Services
Interior Transformations is a full service design company. We provide a wide range of services from conception through implementation. We realize that many clients are concerned and overwhelmed when they even think about renovations, remodels, or new construction processes and selections. Our goal is to assuage your concerns by offering over 10 years of knowledge and experience to guide you throughout the process.
It was our joy to enliven the living/entertaining spaces of these clients by first rearranging their existing furnishings. Our goal was to carve out cozy conversation spaces and optimize mixed use within the large rooms. We wanted to ensure that our environments brought families, friends, and guests together.
This home was initially being remodeled to include an elevator for a disabled son but a catastrophe occurred. This created the need for all new construction and finish materials. Flooring, lighting, cabinetry, wall materials, window treatments, and tile, all the interior finishes were chosen for the entire house.
Constructed with the blood and sweat of the homeowners, this timber frame had great architecture but it lacked polish and punch. Its soaring ceilings along with its post and beam construction made quite a statement. Our role was to balance the grandeur of the architecture with the interior furnishings and finishes.
Working in a stressful career, this homeowner wanted symmetry, great technology, and unique high quality solutions. Even though each and every project is custom, we had to raise the level to find or create just the right design elements. Beginning with a floor plan, we addressed the narrow areas, storage limitations, and numerous high traffic areas.

I have admired Debbie's work for a few years now and I finally had the chance to work with her. We have a family room with multiple entryways and doors and an oddly placed fireplace. The room needs a facelift and I called on Debbie to help me figure out how to arrange furniture and decor to make it more comfortable and cozy for watching movies as a family. My husband and I had been trying to figure this out for the 3 years we've owned this house and nothing seemed to work. Debbie made a point of walking through the whole house and suggested we use a different room, the living room, as the family

If you are looking for an interior designer who carefully listens to your wants and desires, and has a keen talent, turn to Debbie McHale. She is a rare gem who humbly uses her innate gifts in interior design to bring your dream to life. She is skilled in all aspects of managing the design project from conception and planning to the smallest of details. Couples often have different design tastes and she is excellent at finding cohesiveness to bring styles together. My husband and I hired her to design our living room in our new house and the layout was challenging. She created two spaces in one

Debbie excels at adjusting to each individual client. She has worked on two separate projects for us over the last few years. On the first, I needed her to take the lead to select, coordinate, and oversee the entire effort. In the second project, I just needed some ideas and to be a sounding board. But on both projects, she was ever so patient as I am a slow ponderer before making some decisions. I would seek to use Debbie for any future projects.
