Kobby was/is AMAZING!!! He has completed interior design projects for our master bedroom and bath and most recently our family room. I was so impressed with his attention to detail and vision for how to pull everything together (even when I couldn't see it). In addition to being so much fun and full of life, Kobby brought a current and chic vibe to our home all the while being respectful of our budget. He is extremely professional and his love for interior design shines through. We can't thank Kobby enough and highly recommend him to anyone!!!

We are having the most wonderful experience working with Kobby Akuffo at Mason Royale Designs. He is an outstanding interior designer, offering creative ideas and visions for our space. In addition to his top professional side, Kobby is personable, fun, engaging, and very insightful, as well as very sensitive to our input and needs as his client. His vast experience adds to producing amazing, beautiful and functional results. We have enjoyed working with Kobby and look forward to future home design projects.

This firm is owned and operated by one of the most talented interior designers I have ever met. He is professional, personable and incredibly honest and perceptive when discussing design ideas. He listens to a client's vision and then provides sound advice on how to bring that to life with tweaks as needed. He is also a Colorist so is amazing at helping clients pick out colors that evoke the right mood, emotion in a given room. He also helped me pick out great paint colors, lighting and wall paper for different rooms in my house. I will definitely retain Mason Royale Designs for my future design projects.

Just a quick note to let you know how happy we are with your design in our recently purchased home here in Dubuque,Iowa. From the time you spent with us to ensure you understood our goals to the extra effort you delivered in driving the 170 miles to Dubuque to ensure everything worked, you continually exceeded our expectation. Your designs offer such a remarkable flexibility, an impressive combination.
Edie & Peter SoraparuChicago
Kobby, I love all the pieces which truely captures our lifestyle and taste. The floor plan is amazing. I have designated the living room as “my room”. Who would have thought shopping for one chair would lead us to designing our whole home. Your work speaks for itself.Your customer service and follow up calls are a great touch

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kobby on 2 projects. He’s nothing short of fantastic! Kobby listened to my ideas and put together a beautiful design. He has an incredible design talent. Kobby is very easy to work with and ALWAYS puts his clients first! I’d highly recommend Kobby to anyone without hesitation.

My husband and I hired Kobby twice to help with the interior designs in our living room, family room and bathroom. There are not enough kinds words to describe how wonderful he is. Kobby is dependable, fun to work with, extremely committed to seeing projects through to completion and beyond talented. Not only did Kobby personally shop with me at a few different stores but he also spent ample time at our house to ensure shipments arrived on time and the furniture was setup correctly. We also used contractors that he recommended and they did a phenomenal job as well. Our home looks amazing and we could not be happier. I cannot recommend Kobby enough for your interior design needs. He is absolutely terrific and I am confident you will be as thrilled with your results as we are.

Kobby is one of a kind, a true gem! He’s a gifted designer with a keen sense of style. My husband and I were fortunate to meet Kobby after working with a designer who didn’t grasp our vision. We knew we were in good hands with Kobby after our first meeting. He took the time to get to know us and took our lifestyle into consideration when developing our design. He aspired to make our space not only beautiful, but functional. He’s intuitive, engaging and we shared a lot of laughs along the way. He always worked within our budget. He never made us feel pressured to go with his selections and offered options until we were satisfied. He was with us every step of the way and took care of every detail of our project. We had such a great experience with Kobby and wouldn’t entrust anyone else with our home! Kobby isn’t a 5-star designer, he’s a 10 star!! Best of the best by far! I would highly recommend Kobby-a true talent.

Kobby was so amazing to work with; he came into our home and understood our needs to change our space, and the balanced that against our family lifestyle. He was straightforward, honest and a pleasure to work with. He always responded to my texts and phone calls and we worked together on building our concept. I can't wait to work with him on my next home decorating project!

Thank you so much for designing the interiors of our home. We love the colors that go together so well with the furniture. Thank you for displaying creativity and talent, the results are stunning. We love being in our home now; it is elegant, comfortable and functional. We know for sure it wouldn't turn out this way without you. - Dmitriy, Tatyana, the girls and Mango.

Kobby is absolutely phenomenal. We worked with him to furnish and do all interior design elements when we bought our single-family home, including designing our master bathroom which was a total remodel. We could not be more pleased! Kobby takes the time to understand who you are, your tastes/preferences, and your lifestyle. He understands the need to balance form/function/value. He has a great eye for color, textures, scale. I have very high standards and little extra time given a demanding job - and to say Kobby exceeded my expectations is an understatement. He was always efficient but not rushed when it came to making choices and works so collaboratively with other vendors/contractors/etc. Our home is now beautiful all around - every room came together amazingly and I cannot say enough good things about working with Mason Royale Designs.

We bought a 5,800 sq. ft house and started looking for a designer to keep the house in order. We were extremely lucky to meet a highly professional and simply extraordinary person, Mr. Kobby Akuffo. He made all the interior and exterior house paint decisions. Came up with furnishings for the whole house, including the delivery, inspection and placement of the furniture. Picked up all the carpets and rugs. Picked up and helped with the placement of our pictures and photographs. Designed the backyard and furnished it. And all this was done with extraordinary taste. On top of this, he is an unusually pleasant, polite and understanding person, who immediately responds to all requests and answers all questions. He worked superbly with all the contractors who worked in the house. Kobby deserves the highest praise as a professional and as an unusually intelligent, patient person.
Alex VyboischikLake Forest
Kobby was absolutely fantastic to work with and I could not stress that enough. We worked with him on our Family Room and casual eating area and rehired him immediately for our formal areas. He listened to what we were looking for and allowed us to be part of the process as much as we wanted it to be. He cares about his work and making sure you are happy!
Kristen DuBay
I've worked with Kobby on several projects over the past decade and he always delivers. Most recently, he helped design my company's new office space and did a phenomenal job - from furniture, to flooring, to color schemes the office is a place where our employees truly *want* to be every day, thanks to Kobby's work. But the best thing I can say about Kobby is that he cares about his clients. He truly wants them to be happy with the end result...he takes great pride in his work and he wants you to feel the same way. He wants each client to feel they received great value from the time he put in to your project. He is an excellent communicator from start to finish...an affable, empathic person. If I could give him 10 stars I would.
CW Grabiner
Kobby was such a pleasure to work with. He was professional, ultra knowledgeable, and very involved in the project from the very beginning. Communicating with Kobby was always easy, and he brought some incredible ideas to the table that we simply would have never had the guts to do if not for him. Kobby’s design turned our house into a dream Home. I have been recommending Kobby to all my friends without any reservation!
Feliks
Koby is the most pleasant and easy to work with designer I have ever utilized. He’s attention to detail and eye for design is a gift. I would strongly recommend anyone looking to design their home to their own personality to partner with Koby and Mason Design
