“I can not say enough about how amazing Ashton has been. We are first time builders and she has helped us every step of the way. Way back in the beginning stages we were struggling with the architect’s drawing of the outside of our house and Ashton, having an architectural background, did a sweet sketch and it was perfect! Ashton has been so easy to work with- she is kind and attentive but willing to help us make the right decision and also pivot when and if needed. Her ability to source just about anything in a timely manner is incredible. Building this house during tremendous supply issues has had its challenges but Ashton was on top of when to order items so we have not had any true delivery problems. She is quick to reassure, and go over and over our choices when I have second guessed my decision. It has been a pleasure working with Ashton and I would for sure recommend her for any style design project. Simply the best!” -Heather Hoffman, client, Greenville, SC (2021-22)

“I was having a problem choosing a color to paint my entire downstairs. I have an open floor plan which makes it a challenge to find a color that works with every room! I called Ashton for help. She arrived on time and I was so impressed with her eye for color! She was a huge help and I love the color she chose. She also helped me choose colors for my kitchen and living room. The colors she suggested were spot on and made a huge difference in my home. I also asked for some suggestions to update my living room. She gave me some great ideas and now my home feels fresh and current. Ashton is very professional and so sweet! She is a pleasure to work with!”- Ellen Coia, client, Greenville, SC (2020)
“Ashton has a great eye for color and design....and the kindest personality! She helped me make a few changes around my home to give it a more updated look. These included remodeling a bathroom, changing paint color and fabrics on furniture, light fixtures, bedding, and accessories. I appreciate that Ashton is cost conscious; always offering options at lower prices. She is always willing to meet in your home to get a sense of your style but then communicates her suggestions and options by email, which I found to be easy and convenient. Ashton is a pleasure to work with!” -Diane Baliker, client, Greenville, SC (2019)

I highly recommend her!” -Margot Bartell, client, Greenville, SC (2019)

"Ashton is one of Greenville’s top most talented designers! I recently built a home and she helped me throughout the entire process- fromt he architectural design phase until closing. I absolutely love my new home, and I attribute my joy to Ashton’s keen eye and knowledge of space and design, functionality, style and color, and her unending patience! In addition, she is such a pleasure to be around with her warming personality, charisma, clam demeanor, and professionalism. She is easily accessible- promptly returning phone calls, emails, and texts, and she accomodates her clients’ schedules for meetings. For many people (like me), new home construction can be a daunting experience. Ashton eased the process tremendously with her organization skills by sending me reminders well in advance of deadlines and follow up reminders throughout. I didn’t just find my dream designer in Ashton. I found a new cherished friend also. Thank you Ashton!! -Cathy Cannon, client, Greenville, SC (2018)
"Ashton was such a help! She took all my crazy mismatched ideas and helped us create a house that is BEAUTIFUL! I am so woeful at design- the idea of picking out the details of the dream house we were building was daunting, but Ashton was our saving grace, helping create real style. She was always a text or email away when we had questions. I am keeping her number on speed dial as we move in and finish the decorating process." -Cassie Thompson, client, Greenville, SC (2018)

"My husband and I recently built a new house. Our builder introduced us to Ashton Hanjtis. She was there for us throughout the building process. She was a tremendous help to us. She’s so organized and has an eye for details. She understood the look we were going for and helped us accomplish that look. Some of her suggestions we were not sure about at the time, such as reclaimed wood mantels throughout, but the finished look is beautiful. We would definitely recommend her for your interior design needs. A joy to work with." -Sherri Quattlebaum, client, Greenville, SC (2016)
"I am so pleased to be able to recommend Ashton as a talented design professional who was a delight to work with on our new house. Her background in architecture is a wonderful complement to her ability to listen and translate our vision into a reality. My husband and I have a design background so had some specific ideas and Ashton helped us to make decisions early in the process that allowed us to stay in front of the builder and avoid those panic choices that can sometimes occur while custom building a home. I know thebuilder appreciated working with Ashton as well and we all made a very good team." -Patrea St. John, client, Greenville, SC (2016)

She worked well with me, my people, and our clients."- Jason Bergeron, owner of Bergeron Custom Homes, Greenville, SC (2015)

"Ashton was the perfect Interior Designer! She understood my dream for a beautiful home, and helped me make it into a reality. Shortly after beginning to work with Ashton, it became clear that she had an incredible passion for design and intuitive understanding of my needs. Drawing on her architectural background, raw talent, and impeccable taste, Ashton designed every single space in our house beautifully! Ashton is a consummate professional with an uncanny sense of style; she is gifted with an innate ability to deliver the "wow factor" that consistently exceeded my expectations. Throughout our time together, Ashton was committed to providing the highest design creations even for a somewhat high maintenance and picky client :). I highly recommend her to anyone! "- Kristin Sridhar, client, Greenville, SC (2015)
"(Ashton) was the best architectural designer we knew to help us with the plans for our major renovation. We are taking 4 rooms and turning them into one kitchen, great room and dining area. Ashton met with us on-site on 2 seperate occasions, and helped us bring our vision to life! She listened, took copious notes, and made suggested changes. We cannot wait to bring our project, especially knowing what excellent plans we have for out contractor to follow thanks to Ashton. I would not hesitate to use her services again!" -Laura Clark, client, Greenville, SC (2015)
Ashton provided a complimentary consultation to us, which was very helpful, so that we could make sure our personalities and visions were aligned (which they were!). (She) provided us feedback on timeline and scope to set our expectations. She took time to get to know is and our tastes, and provided selections accordingly. It took a great deal of pressure off of us to have some direction, but also flexibility with selections. She made sure (furnishing) sizes were suitable for our spaces and that color schemes were coordinated while not being too "matchy". She was able to incorporate both feminine and masculine touches so that my husband and I were both happy, and also gave us inspiration for some statement pieces. She was able to balance our tastes with our budget, and we feel that she has been of great value to our ongoing design and furnishing process." -Sara Shamblin, client, Greenville, SC (2015)
"I would definitely recommend Ashton! She helped us with a renovation of two bathrooms, an office, and paint colors throughout the house. All of this was done with us 800 miles away, so we trusted her with a ton. She proved to be an excellent communicator, and make great selections. She also worked well with our contractor. She learned our desires quickly and made suggestions that fit our style very well. I would definitely use her again!! A++++." -Danielle Adams, client, Greenville, SC (2015)
"We had a wonderful experience working with Ashton. She helped blend my husband's mid-century taste with some more traditional and feminine decor in our early-century Tudor. Her insight into what would work in the space, and keeping my budget and two young boys in mind was exactly the guidance we needed. She was also quite patient with me as we worked though the rooms in the house. Now we are enjoying our space immensely thanks to Ashton!"- Emily Griffin, client, Greenville, SC (2015)
"The first time we met, I could tell Ashton shared my passion for old homes and architecture, and would be a great fit for my project. She was able to take the behind-the-scenes, style-advisory approach I wanted, and was able to give me great advice. We communicated very easily over the phone, through email, and using Pinterest for inspiration. It will still be a few months before I am able to see my final result, but I know it will be fantastic!"- Katie Lovvorn, client, Bradley, SC (2015)
