“I’ve had the privilege of knowing Jenni Lauri, both personally and professionally, and that perspective makes me confident in saying she is exceptional in every sense. Professionally, her work is refined, thoughtful, and deeply intentional. She has an extraordinary ability to translate abstract ideas into clean, elevated design that feels both modern and timeless. Her attention to detail is impeccable, her aesthetic instincts are strong, and she brings structure, clarity, and strategy to every project she touches. She doesn’t just design for how something looks, she designs for how it works and how it feels. On a personal level, her integrity, reliability, and work ethic set her apart. She is deeply invested in her clients’ success, communicates clearly, meets deadlines, and consistently goes above and beyond. She approaches her work with humility, intelligence, and genuine care, which is rare and invaluable. If you’re looking for a design studio that combines elevated taste, strategic thinking, and an exceptional human behind the work, I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Working with her is not just a professional win, it’s a pleasure.”

“Elaine of Elaine Morrison Interiors designed and supervised our kitchen and outdoor patio remodel. We were impressed by Elaine’s genuine regard for our family’s lifestyle and personality. With an eye towards function, esthetics and entertaining; Elaine enthusiastically explained her vision of what a “Traditional Remodel” would look like. Elaine prepared scaled renderings of the proposed project as well as detailed timelines and cost projections. The contractors recommended by Elaine were professional, courteous, and talented craftsmen. Because of Elaine’s ever-present supervision, the project was seamless and the final outcome is eye-popping. Shopping with Elaine was truly an adventure. She took us to design centers and hardware stores. We visited stone fabricators and upholstery shops. We shopped for everything from delicate fabrics in Beverly Hills to stone slabs at granite yards in the San Fernando Valley. We saw every kind of stone, tile and backsplash imaginable. Wherever we went, everyone seemed to know and respect Elaine for her expertise and professionalism. We could clearly see why. The centerpiece of our remodel was the kitchen island. Elaine was able to reconfigure and expanded the island on the original footprint creating a huge amount of storage and a very large serving area. The cabinets designed by Elaine featured pull-out drawers and swing out shelves for easy access. Elaine’s cabinet maker used the highest quality hardware including pulls for all the drawers, doors, and for the wood paneled refrigerator. Elaine found a magnificent quartzite slab for the island and countertops. Next, the vent over stove was replaced by a very large and impressive stainless-steel hood. We decided on a Wolf oven, steam convection oven, countertop stove and a built-in microwave oven as well as a wine cooler. We also purchased the Sub-Zero side by side refrigerator and a Cove dishwasher. Elaine found fabulous lighting fixtures to accentuate the island and glass cabinets. Exquisite window treatments tied the family room and kitchen together. Elaine had the entertainment center in the family room updated and stained to coordinate with the kitchen. The existing travertine floors were stripped and resealed. Elaine recommended that we reupholster our existing customized furniture that were originally designed to fit the unusual geometry of the room. Elaine's imaginative vision transformed our simple barbecue into complete outdoor kitchen which featured a refrigerator, stainless-steel pull-out drawer and a sink. The Dekton countertop beautifully complimented the indoor kitchen. Elaine beautifully married design with function. Although she is high energy, Elaine has always been sensitive to our concerns, anxieties and expenses. Watching the project come to fruition has been tremendously exciting. We are grateful to Elaine for her patients, guidance and friendship.”
