"Ambiance by Adair recently helped me to redesign and remodel my den into a sophisticated "bourbon lounge". The renovation entailed a new ceiling; all new painting, carpeting, lighting, & wallpaper; the addition of custom cabinets, bar, and counters; new furniture; and new decor--among other items.
I truly couldn't be happier with the outcome and experience from top to bottom. From the very start, Adair's meticulous attention to detail and project planning ensured that I had a crystal clear vision of the entire renovation and all associated expenses. Her remodeling choices not only grasped my needs & tastes but also identified a host of innovative approaches to transforming what was originally a narrow and uninviting room into what has easily become my favorite room in the house. Every time I walk into my new bourbon lounge I feel like I'm stepping into a boutique hotel bar, and my friends and family are consistently blown away by the space.

When it comes to remaking and styling home spaces, Adair's creativity, attention to detail, and impeccable tastes are bar none. Every element in my new lounge--from the recessed and ambient pendant lighting, to the rich color palette, to the custom shelving and curated decor--was thoughtfully chosen and perfectly executed. I have extensively renovated virtually every room in my 1920s farmhouse at this point and I can honestly say that Adair's work is the highest quality in the area.
In addition to Adair's exceptional design work and planning, she was also an absolute delight to work with. She was professional, personable, responsive, and incredibly organized. She managed the project seamlessly, coordinating contractors, sourcing unique pieces, and keeping everything on schedule and within budget. And she repeatedly anticipated and addressed issues (that I would have never even had thought of!) well before they arose.
If you're looking for a designer who combines unparalleled creative vision with top-notch project management and client care, I highly recommend Ambiance by Adair. In fact, I'm already working with her on the next space in my house to transform!"

"Adair helped me to design a new kitchen that far exceeded my expectations. She perfectly balanced specially made wood counters and shelves with a blend of classy quartzite. The chosen paint colors flowed beautifully through my kitchen into  my living room, and the curtain design was perfect. While I was at work she would meet with the numerous contractors and organize all of the different aspects to the project. This was such a relief! The highlight was coming home from vacation to find the kitchen  and living room fully completed and decorated with vases, pillows and artwork that perfectly complimented the design. She is fabulous! I discovered not only a wonderful designer, but a friend for life. She made this an excellent experience and I plan to consult with her on future projects. 
"Adair worked with me on my home staging project.  I hired her because I was selling  my city home but was apprehensive about listing it -- thought that it may not sell right away.    Her enthusiasm and love for what she does certainly shows.  We collaborated extremely well and, in the end, the house looked amazing….so amazing that it sold in just two days!!  I was so impressed with her that I hired her to  do the interior design work on my new home.  The home looks better than I could have ever imagined.  I love it!!!   Thank you, Adair!!!"

"Adairs assistance with my move to downsize to a more manageable home was invaluable. She helped edit and drew each floor with furniture placements to guide the movers and remind us of where things were going during my stressful day. From large furniture to lamps, rugs, paintings and smaller accessories Adair can pull a room together with unexpected flair and creativity. She also helped pick paint colors that I may have been hesitant to try, I am glad I put my trust in her vision. Her design and staging skills helped to make my new house a home. I highly recommend working with Adair." 
"Adair Witmer has a gift for color and design elements.  I have enlisted her help in decorating my personal home.  My home received an entire new look with Adair’s assistance.  My existing furniture, paintings, and other decorating items were utilized  by Adair to create an entirely new ambiance.  We also incorporated some ‘treasures’ from my basement.  My family room, den, and living room now all have much better flow and space due to Adair’s design plan and placement. The best part is my home was given a fresh look for nominal dollars spent and completed in a day’s time!"

"After living in my home for 16 years with 4 rambunctious kids and 2 large dogs, my kitchen, to say the least was a disaster. It was actually embarrassing to have friends over because it looked that awful. Thankfully I knew Adair and her ability to transform any room, whether it be an improperly lit restaurant or a house. I now find an awesome sense of peace within my new surroundings. She worked so astutely to figure out what would synch with my personality rather than impose her own preferences. The result was not only a beautiful new kitchen, but with Adair's assistance, we continued to transform the entire downstairs! I couldn't be more pleased with the results! I now confidently and happily have family and friends over because my house offers a great sense of comfort and style. Having Adair involved was the best decision I could have made and I would access her assistance again in a heartbeat!"

"The work that Adair did for us had a significant impact on the value of our home, but more importantly, the design of our new kitchen has made our daily living and entertaining so much better!!  The design that Adair created for our space is not only functional, it is gorgeous!  Our new kitchen flows easily into our living room, making the space inviting for entertaining." 
Allow me to join others in gushing about Adair Witmer. My husband and I are new to the Lancaster area, having moved here from a 5,000 sf house. Two weeks after arrival at Willow Valley Communities, we were offered a 2100 sf apartment with renovations starting immediately. I recognized I needed help with this downsizing and contacted Adair. A few days later we started the renovations with Adair always available on short notice to guide me through the renovation process. Our desired goal was to make the switch from a lifetime of traditional decorating to modern, but she was to blend in our possessions purchased while living abroad for 28 years, predominantly oriental. My overall guidance to her was to “pull me back in when I go off track.” That hasn’t been necessary because Adair is always one step ahead in researching and narrowing down the selections from which to choose. One of her first suggestions was to change the standard traditional fireplace with a mantle to a modern floor-to-ceiling design, which has turned out to be the eye-catcher as guests enter. Adair has helped me with hardware selections, light fixtures, window treatments, carpets and rugs, wallpaper, back splashes, furniture purchases, all with excellent taste. And did I mention that her input was often needed on very short notice; Adair was only a text or phone call away and responded immediately. We’ve been working together for 7 months now. She’s got an eye for what is needed, solves problems effortlessly, and has gathered a group of professional personnel to help as needed. One more important factor should be mentioned. Adair has a beautiful personality and is very easy to work with. You, too, will learn in short order that Adair is not only a great decorator, but a wonderful friend. We are so lucky to have her in our lives.

I enjoyed immensely working with Adair decorating and furnishing my Villa. Everything she recommended was amazing. After it was all decorated it looked like something you would see in a magazine. I highly recommend her interior decorating abilities. I would look forward to work with Adair again.

"When I first saw Adair's staging work I immediately realized that she has the ability to bring an extra measure of style to a job.  She goes well beyond basic staging to give a property a high-end look.  Although that first job was in a tiny townhouse, I knew she was the right professional to stage my high-end listings.  She took a lovely but dated 6,000 square foot home and gave it the verve necessary to appeal to upwardly mobile buyers. The home sold in under 60 days."
