Early in my career I discovered my clients appreciated my help navigating the maze of choices involved in their redecorating, remodeling or new construction projects. My personal experience building 3 new homes in 7 years helped me understand how demanding the process could be and how I could best help them make the process easier and more enjoyable. Since then I have worked with my clients from the initial stages of their interior design projects, often conferring with their architects, to ensure the end result fits their needs and tastes as well as their budget. I make sure every dollar they spend is used wisely. My goal is to help my customers feel that their homes are warm and comfortable places they love to return to, hubs of activity and family life, and great spaces where they are proud to entertain friends. I believe beauty doesn't preclude comfort and function. The best return on my customers' investment is lasting satisfaction that brings pleasure to them and to everyone that enters the space. ### Services Provided - Interior Design - Kitchen Design - Bathroom Design - Living Room Design - Bedroom Design - Color Consulting - Furniture Selection - Dining Room Design - Custom Cabinets - Lighting Design - Custom Kitchen Cabinets - Custom Built-ins - Playroom Design - Custom Bathroom Vanities - Custom Furniture - Laundry Room Design - Custom Blinds & Shades - Custom Home Bars - Closet Design - Universal Design - Basement Design - Custom Walk-in Closets - Sunroom Design & Construction - Custom Entertainment Centers - Home Theater Design - Sustainable Design - Wine Cellar Design - Custom Shelving - Custom Pantries - Downsizing - Decluttering - Home Office Design ### Areas Served - Chicago - Naperville - Hinsdale - Barrington - Riverwoods - Lake Geneva ### Typical Job Cost $2,000 - ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Doreen Schweitzer Interiors, Ltd. | | Address | 408 West Jefferson Ave., Naperville, Illinois 60540, United States | | Phone | (630) 717-5668 | | Website | http://DoreenSchweitzerInteriors.com | | Followers on Houzz | 261 | ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Doreen Schweitzer Interiors, Ltd.](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/doreen-schweitzer-interiors-ltd-pfvwus-pf~436258226) - **Website:** http://DoreenSchweitzerInteriors.com - **Phone:** (630) 717-5668 ## Credentials **Certifications & Awards** - Hinsdale Chamber of Commerce - **Best of Houzz:** 8 awards (2014–2020), for Service, Design. ## Reviews **Overall rating: 4.9 out of 5 — 14 reviews** ### Reviews **★★★★★ — Sally Griffen, Sept. 2019** > Doreen was very encouraging and provided expert direction for the re-decorating of our dining room. She helped us with the furniture purchase, layout, drapery re-design, and paint color! I would recommend her services! **★★★★★ — uribemar31, Jan. 2015** > Doreen has an excellent eye for design. She listens to what her clients are looking for, makes great suggestions, and keeps budget in mind. She helped us do all of the window coverings in our new home, and they look amazing! Doreen even followed up with us over a year later when we were having an issue with one of the pleated blinds. **★★★★★ — Carmin Awadzi, Jan. 2015** > Doreen is excellent at listening to what the client wants and giving them options. She understands whom to give a lot of options to, versus those who need a very narrowed focus to make a decision. > > As a custom home builder, I consider her an excellent investment. She takes many tasks, from color consultations to granite selections and kitchen design, off of my plate. Many clients end up utilizing her services for the decorating after their home is complete. **★★★★★ — Anna Blumberg, Jan. 2015** > We are extremely happy with Doreen's work as the interior designer for the new home that we built. Doreen has exceptional taste and a great design eye, and she knew exactly what colors and patterns worked for our home. Doreen had a great sense of our style and did a wonderful job in helping us make design choices. > > Doreen helped us choose almost every design element of our house during construction, including bathroom and kitchen tile, paint colors, cabinet styles/colors, lighting, carpet, flooring and exterior finishes. Doreen was always very responsive, knew the right questions to ask and always got the project done on time. Doreen would even make time for us on extremely short notice because she genuinely cared about every detail of our home project and wanted to make sure that we were happy. At the end of construction, Doreen even helped us pick out window treatments and family room furniture. We are extremely happy with the results and credit Doreen for designing our beautifully decorated home. We will definitely call on Doreen for any future decorating projects! **★★★★★ — Penda Young, Sept. 2014** > Her attention the detail is amazing. I love her Creativity and on a personal/professional level she set the Bar pretty high. Her staff is friendly and efficient as well. She has surrounded herself with a great team. **★★★★★ — maryann McNally, Aug. 2014** > Doreen has transformed our dining room, foyer and family room. She has an incredible sense of style, a long history of working with clients and an extensive portfolio of projects. Most importantly, before any work was started, Doreen spent time with us to understand what we wanted and how we lived. She worked with us throughout the process, asking questions, providing options and most importantly, providing advice on the pros and cons of each option and selection. Her recommendations on contractors was outstanding - every single person that worked at our home was professional, courteous, worked well and delivered excellent results. Doreen spent time with us on color, carpet, furniture and accessory selections. She was always available for any questions. Her recommendations were always amazing and within our redecorating budget. Her sense of style coupled with understanding what we wanted has resulted in an amazing transformation of our living space. **★★★★★ — rster10, Feb. 2013** > I have worked with Doreen Schweitzer Interiors several times over the last 10 years. I was referred to Doreen from my Mother who has used Doreen to decorate her house in Naperville and well as her custom built house in Florida. Doreen has also assisted in decorating both of my sisters homes as well. Our relationship started with her helping decorate my townhome, then to her assisting and choosing all the finishes for my custom home, and finally we are slowly decorating my home on a room to room basis.. > > Doreen is very professional and prompt. I called her 5 weeks before my son's baptism and she was able to pull together window treatments, furniture and accessories in that short period of time. In addition she was present during the window treatment install, as well as hanging photos and paintings. As I am slowly putting the finishing touches on my house I will continue to call Doreen for her support. I truly enjoy working with her and would definitely recommend her services to anyone needing design work. **★★★★★ — shodgman, Feb. 2013** > I have been working with Doreen Schweitzer for over 15 years and 3 homes. I have complete faith in Doreen and the options she provides me. Doreen and I have always worked very well together. She has always respected my ideas and decisions. She is so creative, as well as so knowledgable. Not only has she helped me decorate, she developed a blueprint and designed my 2,500 sq. foot basement. I know quite a few people who have worked with Doreen, and all of them have raved about their experience working with her! Even after 15 years and no major projects on the docket, I still call Doreen to just cover a chair or get her approval on everything I do in my home. She is like family! **★★★★ — User, Feb. 2013** > I have worked with Doreen Schweitzer over many years, mostly on smaller projects, and adding to what I already owned. Her attention to my needs was always exceptional, and her expertise on all areas was invaluable. Her advice and knowledge made it possible for me to make the right choices for the circumstances and make the best use of the money I had to spend. She has a great eye with color and design features and was able to help me make my place truly my own - functional, comfortable, elegant. **★★★★★ — girardot89, Feb. 2013** > Doreen was terrific to work with! She does beautiful work, communicates well all expectations and costs and most importantly is a talented designer. She was able to grasp my own personal style and always brought beautiful choices from which to choose. Very flexible with meeting times as well! Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — daisy11, Feb. 2013** > I have worked with Doreen for years while trying to furnish my home. As you probably know, it's never done, because as you finish one room, the next one needs to be redone. Doreen has been great in helping me tie together my different themes, like oversized furniture. My house truly feels like a home thanks to Doreen. > > I own a townhome, one of 20 identical units. When I refinancied my home in 2010, my home appraised for $40,000 more then an identical unit. I chalked it up to a lucky appraisal. When I refinacied again in 2012, I again appraised for $40,000. This time I say it's because of Doreen Schweitzer Interiors! **★★★★★ — jrsweer, Jan. 2013** > When I moved into my townhome, I engaged Doreen to help me achieve a living space that blended family pieces with contemporary furniture and accents. I wanted a home that combined comfort, simplicity and functionality. > > The scope of the project included paint selection for the entire townhome, furniture, carpet selection, lighting, art and accents. Doreen's knowledge and experience brought focus and consistency to the project. > > She did an outstanding job, and her work has received many compliments from my family and friends. ## Selected projects - [Glenveiw Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/glenveiw-residence-pj-vj~1285430) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 5 - [City High Rise](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/city-high-rise-pj-vj~122656) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 10 - [Naperville Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/naperville-residence-pj-vj~122666) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 4 - [New Naperville Home Looks Like A Vintage Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-naperville-home-looks-like-a-vintage-home-pj-vj~122653) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 1 - [New Old House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-old-house-pj-vj~122670) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 7 - [Western Springs Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/western-springs-home-pj-vj~122642) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 4 - [Georgian Brick Colonial](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/georgian-brick-colonial-pj-vj~122715) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 4 - [Suburban Townhouse](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/suburban-townhouse-pj-vj~122668) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 2 - [Lisle Town Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lisle-town-home-pj-vj~854416) - Location: Lisle, IL - Photos: 1 - [Window Treatments](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/window-treatments-pj-vj~1503843) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 18 - [Accessories](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/accessories-pj-vj~1503809) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 7 - [Wheaton Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wheaton-remodel-pj-vj~2107319) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 6 - [Sunroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunroom-pj-vj~2087406) - Location: Naperville, IL - Photos: 1 - [River Forest Transitional Classic](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/river-forest-transitional-classic-pj-vj~6316299) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 [See all 14 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/doreen-schweitzer-interiors-ltd-pfvwus-pf~436258226) ## Ideabooks - [stephanie](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/142473107/list/stephanie) — 26 ideas - [Farmhouse](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/150822428/list/farmhouse) — 8 ideas - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/120234649/list/wish-list) — 2 ideas - [Dean](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/140380561/list/dean) — 2 ideas - [Jeune](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/126099147/list/jeune) — 13 ideas - [McNally](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/106997721/list/mcnally) — 8 ideas - [Cochran](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/106447658/list/cochran) — 5 ideas - [Sencherey](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/117075717/list/sencherey) — 9 ideas - [Sweer](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/107071455/list/sweer) — 1 idea - [Steph](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/106999448/list/steph) — 5 ideas - [Banquette Seating](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/89799655/list/banquette-seating) — 11 ideas - [SKS+JPG April 2nd, 2016](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/52291843/list/sks-jpg-april-2nd-2016) — 29 ideas - [Dome](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/55879832/list/dome) — 1 idea - [Connemara Marble](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/55621713/list/connemara-marble) — 1 idea - [Vessel Sinks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/37083045/list/vessel-sinks) — 1 idea [See all 15 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/dsignmuse) ## Community Q&A **Q: Draperies** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you tell me about the fabric used on these draperies. These are very unique . Thank you A: Semi open weave casement fabrics are making a comeback. This is what was used as the main fabric. Trim fabrics were coordinated with the bedding. **Q: Where are the chair, ottoman and sofas from?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Chairs and sofa are from Ethan Allen. **Q: Rug** *(in Photo Questions)* Who makes the rug in this photo A: The rug is from Pottery Barn. **Q: A mirror ok over the dresser?** *(in Design Dilemma)* Would a framed mirror work here? A: This mirror is too large. Also very spanish feeling. Not transitional like the Entwine. I am OK with the other curved one. Don't see a name or number to describe it. They call it extra large curved square. **Q: Needing a miracle and a lot if advise** *(in Design Dilemma)* My husband and i just got married I moved out to his house. His house needs to be renovated in a major way. Built as a simple country house on some land in 1965. Hasnt been touched since that day. Pink sculptured carpet. Bad linolieum and all the rest... Small closets poor layout. I just finished teo years of remodeling two other houses. I have run out if steam and ideas. We want to open kitcchen into living room. Update everything freshen the house open it up. We have a beautiful view out over our land. Usually i see a hise and bam! I know what to do... Now its physician heal thyself time .. Ive got nothing... Any ideas we have 100,000 dollars. dont need to enlarge the structure we dont want to move any exterior walls just mive interior walls. Replace windows etc redo kitchen ... Add a masterbath pictures posted.. Thanks may there be a saving angel out there A: My first thought was I think it may be time to hire a designer. I hear a lot of compelling reasons to do so. You seem to have a reasonable budget. Wouldn't it be wise to have a plan and know you are spending $$$$ wisely? **Q: Chair dilemma** *(in Design Dilemma)* I purchased these 2 unique wooden chairs to go in our small office, thinking they would be great. Well, my husband loves them, but I think they make the room look too "woodsy". Haha! Any suggestions? A: Do not paint the bookshelves. Their texture is a good part of the mix in the room. It is more rustic in style. That is a lot of it's appeal. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-22.*
