Jan impressed me with her appreciation for all interiors, her energy and passion for exceeding client goals. My style is not at all modern or trendy but rather classic, colorful, comfortable and highly functional. Jan understood my dream to create a gorgeous guest bath that would stand the test of time. Jan's vision and material selection exceeded anything I could have ever imagined. She kept within my budget while advising me on what key elements were truly worth investing in. She found the perfect wallpaper design in all of my favorite colors. She pulled together a gorgeous blend of floor & shower tiles, stone, cabinets with unique finish, lighting and accessories. My bathroom turned out stunning and more functional than I could have imagined. Jan and I are now life-long friends. I highly recommend her for any design and décor needs and look forward to working with her again soon! Michelle N. Danville CA

Not only did it show extraordinarily well and receive a ton of compliments, her interior design techniques had me saving all of the photos for future reference. Each space was the perfect blend of cozy and modern combined with big, beautiful splashes of transitional flare. As soon as I saw what she'd done, I immediately wanted to move back in. Last but not least, her pricing was extraordinarily reasonable compared to other staging companies. So if you're looking to have someone stage your space, act fast and give her a call. I'm sure her pricing will double or triple with time because she's is absolutely worth every penny.

My wife and I used Julie to remodel our kitchen and 2 bathrooms in our house and had an amazing…read moreexperience. We had never owned a home or done a remodel previously and Julie was great at taking us step-by-step through the process. Using some inspiration from our Pintrest boards, she came up with designs unique to our house and aesthetic. Julie ordered all the materials on our behalf and identified a fantastic contractor who carried out the remodel with Julie's oversight. Julie took so much of the process off our plates, which was great because my wife was pregnant at the time haha. I've attached a few photos of the kitchen before the remodel and then when it was almost finished. I've also included some pictures of one of the shower areas before and after remodel. I would include more professional pics post remodel but our attention was quickly subsumed with a tiny human! Overall, Julie was so great at taking control over so much of the process while always listening to our feedback and suggestions. I can't recommend Julie enough.

We worked with interior designers in the past and feel that Carole exceeds our expectations. 1. She has vision. She was able to create a furniture layout plan that we would never think of. Her thinking was outside the box. 2. She spends lots of time with you without "clock watching". 3. Face to face visits and personal attention. 4. She is patient and really listens to our needs 5. She knows what looks right and what doesn't look right and isn't afraid to voice her opinion. 6. Warranty - very important.

The craftsmanship and quality of the work are fantastic, and the finished spaces look beautiful. It's clear they care deeply about design details and the overall outcome of the project. Like many large renovations, we did experience a few missteps along the way related to coordination and timing. However, what stood out to us was that the team remained engaged and focused on making sure we were ultimately happy with the result. They were willing to have open conversations with us and worked with us to find solutions so we could close the project out in a positive way. Renovations can be stressful, but we're very glad we chose Douglah Designs and love how our home turned out.

Douglah review After…read moreliving in our house for over 25 years, we decided to redo our kitchen - appliances, cabinets, floors, countertops, lighting, etc. We also wanted to update our laundry room and hallway bathroom. We were looking for a business that would handle everything from design to installation. We met with Leila Douglah and her staff in their showroom in Lafayette. Fast forward 2 years, and we now have a wonderful kitchen, laundry room and bathroom, and except for the purchase of the major appliances (refrigerator, ovens and cooktop), we never had to work with anyone else. We are very happy with the results, and while there were some snags in the construction process (that may or may not have been partly Douglah's fault), the entire process went professionally and smoothly. Douglah Designs is an all-in-one design/construction service. As you might expect, the total cost of the kitchen remodel was probably higher than if we did more of the legwork ourselves and used multiple vendors. But there are certainly advantages to offset the increased expense. The project was seamless and professional. Many of the craftsmen that Douglah Design uses are employees, not contracted. There is no finger pointing between designers and contractors; they all work together to use make things work. To us, the extra expense was definitely worth it. My wife and I are pretty picky when it comes to design, and Leila and her staff were very patient with us. We did have a similar esthetic, so we were usually on the same page from the start. Leila and Rachel Steely had a level of experience and industry knowledge that was a great advantage. Watching them work on the design and materials selection was very impressive and gave us high confidence that they REALLY knew what they were doing. As we realized, designing a kitchen is actually quite a complicated process, with thousands of details that we would not have even known about, let alone been able to address. But the designs and plans handled every detail and issue beautifully. Douglah recommended vendors and products with which they had experience and confidence, which saved us the trouble of having to vet each product, and which gave us confidence in the products. One limitation of working with Douglah Designs is that you are somewhat limited to products and vendors with which they are familiar and confident, so that may constrain your choices (and which may increase the cost of the project). But we felt that limited choices and extra cost were outweighed by the dependability and quality of the products that Douglah recommended. Overall, we were very happy working with Douglah Designs. They are not for everyone - if you have a different esthetic, or a different budget, or want more control over the process, you probably would be happier elsewhere. But if you want a top notch design and installation and have the budget, we highly recommend Douglah Designs.
