FR Review:
While most clients hire Dujardin Design Associates for its evocative, high-quality, classic lines of yesteryear, many are also attracted to the firm's philosophic predilection for green, allergy-sensitive materials. Supporters say Dujardin is like a scientist, with an amazing knowledge of materials. Designs often feature strong, traditional, handsome millwork that juxtaposes comfortable, clean, neutral settings with a touch of country chic.

Dujardin began her firm in 1982, determined to meld tasteful design with environmentally-smart decision making. Most of her work is in Connecticut, Manhattan and Nantucket, where Dujardin has a home. Responsive to the client's interests, Dujardin leads the design decisions and the project managers implement. The firm also provides a turnkey service including linens, cookware, and houseplants.

Clients say that Dujardin is quite expensive, but well worth it if you are particular. The firm charges a flat design fee and standard retail, and also offers hourly environmental consulting. Dujardin is generally regarded by industry leaders as an expert in the world of green design; she is a board member of the Joslyn Castle Institute for Sustainable Communities and the Design Futures Council. Clients reap the benefits of Dujardin'sgreen efforts, but note that she can work in other colors as well. ASID.

Representative Client Comments:
"Everyone in the office is very nice and helpful." "Green design doesn't just mean environmentally-conscious materials. Trudy really thinks about how people live, not just what looks good." "Every piece of hardware and plumbing is an exact reproduction--no detail is too small for Trudy to have custom made." "We did not do the environmental thing with her and found her attention to detail to be excellent." "Trudy and Price Connors were very helpful from the beginning- they worked with our architects and provided helpful guidance on every decision." "Having Dujardin Design Associates on board before we started building was a godsend." "They are most aware of the environment and the importance of designing in harmony with it." "Not cheap, but no more expensive than anyone on her level." "Really really smart design." "Although almost everything was new, I immediately felt completely at home." "She is the first decorator that we will use again."
