TESTIMONIALS
We are blushing as our clients are gushing!

Adina Hall is the most talented designer I have ever met. She is a trained architect who has worked for the best firms in the world and so she has both the scientific knowledge and the artistic taste necessary to make the space come to life. She is also a great person who makes other people feel good and you will be comfortable with her as an advisor.
We were recommended her services by a construction company and the minute I browsed the Adina Hall website I knew that I loved every room she had designed. My inclination was to simply copy those rooms-which would have been the easy way out. She instead got to know my family and child and created a home based on our personality and interests that also held together in a thematic unity. So, it has the professionalism of a restaurant or hotel, but with our personality!
She is totally responsive to all our questions and I learned a lot from how she worked and thought about the process.[...] She is also extremely organized and transparent and we trust her completely to make the right choices not just in terms of design but also trying to ensure the best pricing/sourcing. She also has an excellent network in terms of construction team to ensure the project gets executed well. Adina has great training, talent, artistic ability, creative vision, and treats people so well. We feel lucky to have met her.

"Adina helped with design and furniture selections for our new home build. She has amazing taste and took our vision and applied it throughout the entire house. Guests always remark how beautiful our place is. I love that the entire house feels cohesive with the design and has an elevated light/airy feel. She also selected great materials when it comes to the stones and woods throughout. I appreciate the small details she helped with like the stones on our shower floor and the elongated cabinet pulls that are the perfect scale. Thank you for making our dream home come to life!"

"I have worked with Adina Hall Architecture & Interior Design on three personal residential properties as well as my corporate headquarters. At the onset of each project, Adina spent a significant amount of time learning about my lifestyle/business as well as my personal taste and vision. And with each project, she was successful at extracting what I could not quite vocalize in terms of what I wanted. She humanized the design process so I could understand each step, helped frame my ideas into attainable aspects in each environment, and quite frankly was able to guide me back to a path when my thoughts had drifted."

I highly recommend Adina as a designer! I worked with Adina to help me create a layout for and furnish a one bedroom apartment I was moving into. She helped me identify the right mix of styles for my taste, found some really amazing pieces, helped accommodate the budget I had, and found some great discounts once I was ready to buy. I'm very satisfied and am so much happier with my apartment than if I had done it myself instead of working with Adina.

Adina was an absolute asset and a very knowledgeable professional whom we hired to design 2 homes simultaneously in Austin TX. We quickly learned her skills far out weighed those of any local talent. We could not have made a better choice and can't wait to use her on our next project.
She was adaptable and quick to make important decisions when unforeseen supply issues arose. She was very accommodating and available whenever we needed her.
She put a lot of time and effort into doing research to understand the Austin TX market in order to provide color design and material direction. She was on point in her ability to appease local demands even though she's based in Chicago.
We could not have been as successful as we were without her talents and experience. She met all timeline and budget requests and continually exceeded our expectations.
Adina is truly caring and a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend her and I am confident she will help you realize your project's highest potential.

"Adina Hall was highly appreciated by the company in her role as Project Architect for the Village Market, a multi-level shopping center, from which she took the design development concept to a permitted set of construction documents. Additionally, Adina helped me in marketing the Chandler commercial space although it was outside of her arena of responsibilities and she created a strong relationship with the client for the company. I highly recommend her as a Design or Project Architect for projects of any size and scope."

"Adina Balasu is one in the next evolution architectural designers on the verge of being discovered. A context specific design approach results in organic compositions with complex – but functional and natural – spatial relationships as demonstrated in design exercises of the ‘Chameleon’ and the ‘Confluence’. Ms. Hall's drive for design innovation and excellence will prove to shape communities and respond positively to the eco-environment. As a colleague, she has helped to form new visions in the way we practice and communicate our design message and philosophy. With Adina's conviction, your next design project is bound to be a success!"

Highly recommend Adina for any type of interior design, renovation, concept work, architectural designs etc.
Adina is a visionary that takes in her client's goals and constraints, helps them articulate a vision, builds a concrete plan and sees it through execution.
One example was a bathroom renovation project in Chicago. We wanted a refresh of the wall and shelving within a defined budget. Adina prepared a plan and came with several samples for tiles and ideas for the new shelving. After we settled on the new bathroom look, she recommended several vendors for each element and even drove me to some of these. I still remember the discussion about the accent pieces :-). While at the time I didn't understand the significance, I saw it all come together at the end where that little accent shows up in three places to create a cohesive effect.
Another project was after our move to Sweden. Adina advised us remotely on the interior design of our new apartment. Same level of high quality and execution as we're used to! Adina took in the apartment blueprints, had several calls with us on Skype and recommended furniture selection and arrangement in the apartment. She even scanned the Scandinavian furniture retailers for us. When it came to the ceiling lamps, Adina helped us understand how important the light element is, complete with details of how the light will reflect depending on what type of lamp we purchase. It was invaluable advice especially considering that it is dark almost half the year here.
