Customer Feedback:
Dar Greenberg
“I had never worked with a color consultant before, but Dar is truly an artist. She knows the emotional balance of colors. Sometimes we’d look at a color, discuss how I felt about it, and come up with exactly what I wanted. The work is never about her, it’s about you and what you alone want. She really cares about trying to identify just what that is. She is not about pushing her taste on someone.”

Customer Feedback:
ABC Windows
“I own an apartment building with 80 units, and they’ve worked on at least half of them. I’ve been a general contractor for 40 years, dealing with all kinds of people from plumbers to roofers. I like ABC’s work and their products— and ther bids are always better than other companies.“
