What People Are Saying:

  • “Five stars are not enough!

    -Mrs. Langer Redondo Beach

    “I found Christine online when I decided to remodel my four bathrooms. Let me say, hiring her was the best choice I could have made. From beginning to end, she made the entire process easy and stress free. One of the reasons I chose her is because she acts as designer AND contractor. I work full time so had no time to shop for tiles, vanities, faucets, etc. Christine came to my home and brought suggestions to me and from there we chose the design together. She ordered everything and had it delivered to my house so that I never had to go into one store. Her entire crew was wonderful to work with, from the demolition, plumbers, electrician and tile guys. Even when there were hiccups (because there are always hiccups), she made everything right. I could not be happier with the final outcome and am now planning on remodeling my kitchen. I have complete faith that when I start that project, Christine will do an outstanding job!!!!”

  • "Christine is extremely creative and has a wealth of resources at her finger tips."

    — Shelby & Tom Schulte Playa Vista, CA

    “My husband and I have had the pleasure to work with Christine on two different homes. We were so pleased with our first experience that we didn’t hesitate to call Christine once we moved and needed some help with detailing our next house.

    I truly appreciate that Christine takes to time to really understand our style and our lifestyle and is able to design to meet and blend both needs. Even with a toddler and a dog, Christine has helped us create an environment that is warm, beautiful, yet comfortable and safe.

    Christine is extremely creative and has a wealth of resources at her finger tips. I especially appreciated the wide variety of choices that she presented to us. She is also extremely responsive and well organized, which really made working her a complete joy! Christine has a very positive attitude and never made us feel that any job, question, or task was too big or too small.

    We are thrilled and appreciative of all Christine’s hard work. She really made all the difference in helping to put the beautiful finishing touches on our new home.”

  • "She helped us design our home into a space that suited our needs as a family and our desire for beautiful design"

    — Mr. and Mrs. Munro Palos Verdes, CA

    “I have had the pleasure of working with Christine many different times over the last few years. She helped us design our home into a space that suited our needs as a family and our desire for beautiful design. She is so creative and talented with integrating gorgeous fabrics, window treatments, furniture and accessories all together for a fabulous look! She was great at both listening to what we needed but also encouraging us to make bold choices – that always turned out great!

    Christine also helped us stage our previous home for sale. We received many compliments on her style and decisions. She stayed within our budget and completed everything within our time frames. Even our realtor noted how great she was, from both a professional and personal standpoint.

    Most of all, I admire Christine’s energy and enthusiasm. She loves what she does, and she puts 100% into each of her projects. It is rare to meet anyone with as much positive spirit and talent!”

  • "She made this maddening experience pleasant....and fun! "

    -Mrs. Farr Redondo Beach, CA

    “My husband and I met Christine across our backyard fence! When learning she was a designer we thought immediately to consult with her as we were planning to remodel our kitchen and both bathrooms. Christine came to our home, got to know us , quickly assessed our style and then went to work. We loved her designs, choices of appliances, and materials. I was so glad we didn't have to spend hours at the tile store or pour over paint swatches, she knew what would work. Christine was also very responsive to all our needs and was quick to answer our texts and questions. She made this maddening experience pleasant....and fun! Everything turned out great, our kitchen is wonderfully functional and I have not stopped loving it!”

  • "Once a plan was decided on, she drew it up on paper right there in front of us. "

    -Dan C. Lomita, CA

    “CMS is outstanding and professional in all aspects! She really knows her craft inside and out! She is flexible while listening to various ideas that we had, and once a plan was decided on, she drew it up on paper right there in front of us. She then explained it to us and made it very easy for us to understand. Overall, we are very happy with her design.”

  • "A wonderful experience from start to finish!"

    -Jolyn H. Hermosa Beach, CA

    “A wonderful experience from start to finish! I needed everything from furniture to wallpaper to interior and exterior paint and I couldn't have pulled it all together so beautifully without Christine's hard work. Some designers will force their own style onto you, but Christine went out of her way to make everything feel tailored to my specific tastes and budget, all the while keeping in constant contact either in person, on the phone, or through email so that my questions were always answered quickly and thoroughly. I felt like I had a partner through the entire process and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results! I will happily use her on projects in the future and suggest you do as well.”

  • "do yourself a favor and go with an expert like Christine ..... she is a rock star!”

    -Tad K. Carlsbad, CA

    “When it comes to choosing an interior designer like CMS Interiors, there is a reason people go for it. It is to make sense of the maddening amount of choices that you end up with by visiting tile store after tile store, flooring center after flooring center and on and on and on. You end up with a muddled brain and no sense of style at all. You need help, an expert, someone who knows what goes where and why it goes there and how to get you a deal on it.

    Christine saves us from ourselves and helps us create amazing spaces. Plus the discounts she is able to get thanks to her long established contacts with tile manufacturers, hardwood flooring companies, installers... you name it, save you a world of headaches and save you so much money you feel silly for having worried about every hiring an interior designer.

    So if you want a space your friends rave about and you don't want to regret having ever consider a home remodel, do yourself a favor and go with an expert like Christine ..... she is a rock star!”

  • "Christine is an amazing interior designer and a highly competent, experienced and flexible person to work with.."

    -Mr. Brad F Redondo Beach

    “My wife and I worked with Christine on a large, home renovation project. Christine and CMS Interior Design were amazing to work with! We couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of our project and our extremely positive experience with Christine and her team.

    Shortly after meeting Christine, we immediately felt a connection and knew that we could work with her and that she could do the job. After attentively listening to my wife and me, asking questions, and surveying our interests, wants and needs, Christine quickly determined a design style that both my wife and I would be happy with and that would meet our functional needs. Christine helped us make many difficult decisions over many months. She met us at our home for working meetings on many occasions.

    We wanted to ensure we had sufficient storage, flow, a better functioning kitchen and a home theater area, in addition to meeting my wife's and my differing design styles and preferences, with focus on ensuring our home's functionality for us and our young daughter.

    My wife and I started off worlds apart, but Christine quickly bridged the gap, paving the way for a fairly smooth and unimpeded redesign process. Amazingly, Christine was able to find a design style that satisfied both of us! She helped us select paint colors, furnishings (including sizing and placement), flooring, window treatments, artwork, fireplace, door and cabinet hardware, mirrors and material for the bench seating. She helped us design a new kitchen pantry and bench seating to go with the existing kitchen cabinets and layout, in addition to helping us layout new ceiling fans, recessed lighting, a chandelier, pendant lights, and all of the finishing touches such as area rugs, flowers, and accessories. She met us at furniture stores and home goods stores to help us select items. She brought along samples of what we had selected to ensure everything would work well together.

    We worked with Christine for well over one year, and we can't say enough good things about her. She was always responsive and communicative--an imperative when undertaking what we did. She made a stressful and challenging process as easy as humanly possible. She has a wonderful personality and a genuine passion for her work, and it was clear that this was more than a job for her. She found this challenging, rewarding and fun. She was budget and schedule conscious and flexible with our schedules.

    Christine is an amazing interior designer and a highly competent, experienced and flexible person to work with. She is the consummate professional. There is absolutely no way my wife and I could have done it without her, and we are so glad we enlisted her services. Working with Christine paid for itself many times over. In the final analysis, it's really a small investment given the difficulty and importance of such a project.

    Quite simply, Christine knows how to work with people and how to design. I would highly recommend Christine and CMS Interior Design.”

  • "ALL my expectations were exceeded and then some."

    -Mr. Dashiell Hermosa Beach

    “CMS Interior Design provided an amazing service for me. My mother is a retired Interior Designer so let's just say I had some ideas of how a client should be treated. ALL my expectations were exceeded and then some. Christine Stahlberg and Taylor Langos were the "Dream Team” to turn my house remodel into an updated trendy property that appeals to all while still accommodating some details I wanted to include. With the recent inflation woes and supply chain issues I was very worried about turn around times and prices for materials but CMS expertly shopped for high quality materials and used expert craftsmen to deliver superb results. You have to trust CMS with the process, vendors and materials they select because they are true pros in this business, believe me you will be happy. I highly recommend CMS and you can reach out to them for my contact info should you wish to hear more."
