We had 12 friends over a couple of nights ago to celebrate a friend‘s birthday and everyone loved my new space. Thanks again Janet. It is also nice to find myself hanging in my living room for the first time ever.

We have teamed up with the URD girls and it’s been an incredible experience! Meagan and Kristin have a true passion for design and décor. Staging our newly built spec homes created the best possible first impression appealing to a wide audience. The Kelly Homes Team highly recommends them for any interior design-related service.

I have loved working with Kristin & Meagan from Upstate Roots Design! My employer, Doud Apartment Homes, hired URD for the commercial design of our new Clubhouse. The space is still in its early design stages, but Kristin and Meagan have helped us to create such a clear vision of what we are going for with this massive space! Both Kristin & Meagan took the time to really listen to all of our ideas and they used their expertise to bring options to life via gorgeous vision boards and 3D renderings. These ladies really have such a beautiful eye for design and have been so professional and responsive every step of the way!
Additionally, we used URD to source and stage the furniture for our model apartment. You should see the positive reactions we get from our potential renters!! Overall, we are so pleased with how things are turning out and we have loved the entire process working with Upstate Roots!

I was overwhelmed by picking paint colors for my new home, and Lisa totally saved the day. She listened to what colors I am drawn to, and she chose the perfect palette that brightened our space and was in tune with our historic home. If you’re feeling stuck and want an expert perspective, definitely reach out. It is worth the investment!
Melisande P. - Homeowner
Working with Lisa was one of the best decisions I made during my living room renovation. She is incredibly professional, kind, knowledgeable, and so easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. Choosing paint colors can feel overwhelming, but Lisa made it simple and enjoyable. She took the time to understand my space, style, and goals, and her recommendations were absolutely perfect.
The color consultation was worth every penny and gave me so much confidence in my decisions. I truly couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Beyond her expertise, Lisa is just a genuinely lovely person to work with. I would wholeheartedly recommend her color consultation services to anyone looking for guidance with paint colors or home design. You won’t regret it!

The Upstate Roots Design team is fantastic. This is our second time using them and I can promise you they are the best around. They were originally referred to us by our realtor and from the first conversation i had with them i knew it was going to turn out amazing but didnt realize just how amazing.The first time we used them they took a very plain Jane split level farmhouse out in Albion look absolutely extravagant. It was a family members house who had passed away with a lot of memories in that house for my wife especially, the way it turned out made selling it much easier to bear for a very emotional time in our lives. The house had a whole new life to it incorporating simple touches everywhere that just brought it to a whole different level. Our second time using them when we were getting ready to sell our own house, I had no doubt about who I was going to call to get our house ready. They yet again exceeded any of my wildest expectations. Our house had a very unique layout that even us as the owners had trouble figuring out how to furnish the place after 5 years. They came in and 8 hours later they totally changed the house and brought what we thought was impossible to life. Make the house functional, extravagant, but yet not overbearing or packed full of furniture to make it seems like what it's not. Very minimalistic furniture and simple touches everywhere but yet making it seem so full and not minimalistic at all. My wife and I are very thankful for the team at Upsate Roots Design. We will recommend them every single chance we get. They are easy to communicate with, easy fast scheduling, thorough, very reasonably priced, and downright just a great group of people. Thank you again for everything. If we ever move again or need your services for anything in the future they will be our one and only call.

I am just putting my home on the Market, and Kristin and Meagan transitioned it from a nice empty home into a home of beauty where potential buyers could envision making this their home, which is hard to do with an empty house. They set up a timeline, stayed on schedule, and did a wonderful job!
Kathy L. - Homeowner
Upstate Roots Design did a beautiful job furnishing and decorating our home! We received so many compliments and it looked fantastic. I would highly recommend them!
Scott L. - Homeowner
We hired URD based on a recommendation from our realtor. We are glad we did. As I was informed, the staging work by URD received some nice compliments during viewing. And we accepted an offer that made the staging cost well worth it. The team at URD--Meagan, Kristin, Lyndsey--was a pleasure to work with. They were responsive, professional, and even worked around my reluctance to use plaster nails for hanging wall art. The house was de-staged cleanly. All in all, very satisfied with URD's service.
Katie - Homeowner
Where to begin? Upstate Roots Design blew us away with their professionalism, fantastic communication throughout the process of staging our home and, when finished, the amazing final product. In a million years we could never have put together a design like they created for our home. They are super-talented, have great furniture and decor and they made our home look like a work of art. If you're thinking of hiring them - do it. You won't believe what they create. Big fans over here & best decision we've made!
Valerie C. - Homeowner
I wasn’t sure about staging my house before listing… But oh boy am I glad I did it! Upstate Roots did an AMAZING job, working WITH us, our preferences and schedule. They made our house look so gorgeous, I want to buy it again!! Highly recommended !! Special mention to Meagan B ! Thank you for everything!

The Upstate Roots Design Team wildly exceeded my expectations. My project involved turning an outdated 7,000 square foot house into a desirable Short Term Rental Vacation home. I would highly recommend the URD team for any interior design project. Meagan and Kristin are amazing to work with as my project is case in point for their talent of turning wishful vision into reality.

We’ve worked with Upstate Roots Design on several luxury homes in Sarasota, and they’ve been incredible to work with. Their designs are beautiful, thoughtful, and always bring our vision to life.
They’re creative, responsive, and genuinely care about delivering a great result. The quality of their work and attention to detail have made them a valuable part of our team.
We currently have more than seven active projects underway and will continue using Upstate Roots Design for all of them. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a talented and dependable design firm.

The ladies at Upstate Roots did an amazing job with my AirBnB. Meagan and Kristin used their passion for interior design and completely transformed the place into a modern, chic getaway while still preserving the integrity of a house built in the 1920s. They took care of everything from strategy, inventory, shopping and even provided some local recommendations to help us build our guestbook for tenants. Cannot speak highly enough about this dynamic duo. Will definitely be using them again in my next project!

Thank you Meagan and Kristin for taking my new house and making it into my dream home. I was struggling to find the vision for my first floor and with their design knowledge they were able to make it all come together. They came to my house, measured, took pictures and got to know my style. They put together a mood board and full description of a few choices for each area. From there I went shopping and put their vision together. I'm beyond impressed with their professionalism and knowledge. I highly recommend Upstate Roots Design for all your interior needs.

Where do I begin? My fiancé and I recently bought a house that we desperately needed help decorating. I stumbled upon URD and reached out about their “refresh” package as we felt it was exactly what we needed - direction and ideas. I cannot say enough about how amazing Meagan and Kristin are to work with! They ended up “refreshing” three of our rooms - the main living room, kitchen, and second living room. They took into consideration our initial ideas/wants and provided mood boards that exceeded our expectations beyond belief! From paint colors to furniture ideas to accessories and everything in between - they were extremely thorough. I cannot recommend this service more! I’ve been telling everyone I know about this package and how much I love what they provided us!! It’s worth every penny!!
