Studio IQL

Val and her team helped me with the renovation of my historic house (one of those in the photos). They designed an entirely new kitchen/dining room that responds to the history of the house but also feels crisp and contemporary. The addition of a fireplace was particularly complicated, but it looks as if it had always been there and also works perfectly. They also helped me navigate through upgrading or replacing all the mechanical systems, bathrooms, and even putting back in period-appropriate windows. In addition, Val and her team are 100% reliable and trust worthy (which is SO important) and they love to laugh, which made this long project a pleasure!

We hired Studio IQL to design our high end plumbing showroom, Flow Bath + Kitchen Design Studio. I met with a few designers and once meeting Val, I knew she really got me. I wanted to do something new and excited, and Val and her team worked hand in hand with my husband and I to make our dreams come true. Everything is just perfect and I have been told time and time again that I have one of the nicest showrooms not only in this country, but in the world. We loved working with this fabulous team and would recommend them to anyone for a residential or commercial space.

Studio IQL went above and beyond my expectations. They took a holistic approach to look at how we lived in our home and what we really needed. They even brought in and worked with an organizer to purge through 15 years of three kids and life. When the new space was finished everything had its place. Our house was an original 1940s masterpiece in desperate need of an update. Every inch of their custom work was thoughtful, impeccable and spotless. I love my home and everyone who visits loves it too. I never want to leave. I absolutely love my kitchen , home office, zen room, fireplaces, high ceilings, wall of glass looking onto a garden....

When we first met Val we told her that we had to have a Coca Cola red couch and a blue fireplace. We said if she can work with that you can work with us. The rest is history. We love our home and have received wonderful press and accolades over the years.

My husband and I live in LA and wanted a pied-à-terre in Philadelphia. Studio IQL expertly oversaw the creation of our dream home and I cant recommend the team strongly enough. What could have been a stressful and overwhelming gut renovation, especially long-distance, was completed with such professionalism, style, and skill it was actually a fun and creative experience.

I work in a converted church building that Studio IQL completely renovated and repurposed to 20 office suites. (they are also my neighbor in the building) This place is stunning. My clients are always blown away when they come to a meeting here. I have also had to pleasure of seeing several homes they have designed. If everything goes well with our new business my wife and I plan to hire them for our own dream home. Great landlords. Great people.
