“A HUGE thank you to Deri and Antonio from Tranquil Design Builders for truly listening to our needs and creating a safe, beautiful home for my mother to enjoy! My childhood home will continue to stand the test of time thanks to Deri Washington and her incredible team. She is truly a force to be reckoned with. Since establishing Tranquil Designs LLC in 2010 alongside her husband Alexander Washington their vision of creating beautiful, calming spaces filled with tranquil energy, has continued to soar-earning awards year after year on Houzz and other platforms. Tranquil Designs LLC. created the design concept and layout. Tranquil Design Builders took that concept and brought it to life. Then we had the privilege of using financing to purchase furniture and decor through her furniture company Tranquil Designs Home. After implementing their proven three-step approach, Tranquil Designs not only met our expectations—they completely exceeded them. From the very beginning, their process brought clarity, structure, and confidence to what could have easily been an overwhelming experience. Each phase was handled with intention and expertise. They took the time to truly understand our vision, lifestyle, and needs, ensuring that every decision aligned with both functionality and design. Their communication was consistent and professional, keeping us informed and at ease throughout the entire journey. What stood out most was their attention to detail and commitment to excellence. Nothing felt rushed or overlooked. Every element—from layout to finishes—was thoughtfully curated, resulting in a space that feels both elevated and personal. The end result speaks for itself. Not only did they deliver a beautifully designed space, but they also created an experience rooted in trust, creativity, and precision. Working with Deri and her team was more than a service—it was a partnership that truly brought our vision to life. Go follow her on all of her platforms!! You won’t be disappointed!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“We enjoyed working with you on our remodeling project and appreciate the good service you provided. We initially contacted you after reviewing several online forums on local architects. We were impressed on our initial meeting how you came up with several potential low cost options to achieve our design goals. That helped us have confidence that you would be a good person to partner with when we decided to move forward with a much more ambitious and expensive version of the project. You came up with several ideas to significantly improve functionality as well as aesthetics, resulting in a better design than we could have come up with if we relied on our own ideas. You also frequently came up with ideas to reduce costs, which we appreciated even as the scope of the project increased. We are also glad that you were patient as we took time to decide on options as the design evolved. We are excited about the changes we will be making to our home.”

“We engaged Sophie because, during our interview with her, she assured us that “no one would look after you as well as I will.” There was something very reassuring about the confidence with which she delivered that message……and she came through in spades! Our renovation spanned almost 5 months, involved a wholesale retrofit of the entire interior including the removal of walls, relocation of a fireplace, changing the direction of stairs, updating of all bathrooms, the kitchen and all appliances….. and much, much more. Aside from being a wonderful architect with an abundance of creative skills, Sophie is also a very practical problem solver who was always accessible…especially during those crucial construction crisis moments….and we had a few! Fortunately, we had Sophie in our corner and the project stayed on schedule and on budget…and we slept very well because of her. On a scale of 1 to 10…..Sophie is a 20!”
