Was a pretty nice showroom inside

I simply love food. In 2009, Friedemann designed my dream kitchen and working in it was an absolute pleasure. In 2014, I moved into a new home and missed my old kitchen more than I could have imagined. This new house was older and much smaller than the first but I knew who to call and what to expect. Friedemann really does put ‘design first’. Yes, the final product is aesthetically beautiful, but as a cook, the space has to be a place you are drawn to. I love my new kitchen and look forward to working in it for many years to come.

Working with Friedemann and his team at Design First was a first class experience. In 2015, we made structural design changes to an existing home. In the initial planning phase, Design First spent quality upfront time with us to truly understand our functional needs and personal design style to solidify and enhance our vision and plan. They helped create and implement a beautiful and functional kitchen/great room design for our home and overall their creativity and detailed eye provided enhancements to various areas of our home. From start to finish, Design First's customer service was impeccable! We would highly recommend them to anyone! Kerri-Lynn and Brian

We cannot be more pleased with our Design First kitchen. At first we tried to figure out a remodel ourselves but gave up trying to incorporate an island into our small space. Design First developed a creative plan to get the feel and functionality we wanted. The resulting kitchen is absolutely stunning and is complimented by everyone who walks in the door. It is now the focal point of our home and a joy to be in. It is also the winner of two design awards — amazing given the stiff competition from million-dollar homes, which ours is not. (A bonus when we go to sell.) The biggest surprise, however, was the cost competitive cabinetry. We priced Design First’s custom cabinets against Home Depot's, and were shocked to discover that the pricing for an equivalent design was nearly the same. Every once in a while you get more than you pay for.

My wife and I decided to renovate our house with the kitchen being the centerpiece of the project. We visited a number of companies but we never walked out of any of the meetings thinking that it was productive. It felt like they were trying to sell their cabinets and other wares instead of the concept. It never felt like they were listening to what we wanted. Friedemann was the first person who didn’t initially talk product but rather ideas and concepts. The first couple meetings we had with him were for the purpose of just getting to know each other. He wanted to get to know us, our likes & dislikes. From these initial conversations, we sat down with him and he’d have the current layout of our house on a table. He would then lay some tracing paper on top of it and would start throwing ideas at us. He’d sketch suggestions on top of our current configuration while continually asking us questions. There were a number of crumpled papers tossed into the garbage. We (I can’t strongly emphasize this point!) finally came up with a new layout. We were completely involved in the concept phase. From that point forward, Friedemann and his team completed the architectural drawings based on our concepts and sketches, managed the project and all of its phases. Even now, they’re making sure that the last few things are completed properly and to the specifications that we had asked for. From concept to finished project, we now have our dream home that we always wanted.
