Testimonials

Carol & Steve – Des Moines: We absolutely love our living room!!!!!  Thank you so much for making our living room beautiful–and completely different from what we had before.  This is just the look we were hoping for–thank you for listening to our preferences, likes and dislikes, and then finding the absolute most gorgeous pieces of furniture for us!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

Kati – Urbandale: I ordered a sectional from By Design in July 2010. I appreciated the time my designer took to make sure I saw every option and feel comfortable with my decisions. She was very thorough in making sure the piece would fit in my space and match my new decor. Every time I contacted my designer about my purchase she was very prompt to get back to me and help me with any question I had. We ran into a few snags along the way…but having Bonita on our side made it all a very pain-free process. She made sure to keep us updated on the status and helped us get the couch we wanted. Now that I have it, I LOVE it! It’s perfect for the space and I just couldn’t be happier.

The level of customer service is astounding; I would recommend By Design to anyone based on that alone, with their amazing talent and selection being a great bonus!

Thanks again!

 

 

Cheryl – Urbandale: I love your store and have always been extremely satisfied with your service and the professional assistance I have received. I will require additional items in the future and your store will be my first stop. As you know I’m always on “the hunt” for home furnishings. I look forward to that time.

 

 


Dee Dee Johnston – Urbandale: I am happiest about the way the collection of fabrics and styles of furniture have come together to make our living room so wonderful.


by Design… had it all in one place. Everything was found here and I didn’t have to run around town looking. And I love it all.


 


Barb McIntire – Urbandale (client for over 15 years): The greatest place to decorate your home no matter what your style or budget is. The designers work with you until you get things just right, the way you want your home to look and feel!

 

The best part of having a “by Design house” is the compliments from my friends and family…

 


 

 

 


Susan and Chris Ladd – Des Moines: …We had tried others but had an uncomfortable feeling of being managed – at by Design we experienced being partners with our designer and that was just we wanted.


Laura was able to combine our ideas into a coherent design “philosophy” as well as add her wonderful sense of look, texture, and function to make our rooms the best they could be.


…we would not have been able to do this without Laura’s expertise and our confidence in her talent.


 

 

Jeff and Jenny Doolittle – Algona: We had a wonderful experience. Instead of trying to show us the “best’ or the salespersons favorite we had the chance to find exactly what we were looking to find. Laura learned what we wanted and how to make the room exactly to our wishes.

The coordination of our room was easier than any other store was offering. No one else worked as hard to truly help us find what we were looking for…
