CLIENTS' KIND WORDS
Parveen A & Cameron C, WA
"Di Barker is a Visionary Interior Designer Redefining Luxury."
"In the realm of interior design, where innovation meets elegance, there are few who possess the visionary prowess and impeccable taste of Di Barker. With our recent project, she has effortlessly transformed our sprawling 7,777 sq ft house, masterfully designed by the renowned architect Stephen Chase, into a work of art that surpasses all expectations.
It is no wonder, after 4 successful projects, that Di has become our family's interior designer of choice, and one the most sought-after interior decorators, not only on the west coast, but around the globe. Collaborating with Di was natural, effortless and FUN. Together, we set out to furnish this architectural masterpiece, turning it into a haven that merges form and function seamlessly. With each step, Di infused life and personality into every corner, ensuring that the house not only reflected our unique style, but also exuded air of sophisticated grandeur.
To accomplish this ambitious task, Di sourced custom furniture from manufacturers across the world. In a remarkable feat, she managed to secure a collaboration with the legendary fashion house Gucci, a rarity in itself, to create one-of-a-kind bespoke dining room chairs, turning our breakfast room into a crown jewel of the home.
Her attention to detail is meticulous and awe-inspiring; from the sourcing and shopping, through to the installation of all the pieces. Di took us on an extraordinary journey through the design districts of Portland, Seattle and Las Vegas, and to the iconic streets and ateliers of Los Angeles and Beverly Hills. She unearthed the most remarkable furnishings and accessories, carefully curating a collection that would perfectly complement the architectural splendor of Stephen Chase's creation.
With a discerning eye for harmony and a profound understanding of our desires, Di orchestrated a symphony of colors, textures, and shapes. From the ethereal play of natural light to the sumptuous allure of rich fabrics, every element in the house was meticulously chosen to evoke a sense of pure luxury that still feels like home. The result? A stunning masterpiece that surpasses all expectations. Di's unparalleled ability to blend contemporary design with timeless elegance, is nothing short of extraordinary; hence her tag line "To Di For".
Di Barker's name has become synonymous with innovation, sophistication, and a keen eye for the extraordinary. She has elevated the art of interior decorating to new heights, captivating the senses and redefining what it means to live in a space that is an exquisite reflection of one's personality.
In the world of interior design, where true visionaries are scarce, Di shines like a beacon of creativity and inspiration. It is without a doubt that Di Barker's name will continue to resonate among the most discerning clientele worldwide. She has earned her place among the elite, and her remarkable talent promises to shape the future of interior design for years to come."

"Di came on board in the early part of construction of our new 8,000 sq ft build. The project was complex and took almost 2 years to complete, but with Di's attention to detail and focused follow through, I felt totally confident throughout the entire process.
Di executed our brief, both indoors as well as outdoors, with passion and precision. Her attention to detail is exemplary, and her sound business ethics ensured our project ran smoothly. Her eye for design is classic and impeccable. Not only does she have an eye for what works well in spaces, she has an endless list of suppliers that are accustom to meeting her exceedingly high expectations.
It is evident that her "vendors" admire, trust and and respect Di. During our project I called Di the "fabric queen" because she knew just what texture, color and pattern would be perfect. As she spoke of the texture, color and pattern I could see it in my mind - then at our next meeting, like magic, the exact fabric we envisioned would be in her hands!
Whether Di is shopping for a $20,000 piece of furniture, or a $20 vase, she somehow always manages to find the best deals and unique treasures. The result is a ToDiFor dream home, that is beautifully balanced and perfect for our family."

"Di came very highly recommended and helped us gut and remodel our entire home. We have since relocated across the country, and when our house went on the market, the feedback was outstanding, on everything from the color choices, to the smallest details... all thanks to Di.
I truly believe it was her talented eye and the functional layout and wonderful feel that she created for us, that helped us gain top dollar in our sale.
Not only was she outstanding, she was a joy to work with!"
DAVID H, OR.
"Di was hired to help us with an office build out, as well as the design, decoration and furnishing of our offices.
We were moving into a white shell and all aspects of the design and execution were left to Di. Our challenge to her was to create an environment that was a functional office, combined with a feeling of warmth and beauty akin to a zen like den.
In short, Di performed magic! She transformed the space, infusing it with beauty and energy, but she also made it super functional enabling my team to feel comfortable and perform at their best."

CANDICE S, OR.
The goal for us was to have a room that had style, but one that we would not be afraid to put our feet on the coffee table - and we now have that.
She's a joy to work with"
"Di is a master of color, but was able to adapt to my love of a calm neutral palette.
