    I have now had the pleasure of working with Erin on three interior design projects for my home. Erin not only has a keen sense of style, she also has the ability to read my preferences and transform them into unbelievably beautiful outcomes. Our most recent project has been the design for three new bedrooms and each one is spectacular! We are now transitioning into the great room and library/dining room which I know will be equally stunning. Erin's knowledge, professionalism and positive demeanor are second to none. She is a delight to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants a wonderful design experience.

    I would highly recommend using The Avenue for all of your interior design needs. Erin Gilmer helped me on multiple projects ranging from space planning to interior selections and they were an absolute delight to work with. They were never pushy and made me feel like I still had my personal touch with the end product in my home. 5 stars!

    My husband and I adored working with Brandy Martin on the renovation of our family home. She helped us update the outdated and coordinate the construction of a 2 story addition.
