Testimonials

Louise has the unique ability, through creative design and color, to transform a space from ordinary to outstanding!  Her talent to create individual personalities in each room, but yet, have all of the spaces “flow together” with color being the common denominator, is remarkable.  Her color schemes bring rooms to life! 

This is the second home we have completely renovated and decorated in the past three years.  Unfortunately we found Louise during the second remodel and not the first.  We all know how temperamental designers can be.  Not Louise.  Besides creative color creations, her strength lies in her ability to listen to her clients.  She can either create the vision and direction, or help clients along the path to creation, depending on their needs and level of involvement.

She provided us daily project updates and weekly status recaps.  The project came in on time, and under budget. 

Louise has unlimited creativity and resources for any project.  Louise will be the interior design consultant and specialist on all future projects, both personal and investment. 

[Newway USA is Louise Newsome's office design service.]

Recently, our agency underwent a significant expansion that doubled the size of our offices. As the agency president, I had three objectives for the project. First, I needed to ensure that there would be minimal disruption to our business. Second, I wanted to work with a single company as opposed to multiple vendors (e.g., designers, contractors, tech companies). Third, I needed a partner that would recommend plans appropriate to our needs and budget.

Newway USA exceeded expectations on all counts. Their design fully transformed the space, inspiring and motivating our employees. The reaction from clients has been fantastic, too. Newway USA leveraged existing furniture and equipment whenever possible, resulting in an efficient use of our operations budget, and we experienced no work interruptions. Simply put, their work was outstanding.

We are extremely proud of our new space and thank the principals and their team of professionals on such a fantastic job. We will use Newway USA again in the future and I recommend this team to other companies without reservation.

Ms. Newsome has done several jobs for us. We have used her as a color consultant, interior designer, and specialty finish painter.

She came to us initially as a color consultant, but actually has turned out to be invaluable for solving all kinds of interior design challenges in our house. She is extremely objective and honest, and has always told us when she shouldn't do work as well as suggest things she could do. For instance, we started using her when we were finishing our living room and trying to get the walls right to look good with a particular Persian rug. When the navy blue (bolder than I would have ever had the courage to choose on my own) paint which was to be the base for one of her special finishes was up, Louise was the one who looked at the room, with the rug, and told us she shouldn't do more there because the bold blue was already perfect on its own. Ultimately, the special finish occurred in an adjacent music room, where she hand painted and applied a beautiful wall paper that is one-of-a-kind and which she fine tuned until it was just what I wanted.

Louise is able to see the beauty in all colors in the spectrum. Like everyone, she has her own color preferences, but doesn't impose them on her customers. Instead, she really finds out what colors you like, and then within those families helps you find the exact hues to make the room truly lovely. She painted a very subtle glazed finish in our powder room and then even found us an antique light fixture a few weeks later that was perfect.

Color selections aren't limited to paint. When redoing our kitchen, Louise went with me to granite yards - we looked at miles of stone together and I found her input essential. I am completely delighted with what we chose and feel that Louise's input kept me from making a big mistake (granite being much harder to change your mind about than wall color).

Louise assisted me in all steps of my building project, from choosing tile, granite, paint colors, to lighting and plumbing fixtures for both the interior and exterior of the house.

With her choices and understanding of the new house market she was able to direct me efficiently and professionally, to produce a home that excelled and was in perfect keeping with its style and the neighborhood.

Without Louise I would not have been able to pull together this project so efficiently.
When I take on my next project, Louise will be my only choice. Many many thanks!
