Studio TRACE LLC built me a beautiful bathroom, and I look forward to having them build me a new kitchen.

Traci was fabulous to work with. She is so creative and very patient. We told her what we wanted, and she showed us options that were spot-on every time we needed to make a decision. She even came to our rescue to fix problems she did not cause when we had a plumbing malfunction. Traci goes above and beyond to make her clients happy. She treats your project as if she is working on something for her own home.

We worked with TRACE to create a 2 story addition for our home. Traci met with us to discuss our needs and vision for the additional space. Even more, she took the time to get to know us and so we had a great rapport. We came with specific ideas for what the space might look like and Traci built off of those ideas to offer 3 options as a place to start. We used those to develop a final product. Traci is clearly someone who has a natural sense of space and an artistic eye but is also very knowledgeable about building requirements. As it turned out, we did not create the addition due to a relocation, however, we left the plans for the next owner to use. That said, we will work with Traci again on our next addition.

Traci D’Alessio at TraceDesign designed a kitchen remodel for us in our condominium. The previous kitchen was dated, with cheap white cabinets and a white ceramic floor that was impossible to keep clean, and felt sort of closed-in. We had three main goals for the remodel: 1. To open up the end of the kitchen to a view of the natural area beyond. It was previously closed in with cabinets. 2. To gain counter space, since we both cook and spend a lot of time in he kitchen. 3. To upgrade and update the cabinets and appliances. We found Traci very open to our ideas, easy to work with and prompt with her responses. We are delighted with the remodel. The feel of the kitchen is so much more open and in keeping with the natural area outside, the view is wonderful, and the birch cabinets and flooring harmonize with the colors of the outdoors, just as we wished.

We hired Traci to do a redesign of our large kitchen. Traci is a talented and thoughtful about her design and her interactions with her clients. She thinks "outside the box" and will provide you a range of options that meet your goals. She is also excellent with technology to help you visualize the possibilities of your project.

Traci did an absolutely spectacular job of creating a lovely guest room from an absolutely ridiculously complicated and constrained space. Her creativity and assistance in helping us think through what we were looking for and translating it into designs and finishes is greatly appreciated.

Traci designed and oversaw the completion of our kitchen. During the design phase, Traci provided us with 4 different drawings and thoroughly explained each one. We have a long narrow kitchen that never seemed to have enough space. With Traci's design, we now have more than enough counter and cabinet space. Even with our limited space, Traci was able to design an island that can seat 3 people! Traci was always available not only the during the design phase, but also during the construction phase. Traci's eye for maximizing a space's potential is phenomenal. Traci is a very conscientious architect and clearly enjoys what she does. Her enthusiasm is contagious!

Traci was professional, and wonderful to work with throughout my kitchen project. She was timely with our appointments and always took time to ask questions to make sure she understood my desired outcome with the project. Traci, was able to look at my kitchen and generate a design that stayed within my budget. As my consultant, she checked in periodically and gave specific suggestions regarding the contractors work. Traci's expertise in both the visual and structural aspects of the redesign was outstanding. Her ideas resulted in a change which is noticed and loved by everyone that walks into my kitchen. I look forward to working with Traci again!

We had a very complicated kitchen remodel -- our home was built 90 years ago . We wanted to preserve the style from that era while making design/flow more consistent with the efficiencies of present time. Traci D'Alessio did a phenomenal job in meeting this challenge. her thoughtful and meticulous approach, exceptional skills of listening, and genuine interest in our preferences resulted in an award winning kitchen. I would hire her again for any project. I will also mention that we had the added challenge of employing a design/build firm for our contracting/building needs which meant that at times there were conflicts and potential awkwardness with 2 architects involved. When it was necessary and she felt that the product might be compromised, Traci D'Alessio managed these potential conflicts well -- an underappreciated but VERY important skill. Last, Traci has an exceptional command of the most up-to-date technology in her profession. This enables her to make changes with lightning speed (in comparison to the surprisingly archaic methods of many local architects) -- this will save you not only time but money.
