When I moved out from our over 500-sqm house in the suburbs and into a four-storey, all-concrete townhouse with my own family, one of the things that I dearly missed was having a garden. My childhood bedroom window used to face the west, and outside was a backyard populated by a large santol tree, an […]

I asked Camyl to come up with a design and shop list that would fit my meager budget, and she delivered a reasonably-priced design promptly. I may not have been a big client, but she paid attention and considered all my concerns nonetheless.

I love how GREAT a listener Camyl is. When the proposal was given to us, it included so many details she picked up from our call that really made us feel listened to. The design was very smart, practical, and very easy to execute. The eDesign service is perfect for us who live abroad. I’m very grateful we have access to such amazing design talent even when we are all the way here.

As a new homeowner, I have my own idea of how my space should look like. With Camyl onboard, all I did was set the general direction for my unit—and she did the magic through and through. It was styling studiously perfected by years and years of practice and dedication to her craft. What I most appreciated about Camyl’s work is her eye for the littlest details. Five stars.

I’m really happy with the interior service because I didn’t have to go around stores trying to figure out what items would work for my home. I like that Camyl would just send me the list per room with pricing, so I can pick out what I like!

You are so good, Camyl. You just stare at a spot for a few minutes then you start moving things around—and suddenly everything looks nice. You have the Midas Touch!

We loved the ease of online consultations with Camyl, she was very thorough and always provided us time to give feedback on the design. We asked for an updated and timeless design, as well as more storage, and we got just that.

Working with the Gal at Home Team completely surpassed all of my expectations. I figured I would fill out a survey and then get a simple design plan. Instead, I had incredible conversations around my design style and preferences, they created custom artwork for me, offered multiple options for all of the suggested furniture (I loved it all) and they did a 30+ minute walkthrough of every recommendation. It was incredible and so simple to follow.

It was a challenge for me to decorate and furnish a small condo as I work and live overseas. I’ll never regret asking for professional help. Gal at Home delivered the services that I wanted. Camyl and her team did an awesome job. They were very patient and professional.

Gal At Home has provided us excellent online design service. We were overwhelmed with so many choices and we really needed someone to put us in the right direction of planning our space.
