Interior Design

Space planning. Selection of materials and finishes. Custom cabinetry and millwork. Furniture selections and layouts. Curated accessories. Color development. Art selection and placement. Lighting design. Design drawings and renderings. Construction drawings. Every detail considered. Every choice intentional.

Renovations and Remodeling

Full home renovations. Kitchens. Bathrooms. Basements. Room additions. Architectural feature upgrades. We manage the entire construction process — permits, procurement, scheduling, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical. You get the home you want, without becoming the general contractor. The home you want, built without the headaches.

new construction

New Construction

Partnering with architects and builders from the ground up. We work alongside your design and construction team from the earliest stages, handling interior space planning, architectural feature design, and all finish and fixture selections. We also manage lighting and plumbing specifications, construction drawings, and furniture and art procurement. The result is a home that feels considered and complete from day one.

Micro-Renovations

Not every project requires a full-scale renovation. Sometimes the most meaningful changes come from a lighter touch. We offer wallcoverings, drapery and window treatments, paint refreshes, lighting and hardware updates, new furnishings and accessories, and space planning adjustments. The result is a home that feels different without the construction timeline. Small changes, meaningful results, no construction required.

Designed around how you live

Your home should work for your mornings, your weekends, and the way your family actually moves through it. That is where every project starts. Not with a trend board, but with how you live and what is not working about your current space.

What Our Clients Say

From the first conversation to the final detail, our clients experience a thoughtful, collaborative design process. Hear directly from the homeowners who have trusted Modern Visions to reimagine their homes.

"Fabian and the team were fantastic to work with on our home remodel! We had no idea how involved a total interior and exterior renovation of a 4500 square foot home would be. Fabian went above and beyond in developing a new space plan, ACAD plans, finishes, furniture, and other design elements. The finished renovation is everything we could have hoped for and more! A dated home built in the 1980s is now a completely modern home with an open floor plan. Fabian and his team were very collaborative in listening to our needs and developing a plan to fit our style. The attention to detail was incredible. We are very happy with our choice to use Fabian and team and would highly recommend them to others."

Full Home Renovation / Kirkland, WA

A quote by ChatGPT reading: 'You are making a difference every day, whether you can see it or not.'

"I met Fabian Borre last summer when he designed and remodeled the kitchen and main living spaces of my Seattle home. Throughout the makeover, he carefully considered my input and imparted confidence. I enjoyed making decisions together because we think like artists and he understands the nuances of color, shape, and space. He came up with color schemes and styles based on what I value, namely my art collection. Also, my house was built in 1960 and I wanted to maintain some retro qualities. Fabian presented perfect design concepts and paint colors that I never would have come up with on my own, and they were within my budget. Fabian is like a life coach. I am very grateful to have found Fabian Borre. Fabian’s services are above and beyond what I had ever hoped for."

Kitchen + Living Spaces / Seattle, WA

A quote by ChatGPT reading: 'You are making a difference every day, whether you can see it or not.'

"My referral for Fabian may sound too good to be true and it is 100% accurate. I have no incentive to write this other than my desire for Fabian to be successful because of our positive experience with him - which is unlike any other service provider we ever hired. The time he spent and the attention to detail was fantastic - I will say the greatest value we have received for design services. Fabian brought in design plans for our place, worked with the contractors on our behalf, helped us sort out our own design aesthetic, how to organize our space, placement of our art and photos, and then added the final touches to pull everything together. He exceeded my expectations by miles. My advice for other people wanting interior design help is to catch him now while you can."

A quote by ChatGPT reading: 'You are making a difference every day, whether you can see it or not.'

"Fabian Borre worked tirelessly on our project, with great attention to detail. He was patient, and willing to keep working with my husband and me until we got exactly what we wanted. Our bathroom remodel looks superb – we particularly like the tile Fabian picked with its distinctive appearance. He also managed to find us an incredible bathtub to that we can actually stretch out and soak in that fits a very small space. His work is of the highest quality. He also helped us design our living/dining area, finding unique and affordable furniture that really works for the space, as well as selecting the flooring and wall colors."

— Cathy Tashiro

A quote by ChatGPT reading: 'You are making a difference every day, whether you can see it or not.'

"From start to finish, Fabian and team coddled me through the entire renovation process. Fabian is a careful listener who executed perfectly, bringing to life my vision of a more modern home with better use of space. His impeccable attention to detail is beyond what is expected, narrowing in on fine details like custom drapery, rug pattern, and art placement. I absolutely love my "new" home. ​"

— Marlena Parker

Full Renovation / Seattle, WA

A quote by ChatGPT reading: 'You are making a difference every day, whether you can see it or not.'

"We met Fabian Borre through a friend who had a great experience with his work. Initially, we hired Fabian to help with a color consultation for our house and ended up working with him on our master bathroom and kitchen remodel, in addition to designing our children's bedrooms (he individually worked with each of our children), living room, dining room, and office. Fabian also helped with interior painting color design. End results: fabulous! Fabian was great to work with. He has an amazing ability to translate my vague concepts into beautiful colors and designs. He worked very closely with the contractors so that I never had to be in the middle. We would highly recommend Fabian."

— Mutita and Chris Honsberger

Multi-Room Design / Seattle, WA

A quote by ChatGPT reading: 'You are making a difference every day, whether you can see it or not.'

"Since this was my very first remodel, I was unsure and concerned about certain things. Fabian was always there to help answer my questions and to provide suggestions. He was good at managing communication and tasks with the general contractor. My place wasn't very functional. He helped make my space more functional by recommending furniture that's more size appropriate as well as offering storage/organizing tips. I enjoyed that I was able to pick the finishes so my place is very personalized. During one of my visits to a tile and finishing store, I was overwhelmed by the number of options. Fabian understood the style I was going for and narrowed down my choices to about five, which helped in picking the one I wanted. Overall, I really enjoyed working with Fabian on my condo's remodel project, and I would definitely recommend him to any of my family or friends! Thanks Fabian, we love our new place!"
