“FIVE STAR REVIEW,” it's a rare pleasure these days to offer such a stunning and professional review. First let me personally thank Natalie Kalajo, my designer at Cantoni who helped me during my recent visit. From this point forward, it was such a pleasure to meet and work with Natalie I am eagerly anticipating my next design visit to finish my home interior remodel project. I live in Austin and visited the Houston showroom on a dear friend’s referral, I’m so happy they shared their own wonderful experience. Yes, I drove 3 hours and spent two days working on this first visit for my home redesign and furniture update. The entire Cantoni staff was excellent as well, attentive and alert however not intrusive or overly aggressive as sometimes can happen. While meeting Natalie and explaining my two-day time frame, my goals and sharing my own interior design background and knowledge, she was immediately clued into my style, focus and needs as a client. Without a doubt her background in design and skills are immediately apparent. Working with such a gifted salesperson makes designing and working on your space extremely easy and relaxing. As part of my trip I did also visit other showrooms during those two days. They did not measure up although polite and professional as well, the inventory was not comfortable the scale was too small for a true Texan and the materials were not the quality of Cantoni. I asked Natalie “who it was that did the buying for the store”, apparently the owner himself. Another five stars for the great selection of inventory that seamlessly works together so well, truly a gifted eye for style and function. My final order was gone over in great detail. Every item was verified to meet my requests and needs. The invoicing was clear concise and accurate! It really was such a pleasure thank you Natalie for your wonderful detailed eye, professional work and such warm personal attention.

Natalie Kalajo is a fabulous interior designer. Her eye for detail and choosing the most outstanding pieces to complete a room is incredible. She has made our home a livable work of art that is worthy of being featured in a home magazine. Natalie is a true artist!

It is rare to come across a highly talented designer like Natalie. Ridiculously efficient and hard working. I had the pleasure of working with her in July 2017 on a master bedroom and collaborated on several pieces of Italian furniture. Natalie expertly filled the role as designer for the project and providing a terrific new look in just under a month. I was impressed by her ability to handle multiple projects and work especially tough clients like myself, so effortlessly. As a member of a design or remodel team, Natalie would have my highest recommendation and have found she is rather nice to work with too.

Interior design is an art. A skilled interior designer combines personal tastes and preferences of clients with artful design. Natalie Kalajo at Cantoni is such a designer. She listens carefully to the needs and tastes of her customers and delights them with the most amazing selection of furniture, upholstery, color palettes, and art to bring the design to life. Our first project with Natalie was our formal dining room. Natalie designed the layout, and recommended the dining table, chairs, buffet, and art to perfectly coordinate with existing furniture in the adjoining living room. The dining room furniture and art brought together the two large adjacent spaces, melding colors and textures in the most pleasing manner. Next, we had Natalie design and select furniture and art for our great room and dinette area. The round dining table with ceramic insert and leather chairs fit perfectly in the space, and flow beautifully with the rest of the furniture. We are delighted with her immense talent, focus, and hard work. She always puts her customers first. At no point did we feel any pressure to make decisions. She was more than accommodating of our tastes, and gladly made changes to give us amazing design options to choose from. We could not be happier with her beautiful designs and collaborative style, and the outstanding customer support from the staff at Cantoni. Our experience is nothing short of outstanding – five out of five stars! Like
