"We don't just design beautiful interiors, we create happiness. Design and decor should always be a beautiful reflection of you. It all begins at home"

Our Story

Designs By Des Interiors was founded in 2019 by our owner Desireè when she saw a vision of helping busy moms and professionals like herself by creating healthy spaces that would foster growth.

By working through her own “chaos”, she enjoyed created healthy comfortable environments for her growing family through a budget-friendly approach. She met more young professionals who struggled with the same and immediately knew she could bring solutions to their doorsteps. Soon enough, Designs By Des Interiors manifested in the heart of her own home.

Through her professional experience over the years, she has mastered distorting perspectives, brightening spaces, beautifying realities, and optimizing space through different techniques she has implemented. While becoming a homeowner, she has expanded her expertise in DIY (Do-It-Yourself) and taught others healthy home habits that can be passed down for generations to come.

Desireé worked a miracle for me and my family! Being pregnant and under renovation, Desireé took my small and vague wants and turned it to something so beautiful! She was timely, consistent, dependable, and a great communicator! Kept me involved in all the steps which gave me peace of mind! Desireé and team made me feel like I was on a home network show with the reveal! Best of all, we were able to stay within budget and gave me design tips to make the space adaptable to the seasons! Absolutely enjoyed the whole process and would partner with Desiree again for other projects!

This was our phase 2 and just like in phase 1, Desiree made sure she captured all the details that we wanted and the team delivered. The family works really well together that you barely know they are there, even on long days. We loved that they have a family meeting and pray before the start of the day in the space they are working. They have a great work ethic and are very organized. She told me she stepped out of her comfort with some of the Caribbean designs and patterns for our project. She did an awesome job, we love our space! And since we did the install package, her sister's company, Sundaze, included a beautiful gift basket that had something for everyone in my family. I would high...

Desiree and the entire Designs by Des Interiors team were a pleasure to work with! After living thru a renovation with a toddler, we had no energy left for interior design. I shared my vision for our new home with Desiree, and she executed perfectly. I was so happy to hand this project off and trust that it would be done well. I also love a family business. There's a certain level of heart and dedication that DBDI provides that can't be found elsewhere.

I really must express the satisfaction we, I have when I hired Desiree'. Our home REALLY needed the love and care she brought to our spaces. We are empty nester to say the least and over the years we took pieces people gave us due to a home fire we experienced in which we lost major home furniture. Along the many years, other things took precedence over doing anything to our house. When the pandemic hit, it really focused me to look at our home and allow Desiree' when she was starting her business to use our house as her testing grounds. What a fabulous job she did!!!! I use to be embarrassed to have anyone over the house BUT now, our home is so very welcoming. We are not finished, but...

Sharon

We had just moved into our new home and we knew we wanted new furniture for the space, but we felt overwhelmed at the thought of putting a whole room together from top to bottom. We had seen some of Des’s work and was really impressed with her attention to detail and overall design process. After our initial consultation we felt completely comfortable handing over the process and felt such a feeling of relief.
