Lisa and her team at the Home Gallery are an absolute joy to work with! They really listen and understand their customers’ vision, and are able to make it a reality with their creative talent and artistic ability. Most of all they make the project fun, and treat everything, no matter how big or small, with the utmost care and professionalism.

After being so overwhelmed for five years on what to do with my dated kitchen, I finally enlisted the design services of Lisa Davenport’s Home Gallery. After our first consultation, I immediately felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from me! Lisa’s expertise in this field is amazing. Lisa and the rest of the staff were able to pull information from me about my tastes, decipher them, and transform them into the beautiful inviting kitchen my family and I now enjoy. There is no way I could have created this space on my own. Home Gallery even made it a FUN experience! I can’t wait to work on another room with Lisa and her team!

Over the years, we have truly enjoyed and appreciated the advice and assistance Lisa and her team have given us. My husband and I first worked with her almost 10 years ago when we moved into our new home. At the time she assisted with wall colors and simple design. More recently she and the Home Gallery staff assisted with a refresh and full makeover on that same property. In addition they have helped us transform our vacation home on the lake in a way we could never have done on our own. From a blank slate the Home Gallery team helped us transform our lake house into a retreat that gives us much needed relaxation and comfort. Many guests that stay, have commented that it looks like it should be in a magazine and we agree. Both homes are distinct in their style, each uniquely designed to our expressed needs. I have come to trust Lisa implicitly and know she has saved us an incredible amount of time and money. Her decisive nature allows us to finish a project quickly without worry that we are buying something that we might regret or spending money on something that ultimately won’t work in our space. We are proud of the spaces we have created with Lisa and the personal satisfaction and value that they provide is priceless.

A decade after constructing our home, my wife and I concluded that we lacked the time, expertise or resources to execute a design fitting of both our lifestyle and tastes. Complicating matters was an ill-fated alliance with a previous designer that resulted in the achievement of neither. Having read about Lisa in several Hartford Courant articles, we paid a visit to Home Gallery. The variety of styles and quality of product impressed us such that we made an appointment with her. Nearly three years later, we can say that we are very comfortable in our home.
Lisa and the Home Gallery staff have been accommodating from day one as they’ve counseled us on design work associated with multiple assignments including furnishings, color, millwork, flooring, window treatments and fabric. We’ve been impressed with Lisa’s knowledge, good humor and willingness to be personally involved. Her associates are knowledgeable and pleasant to work with as well. Home Gallery itself is a wonderful place to get new ideas and purchase fine home furnishings at a fair price. With so many one-of-a-kind things, it can be difficult to leave without something new in tow.
We highly recommend Home Gallery, Lisa and her team, to anyone desiring an innovatively designed interior without high pressured sales tactics. It’s a nice place with nice people…a good place to do business. That’s why we keep going back.

Lisa Davenport and her team are pleasant to work with and very enthusiastic about each project that she is involved in. Lisa’s experience provides her with great ideas and vision for each project. On any job we have worked on together, she has been excellent at keeping the lines of communication open between all parties on site. I am happy to be part of any job Lisa and the Home Gallery team is involved with.

Lisa and her staff did a phenomenal job in redecorating my home; from the drapes, to the colors, to the choice of furnishings and artwork. Lisa is very talented, easy to work with and very customer focused. I am especially impressed in how well she got to know my style and preferences. The end result is a home that reflects my personality, and receives rave reviews from family and friends. I highly endorse and recommend Lisa's services, her team and her products.

Lisa Davenport and the staff of The Home Gallery have transformed my home into a warm and inviting space for family and friends. They have added a refined elegance to existing decor through the use of custom millwork, paint & wallpaper, and helped to select those "hard to find - one of a kind" accessories that make a house a home. Their attention to detail, wealth of knowledge, and support from design conception to completion ensured that our decor not only fits our lifestyle but is classic and timeless.

Lisa Davenport is a creative and realistic interior designer. She has helped us with our kitchen (twice) and with other rooms in our homes. Her recommendations resulted in a comfortable and upscale environment that fits us as a couple - and that draws rave reviews from our friends. She was right on the money about kitchen features that would add value in selling our home. She and Ed are easy to work with and I recommend them without reservation.

Lisa and the Home Gallery staff helped us redesign a master bathroom that was very outdated. During our initial interview, Lisa talked to us about our needs, how we used the space, and what we would like to have in it. Starting with a few tiles that we liked, she and her team crafted a design that was gorgeous and that was within our budget. The final result is spectacular! From the glass tile wall, to the new large window, to the pocket door, Lisa went the extra mile to make sure the design worked for us and was beautiful. We absolutely love the design! And, throughout the entire design and construction process, Lisa and the Home Gallery staff were always available to make sure things went as smoothly as possible. We really enjoy working with them to make our house a comfortable, stylish home.

It has been a pleasure working with Lisa and her staff for the past two years. My husband and I stopped into the Home Gallery, with our newly completed house plans, to get acquainted with Lisa's company. We explained that we were building a new home and Lisa was more than willing to introduce herself and her services to us. Lisa asked if we had our house plans and we were excited to present them to her. Lisa sat down with us, reviewed the plans, and in a short time offered several insightful suggestions. She made a great first impression on us. Lisa's friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and self-confident manner was apparent. We had no doubts, after that brief encounter, we were going to be happy having her help guide us through our house project.
In the ensuing months, there were numerous decisions to be made. I was always comfortable knowing all of my questions and concerns were answered with thoughtful, honest answers and explanations.
The quality of the furnishings, window treatments and the workmanship of all recommended contractors were impeccable. I have had confidence knowing that our purchases from the Home Gallery were met with high standards.
I am thankful to Lisa, Allyson and all affiliated with their business in helping to make our dreams a reality.
We are, at the present, near completion of our new home. The support and enthusiasm Lisa and her wonderful assistant Allyson continue to afford us, is greatly appreciated. They continue to impress us with their expertise in the field of design. We would recommend the interior design services of Lisa Davenport with high regard and without exceptions or reservations.

Lisa has been my designer for over two years, and began work for me when my family moved into a new home in Glastonbury. It was only a few years old, and the previous owners did very little in the house so we had a clean slate really. What she and the Home Gallery staff has done is completely incredible, and we are close to having furnished most of the rooms at this point. She, and her associate Dorothy, have done an amazing job in understanding what our family’s tastes and desires are, and coupled that with her knowledge and flair for making things look fabulous. I have no talent really in decoration, but do have ideas about how I would like things to look. She has selected fabrics and pieces that I never would have thought of and made them fit perfectly in the house. She has been able to work with certain things that I wanted to keep, and was honest where we needed to do full replacement. She is creative and is able to marry uniqueness with sensibility. She always gives me choices, which is helpful when making decisions. One of the other wonderful things about using Lisa’s services is that we pick out the big items (rugs, couches, chairs, bookcases, etc.) and then she fills the space in when the pieces are in with accessories from her showroom. I think that has been so key to the success – you need a room to be filled with not only the big pieces, but accessories which make it a personal space and make it look “done”. She can come over with lamps and side tables and fill a bookcase using my things and hers, so it looks lovely and complete after she is done.
I would highly recommend Home Gallery, and have absolutely love working with them. Lisa is an incredibly talented person in her field, is a pleasure to work with, is timely, responsive, and has a great personality. She is honest with me, and hears what I have to say, making sure the spaces in my home are not only perfectly designed but make us happy to live there. It sounds crazy, but I literally love each and every space she has designed and people who come over are in awe! But she designs space for people to live in, not show houses that you wouldn’t want to sit in the furniture. Lisa is a treasure, and I know you will be pleased if you work with her and her team on your own home. They never, ever disappoint!

I am happy to say I have had the privilege of working with Lisa and the Home Gallery team for several years on large and small projects. We are a custom home builder specializing in one of kind homes for some very wonderful clients. They all love working with Home Gallery. Lisa and the team have done everything from color selections, to tile, cabinet design, carpets, furniture, room layouts, plumbing selections and lighting for us, all to the clients’ satisfaction not hers. She is always flexible and presents both the clients’ ideas and her own allowing the client to make up their own minds given her directions.
The Home Gallery team’s talent has contributed to make many of these homes award winning projects. Lisa’s enthusiasm for what she does is contagious and her attention to detail is extremely helpful to a perfectionist like me.
She keeps me organized and works hard to keep within the clients budgets.
She is fun to work with I would highly recommend her. I could go on but I don’t want her to get over confident.
Use her, you will be very pleased.

We started off slowly, and asked Lisa and the Home Gallery to decorate our master bathroom and accessorize our foyer. Lisa and her staff met with us and were able to quickly figure out our taste. When we saw what an amazing job she did with those spaces, we later hired her for our living room. The room turned out to be stunning. People always comment how beautiful it is when they enter the house! When we did our addition, Lisa and her team helped with the plans, from the framing to the finish. She has now redone our kitchen, mudroom, family room and dining room and has turned our home into a showpiece! One important quality with Lisa is that she has always remained within the boundaries of our strict budget. There are no hidden surprises other than the spectacular work she has done with our home! I recommend her and the rest of the Home Gallery team to everyone.

All of our dealings with Lisa, Ed, and the staff of Home Gallery have always been extremely pleasant. They are there to please and they make us feel at home - like we are part of the family.
They were the best recommendations that we have ever received. Two separate friends of ours had steered us toward Lisa Davenport of Home Gallery for our decorating needs. We always said that we are missing that creative/design portion of our brains and that is just what Lisa's is made of. It took her no time at all to learn about our tastes and preferences and to combine them with her knowledge and ability to create a beautiful home for us. Whether she was working on one room or multiples, Lisa was able to present us with appealing options and also the ability to pick and choose from her selections to get exactly what we were looking for.
