**★★★★★ — HU-413239404, July 2022**

> The Team at The Design Gallery did a fabulous job helping me design my new kitchen. They were extremely professional and provided creative solutions to renovate an outdated kitchen. Dawn and her team were lock-step with my contractor to determine the most efficient and effective use of space and resources. I appreciate the extra care and time they took to bring the project to completion with check-ins along the way. I would highly recommend this business to others seeking to renovate and update!

**Comment from The Design Gallery:**

> Thank you so much!  We love doing kitchen remodels and are so glad you are thrilled with the finished design.  Not only are we grateful for wonderful clients but we are grateful to work with excellent contractors and vendors.

**★★★★★ — Kirk Nordmeyer, Feb. 2021**

> We bought a house and moved to Laurel Park, NC in 2019.  Our new house had not been updated for 25 years and was in desperate need of a remodel.  We had a general idea and direction for our design; however we needed an independent design perspective, technical advice and experience for our project.
>
> The Design Gallery team provided all this and more.  They listened to our ideas, suggested alternate concepts and we worked together to develop a beautiful design that we could not have envisioned on our own.
>
> We interviewed and ultimately selected a general contractor recommended by the design team.  We could not have asked for a better advocate to have on our side during the whole house construction project.
>
> The Design Gallery team personally reviewed the progress onsite at key milestones to ensure our vision stayed on track.
>
> We are now living in our newly remodeled home and couldn’t be happier.  Thank you Dawn and Betsy;   your team provided honest advice and you always looked after our best interest.  We consider you good friends

**Comment from The Design Gallery:**

> Thank you so much for your kind review and for your business!  We loved working with you and on your amazing project.  It is always great to work with creative clients.  Your home is beautiful and we look forward to receiving some design awards for the work later this year.

**★★★★★ — Coldwell Banker King, May 2020**

> Dawn Driskill and her team at the Design Gallery are amazing! My husband and I entrusted our real estate clients' home to her care, and not only did she transform their home into a stunningly elegant gem, floor to ceiling - paint, draperies, furniture, upholstery fabrics, and even art, but Dawn and her team did it with such incredible grace, kindness, attention to detail, and care for the needs and wants of the clients. We were incredibly impressed with her talents as well as her dedication to making the homeowners' dreams come true. We would recommend her to anyone wanting such stellar service!

**Comment from The Design Gallery:**

> Diane - Thank you so much for referring such a wonderful client and for giving me the opportunity to design their dream home.

**★★★★ — beverlyrothenberg, July 2014**

> I was very nervous about my first remodel. Kathleen was very patient and respected my cost limits. She helped me prioritize my wants so that I was able to remodel a kitchen, bathroom, great room and sitting room.
> She skillfully selected paint colors and made sure floors, tile, back splash, and fireplace texture flowed smoothly and tied together.
> She helped me determine what furniture to keep and how to place them. She even helped me select and hang pictures.
> I would recommend her and use her services again.

## Community Q&A

**Q: Ceiling Beams** *(in Photo Questions)*

Are the ceiling beams real wood or are they painted?  it's a great look and I would love to duplicate for my project.

A: The beams are real wood and are stained in a very dark color.

**Q: Drawer pulls?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where are the pulls from? Looking for similar understated bronze pulls.

A: I believe they are from Top Knobs

**Q: Interior slab doors** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where did you find the stain-grade slab interior doors?  Are the solid or hollow core?

A: They are solid.  These are Starmark cabinets.

**Q: Love this bathroom! Where did you get the wooden vanity mirror?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I want to purchase a mirror like this one for my master bathroom. I love everything about your design. I can't find one anywhere.

A: Believe it or not we found the mirrors at Ikea.

**Q: are the beams refinished or painted?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I believe you said they are refinished but they almost look painted. Could you tell me what you did with the wood beams in the ceiling?  We have tongue and groove ceiling that was painted all white when the house was built in the 50s. We’ve thought of doing what you did here but stripping the beams is a huge job. Wondering if paint would look ok and what you’ve done here is beautiful.

A: We painted the beams.

**Q: Where did you find your couch?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I love the style!

A: It already belonged to the client.
