Tali has done an excellent job in all aspects of our second floor addition. She has dealt with a very challenging city permit process, developed an innovative overall design, worked closely with our contractors and guided us with expert advice on fixtures and finishes. We have not been in the area for much of this project, but she has kept us informed of developments no matter where we have been. She combines a warm, friendly personal approach with a no-nonsense, get-it-done work attitude.

Tali has been a joy to work with. Her professionalism, integrity and great ideas are commendable. She listened well to all of our thoughts on the remodel and came back to us with all the things we wanted included plus some things we hadn't thought about. Great ideas! We are so excited to move forward with Tali's architectural plans. We highly recommend her.

Tali is very collaborative, both with me and with the contractor. She has an excellent eye for color and design, as well as an ability to communicate with contractors, translating my wishes into their vocabulary. She followed through weekly on this project, from beginning to end, and when she said something wasn't quite right, the crew listened to her and corrected everything. Tali staged the kitchen beautifully for the photographer. You will see the results soon on Houzz.

Tali's design sense, practicality and attention to detail are beyond compare. She provided detailed design drawings and then worked with the artisans on each grout line in the tile and the direction of the grain in each piece of wood. She was invaluable in all the subjective decisions (colors, textures and layout) and provided great practical advice and resources on the different plumbing and electrical decisions. Good design takes a lot of different skills, Tali has them all.

Tali Hardonag brought us in to help with the interior design aspect of a large remodeling project in Mountain View. She is a very talented and thoughtful architect who was able to redesign the home completely in a tasteful and functional way. She is reliable and easy to communicate with. Throughout the process, we were impressed with her attention to detail, problem-solving skills and thorough review of all the construction aspects. We hope to work with her again soon.

I've truly enjoyed working with Tali. The combination of attention to detail combined with big picture perspective has helped us feel more comfortable through this remodel process. She brings an energy and point of view of someone who actually "lives in a house." We were able to make some very smart choices early in the process because of how she took time to understand how we function as a family. I would not hesitate to recommend Tali Hardonag.

We worked with Tali on an addition to our mid century home and we are constantly blown away by the results of our remodel. Tali was wonderful to work with; on our first meeting she asked about our goals for the remodel and our long range plans for the home and as a family. She brought ideas to the table that maximized functionality, preserved the original design of our home and surprised us with more efficient ways to improve our home while staying within budget. Her involvement throughout construction was invaluable for us, she helped us make informed decisions and manage through all the details. Her design is intentional, personal and uniquely Tali.

I worked on the landscapes of several houses that were designed by Tali. What I saw again and again, was how very customized and personalized her designs are. She really gets her clients and brings their mutual vision to life with thoughtful designs and attention to the smallest details. One of the many tell-tale examples was a rounded corner in a master bedroom / walk-in closet that solved an entire slew of traffic flow problems. Very impressive what a difference a small change like this can make. I referred one of my best friends to her for a kitchen remodel and I know my friend is in good hands. As a colleague, I appreciate Tali for her responsiveness during the building phase. We are ...

Tali is among the very best that my firm has worked with. The recent project we completed together was 100% successful in every aspect. The design work is stunning, the process went smoothly, and we have extremely happy clients. The work consisted of a large body of remodeling, as well as the addition of a significant amount of square footage. Cost was in the > $500k range.
