Elegant Transformation for Mansion at Selby Gardens

December 19, 2012 / No Comments

In the French parlor, design mother/daughter duo Bonnie Lancaster and Keffie Lancaster envision what might happen if you were inside a big blue box from a famous jeweler. The creamy silk-taffeta drapes in the Tiffany-style blue room are festooned with hand-made ivory fabric roses and the tie-backs are encrusted with rhinestones. The Christmas tree is decorated with white orchids, peacocks and reflective blue balls for a holiday look that is the epitome of European elegance and sophisticated merriment.

Keffie communicated well and came up with great designs. I really appreciated her help.

What began as a professional vendor/designer relationship over 40 years ago, has evolved into genuine respect and... admiration coupled with being a part of the Lancaster team and family. Working with Lancaster Interior Design, we have been involved in many high quality, beautifully designed, exciting, and fabulous projects. We highly recommend this team because they have ‘simply the best’ clients and they engage everyone with unparalleled attention and commitment.read more

Lancaster Design is the cream of the crop in Sarasota for premium interior looks that are as functional as they are... beautiful. Keffie was professional and really listed to what were trying accomplish. Our home finished ahead of schedule and under budget. Absolutely the best...!!read more

My mom has had the worst experience with this company on a simple project of Kitchen cabinets being repainted and... countertops replaced. She also had a bathroom remodel in the plan but the project didn't get completed (started in April 2022 and start date is now pushed to May 2023). The cabinet painting is like sandpaper, the countertop installation was done wrong (even according to a second contractor that came in). Even with multiple requests Keffie has not been by the condo since my mother returned in early October to see the issues. These are only half the issues she is dealing with. I would not use this company.read more

My wife and I have been thrilled to work with All Things Design the past 2 years. From the initial design phase to the... installation this past summer, everything went smoothly and was completed in a timely fashion. Building a new home can be quite overwhelming and we felt like we had just enough hand holding but also allowed for "space" and patience during the initial phases of our project. We understand that projects like these don't just come together overnight.read more

We love everything Keffie has ever done for us both personally and for our businesses. She is a Jackie of All Trades! ... We met in 2015 at her fabulous shop on Fruitville road and we hired Keffie to redesign our condo in University Park. We installed all new flooring, new motorized blinds, a new kitchen and 3 bathrooms. We could not have been happier with the final project! 2 Years later we hired Keffie to redo my husbands office in downtown St. Pete. She worked with our architect and selected everything from top to bottom. Then my husband talked her into creating a new website and marketing materials for his business. She even planned and coordinated the launch party for one of his business ventures. I have never met someone more trustworthy, honest and easy to get along with. We have spent many hours (and years!) with Keffie and we can't say enough good things about the quality of her work and her ethics.read more

We were thrilled to find out that Keffie was available to assist us with some of our architectural and interior design... projects again this year. She is very talented and her ability to source and spec items for projects more than above average. She has been a part of our design team on 10+ projects over the years and we have watched her knowledge of design and CAD grow immensely over the years. We value her ability to translate an initial design concept into a complete package that our clients will understand and Keffie's value as part of our team is immeasurable.read more

Keffie has completed work for our Architectural firm for many years. She is highly creative and very talented. She... interacts with our staff as well as our clients and she always has positive attitude. We love that she always has a smile on her face. Keffie has created many concept boards and construction documents over the last 10 years and we are happy that she continues to work with us from abroad.read more

We were looking to have a new design and conceptual plan for our restaurant group and reached out to Keffie via a... recommendation from a friend in St. Pete. All Things Design provided us with a spectacular plan for remodelling, 3D renderings, Floor plans, and a new website. We also created a logo and designed uniforms and menus based on the conceptual plans. We are in the process of sending out to bid to local contractors to complete this project. The construction documents have been extremely helpful in getting accurate pricing and timelines from our subs and vendors. They are extremely detailed and any clarifications or alternations we needed were provided in a timely manner. We were very lucky to get this project completed in a short amount of time this summer and we will be starting our renovations at the end of next season. We look forward to having Keffie work on our next project.read more

Stunningly Incompetent Absolutely the worst experience I’ve ever had. As an interior designer, Keffie Lancaster was... utterly unprofessional, completely incompetent, never once met a deadline, and didn’t display even a modicum of customer service. Contractors reported to me that she didn't appear to know the business and was unresponsive to their calls. Just stunningly incompetent. After three months I received zero value and lost precious time - and finally terminated her and asked her to refund me the money I paid her. She refused. I was forced to start all over from scratch while she’s pocketed the fees she charged. Do NOT hire this dishonest woman for interior design work.read more

My parents were moving from a 3500 square foot home into a very small apartment over Easter weekend, and I could not... find a flight to get there in time. We found Keffie and she was AMAZING! My parents are in their 90s and very opinionated- she brought them together and was able to complete the move and make it beautiful in 4 days, I truly can't say enough nice things about her. KEFFIE IS AWESOME!read more

We purchased a home in the Esplanade community of Lakewood Ranch a few years ago. We needed to downsize from our... family home up north and it was quite a struggle to figure out where everything was going to go and how we were going to get it here. Keffie met with us almost a year before the completion of our home. Within a few weeks we had a firm plan of what was going and what was staying. This took a lot of stress off of my wife and I and we were able to start getting excited about our move to Florida. As soon as we had a closing date in place it was full steam ahead. After we closed our window treatments were installed, the inside of the house was painted, the wall paper was hung and we were on our way. As soon as our furniture arrived Keffie met the movers and literally unpacked our boxes for us! She was so quick and motivated it really helped keep us going. My wife was so happy with everything and continues to use Keffie when she hosts parties during the holidays.read more

We recently installed all new motorized blinds throughout our home. The pricing was the best we found, they arrived in... less than 2 weeks and we love that we can tell Alexa to open the blinds! We couldn't be more happy and are excited about doing more with Keffie. She is just full of ideas and gets me so inspired! We just moved in and needed to windows covered quickly. Next step is our new kitchen and new master bathroom. I am excited to see what designs Keffie will come up with for our new home.read more

We recently remodeled our house on Goldenrod St in Southgate and could not have been more pleased with the results. ... Our home was built in the 1960's and we didn't have an enormous budget. We had a plan in place before we even started and despite a few remodeling surprises, everything went according to plan. We are in love with our new kitchens and bathrooms.read more

Keffie Lancaster and her design team were extraordinary to work with throughout our remodel. What started as a quick... fix repair/remodel turned into a full scale, down to the studs, everything new renovation. From our kitchen cabinet installation to the beautiful wall treatments, no detail was left unnoticed. We were very impressed with the budget, The design process, the online invoice management system, and all of the project management tools. Hiring SDG is a no brainer!read more
