We recently hired Agni to renovate our office in Newtown, CT, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the outcome! She completely transformed our space, creating a fresh, organic, and vibrant atmosphere from start to finish. What was once a dark, outdated office is now a bright, modern, and inspiring environment. Agni and her team were professional, attentive to our needs, and exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Agni to anyone looking to elevate their office space. Thank you for designing such a beautiful environment for our team!

Agni and the APK Design team did a phenomenal job remodeling Curtis Packaging's offices. She clearly understood our vision and the final result is outstanding. As a luxury packaging company working with iconic global brands, we need to exude quality. Thanks to Agni, our beautifully redesigned headquarters now compliment our superior craftmanship. I highly recommend Agni to design your next project!

I wanted to turn newly acquired space into dream space in which to launch a women’s clothing store in Ridgefield, Connecticut. Agni Kyprianou and the APK Design team set my new business apart with a unique perspective by creating exciting design and mixing space functionality with their working knowledge of building code requirements and core design elements. Both thorough and meticulous, Ms. Kyprianou’s specifications of materials, fixtures, and furnishings brought my vision to life. The completed project exceeded my expectations. My boutique will not only impress today’s shoppers, but the visual design will exceed their expectations too.

Agni and her team have an impeccable eye for detail and an extraordinary ability to transform spaces into breathtaking works of art. She took our vision and elevated it beyond our wildest dreams, creating an atmosphere that was both elegant and inviting. Her creativity and passion shine through in every aspect of her work, from the stunning floral arrangements to the perfectly coordinated decor. What impressed us the most was her ability to listen to our needs and incorporate our ideas seamlessly into her design. She has a unique talent for blending different styles and elements, resulting in a cohesive and harmonious look that left our guests in awe. We were so impressed with Agni and her teams work at Tyde at Walnut Beach that we have decided to bring her on board for a major facelift at our sister venue, Cascade. We can't wait to see the magic she will work there, and we're confident that she'll exceed all expectations once again.

Agni is the only person I trusted to design my psychology private practice office. After learning about my style and vision, she created perfect designs for both my therapy and waiting room spaces. From the moment we first met at the raw space, she tended to every last detail. What I appreciated most about working with Agni was her willingness to embrace my budget while holding true to the initial vision upon which we decided. The spaces are therapeutic, relaxing, and welcoming. I couldn't recommend her more.

This was my first experience with a professional designer and I highly recommend APK services! Agni came up with a bathroom and laundry room solution that no one else could see, even though we had already had several contractors come and look at the space. The project turned out a million times better than I expected and it was the details that Agni added that are the most special to me, her matching of paint colors to our chosen tile and choosing fixtures I would have never thought to look twice at has really makes the project extra special! So happy with our choice to hire APK!

Agni helped us design the kitchen in our 1897 Victorian. The space had a lot of challenges and she was up for that challenge. She worked well with our GC and was always available to respond to last minute questions and concerns that inevitably pop up working on an old home. She handled everything for us. There is no way I could have done it on my own. Too many decisions and choices and she made it easy.

This is the second project Agni has handled for me. While designing my new, small office space was not the mammoth task I set before her for my restaurant, she, nevertheless came through. She was given the task to design a contemporary office space for my commercial Bakery in Danbury, CT. She once again surpassed my expectations, designing a contemporary space with a modern look. The highlight of the space is a full wall design featuring out corporate logo and tag line. It’s very impactful and impressive. Once again I have to highly recommend Agni for your design project, whatever that may be.

She then integrates her designs to create the perfect room for her clients with her creative, unique vision. Agni designed our game room, music room, office and living area.

APK Designs was an enormous asset in the renovation of our home. Every room was painted, flooring was replaced, fireplace surrounds received new stone, all light fixtures were updated and the kitchen was gutted. APK ensured our new home emerged with beautiful flow from one room to the next while also incorporating eye-catching design choices in every room. APK’s product and industry knowledge were excellent and played a huge role in accomplishing this turnaround in only a few month’s time. Every project will experience unforeseen setbacks but especially when operating during a world-wide pandemic; APK was supportive with realistic alternatives and solutions to keep everything moving forward.

We hired APK Designs to renovate our kitchen, dining room and family room. Agni was very professional with great attention to detail. She first took measurements of our kitchen and provided two layouts that addressed our concerns and needs. We then worked with her to select and finish the layout we liked best. She helped us select and order the cabinetry, plumbing & lighting fixtures, appliances and tile. She worked with our GC to complete the renovation. She then proposed a design for the living room and dining room with furniture, wall colors and lighting. We are so happy with APK Designs we are looking forward to use them again for our upstairs floor. Agni was most helpful. Her talent and creativity shine through in every room. We highly recommend her!

Agni was amazing to work with and was able to transform our run down embroidery room into an attractive and comfortable clubhouse for our youth baseball teams. I was on a deadline as our athletes were beginning their training programs and Agni made it super easy to make my selections on everything from furniture to finishes. She went above and beyond accommodating my busy schedule. Her service was unbelievable, even coming to my rescue when our couch delivery man showed up at 6AM and no one was available to accept it - She worked restlessly to assure we received everything we needed before our deadline. I would highly recommend Agni and her team to anyone looking to hire a designer who really listens to her clients and delivers in every way.

We found Agni of APK Designs to be very professional and courteous. Her talent and eye for detail is amazing. We love our new family room because it is not only beautiful but is functional as well. She took the time to listen and address all our concerns. For example, lighting was a huge problem for us. Agni created a well coordinated interior with ample lighting and comfy furniture for reading. We love her work and can't wait to have her back for more improvements in our home.

She took time to listen to our wish list and we immediately loved her proposed design. When implementation came, she always took the time to explain whenever we had questions and offer alternate options. We recommend Agni for any project and we can't wait to have her back for our kitchen renovation next year!

I would describe Agni in three words - responsive, customer-oriented, and tasteful. My renovation project included 2 complete bathrooms and painting of every interior room in a very tight timeline and budget. After we met and discussed what I like from a design perspective, she helped me pick and provided options for tiles, countertop, bathroom hardware, paint color, lights, mirrors, etc. Through the project, she was very timely in responding to my questions and offered alternatives if her initial suggestions did not meet my needs. Agni was very easy to work, and she was aligned with what I was trying to achieve for my project. In the end, I am very happy with the service that she provided and I love the colors in my house and my two new bathrooms!

Agni was a true polished professional. She was a wealth of ideas and helped us navigate through the bathroom remodeling process. She worked well with my contractors - the demolition crew, my master carpenter, my electrician & my tile layer. Agni recommended a superior plumber too. She patiently took the time to explain her vision and make sure it was in line with what we wanted. She helped me select the tile and designed a gorgeous design on the floor as well as 2 in-wall niches - 1 in the shower and 1 next to the bathtub.
All in all, the project was a phenomenal success and I attritube that mainly to Agni's expertise and focus. I would highly recommend her for other projects.

We hired Agni of APK Designs to help us renovate our master bath. She was truly amazing through the whole process. She met with us to see what we wanted and then helped us select all the materials, did drawings for the general contractor to follow and visited the project on a regular basis to see that everything was going smoothly once construction begun. She oversaw the entire project from start to finish and was always available to answer our questions or find solutions to whatever came up. We love our new bathroom and highly recommend Agni for any project big or small. She is a very talented designer and a true professional!

This work involved the complete remodeling of a half bath on the main floor. New tile, a new sink and vanity, new lighting, a new mirror, paint and molding were all selected and purchased by Agni. The project was on time and within budget. Furthermore, it was a pleasure to work with Agni especially since she coordinated all aspects of this work, including scheduling with the various trades and finding all of the materials and components required for such a job. The work site was neat and the work was completed in a timely manner. It was / is a great success.

I am a kitchen & bath designer who works with many interior designers and architects, but whenever I am asked for a recommendation I seem to always refer Agni of APK Designs. Agni has an excellent eye and always seems to come up with a very functional but unique design. I have done several projects with Agni and I always learn something new from her. She is the consumate professional, from the initial client meeting through design, to completion. She has the ability to tune in to the wants and needs of the client and she always brings out the best in me. I think she is the definition of a great interior designer, and that's why I will continue to refer her.

We hired APK Designs for our master bathroom complete remodel. After our initial consultation, Agni provided us with a design that perfectly captured our style and desires. She lead us through the entire process from material selection to screening contractors. Agni was very patient with us as we weighed optiones for colors, fixtures, window treatments, and accessories. We are so pleased with our new bathroom and APK Designs, that we will use Agni again in the future. Very talented and a delight to work with.

As a general contractor I have worked with APK Designs on a number of projects. Agni is a talented professional who is devoted to her work. She always gives great attention to her clients as well as her projects and has a keen eye for detail. Her construction drawings are clear, well drafted and easy to follow. She is great at helping me coordinate certain phases of a project with the client and vendors. I highly recommend Agni for any project because she always works hard at anything she undertakes regardless of size or budget. Again, her attention to detail, & organizational skills, is unparalleled!

We called in APK Designs when we decided our restaurant needed a small facelift. Our dining walls were painted in deep red and even though we liked the look for a long time we were ready for a drastic change. Agni suggested colors that were appropriate for an Italian family restaurant. She replaced the deep reds with sunny yellows, medium olive greens and accents of deep browns. The transformation was amazing.The lighter colors made the space feel larger but yet cozy and inviting.We have received many compliments from our customers. We never thought that just changing a color scheme could have such an impact, but we have actually noticed an increase in sales as well as an increase in the number of people who choose to dine in (compared to the same time last year). We are very happy with Agni's work. She was professional, understood the challenges of the space and worked closely with my husband to address our concerns and expectations. Agni has already given us some great ideas for increasing our seating space and improving the lighting so we have decided to hire APK Designs for the larger renovation we are planning to have in the near future.

My husband is a Pediatrician and his office was in great need of a redesign. APK Designs helped us turn a dated reception area and office into a colorful, happy and functional space. Agni helped us select upholstery materials, furnishings and wall coverings that are appropriate for a doctor's office, not only colorful but durable as well. We are very happy with the level of service and attention we received from APK Designs and we look forward to working with them again.

Agni is a by far the best designer that we ever worked with! She tackled the family room in our center hall colonial house. The room has been very difficult to decorate in the past because of the high ceilings and multiple doors and windows. The fireplace provided a focal point but all of our previous furniture felt wrong and uncomfortable. We had worked with several design professionals in the past that left us disappointed.
Agni recommended a dark, rich wall color that warmed the room, she provided us with a simple design that really works, she helped us shop for the furniture and accessories and put the room together beautifully. We have spent more time in the room in the last 2 weeks than in the previous 10 years! The room now works for watching TV, reading and sitting by the fireplace which where our main 3 goals.
Through the whole project Agni listened to what we wanted, was infinitely patient with us, guided us to make choices that where a little out of our more traditional comfort zone but really worked in the room!
We enjoyed working with her so much that we are plan.

"Recently we had the opportunity to work with Agni Pavlidou Kyprianou on the renovation of our master and hallway bathrooms in our home. We would like to express our appreciation for the excellent service that Agni provided. At the start of this project Agni designed, and presented to us, several possible designs for our consideration. Our project was challenging because we wanted to keep some of the existing structure in place. We wanted the rooms to “not look renovated” but to join together seamlessly. Agni made all of the site visits to select materials, coordinated the contractors work, visited the site daily, maintained the budget and ensured that the project was completed in a timely manner. Working with Agni on this project was a very enjoyable experience. The results were extremely successful, and both of us are pleased with the bathrooms".

"I compared several designers through an online home designer search service. Agni of APK Designs was the only designer that offered a one-price package. As I myself own a consulting company, I know that a package price is much more reasonable, especially with such a potentially open-ended situation. It means Agni trusts the homeowner to be reasonable, and that's the kind of designer I want to trust. Professionally, she has a keen eye and a talent for agreeable and functional aesthetics. Our goal was to make design choices for a significant renovation and decorate the house in order to make the home as appealing as possible for the housing market. We had budget constraints and a clear goal. I felt both were met admirably. Agni worked with us on scheduling visits, made many trips, even though she was quite a distance from us, and was adept at conveying decisions through email and phone".

"We own a 1974-built Adirondack contemporary which we bought 2 years ago. We were in the midst of planning a renovation of the entire exterior - siding, roofing, insulation, windows, skylights, doors, patio, decking - when our architect "flaked" on us and abandoned the project. We approached Agni about taking over the project and finishing the "last few details" from the previous architect's plan. Rather than simply finishing the previous plan, she pointed out design flaws within it; specifically the use of too many materials - and the wrong type of materials - for use in a modern home. 1 month before the contractors were due to arrive, we took Agni's advice, scrapped the plan from the high-priced Danbury-based architects, and started afresh with a design that she came up with from scratch. The result was awesome. Not only does it complement the "bones" of the original house far more the previous plan did, it came in almost $20,000 cheaper! Not to say that it scrimped on materials - but it used premium materials judiciously. The results are a tongue and groove cedar and hardie-reveal panel modern home that fits our wooded location in Weston perfectly. Agni is a dream to work with and a true friend."
