We had the pleasure of working with Dorian on a total house remodel. He designed a guest bathroom, master suite addition, open concept kitchen, fireplace, and choose a great color palate for the entire house. > Dorian was so helpful, knowledgeable, professional, and very pleasant. He made the process very enjoyable and personalied our style in every room. Dorian also assisted with securing a contractor. We have been so lucky and are extremely happy with the results. I would definitely use Dorian of Red Door Living again. **Comment from Dorian Bolick:** > Thank you so much for your kind words and so happy that you are as thrilled with the finished results. Can't wait to share the photoshoot pics with everyone. **★★★★★ — Cory Clemmons, Oct. 2018** > Dorian has helped us through two large remodels in 2015 and 2018. He takes a full service approach to design. He spent a great deal of time with my wife and I to learn our likes and tastes, which he translates to the style and character of each home. His designs are wonderful and we love everything he recommended to us. We also appreciate his fantastic ability to solution obstacles that always seem to happen in home projects. The end result we had in both projects were amazing. Dorian is a pleasure to work with and he will be our first call on the next remodel!!!!! **★★★★★ — pamici, Feb. 2016** > Doreen is excellent So knowledgeable and friendly. Love his work He took a lot of time to understand my style and took into account my budget. **★★★★★ — steve\_leslie, July 2015** > We were happy to see Red Door Living (RDL) open in LB many years ago, as we lacked any home furnishing boutiques in the area. We purchased several home accents and pieces of furniture and also learned that they offered design and decorating services. We turned to RDL when it was time to remodel our kitchen. Dorian took about a million magazine and Pinterest pictures and came up with a number of material/color schemes for us to choose from and worked with us to develop the kitchen design that would work with the space we had. We are so glad we hired a designer versus just relying on a contractor. It was definitely worth the money, and we were really happy. I would highly recommend RDL. Thanks. **Comment from Dorian Bolick:** > Thank you for the kind words. Your project was a real pleasure to work on and the outcome really fits your lifestyle. I trust you will enjoy the kitchen and other areas for years to come. **★★★★★ — rjinlb, May 2015** > Dorian's design work can be seen in many rooms of my house. They are all classy and elegant yet comfortable and homey. I have been working with him for years, and he always delights me with his innovative style and creative suggestions. Usually these are things I wouldn't never have thought of on my own. In addition to being wonderfully creative, he i a dream to work with and always reasonably priced. Take your home to the next level of sophistication with Dorian's designs! **★★★★★ — beckhall90, May 2015** > My husband and I hired Dorian Bolick to give us a much needed update and design for our living, dining, and family rooms. Dorian exceeded our expectations with his experience and knowledge, plus he was great fun to work with. He added new pieces and retained some of our old favorites to achieve a modern, sophisticated design that is comfortable and welcoming. We couldn't have been happier with our choice of Dorian and Red Door Living. We love the results! **★★★★★ — 1wittfamily, May 2015** > We just completed our second major remodeling project with Dorian. The first, two years ago, was a complete remodel of our kitchen and downstairs living space. Recently we completed our master bath and bedroom. Dorian has done a tremendous job in making our home beautiful. He is an absolute pleasure to work with, has fantastic ideas and a wealth of resources from which to draw. He is great at working within a budget and finding just the right materials from carpet, to paint and from carpet and fabrics to just the right pieces of furniture. We will definitely continue to work with Dorian and would recommend his service to anyone. **★★★★★ — glbarnett98, May 2015** > Dorian is the best in the business! Very dedicated, and knowledgeable of all aspects of design. I have been using his services for years, and will continue to. Timely, accurate, professional, and a great person. I highly recommend his company. > Greg Barnett **Comment from Dorian Bolick:** > Thank you for your kind review. Working with Clients like yourself is what makes my job so enjoyable. **★★★★★ — User, May 2015** > Dorian Bolick provides the best personalized service in all areas of home decoration. We have total confidence when Dorian takes on a job, large or small. We began our relationship over six years ago, when we downsized from a large house to a condo: Dorian was brilliant in his ability to transition artwork and treasured pieces to a new environment. He always keeps the customer's interest first, and is generous with his time.. **★★★★★ — jasonrpatterson18, May 2015** > dorian was a consummate professional. He took in everything we wanted in the finished project and incorporated that into cohesive designs for us to choose from. Without him i am sure we would have created a mish mash of decor but instead he provided us with three amazing looks of which the final product exceeded all our expectations. I cant recommend him him enough as he is incredibly talented and looks out for his clients best interest on both price and design while still managing to guide you in the right direction. We are constantly being asked who designed the room Dorian did and cant say enough how much we love it and appreciate the work he did. **★★★★★ — Christy Halladay, May 2015** > The Red Door Living team was excellent and fun to work with on the interior design of our home. During our initial meeting Dorian immediately understood our style and what we were going for in our newly remodeled home. We are very happy with RDL and will use them in the future as we continue more projects. **★★★★★ — jbtowns, May 2015** > I have used Red Door living for two of my homes and my business as well. They are professional and courteous. Dorian has fabulous taste is textures, colors and design. I cannot recommend then highly enough. I have recommended them to friends who have used them and had the same experience. It is nice to be able to turn your keys over to a professional group and not have to worry that things will be handled and everything will be just who you expected it to be and done according to plan. ## Selected projects - [San Francisco Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/san-francisco-residence-pj-vj~7469778) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - Description: Traditional San Francisco Residence updated to a modern family home - [Long Beach Mid-Century Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/long-beach-mid-century-kitchen-pj-vj~7469714) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - Description: Teak Wood Kitchen Cabinetry with coordinating wood flooring.
