DH1 (Our Services)
We love a good pop-culture reference here at Designed Happy, so we decided to name our all-inclusive service DH1.  Did it make you think of VH1 (and Behind the Music, Storytellers, and of course, Pop-Up Video)?

Here's another pop culture reference:

The iconic Staples Easy Button.

Now imagine the fun and entertainment of VH1, combined with the ease and accessibility of the Easy Button: that's DH1.

If you have a large-scale home related project (addition, whole-home renovation, new build, kitchen and bathrooms, etc), our DH1 process gives you the best value in the industry.  Below are the individual services, that when bundled together, create DH1.  And while they're great on their own, much like The Beatles, their real power is experienced when they come together.
1. Architecture
Most of our projects start with architecture.  At a very high level, that includes:
  • Space planning
  • Scheme ideation
  • Drawing sets (walk through, permits, construction drawings, etc)
  • Structural documents
  • Technical details 
​

2. Interior design

Interior Design has a huge affect on the architecture.  If you think of architecture as a cake, the interior design is the icing.  Through the use of color and texture, you can drastically change the look and feel of whatever the architecture is.  Here are some (but not all) of the items that we help you select:
  • Tile
  • Countertops
  • Cabinetry
  • Appliances
  • Plumbing fixtures
  • Lighting fixtures
​
3. Custom cabinetry 
We carry a family owned, made-in-the-USA line of cabinets that has been in the custom cabinetry business since 1947.  As partners of theirs, we can offer a full suite of cabinetry, from semi-custom to fully custom. This allows us to tailor the right solution to the right situation (space, timing, budget, etc).

4. Bespoke furniture
The finishing touch of a large home project is new furniture and decor.  Whether it's seating for a family room, a new desk for the study, window treatments, art, area rugs, or a combination of them all, we'll help you find pieces that meet your goals and style.
​
Imagine doing a large project without DH1.  At a minimum, you'd hire an architect, and interior designer, and a cabinet designer.  If the interior designer doesn't help with furniture, you'd hire a second one who does.  That's 3 or 4 different design professionals with different opinions, different timelines, different communications styles, different overhead, and different contracts.  That's a lot for you to manage.

With DH1, we learn about you, your goals, and your style once - typically in the architecture process - and then that carries into design, cabinetry, and furniture, which saves you an enormous amount of time and energy.  With DH1, you will have the easiest and most seamless experience in the industry.

But don't just take our word for it...
