen. Christine is always a pleasure to work with and we look forward to working with her again.”

"Working with Christine is like working with an old friend who knows exactly what you're seeking, often before you do. She approaches projects in a way that meets your every need while regularly exceeding your expectations with brilliant new ideas along the way. Whether you have a comprehensive project or just need some advice, she is phenomenal at devising ways to enhance a space.

She can help across an entire project, from ideation, planning, and prototyping to design, construction, and acceptance. Christine also has an exceptional network of trustworthy vendors and subcontractors as well as fantastic sources for finishes, furniture, and lighting. Now that we've had the privilege of working with Christine on a few projects I have no doubt she will remain our secret weapon for designing and building exceptional spaces."

Jamie Steven, CTO Ookla (Design Lead on 10,000SF new workplace)

"I just had the pleasure of working with Christine on a multi-million dollar home in the Queen Anne neighborhood.  Building a home in the Pacific Northwest right now can be daunting.  You won't have to worry about that with Christine.  She will go above and beyond to help design your home, partner with the builder and architect to build your home, and then become a real advocate for you if anyone tries to cut corners.  She won't allow it.  You need an advocate that understands all phases and can match your passion to carry out your vision.  You may pay a little more for her, but you will get all that money back 10 fold when you look at the final product. She is tireless! She gets a perfect score from me."

Don O’Neill- residential client

“Christine Chaney has an innate ability to combine vision with common sense.  Though I was hamstrung by budget constraints, she was able to coax the very best from my space and our business has been rewarded by those efforts.  She sought my input from the beginning, and harangued me back into place when, on occasion, I suggested we stray from the plan.  Chaney joined my construction team onsite whenever an unforeseen design problem occurred, and her ability to problem solve in real time proved invaluable in moving us forward on time and on budget.”
