We had a fantastic experience working with Anna on the design and construction of our basement level living area. From the time we hired her, Anna helped us to create a lower level space that blended perfectly with our upstairs and was also fresh and interesting on a new level. She created a functional, beautiful and tasteful area for our family to spend time together in comfort.
Anna brought a tremendous amount of creativity and suggested colors/layouts/ideas that I had never considered before. Her ideas are fresh and relevant. She was able to capture the personality of our family and implement a design reflective of our personal style.
Both my husband and I work outside the home and didn't have the time nor inclination to be involved in much of the design process. We were interested in having a 'turn key' space.
Anna was on sight over seeing every detail of the construction. She was present for furniture deliveries, paint jobs, framing, installed all accessories and even tailored the window coverings. She did a remarkable job with each task from beginning to end. Anna also managed much of the communication between the contractor and my family. Anna was aware of the time deadline we had and she diligently ensured it was completed on time.
If you are interested in hiring a pleasant, energetic, fresh and professional designer Anna is your girl.
Thanks for an awesome job lady!!!

If you are looking for an enjoyable design experience without pressure, you’ve found the person. Anna made the decision making process easy for me. If something I thought I wanted didn’t fit the overall theme, she explained why and offered new ideas, and we’d end up finding a solution that turned out to be better than my original idea. The process was about me, and about what I wanted, but Anna brought it together to a cohesive plan and an outcome that fulfilled my vision.

Anna exposed me to new styles and interesting combinations of textures. Perhaps most importantly, I learned that styles I coveted could be achieved within my budget. Once I got over my initial hesitance, I explored pieces from antique stores and second hand shops. This gave me access to better quality pieces and left me with more to spend on my new obsession, original art. I’ve found entirely new meaning in art. I can’t wait to buy more. I have a new understanding that art has to speak to me, not match a room. Anna made the design process enjoyable and gave me a space I love. I whole-heartedly recommend Anna for your interior design needs.

Several years ago, Anna helped me select materials for my kitchen remodel, and she opened my eyes to textiles and color combinations I would never have considered--to amazing effect! She was able to identify and enhance my personal design style with a few thoughtful questions and suggestions. When we moved into our new home, I asked her to help me create the living/dining space of my dreams. Mission accomplished. The space gets rave reviews from everyone who visits. Anna is charming, brilliant and talented. Nebraska is ridiculously lucky to have The Iconic Space and Anna.

Anna Harms designed my loft apartment in the Old Market of Omaha and I couldn't be more pleased with the final design and service.

Anna exudes taste and class and this is reflected in her impeccable designs. The pieces sourced were incredible and surprisingly affordable. Using her service actually saved me money because I didn't pay full price on lots of items that were cleverly curated.

I hired Anna to help with the finishing touches throughout our home. Her assistance was needed to "complete" several areas that became neglected and daunting. She effortlessly and elegantly brought in natural elements and modern flair, creating "iconic spaces." She was a gem to work with. I couldn't be happier with the finished product.

Anna has impeccable taste and her model for working with people is highly engaging, considerate and strategic. She is practical in terms of a client's budget and creates a respectful process that challenges the assumptions most people have about working with designers.

I cannot recommend Anna highly enough. If you have a design project and are seeking a partnership to turn your house into your home (truly, your home)...look no further than Anna.

The Iconic Space is amazing. I recently purchased an older home, and from day one, I had dozens of ideas regarding furniture, colors, wall art, and so on. But finding the time to organize my ideas and figure out the best use of my new space was a challenge.

Anna to the rescue! She came to my home to share ideas, and in no time at all I was reviewing multiple layouts and 3D drawings of my living room and dining room. Once we agreed on a game plan, she found me amazing furniture and art pieces that matched my style and budget. She also provided color and decor recommendations. The Iconic Space truly has united my vision and Anna's expertise to make my home look and feel original. I can’t wait to hire Anna to redesign my master bedroom!

Anna transformed the feeling of our home, while staying within in our modest budget and helping our vague ideas become bold statements we are so proud of. Our house finally feels like it is ours!

I can't imagine working with anyone but Anna! I really liked and appreciated how she spent so much time up front getting to know my style and preferences, what I valued and what impression I wanted our home to leave on others. She helped me think differently about space and color and how complementary pieces could be added to give rooms the look and feel that I wanted. She was always professional and always worked to find the best balance between quality and price. Her style is impeccable and her standards for workmanship are unparalleled. I have recommended her to everyone I know. She delivers all that she promises and more. She is simply extraordinary!

We were thrilled to have the privilege of working with Anna on our new home. She greatly exceeded our expectations and we couldn't be happier with the results. Her patience, enthusiasm, and expertise were invaluable, and she was cognizant of our budget throughout the process. Her holistic process of working with clients codifies a meaningful roadmap from which to draw inspiration and ideas based on life experiences, passions, and interests.

One of the most valuable aspects of working with Anna is that her business model does not include mark-ups on furniture, so we were not steered/pressured towards any particular manufacturer or retailer, which provided the ultimate flexibility in terms of balancing quality and price. We loved that she helped us determine where we wanted to splurge and where we wanted to save, without sacrificing quality, style, or budget. We were impressed with her instincts for cutting costs without cutting corners.

My significant other and I each had our own unique tastes going into the project, and had a number of impasses. Anna not only blended them together into a cohesive style, but did so in a way that didn't compromise the vision that each of us brought to the table.

Regardless of the size, scope, and budget of your project, you will be in good hands. We have never had anyone enter our home without commenting on how much they love the style and furnishings. Needless to say, we were impressed the entirety of her work, and are lucky to have this caliber of design professional in Omaha.

OUTSTANDING!! We’re a pretty diverse family with a lot of varying opinions. Anna Harms navigated with ease and provided a perfect blend of what everyone wanted out of our project. I LOVE what she did and still tell her how much I’m floored by how beautiful it turned out. She was not only spot on with design, but in her flexibility, estimates, communication and professionalism of her contractors were great. I can not recommend her enough and am about to hire her again for a little help! Call her, you’ll love her!

If you are looking for a standout designer I highly recommend Anna! Anna has a way of taking a mundane room and making it look bold and rich! I absolutely loved working with her on my kitchen project. She offered several different design options based off what I was looking for. She also took the time to explain to me how every element she picked out would tie my room together. I have worked with many designers in my day...Anna is by far the most patient, caring and unique designer I have ever worked with!

The Iconic Space delivered an exceptional service to our boutique store remodel. Anna provided a level of insight and ingenuity not found with other institutions. The company truly helped us create what we didn't even know we needed. They are the measure of a great design firm.
