Sabbe Interior Design - Nashville, Tennessee

Margaret Harris

Stephanie worked with us to design our home in Nashville from the very beginning of the process. She was a joy to work with (always entertaining!) and collaborated well with the architect and builder. She achieved what I thought was not possible - a kid-friendly, welcoming, beautiful home that actually looks like it has been around for decades. She continues to help me decorate in a way that honors our taste and our budget!

What a wonderful experience we had working with Stephanie and her team over the course of our lengthy renovation! When we bought our home in Nashville after having lived in Southern California for many years, it was important to us to find someone who could take a dark, traditional space and help transform it into a modern contemporary home that would be more reflective of our love of bright open spaces, and our desire for quality finishes and clean, uncluttered lines. From design to demolition to construction to completion, Stephanie worked with our contractor and his team to be sure that no one missed a beat. In the end, our home was all that we hoped for and far more. We could not have been more pleased with the final result and our experience in working with Stephanie. We would engage her again without hesitation.

We had a great experience with Stephanie on new construction project! She was excellent at helping us upgrade the builder selections to suit our taste while keeping our budget in mind. She brought several original ideas to the table that I am SO glad we got to incorporate in our home. We are so pleased with how it turned out and will definitely use her again!!

Stephanie is fun and enjoyable to work with. She worked on a complete kitchen gut and remodel that involved taking out a stairwell and adding a new bathroom. She has great connections to contractors and products and helped us make our house look worthy of a magazine photo shoot. She worked within our budget to come up with great solutions and I definitely hope we can work with her again in the future.

Elaine Lin

Amazingly talented, professional, and budget-conscious designer!!! Strongly recommended. She's so original (and knows how to DIY!) but also respects the client's opinions. Can't ask for a better designer. We became great friends after the project too.

Even though Stephanie is not based in New York, after meeting several NYC-based designers, I find myself always thinking of Stephanie first with potential projects in New York. It would be more inconvenient, but it's hard to find someone like her these days!

Having known Stephanie Sabbe for many years, we decided to mix friendship with business. We bought a house that sat for months on a "hot" Nashville market, an eyesore to say the least. She turned an ugly duckling into a swan. She reworked the exterior and interior in a way that balanced expenses and style to our liking. We received unsolicited offers to buy our house towards the end of our construction, speaking to the quality of work Stephanie produces. After living in our house for 1 year now, we routinely get compliments on our house and couldn't be happier. Better yet, after a large renovation mixing friendship and business, we are still good friends. This speaks to her character and quality of work she does. We continue to recommend her without reservation.

I can't say enough good things about Stephanie as a person and as a designer. She and I have worked on a variety of projects in my home from small stylistic updates to major renovations. She brings fresh, original ideas to the table while working within her clients style preferences and budgets. She has solid relationships in the field and is very resourceful when it comes to finding the right fit for contract work or that perfect piece of furniture. Above all, Stephanie recognizes that it isn't just about renovating or updating a room, it's about creating a space you call "home," a space you feel proud of, comfortable in and that fits your lifestyle needs. Now when I walk around my home I notice the numerous things that I love about it, whereas previously I often noticed the things I wanted to change. Outside of her many talents, she is a lovely, kind, funny person and I always enjoy my interactions with her. Not only is she my go-to for all things home related but I'm honored to call her my friend.

Stephanie patiently worked with us (from many states away!) to turn the tired, small front rooms of our 1920's colonial into welcoming, fresh, peaceful, family-oriented spaces that we use and appreciate everyday. She is a great listener, but also knows when to push back in order to get the best result. I learned a lot about design through her work. She has made our first home so much happier and more livable, and we're looking forward to seeking her advice on all of our spaces for many years to come.
