Amanda is brilliant. Her sense of design, attention to every last detail, and workmanship is exquisite. I had the pleasure of working with her on all of the window treatments and drapes in my new home. Working with her on this project from the brainstorming stage to the moment of instillation was an absolute joy. She is endlessly creative and resourceful, offering insights and ideas I simply would never have thought of. It was clear she applied the same care to this job that she would have any personal artistic process — or addition to her own living space. She has a clear, keen way of imagining space that can turn any room into an unforeseen paradise. Her beautiful work is only matched by her radiant and kind personality. Amanda is at the top of my list for any design related question or project. A brilliant woman!

Amanda was so helpful when my fiancé and I moved in together. Effortlessly blending our individual styles while bringing new and exciting options to the table. During a time that often feels stressful and overwhelming, Amanda helped keep us on schedule and turn our small bungalow into a home.

Amanda designed and implemented an amazing yoga studio and garden space for me in 2017 at a lovely property I owned in Mar Vista. It was an incredible space and I truly believe this is the reason why my property sold so fast.
She was practical and helped cut costs where necessary, and had so many clever ideas. She helped me through the whole process from beginning to end. Even hand sewing on the finishing details on the outside curtains herself. She also had a wonderful, reliable, trustworthy handyman she works with.
Amanda is honest, sweet natured, reliable and hardworking. I would have no hesitation recommending her to anyone. She is also my yoga student and anything she puts her mind to she does wholeheartedly and gives 100%.

Amanda Cram did incredible work redesigning my recording studio. With incredible taste, love of details and sense for the overall, she gave me different options for every piece of furniture and accessory and great consulting to make decisions. The execution was uncomplicated and precise. I recommend Amanda to everybody who wants to bring the best vibe out of their house or work environment.

Amanda is such a joy to work with. I have never met anyone who works with such care for her clients than her. She treated my space like it was her own and put love and creativity into every last detail. Her energy is contagious and her eye for design is unparalleled. She has the magic touch to transform every room and corner into a functional, comfortable, work of art. I refer her to everyone I know. I can’t recommend Astraea Design & Build enough.

I was referred to Amanda and worked with her across states. We did everything digitally, and she made the process extremely easy. I am a salon owner who had no idea where to start with a complete renovation. I explained to Amanda that I needed her help maximizing the use of our small space. Prior to the renovation we were feeling on top of each other, stations were too close together and the salon felt claustrophobic. Amanda took measurements and very quickly turned around a design deck for us to work off of. I had a very particular custom idea to integrate live wood in the salon from floor to ceiling on our back wall. Amanda went above and beyond to include this on her design deck while also putting her creative spin on the wood design.
When I opened her design deck and saw what she created I was moved to tears. Her artistic touch was incredibly beautiful and blew me away. She recommended beautiful materials, furnishings, fixtures and lighting in the salon that was in alignment with the brand. She was very attentive to my needs and answered my questions in a prompt manner. I had so many oddball questions, changed my mind often, and she was so patient and understanding. She made our renovation process incredibly easy and we did not have to come back for second questioning once we implemented everything. Her measurements were perfect and the salon feels twice the size.
Our clients have commented on the space and how much they love it and how beautiful it is. Most people say “wow, it feels so much bigger in here”, and this was our goal. I will recommend Amanda again and again as she is very knowledgeable and talented in this field. Anyone would be incredibly lucky to work with her.

Working with Amanda on our numerous commercial retail boutique locations (4 to be exact) has been a pleasurable and streamlined experience. I know I am in the best hands, and don’t have to worry about the specifics, because Amanda already has it handled.
Not only does she go above and beyond in translating our ideas and adding her expert input, she makes sure everything is as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing for each unique space she has designed for us. She ensures are brand identity is clear in her design with each location. We are now known for many of her unique design features.
She sources the best materials, including furnishings, flooring, lighting, custom cabinetry, etc, with competitive pricing. She brings a unique eye to every project. People compliment our spaces on a daily basis, and I can’t wait to design our next boutique with her in Bozeman, Montana in 2024!
She is an expert in her field, professional, and most of all a delight to work with. Amanda with her artistic eye, expertise and professionalism, and especially her positive energy are what every major project needs.

Amanda Cram is an experienced interior designer and I hired her to do the interior design and re-model of a store my client had on Main Street. Amanda listened to all of our aesthetic wants, and helped with our storage and fixture needs. She executed on time and within budget. She also helped us choose furniture, materials, and imprinted our branding throughout the space. She's great at transforming spaces into something spectacular! Before we knew it everyone was blown away with how immaculate it looks.

We used Amanda Cram and Tim Ecelbarger with Astraea Design & Build to redesign our Winter Park Condo. They took an old AV closet we no longer needed and turned it into a functional and beautiful bar space, as well as adding an new area to the kitchen and custom building out some closets and wine storage area. Amanda also helped us furnish our new home. They were great to work with and we love the results.

Cannot say enough good things about Amanda Cram, Astraea Design Build who assisted us with interior design and space planning in our new home. Not to mention she was by my side during the entire moving process! She not only has a great eye and style but can work with any budget. From full remodels to a simple refresh, she can help select paint colors and accessories. She had great ideas and helped us repurpose many items that I would have discarded and replaced.
