Mr. John Dudinsky, The Chairman of the Building Committee for Treasure Island Tennis & Yacht Club,  states:

“My daughter is an Interior Designer so I think I have more insight than most people on what Interior Designers do. I would like to give congratulations to Contract Design Group, the Interior Designers of our beautiful new Tennis & Yacht Club.

We told them what we wanted, and they just made it happen. I could concentrate on the construction of our 29,000 Sq. Ft. Club; I didn’t have to spend my energies micro-managing the Interior Design.

Their President, Lynne Hawthorne, was very easy to talk to, and she really put her heart and efforts into our Club. Like many multi-million dollar construction projects, we had our share of budget challenges; the CDG Team just rolled with the budget punches without fuss or muss, making lemonade from lemons.”

Mr. Jody Simon, President of Simdag Construction Company, Developers of Luxury Condominiums on the West Coast Beaches, FL. said:

Lynne Hawthorne is so nice to everyone and gets the job done well. My most precious asset is my time, and everyone on the CDG Team respects that; they don’t waste my valuable time.

That’s why I asked them to do my personal home in Avilla, I appreciated the Commercial work CDG did for us, and then I saw what they accomplished for our own Condominiums, and for our Clients’ Condominiums.

They are so talented and great to work with; they do their job and I get to do mine.”
