I can highly recommend Betsy Edwards with Betsy Edwards Design out of Hendersonville. I am working with her currently on my new home. I have worked with many designers and Betsy is only in our area for a few years due to some family commitments, but has worked all over the world and been based in Santa Barbara and Atlanta. She has done New York apartments, worked in Nice, France- her resume is very impressive. She has the creativity and vision, but what she also has is incredible professional organizational skills and outstanding follow-up and communication skills. That second piece is what I sometimes have found lacking in designers I have worked with.

We bought a house and moved to Laurel Park, NC in 2019. Our new house had not been updated for 25 years and was in desperate need of a remodel. We had a general idea and direction for our design; however we needed an independent design perspective, technical advice and experience for our project. The Design Gallery team provided all this and more. They listened to our ideas, suggested alternate concepts and we worked together to develop a beautiful design that we could not have envisioned on our own. We interviewed and ultimately selected a general contractor recommended by the design team. We could not have asked for a better advocate to have on our side during the whole house construction project. The Design Gallery team personally reviewed the progress onsite at key milestones to ensure our vision stayed on track. We are now living in our newly remodeled home and couldn’t be happier. Thank you Dawn and Betsy; your team provided honest advice and you always looked after our best interest. We consider you good friends

When I bought a bigger house that needed updating, I sought out help. Thank God I did….I was in over my head. Dawn went above and beyond to help me pull it all together. She listened, understands my quirky taste and helped me balance it with comfort and elegance. This was no small job, walls were removed and rooms were added………Dawn and Betsy were able to design and draw the plans so that I could move forward with confidence. Dawn is accessible, she responds to calls, texts and emails quickly. What can I say? Sometimes you just get lucky……I did!

I first had the pleasure and privilege of meeting and working with Betsy Edwards while working on the development and construction of a luxury ocean-front condominium project in the Town of Gulf Stream / Delray Beach, Florida. While there were numerous interior designers from throughout the United States working with their clients on this boutique condominium project, Betsy quickly and easily set herself apart as my personal favorite, if not the best.
Her impeccable design sense, as well as her unique sense of style and space, created stand-out residences that I can easily recall at the blink of an eye. Her elegant charm and demeanor, her commitment to her clients, and her ability to work and relate to everyone involved in the process so that each person from the clients to the carpenters to the cleaners all shared in a sense of pride in providing and being part of something better. The numerous hours that I have spent with her arguing, negotiating, laughing and sometimes pleading with her have left an indelible mark upon my own personal and professional growth and have helped to, in point of fact, make me better.

Before we began, Betsy took the time to learn about us. She quickly found out that we came at things from different directions. Through her listening and relationship building skills she was able to help us get to a shared vision. Translating our various likes and dislikes into a home that we love and that truly reflects who we are. Betsy brought both her creativity and problem solving skills to our project. One of our biggest concerns was that there was no dining room in our home. She quickly came up with a creative solution that is now one of our favorite rooms. We highly recommend Betsy Edwards Design to be a valued member of your project!
