They helped design our new kitchen floorplan, which was a complete gut job and total renovation. We are very pleased with the final project and design. **Comment from DB Design Center:** > Amber, Thank you for the review. We love the kitchen as well and I am so glad that you two were open to ideas to change the foot print, windows and doors. The new kitchen looks great and hopefully we can arrange to get pictures. Also, having a great installer like Mark makes a world of difference. > > Please let us know if you need anything else. Caroline or I will be in touch to see if you want us to schedule a photographer. > > Doug Barrante ### All 9 reviews **★★★★★ — HU-738996290, Nov. 2024** > Our designer (Kim) was excellent and spent literally months going over details to make sure the project was perfect. We were new to the area and she helped us find a contractor and appliances. **★★★★★ — Kristen Whalen, Sept. 2024** > We have used DB Design Center for multiple large scale renovation projects in our home. What I love about working with Kim, Doug, and the rest of the team at DB is that they truly help manage the project from end to end, ensuring a seamless transition from the design phase to construction phase. Kim created absolutely beautiful designs for our kitchen, first floor, powder room, and primary bathroom - she was incredibly patient as we explored options and crafted visions for the spaces based on our preferences and budget. Doug and his whole team are genuinely committed to ensuring their customers are happy and completely satisfied. We have recommended DB to friends in the past, and will continue to do so! You will be in great hands with this team! **Comment from DB Design Center:** > Kristen, Thank you for the comments. Your entire house is beautiful and the changes to the kitchen, laundry, mud room, powder room, and other areas turned out incredibly well. I am excited to see how your master bath turns out. From the designs I saw it is going to be spectacular. > Doug Barrante **★★★★★ — HU-82567507, Aug. 2024** > DB Design and Caroline made my kitchen remodel so easy. Caroline picked out pieces that were perfect for my house and style while staying in my price range. My kitchen turned out amazing and I am very happy I chose to work with DB Design. **★★★★★ — Debbie & Dave Stocklas, Aug. 2024** > I would definitely recommend DB Design for any kitchen project. We worked directly with Caroline McCrea, a lead interior designer within this firm. She listened to what I wanted in my kitchen and included all of that in her design. She provided our contractor with detailed drawings that made his installation problem free. Caroline ordered all the materials and took care of making sure they were delivered on time. She kept in constant communication with my contractor so I didn’t have to worry about anything. This was a major project for us. We took down a wall and totally changed the footprint of our entire kitchen. DB Design made the process easy. **★★★★★ — Courtney, July 2024** > I can not recommended DB design enough! They made this major kitchen renovation so easy for us and were so patient when we changed our mind on ideas time and again. They took our vision and made it a reality. They were professional, timely, creative, and responsive. We never use to gather as a family in the kitchen and it is now truly the heart of our home. I’m so grateful to the team at DB Design and can’t wait to start our next project with them! **Comment from DB Design Center:** > Courtney, > > You and Matt were fantastic to work with and we loved your ideas. Your entire home is beautiful and the new kitchen now fits right in. Enjoy it for many years to come. Kim and I have ideas for the Speak Easy and we hope we can help with that project too. > > Thank you, > > Doug **★★★★★ — Jerry Fedell, July 2024** > Worked with Doug and the team doing a complete remodel of my first floor. Expanded my kitchen and opened up a wall. The whole team was awesome to work with, especially when considering we had to navigate the covid lockdowns of 2020. The redesign turned my late-80's kitchen design into an incredibly useful modern kitchen. Doug and Kim came up with some great ideas to utilize space that I would have never thought possible. The whole team there really helped me through the process, including Abbey who kept on top of a few of the covid related shipping issues. Everyone that walks into my place immediately comments on how nice my kitchen is. It really is the focal point of my house. When I have gatherings, we almost never leave the kitchen! My son bought a place in Feb 24. He wanted to redo the kitchen. Needless to say DB did a great job with his kitchen too. **Comment from DB Design Center:** > If I recall correctly we explored several design configurations and the one we settled on worked out perfectly. We still need to get some professional pictures! Thank you for letting DB Design do your kitchen. **★★★★★ — HU-765494372, July 2024** > DB design completely transformed my 1960, dysfunctional kitchen space into an unbelievably beautiful, super functional centerpiece of my home. > They measured, designed the layout, and sourced all cabinetry, appliances, and countertops. Everything came together stunningly. I wouldn’t even consider using any other company if I ever do additional remodeling of my home. **Comment from DB Design Center:** > We love the kitchen too. The your house called for a luxury European kitchen and I think it works extremely well with the expansive windows to view the pond, and the open floorplan so you can enjoy the new fireplace and your guest while making your incredible beverages! The staff is eagerly waiting for the completion of the stone work so we can have the house warming party. **★★★★★ — HU-396323844, July 2024** > Absolutely terrific job. Start to finish Doug and his employees have kept me updated and extremely friendly throughout the entire process. They also turned my old outdated kitchen into a piece that looks like it should be in a showroom. Could not recommend them enough. **Comment from DB Design Center:** > Thank you. I am excited to see what kind of meals you can create on your new Pitt Burners! I'll have to get some photos so people can see how they look. You are only the 3rd in Pittsburgh to have them. They are huge in Europe but we are always a couple of years behind in the Burgh! ## Selected projects - [Natural Is Beautiful](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/natural-is-beautiful-pj-vj~7486551) - Location: Mars, PA - Photos: 22 - Description: This Natural Is Beautiful kitchen remodel showcases how thoughtful design and quality materials can transform an everyday kitchen into a light‑filled, functional heart of the home tailored to modern living.
