Margie’s expertise was incredibly helpful during our remodeling project. She communicated promptly and professionally with the contractor and was quick to contact companies to inquire about specific products. Margie’s list of professional contacts is extensive and provided us with options and ideas during the course of our project. Working with Margie was a joy!

Margie is terrific! I went through a monumental and stressful move downsizing from a rather large home that I was in for 33 years to a smaller residence in an adult community. Margie helped me furnish my new home, with furniture, lighting, window treatments, closet and shelving design and accessories. Not only did she help me through the process of furnishing my new home, but Margie followed up with all the vendors regarding delivery of furniture and any installations that might have been required. I am so pleased with the results and have had so many compliments from friends and other visitors. Enlisting Margie’s services has made this move so much easier!

Margie is a very talented and skilled interior decorator. I asked Margie to suggest a floor plan for my living room and she came up with a winning plan that was cozy, elegant and just right for our needs.

Not only is she creative, she is also very easy to work with and I trust her judgement and advice not only on floor plans, but for wall coloring and rug selection. She is very good at follow through and is wonderful to work with. I highly recommend her if you are looking for an interior decorator with a great eye for detail and color.

First off, let me just say that I would never have considered consulting anyone about lighting options for our home, but I am so glad we did!!! At our old home I was always frustrated with the lack of light in our living and dining room area. Once in our new home I knew that I wanted to make sure we accounted for plenty of light so as not to have the same problem. However, I was unsure exactly how to get started. With Margie’s prompting we broke our project down into layers which was extremely helpful and helped me to focus my energy on the decorative fixtures while she arranged the recessed and under cabinet lighting. Not only did she create a lighting plan which she supplied to our electricians, but she shopped around for the best prices and did considerable amounts of research to help us arrive at our desired look. If I were you, I would not hesitate to use Margie for your next project. She’s a great resource!

Margie assisted with our recent major home renovation and addition that achieved LEED Platinum certification. Margie was instrumental over the three year period in identifying sustainable building materials and associated documentation to meet the stringent LEED for Homes criteria. Margie researched items for safety, quality assurance, and environmental attributes for almost every area of the home. She identified products with third party certifications and produced the necessary documentation for filing. She worked well with our design team and collaborated on various materials and methods. I would recommend her for your next green building project.

For a healthy home, a well-lit home and one that speaks of you, the owner, ask Margie McNally, Interior Designer to be your guide, your guru, your expert!

She is easy to work with, has a calming way when you are living in the midst of construction, has the expertise and good eye to make educated and artistic suggestions and is a gem!

I would not build or remodel without Margie by my side!   Margie can walk into a room and in a moment tell you how to light it, arrange it and make it more livable and she does this in a calm, unpretentious manner! Need products and have allergies?   Margie will tell you what to use and help you stay healthy!”

I’ve worked with Margie for a couple of years.   I’ve found her to be knowledgeable about “green” or eco-friendly home products.   She is a pleasure to work with because she really listens to what you need and responds accordingly.   She always goes out of her way to find out things she doesn’t have at her finger tips.   As I’m very allergic to many things she has been very helpful in identifying products that will work best for me.   I’ve been very satisfied with the support Margie has given me.

The art of successful selling incorporates a number of ingredients, one being that we want to be understood. If I were to cite one of the many ingredients Margie brings to each customer is the passion and drive to listen for the need and to craft a viable solution.
I have been fortunate to have met Margie and share her many visions on the importance of lighting in relation to individual well-being. Margie is well versed in the latest in LED lighting and the importance of delivering the proper light where it is needed.

Those of us in the lighting industry today are experiencing significant changes with the advent of LED. Margie is well versed in new LED lighting technology and utilizes her knowledge to crest solutions to achieve customer expectations.

During the time Margie spent with our company, we realized the closure of many business opportunities in health care and retail operations in need of proper lighting.

Margie is a knowledgeable, creative and responsive teacher on the subject of building material selection. She cares about her students, and they feel that from the beginning. She has high standards,and is ready to work with her students to help them meet those standards. Margie is a conscientious member of our team. She cares about her subject and is in constant search of new information, approaches, and tools. I direct the program in which Margie has taught the longest at the BAC. I have recommended her to my colleagues with other programs, and her efforts in those programs have been well received. I highly recommend Margie to your organization.
