“can’t wait to work with her again on future projects!”

Evelyn is a top tier interior designer. Extremely professional, timely, responsive, and has great taste. She has true talent and can transform any space based on your personal style and vision. Multiple members of my family and friends have used her services and have had great experiences working with her. I can’t recommend her enough and can’t wait to work with her again on future projects!

-Christina S.

I’ve worked with Evelyn for almost 10 years. She is the best I’ve ever worked with. Her understanding of colors is unmatched. She has redone almost every room in our house. Her latest project was my office. The use of velvet wall coverings was brilliant and splash of color with the orange office chairs really set this room apart. Work from home was so much better because of her work 😉. I recommend her to everyone and will continue to use her services for every project. 100 out of 100.

“Her understanding of colors is unmatched.”

“Her fresh take on stylish, layered, and forward thinking design create transformations beyond expectations.”

This is our fourth large scale project with the remarkably talented Evelyn Benatar of New York Interior Design. Evelyn's gift for planning places, selecting beautiful color pallets, sourcing luxurious textiles and finishes along with an unsurpassed attention to every single detail are just a few highlights of why we keep going back to NYID. Evelyn is a wonderful listener and takes time to understand the personal needs for any given space. Her fresh take on stylish, layered, and forward thinking design create transformations beyond expectations. Evelyn is an absolute joy to work and exceptional at her craft.

I love working with Evelyn Benatar! She turned my old dated entry way and living room into a beautiful, modern yet timeless, livable space that I love to relax in. We also worked with her several years ago redoing and expanding our kitchen. Evelyn was able to help my husband and I compromise so that we were both happy. She is very efficient with her time and we would get a lot done during our appointments. I also appreciated when she would advise me when I had doubts or second thoughts on choices that I was making. Like others have said, she has amazing taste and knows how to find beautiful, high quality furniture, lighting and accessories.

“Wish I had more rooms, so I could continue to work with her!”

Initially, Evelyn Benatar took the time to refine my tastes by educating me about the style to which I was drawn. We poured over photos, visited several showrooms and shops and discussed the look I wanted at length. Armed with this knowledge and guided by Evelyn's exquisite tase, I was able to make elegant selections in every category: color, architectural details, lighting, artwork, furniture. The outcome is timeless, exquisite and very livable. Evelyn's way of working with clients and her flawless taste made the experience fantastic. Wish I had more rooms, so I could continue to work with her! I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a gracious home.

-Lois S.

I hired Evelyn to update my traditional home to a more contemporary, chic and eclectic living space. I explained to Evelyn that I was willing to change the colors of my walls, and drapes but wanted to keep some of my furniture.

After talking for about an hour, Evelyn got a intuitive sense of who I am and what colors I love. She is a good listener and gently directed me to a new color palette for my home her keen sense of color, balance and style combined with my eclectic taste.

Evelyn suggested colors to me that I was unsure of at first, but when I sampled them on the wall, the colors said YES to me. She really does know her color. Not only that, but she guided me to choose a focal point in each room- by either choosing a beloved fabric, paining, color or texture and to start from that point. She knew I wanted to be involved in my transition, so honored that by letting me be part of it.

What I truly enjoyed about working with Evelyn is that she is charming and has a perfectionist work ethic with impeccable taste. She will give you more than what you asked for and the results will be more than what you expected.

“Whether your taste is traditional, modern or transitional she is able to put together the most beautiful spaces.”

“We have worked with Evelyn Benatar on several projects including the interior design on two new construction homes.  Our recent project was to transform a 2,500 square foot unfinished basement into a beautiful lower level.  Evelyn is the ultimate professional.  She is very proactive, very responsive and always available to assist her clients.  Her ability to put together colors and fabrics is unmatched.  Her taste is equally exquisite.  More importantly she is able to work within all styles.  Whether your taste is traditional, modern or transitional she is able to put together the most beautiful spaces.  We have the highest regard for Evelyn and her work and we highly recommend her without any reservations.”

I recently worked with Evelyn Benatar, who is based in Great Neck, NY. She not only came up with great design concepts for my downtown penthouse--she choose unique and stunning fixtures, fantastic paint colors and combined patterns and textures in a non cliche way. She also came up with great ideas to solve challenging space issues and met hard deadlines. Her attention to both technical and aesthetic detail is matched only by her delightful personality. She transformed my stuffy apartment in one month’s time into one with a modern glam sensibility that was livable and comfortable for my husband and young children.

“She works with us patiently and most importantly within our budget.”

Evelyn helped us redecorate our living room and is now working on our bedrooms. We have known her for close to 2 years now. She works with us patiently and most importantly within our budget. She makes sure she shows us the stuff that are the best in our price range and not waste our time showing items that are beyond our means.  We have received only compliments for our living room and  the other rooms that she decorated for us. We definitely recommend her with no hesitation.

- Shan R.

We found Evelyn through her website, which showed exactly our taste in contemporary design. When she first came to our house, Evelyn was full of good suggestions immediately. We hired her and had a wonderful experience. She transformed our family room, which previously had been somewhere between plain and shabby, into a truly beautiful space. We enjoyed shopping with her and found her delightful to work with. We’ve now hired her again to help us remodel our bathrooms.

“She is truly top-notch!”

Sometimes things are meat to be.  Evelyn Benatar walked into my life in 2008 from a recommendation. Once can say I literally put my “home” into her hands.  From the initial phases of facelifting our kitchen/great room area to a loft-like entertaining masterpiece, uniquely styled bedrooms, game room/family den and magnificent powder room. Evelyn has a style like no other.   Her latest project in our home, entailed creating an elegant dining for hosting big holidays for friends and family.  On deck is my work-office which will maintain a funky yet professional vibe.  We could not love working with Evelyn more.  She is truly top-notch!

I had fallen in love with one of my friend’s gorgeous living rooms designed by Evelyn and was excited to have the opportunity to work with her on our new home. We purchased a 1920s home with long and narrow rooms. Not only does Evelyn have a beautiful aesthetic, she is wonderful with space planning and resolving challenging issues. She is also extremely efficient. I highly recommend Evelyn and her team.

Evelyn has been hired to completely decorate our 3 bedroom condo in NYC.  I cannot say enough about her esthetic, her detail to each and everything and her kind and patient demeanor.  I will use her services over again and recommend Evelyn to all of my friends and family.

“It is my favorite room in the house… She is now working on a major renovation at my house!  I can’t wait to see the results!”

I hired Evelyn about 8 years ago, through a recommendation, to decorate my new living room.  My house is traditional, but I wanted to go transitional in the new room.  She helped me achieve this so amazingly. It is my favorite room in the house.  It is so warm and inviting, my guests always feel the same way.  We worked so well together.  Evelyn worked within my budget. She understood my style & we chose things quickly.  Evelyn has great taste and is a pleasure to work with.  She is now working on a major renovation at my house!  I can’t wait to see the results!

Ten years ago I hired a big name in Manhattan design firm and was disappointed. This time around I went with Evelyn Benatar, who is based in Great Neck, NY.  She not only came up with great design concepts for my downtown penthouse - she choose unique and stunning fixtures, fantastic paint colors and combined patterns and textures in a non cliche way. She also came up with great ideas to solve challenging space issues and met hard deadlines. Her attention to both technical and aesthetic detail is matched only by her delightful personality.

“Evelyn made the whole process easy and fun!”

I hesitated about renovating my Bedroom because its difficult for me to get around. Evelyn made the whole process easy and fun! She brought everything to me, gave me choices as well as her suggestions. I actually loved the whole process because I felt she was with me all the way! I LOVE my new Bedroom because Evelyn was able to determine exactly the feeling I was looking for!

We found Evelyn through NYDC and it was the best thing we ever did. She has been incredible to work with and has transformed our 2 bd apt into a wonderful luxurious home. She has impeccable taste/style and her knowledge of the industry is tremendous. My husband and I have different tastes (he is more traditional , I am more contemporary) but she was able to come up with solutions that were appealing to both of us and it worked !  We get so many compliments on our home all the time. Throughout the whole process she was professional , and trustworthy. She listened to what we  wanted and executed accordingly while working within our budget. More importantly , she is such a sweet and wonderful person to be around, she even bought us a gift when we had our baby. I highly recommend her to everyone I know and I look forward to working with her on all our future projects.
