What Our Clients Say About DesignLab

 

"We couldn't speak any higher about our experience with Joe and Brandon with DesignLab! We built a custom home and they were the perfect match for us to create the custom cabinet designs and unique stones we were looking for. The design and renderings allowed us to visualize how things would look and gave great suggestions as to what would work well together within our budget.

The finished product was even more beautiful than we expected. Between the kitchen and bathroom cabinets/counters, they brought our vision to life. Brandon assisted in providing follow up service to minor details that needed to be adjusted in a prompt and efficient manner. Highly recommend!"

"Jeff, Mr Lee and their team were a pleasure to work with. They made sure we were involved in all the decisions and they completed the project in a timely manner.

Bob Lanman

What Our Clients Say About DesignLab

"My dream closet. They even designed and constructed push-to-open segregated shoe cubbies all around the top perimeter in order to keep the clean aesthetic of the space I wanted and the shoes dust-free.

I've never felt so happy in a closet before! The once chaotic space isn't very big, but now it's simply stunning, complete with well-thought out design, expert construction, and beautiful finishes. It takes a little longer than some other companies, but it's definitely worth the wait. Shout outs to Oz and Memo for going the extra mile to ensure that everything is pristine and perfect."

Shakil Islam

What Our Clients Say About DesignLab

"We just finished a media room project with DesignLab. Their creative team helped us brilliantly transform the space from a simple movie room to a stunning, fun and useful entertainment and gaming environment.

First, they provided expert design advice sharing the latest ideas for materials that matched our fun and cool aesthetic vision. They also CAD tools that made it easy to model design alternatives and material options we were considering. They never pushed their own product ideas on us but they did provide examples of a large variety of design and material options available in the market today. They were extremely patient and supportive throughout the design process. It took us a while and o make final decisions and we are greatly appreciative for their unwavering support even after so many design sessions.

Once the design was finished, they placed the order, provided us a truthful and transparent forecast of when product would arrive and kept us informed through the wait on delivery updates. Surprisingly, given all the supply chain horror stories you hear, the product arrived on schedule. The materials were delivered straight to our house and the installation team was able to begin work a week later.

A very experienced team arrived at our house on Monday and completed the entire installation in less than one week. We were able to enjoy the media room that weekend. It is now such an amazingly delightful space we like to just sit in the room, relax and enjoy the visually pleasing and stunning environment.

We are so happy and satisfied with their work and truly enjoyed working with their helpful team."
