Laura and her team are absolutely amazing: thoughtful, fun to work with, and have a keen ability to translate a loose vision into a coherent, coordinated environment. The best thing about working with them is they opened up design options that we hadn't even considered for our home remodel.
We approached them late in our project, when we were struggling to make choices on "hard finishes" (trim, color scheme, tile selection). While our architect had been somewhat helpful in these areas, we quickly realized we needed dedicated help. Having design experts was well worth the investment

I love thinking about home design, so I naturally thought I could furnish our new home on my own. I spent over a year mulling over the way I wanted our home to look and feel like (with little progress), and in that year I always found myself returning to LMB's website for inspiration. What drew me in was not only the beauty of her designs, but the warmth. There are so many layers - she can make a room look classy and edgy, yet feel cozy and warm at the same time. I didn't want comfort to be sacrificed for style. I want my home to be both eye-catching and inviting. Laura manages both better

Joey and Laura of LMB Interiors have been fantastic to work with from start to finish on our kitchen remodel. They went above and beyond to help get our project off the ground. Joey and Laura listened closely to our initial ideas and inspirations, and then came up with an innovative design that delivered everything we wanted (but could not have come up with ourselves). They worked well with our contractor, kept tabs on the progress, and were always available to answer questions or visit our home. On top of that, Joey and Laura made the project fun and were a pleasure to work with!

I love working with Laura and her amazing team. They've helped us with both our current and last houses, and we've been delighted with the results. I went from feeling overwhelmed trying to figure out my home decor on my own, to being excited and thoroughly enjoying the process once I had Laura helping me. She and her team are fun, intuitive, enthusiastic, organized, talented, and great communicators.

Laura of LMB Interiors has not disappointed any of my clients I have sent her way. Her easy, open manner and her lovely, energetic staff have proven to be a winning combo. My clients have raved about LMB Interiors and the results were everything they hoped for.
I would not hesitate to hire such a talented, professional AND approachable firm for any interior design projects that need attention by a top Bay Area designer.

Laura and her team of designers have the gift of transforming a house into a home that connects the homeowner's vision with beautiful, modern and classic textures, fixtures and furnishings. Laura often says that she helps her clients come home to themselves. I love the value she places not just on the parts of the project, but also the transformation the client goes through when they create a home to nurture family, friends and community. I highly recommend her and her team to anyone who wants to tap into a larger vision of beauty and transformation and for anyone who wants a design and furnishings

I once tried to paint my daughter's bedroom. The color was wrong (so wrong that we decided not to finish).The furniture was fine but it lacked adequate lighting and any character. Laura's team came in and transformed the pink disaster to an adorable, well-lit haven that my daughter cherished and loved. Beautiful, simple, perfect.

Class act with such a wonderful energy to work with. Helped me pick the right items and made my girls bedrooms a magical place that they love to play, read, and sleep in! Laura is truly a talent and a blessed professional with a keen eye for details and color schemes. She reviewed and covered my expectations and made wonderful suggestions that fully satisfied my family as a customer! Laura and her staff made the process from start to finish easy to understand and follow. I HIGHLY recommend LMB Interiors to all my friends and clients! Thanks LMB Interiors for giving my home the feel and look

This review is a long time coming.... Laura and her team are exceptional at what they do!.
We recently moved from Los Angeles to Danville and needed a major kitchen/dining/ living room remodel done in a VERY short amount of time. Laura and her team managed the project from the conceptual development, the construction management and the execution of the design. The room(s) turned out incredible. She brought back the 'Ranch' in a house that was stripped of its calling... It's the only room in the house I like to hang out in! I enjoyed working with Laura and her architect Quinn

Laura is a wonderfully talented designer. I have worked with her on everything from choosing patio furniture to designing my young daughter's room to selecting exterior paint colors. She designed a cohesive look for our family's pool house, coordinating the furniture, light fixtures, bath and kitchen materials, paint, fabrics, and accessories. The result is a beautiful and stylish but comfortable space where my family feels at home. Laura is a great listener. From our first meeting I knew she wanted my family to truly love the space we were designing. Laura is also flexible with her design

I have been in the real estate industry for 12 years, so I am fortunate to see so many beautiful homes. I am often asked by my clients who I recommend for interior design work, and I would never hesitate to recommend Laura. She is methodical, artistic and an incredible listener. She works very hard to understand her clients needs and expectations, and always delivers.
She is also heavily involved in giving back to her community.

Laura and her team transformed my master suite from a disorganized , ill designed space into a true retreat.
We did the design work about 1 year ago and every time I walk into my new bedroom I am reminded how great it looks and feels. She took into careful consideration how we use the space , our budget , and our taste.
She was very available , reasonable and easy to work with. I recommend Lmb interiors without reserve!

I've worked with Laura professionally more than a dozen times. Every client we've referred to her adores her. She is incredibly creative and really hears what her clients are saying and what they want. Her designs are warm & sophisticated but completely livable. Bonus is that she's also organized & detailed and super fun to be around!

I was having dinner at Wood Tavern (6317 College Ave Oakland) and while the food was good the ambience was incredible. The design of the building was beautiful, sexy, inviting, smart. So with a little investigation I discovered that Laura Martin Bovard had done the design. Amazing. She will be the one I call to design my next project!

I have worked in the Construction Industry for the past two decades, I have had the opportunity to work closely with many, many designers. Some designers stick to certain formulas, they use the same approach regardless of their clients' personality, and the result is often okay, but ultimately cookie-cutter and pretty, but blah...
That is so NOT the case with Laura Martin Bovard. She is interested in her clients' design vision coming through, an intimate process where she listens, then translates her clients' ideas into individual realities: classy and elegant, warm and spirited

Watching the way Laura and Company work on a project is nothing short of inspiring! The thought she puts into each project is apparent in the results. It's as if Laura was born with the ability to transform.
I have worked with her for just about a year. She is articulate, thoughtful and patient. She is a skilled listener who takes the time to acknowledge people and the result is a reflection of the clients desire mixed with Laura's immaculate taste.

I've known Laura Martin Bovard for a year and seen the results of her attentive and artful eye reflected in exquisite, but comfortable interiors that you want to LIVE in.
She listens with great focus and helps you articulate what it is that makes your home feel like the unique person you are. She will work with you to create a place that feels like a true refuge for you, your family and whoever you share your home with.
I can't recommend her services highly enough, whether you have a large remodel or a small space that needs some new life.
