It is with great pride that the following testimonials are displayed here.
My wife and I were contemplating redoing our kitchen and the downstairs of our home. We diligently researched who everyone considered the top kitchen person in the industry. The name that kept coming to us was Joan Picone. We interviewed Joan and subsequently hired her to lead the kitchen project. From the onset of the job and through the most difficult times of demolition and construction, Joan was there to answer questions and make decisions. She gave us much needed moral support! I would recommend Joan to design, build and execute the most intricate, complicated project in any one’s home or company. To Joan’s credit, our project closely resembles our first thoughts and wildest dreams.

I had worked with Joan several years ago on the renovation of our kitchen. I was planning another major project for a master suite and entry and tried desperately to find her. It wasn’t until after the project was started that I did. Realizing I was in over my head, I was ecstatic to have tracked her down and put the project on HOLD until she was able to come by. Joan was able to quickly redesign my space, making it all more luxurious and functional than I could have ever done. I will continue to use her for future projects and highly recommend her to anyone who will settle for nothing less than perfection.

Over the past 11 years I have worked with Joan on many projects. To each one of these she has been the creative talent that has defines and develops the client’s ideas and made them a reality. Her interpersonal skills equal her talent. She has demonstrated the ability to successfully work with trade people, general contractors, architects, other designers and clients, (who have high expectations) to complete a project. She is committed to her job and understands how important it is to be available to answer questions. I have the highest respect for Joan. She has designed the kitchen in my personal home. I’m happy to refer Joan and work with her.

My husband and considered many kitchen designers, but when I met with Joan and immediately realized that her work reflected my visions exactly. We hired her on the spot! The plans she designed for our kitchen, family room and dining room changed the way we use our home. The project came out beautifully. It was obvious to us that Joan loves her work and put so much of herself into her business. She is a brilliant designer, honest, and dedicated to helping her client’s realize their goals. We consider her a friend.

She understands the designer's role and is able to collaborate to achieve perfection as envisioned by the designer and client. More importantly, the kitchens Joan designs are functional and beautiful. I would highly recommend her.

I am a general contractor who builds fine homes and renovations in New Jersey. I’ve know and worked with Joan for many years. She is a team player who is not only a great designer but understands the needs of a job site. She has an extensive knowledge of mechanical work, electrical and plumbing, and is willing to work out problems, handle client’s questions and help in any way. These are important to the completion of any project.
