FR Review:
Kim Amann and her team at Casa Linda have won the hearts and souls of clients by delivering an excellent product, from top-to-bottom, with no fuss. From the massive gut renovation of the Judy Garland estate in Scarsdale to a modest kitchen in Bronxville to the complete interior outfitting of a large new home in Greenwich, the firm is lauded for its handsome, practical rooms and effective project management skills. Recent other clients include the Winged Foot Golf Club, the Larchmont Shore Club and the Elm Street Oyster House restaurant in Greenwich.
Amann started Casa Linda in 1999, after gaining a degree from NYSID, and several years at a home renovation collaborative in Philly and at Bloomingdale's Shop at Home. Her energy is contagious, with Amann directing all the interior design work and also eliminating much of the need for either a separate contractor or architect. The staff of five is said to be highly capable and knowledgeable. Recently moving to their new location in Scarsdale, the showroom features several lines of custom cabinetry, lighting, tile, countertops and appliances for a one-stop shop.
Given the firm's multiple roles, clients report a very coordinated process and lower overall fees. There are small up-front design fees, Standard hourly design and shopping fees, and product is purchased at 25 percent of list retail. Clients are effusive in their praise of Casa Linda.
Representative Client Comments:
"Meeting Kim was the most fortunate thing that happened to us on this project. We went from disorder, confusion and fiscal rape to clarity and order." "I can not come up with words positive enough to describe Kim's contributions to our renovation." "Not only did Kim do her job well but she found and managed all the subs, who were also excellent." "Kim always managed to find a better way, and usually at a lower cost."
