David Cieslak and I have worked together on various projects over the past year. One being a holiday design event held at our former North Avenue location in Chicago. David initiated and coordinated the event along with the store staff and corporate personnel. We continue to work together on projects to further promote Z Gallerie home furnishings. David approaches projects in a professional and creative manner. His "team player" approach would be of value to you, or anyone you know in need of Interior Design/Restyling services.

I have worked with David Cieslak for the past 3 years and have hired him as a designer and merchandiser for numerous interior design projects my company has had in the Chicago area. I also had the privilege of hiring David as a behind the scenes design coordinator for the entire third season of the television show “Home Made Simple”. In this position he was my right hand man and jack of all trades
creating and implementing creative décor solutions for the show. I highly recommend David. His creativity, punctuality, professionalism and work ethic are of the highest standards. He is a pleasure to work with and he comes through time after time with excellent work. His versatile sense of style and
excellent eye are such an asset to his clients and partners.
Warm Regards,

I am writing to you about my experience working with David Cieslak. I met David while working on the Home Made Simple television show. I was an on-camera culinary host, and David was an assistant to Nadia Geller, the décor host.
Throughout the 3 months we worked on the show, I found that while David was an absolute pleasure to have on set. He fulfilled and then exceeded expectations, consistently over-delivering on any task he was asked to perform. Although he was not a direct member of the culinary team, he considered his role to be part of the overall team, and was frequently found helping out in the kitchen before I even realized I needed his help.
If you have the opportunity to work with David, though you’ll enjoy his professionalism and team player-approach, what is most impressive is David’s creativity. He has a can-do attitude, and is always offering clever to solutions to what may seem like unsolvable problems. He offers a smile, a laugh, and a comment that will take the wind out of the sails of the most difficult problem.
My only regret is that I live in New York and David is in Chicago! I would relish the opportunity to work with him again, and give him the highest of recommendations.
Sincerely,

David's work helped make my transition to condominium living seamless. His judgment in designing a floor plan appropriate to the size and shape of a space is superb. He selected beautifully coordinated, high-quality furniture, colors and accessories for my new home that fell well within my budget. Always mindful of his clients' wishes, David's customer service skills are top-notch.
His easy manner and friendly nature would fairly ensure a successful relationship with any client encountered. I hold his work as a designer in the highest regard.

I located David through a referral from Simply Living. David was courteous, professional, and creative. David was able to help provide me with tips on painting and choosing the right style of drapes. David also came to my home and helped me install the hardware for my drapes and hang some paintings. Overall, I loved working with David and would recommend him highly.

I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful accessories you brought over this weekend. Connor’s lamp is a huge hit. He likes to count all of the vehicles on the lampshade and he insists on leaving it turned on when he falls asleep at night!
Cheers,
